What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Implantation rate

    number of gestational sacs observed at ecographic screening divided by the number of embryos transferred

    Measured: Single time-point: at 6 weeks of pregnancy

  2. oocyte and embryo quality

    Classification of the morphological aspects under the optical microscope

    Measured: Single time-point: respectively, 12 days and 15 days after the beginning of Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation

  3. clinical pregnancy

    Positive beta-hCG test after embryo transfer

    Measured: Single time-point: at 14 days from embryo transfer

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Gemellarity

    Multiple gestational sacs observed at ecographic screening

    Measured: Single time-point: at 6 weeks of pregnancy

  2. Abortion rate

    Loss of pregnancy

    Measured: Single time-point: at 6 weeks of pregnancy

  3. Number of FSH IU used for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation

    Ovarian ultrasound investigation and serum estradiol level

    Measured: Single time-point: about 10 days after the beginning of Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Implantation rate (time frame: Single time-point: at 6 weeks of pregnancy). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
