About this study

This retrospective cohort study aims to investigate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rh-GH) on the euploid status of preimplantation blastocysts in AMA patients.

Infertile patients aged 38-46 years old were recruited for study if they fulfill the inclusion criteria and do not have the exclusion criteria.

Treatment group: Women received growth hormone (GH) supplement during antagonist protocol for ovarian stimulation.

Control group: Women received antagonist protocol for ovarian stimulation. The primary outcome is the euploidy rate of blastocysts per stimulation cycle and per testing cycle.

Being tested
Growth hormone, GnRH antagonist

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Growth hormoneDrug

    Growth hormone is supplemented during the ovarian stimulation till the day of trigger

  • GnRH antagonistDrug

    GnRH antagonist protocol for ovarian stimulation

Control groupActive comparatorNo Growth Hormone supplement, GnRH antagonist protocol for ovarian stimulation
Receives: Drug: GnRH antagonist

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of cycles which obtained euploid blastocysts

    Number of cycles with at least 1 euploid blastocyst divided by the total number of stimulation cycles in a cohort

    Measured: 1 month after oocyte retrieval

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Euploid blastocyst rate per cohort

    Total number of euploid blastocyst in a cohort/total number of biopsied embryos in the same cohort

    Measured: 1 month after oocyte retrieval

  2. Euploidy rate per cycle

    Euploidy rate of blastocysts, calculated per stimulation cycle and per testing cycle

    Measured: 1 month after oocyte retrieval

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Growth hormone and GnRH antagonist in people with Growth Hormone and Advanced Maternal Age, run by ShangHai Ji Ai Genetics & IVF Institute at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Proportion of cycles which obtained euploid blastocysts (time frame: 1 month after oocyte retrieval). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05574894, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2023.
