About this study

Official title: Dydrogesterone-Primed Ovarian Stimulation Protocol Versus Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Antagonist Protocol in Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Undergoing Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection

GnRH antagonist protocol is currently a good strategy for controlled ovarian stimulation in women with PCOS undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles. Finding a protocol that can be a better alternative will help in improving the success rate of IVF/ICSI cycles

Read the detailed description

Progesterone has potent restraint on hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis. It acts on unidentified hypothalamic pulse oscillator neurons. In turn, it acts on gonadotropins releasing hormone (GnRH) secreting neurons leading to inhibition of GnRH secretion. This results in inhibition of both luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion from anterior pituitary. The effect of progesterone appears to decrease GnRH pulse frequency which results in slowing down LH pulse frequency and reducing LH plasma concentrations

Study groups in NCT05751681
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group (A)Experimentalwill be subjected to progestin primed ovarian stimulation protocol Women in group (A), will be prescribed 20 mg oral dose of dydrogesterone (Duphaston, Abbott) from the 2nd day of the cycle and continued until the trigger day. Transvaginal follicular monitoring will be done for all patients starting the 6th day of cycle.
Receives: Other: progestin primed ovarian stimulation protocol; Drug: dydrogesterone (Duphaston, Abbott)
group (B)Active comparatorGonadotropin Releasing Hormone Antagonist Protocol when the size of dominant follicles reaches 12-13 mm, 0.25 mg of cetrotide (Merck-Serono Germany) will be injected subcutaneously daily and continued until the day of trigger shot.
Receives: Other: progestin primed ovarian stimulation protocol; Drug: Cetrotide

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy (Number of MII oocytes retrieved)

    this outcome means to measure Percentage (number) of MII oocytes retrieved During our study

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Efficacy (Maturation index)

    Maturation index will be calculated: Rate of metaphase-II oocytes (MII) to total oocytes

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing progestin primed ovarian stimulation protocol, dydrogesterone (Duphaston, Abbott) and Cetrotide in people with Ovary Cyst and Fertility Issues, run by Zagazig University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 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 Egypt. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact mostafa fahmy, mcs (01065644434, mafahmy21@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy (Number of MII oocytes retrieved) (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Mar 2023.
