About this study

Official title: Intrauterine Administration and Immunophenotyping of Autologous Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells in Patients With Repeated Implantation Failures During Undergoing in Vitro Fertilization Treatment

The purpose of this study is to identify a systemic immunological profile specific to patients with recurrent implantation failures (RIF) or miscarriages (RM) through blood immunophenotyping on the day of ovulation. This study also aims to determine whether the intrauterine administration of 5 million peripheral blood monocluear cells increases implantation and pregnancy rates in patients with RIF and decreases the risk of miscarriages in patients with RM, compared to what has already been published in the scientific literature

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Embryo implantation rate (biochemical pregnancy)

    Measured: Two weeks following embryo transfer or 3 weeks following intrauterine insemination

  2. Clinical pregnancy rate

    Measured: Six to 8 weeks of gestation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells populations (PBMC) distribution at Day 0

    Measured: The day 0 of the patient's ovulation

  2. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells populations distribution at Day 2

    Measured: After 48 hours of culture

  3. Cytokines (LIF, IL-6, IL-10, TNFα, FGF-2, VEGF, IL-8) quantification by ELISA in PBMC culture medium at Day 2

    Measured: After 48 hours of culture

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intrauterine administration of hCG-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells in people with Infertility, Female, run by Fertilys at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2023.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 Canada. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Embryo implantation rate (biochemical pregnancy) (time frame: Two weeks following embryo transfer or 3 weeks following intrauterine insemination). 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 18 Sep 2023.
