About this study

Official title: IVF\ICSI Outcome in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Compared With Non Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Women

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) occurs in 5% to 10% of all women of reproductive age and 50% of women who present with sub-fertility due to anovulatory infertility . Clear diagnostic criteria for this condition were identified at the consensus meeting of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine .

Read the detailed description

Sub-fertile women with PCOS will usually benefit from conventional treatments, such as lifestyle changes, ovulation induction, or laparoscopic ovarian drilling, but some will ultimately need assisted reproductive techniques, either if they will need or if they wish, such as controlled ovarian hyperstimulation and IVF.

In these cases, controlled ovarian hyperstimulation is closely related to high drug costs, need for daily injections and frequent monitoring, whereas it sometimes results in an increased rate of cycle cancellations and potential life threatening complications due to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and in the retrieval of immature oocytes, leading to poor fertilization and lower cleavage, pregnancy, and live birth rates compared to the conventional IVF cycles ,although this has not been confirmed by other studies .

In addition, ovulation induction is associated with a high risk of multiple pregnancies due to multiple follicular development, so that it has to be individualized and closely monitored.

In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is a common therapeutic modality used in infertile women. IVF has different success rates in different subgroups of patients.

It is necessary to alter the common standard protocols to overcome the potential obstacles in some populations of patients and achieve the best results . Obesity with PCOS status of patient may decrease the fertilization rate and clinical pregnancy chance after IVF (probably by decreasing the oocyte count and increasing the gonadotropin resistance); however, the results of different studies are conflicting

What participants receive

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

  • the pregnancy rate at IVF / ICSI cyclesProcedure or surgery

    To study and compare other parameters between the PCOS and non PCOS group, and inside the PCOS group itself eg ; patients with PCOS who have ovarian drilling and non drilling PCOS

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing the pregnancy rate at IVF / ICSI cycles in people with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) of Bilateral Ovaries, run by Egymedicalpedia 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 3 inclusion and 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Islam Mahfouz, MSC (01118434861, islam.ibrahim@med.aun.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pregnancy rate (time frame: From baseline to 15 days after the embryo transfere day.). 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 19 Oct 2023.
