Predictive Value of Embryonic Testing (PROV-ET)

January 13, 2022 updated by: Reproductive Medicine Associates of New Jersey

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) in Predicting Embryonic Ploidy and Subsequent Pregnancy Outcomes in in Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Cycles

The primary objective of this study is to determine the predictive value of preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) as a marker of embryonic competence. Secondary objectives are to define the related or independent predictive values of other proposed markers of embryonic and maternal reproductive competence in assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients participating in the study will undergo a routine in vitro fertilization cycle. Trophectoderm biopsy will be performed on all blastocysts however biopsy samples will not be analyzed till the clinical outcome has been determined. The single, morphologically best embryo available will be selected for transfer. All clinical and laboratory care is identical to that of which subjects would receive if they were not participating in the study. This includes all pretreatment screening, in-cycle treatment, embryology procedures, single embryo transfer, pregnancy testing, and pregnancy follow-up (if pregnancy occurs).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 42 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

N/A

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Predictive Value of Aneuploidy Screening
Time Frame: approximately 1 month post clinical outcome
Determine confidence intervals that a euploid embryo will implant, an aneuploid embryo will not implant, and the likelihood of mosaic and segmental aneuploid embryos implanting and describe their outcomes.
approximately 1 month post clinical outcome

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
July 30, 2018

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
