Correlation of Oxidative Stress and Oocyte Quality in Fertility Preservation (Ooxyd)

March 17, 2025 updated by: Clinique Ovo

Whether it is for oncology or personal reasons, fertility preservation allows participants to preserve their oocytes (eggs) at their current age and condition for a better chance of having a baby in the future.

In order to proceed with fertility preservation, participants will need to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF), which is standard practice, and take stimulation medication to stimulate production of more follicles.

The combination of both Rekovelle and Menopur for fertility preservation may increase ovarian response to stimulation and increase the number of oocytes retrieved to give better chances of embryos once the oocytes will be fertilized.

The goal in this study is to understand the effect of oxydative stress on the quality of oocytes.

For the purpose of the study and to evaluate this connection, serum levels of oxidative stress and cf-DNA in your blood will be measured.

Oocyte quality will also be assessed with Magenta, a prediction tool utilizing artificial intelligence (AI). This method is non-invasive and has no risks on the oocytes.

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
179

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 37 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Other: Oncology preservation
Other: Oxidative stress
Oxidative stress occurs as soon as there is an imbalance between pro- / antioxidants, and molecules exhibiting antioxidant properties are at the forefront of fertility treatment and preservation. Oxidated stress will be measured by blood sample
Other: cf-DNA
cfDNA, extracted from blood plasma in samples collected will uncover the potential role of cfDNA as a stress signal released in response to oxidative stress
Other: MAGENTA AI
Non-invasive technique analyzing images of oocytes that can differentiate oocytes with a higher reproductive potential reflective of their quality

What is the study measuring?

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.
