Efficacy of Endocell® vs Conventional Medium in the Treatment of Infertility

February 3, 2010 updated by: Laboratoires Genévrier

Multicentre, Randomised, Controlled Clinical Study on the Efficacy in Terms of Clinical Pregnancy Rate of 1 Embryo Transfer at Day 5 After Co-culture on Autologous Endometrial Cells(ENDOCELL®) Versus 1 Embryo Transfer at Day 3 After Culture on Conventional Medium.

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of a single embryo transfer at blastocyst stage (Day 5) after co-culture on Autologous Endometrial Cell Culture (AECC) versus transfer of a single embryo at Day 3 after culture in conventional medium. Efficacy will be assessed in terms of clinical pregnancy rate 5 to 8 weeks after embryo transfer.
