Study DNA from leftover IVF lab samples
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at DNA found in leftover IVF lab materials to see if it can provide useful information during embryo screening. You might benefit indirectly by helping researchers test a less wasteful way to learn about embryos during IVF with chromosomal screening.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman currently doing an IVF cycle at Colorado Center for Reproductive Medicine.
- Your IVF cycle includes Comprehensive Chromosomal Screening (CCS) of the embryos.
- You are available during your IVF process so the study can use the discarded lab materials from your cycle.

This study looks at biomaterials that are normally thrown away during IVF treatment to see what they can teach us about the success of the treatment cycle. If you are getting IVF at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, you may be able to help by letting researchers study these discarded materials.
This study creates new lab cell lines from donated human embryos to support future clinical research. It may help researchers develop better treatments by starting from donated embryos that are carefully screened and consented.
This study creates human stem cell lines from embryos left over after IVF. It may help researchers learn about stem cells, but you must agree to give consent and not use these specific embryos for building your family.
This study compares two ways of preparing sperm for IVF (a microfluidic chip versus a centrifuge method). It aims to see which method leads to more genetically normal embryos (euploid) when doing PGT (pre-implantation genetic testing).
This study looks at whether a hormone level measured inside the fluid around eggs (follicular fluid) can predict whether embryos have the correct number of chromosomes. It may help clinics choose which embryos are more likely to be healthy.
This study looks at a DNA-testing approach that uses material from an embryo’s environment to help screen embryos during IVF. You might be able to participate if you’re already planning IVF and choosing this specific LifeView testing.
