Comparing two embryo-testing methods for women with PCOS
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares a new way of testing embryos (PIMS) with the standard method (PGT-A) for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who are doing IVF. The goal is to see which method helps more women have a successful pregnancy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 20 to 40 with PCOS, as diagnosed by the 2018 PCOS guidelines.
- You plan to have your first or second IVF/ICSI/PGT-A treatment cycle.
- You have at least two embryos that are good quality (scores of 4BC/4CB or better) on day 5 of growth.
- All your embryos will be grown to the blastocyst stage, biopsied, and frozen one by one.
- You agree to have only one embryo thawed and transferred at a time.
- You are willing to sign a consent form to participate.

This trial is for IVF patients who need genetic testing (PGT-A) before embryo transfer. It compares two different hormone protocols (PPOS and GnRH antagonists) used to stimulate egg growth and collection in a double stimulation cycle.
This study tests a way to mature eggs outside the body for women with PCOS or high ovarian reserve. It might help avoid side effects from fertility medications.
This study compares two ways of preparing sperm for IVF when you are also doing genetic testing of embryos (PGT-A). One method uses a microfluidic chip, and the other is the standard spinning technique. The goal is to see which method leads to better embryo development.
This study compares two ways to choose which single blastocyst (a 5-6 day old embryo) to transfer after IVF. It looks at a noninvasive test versus the usual method of selecting by appearance, and aims to improve the chances of a successful pregnancy.
This Phase 3 study compares two hormone/medication schedules to help women with PCOS grow embryos, then checks embryo genetic status using PGT-A. It may help determine which protocol leads to better “euploid” (chromosome-normal) blastocysts for transfer.
This trial compares two fertility treatments for women with PCOS: in vitro maturation (IVM) with fresh embryo transfer versus standard IVF with frozen embryo transfer. It aims to find which approach leads to better outcomes.
