Comparing two sperm selection methods for IVF
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two advanced sperm-selection methods used during IVF to see which gives better results. It may help couples with male infertility, especially when sperm DNA damage is high.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a woman between 20 and 39 years old with a body mass index (BMI) between 19 and 35.
- Your hormone levels must be in a normal range, including prolactin, progesterone, and AMH (at least 1.5 ng/mL).
- You must have been trying to conceive for at least 2 years (with or without prior pregnancy).
- You must not have any other medical or surgical conditions, including endometriosis, thyroid disorders, or diabetes.
- You must be planning a frozen embryo transfer on day 5, with a uterine lining thickness between 8 and 14 mm on transfer day.
- Your male partner must have sperm with at least 1 million motile sperm per mL and a high DNA fragmentation index (above 35%).

This trial tests an artificial intelligence system that helps select the best sperm for use during IVF with ICSI. The goal is to see if this improves fertilization, embryo development, and reduces early pregnancy loss.
This trial tests a computer program that helps embryologists pick the best sperm for ICSI (a fertility treatment where sperm is injected into an egg). It may improve the chances of a successful pregnancy for women over 35 or those using donor eggs.
This trial tests two ways of preparing sperm for IVF. One method uses a special device, and the other uses a standard lab technique. The goal is to see if the device works as well as the standard method for men with high sperm DNA damage.
This study compares different insemination methods when using frozen donor sperm during IVF. It aims to find the best technique to help more eggs get fertilized.
This study compares two ways of creating embryos during IVF: standard IVF versus a method called ICSI, where a single sperm is injected directly into the egg. It's for couples who haven't been able to conceive and haven't found a cause—this trial helps figure out which method works better for them.
This trial tests a new device called the BAIBYS System, which may help select the best sperm for ICSI (a procedure where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg during IVF). The goal is to see if it is safe and improves the chance of a successful pregnancy.
