Choosing the best blastocyst for IVF transfer
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to pick the best single embryo for transfer during IVF: using a new non-invasive (without touching the embryo) test versus the standard grading by how the embryo looks under a microscope. It aims to improve the chance of a successful pregnancy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 35 to 43 years old, or you have had two or more early pregnancy losses.
- Your eggs were fertilized using regular IVF (not ICSI).
- You are willing to let all your embryos develop for 5-6 days (to the blastocyst stage) in the lab before freezing.
- You agree to freeze then transfer one blastocyst at a time in a later cycle.
- You have at least two good-quality blastocysts that form by day 5 or 6.

This study looks at whether checking the fluid around embryos for genetic problems can help predict success in IVF. It may help doctors choose the best embryo to transfer.
This study compares different methods for transferring frozen embryos into the uterus during IVF. It aims to find the best technique to improve pregnancy chances.
This trial compares transferring embryos at the cleavage stage (day 3) versus the blastocyst stage (day 5) for women who have few embryos during an IVF cycle. It may help determine which stage gives the best chance of pregnancy for people with limited embryos.
This study compares a new undisturbed embryo culture system to the standard method for growing embryos in IVF or ICSI. It aims to see if keeping embryos in a single, undisturbed culture dish improves how many reach the blastocyst stage for transfer.
This study looks at embryos that were not used in IVF treatment (called discarded blastocysts) to better understand what makes them develop. It may help future patients by improving how embryos are chosen.
This study tests whether artificial intelligence can better identify which embryos are most likely to result in a successful pregnancy during fertility treatment. Researchers will use an AI system to analyze embryo images on days 5–7 of development to help doctors choose the best embryo to transfer.
