Comparing two sperm preparation methods for IVF with high sperm damage
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man aged 21 to 45.
- Your female partner is aged 21 to 35.
- You are planning to have IVF or ICSI treatment.
- You have high sperm DNA damage (over 20% on a sperm chromatin dispersion test) measured within the last 3 months.
- You have no known genetic or chromosomal problems.
- You have at least 4 mature eggs (MII oocytes) available for the procedure.

This trial compares two ways of preparing sperm to see which leads to healthier embryos. It may help couples where the female partner is 18–34 years old and the male has enough sperm.
This trial compares two ways of preparing sperm for IVF: a new microfluidic chip method versus the standard density-gradient centrifugation. It aims to see which method leads to more successful fertilizations and pregnancies.
This study tests a new way of preparing sperm for in vitro fertilization (IVF) to see if it is safe. It may help couples who are already planning IVF with fresh sperm samples.
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.
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 how much DNA damage in sperm affects the success of a fertility treatment called ICSI (injecting a single sperm directly into an egg). By checking the sperm's DNA before the procedure, the researchers hope to find better ways to help couples achieve a pregnancy.
