Testing PKB171 for mild male infertility in couples
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a new oral medication (PKB171) compared to a placebo for couples who have mild male infertility and have not tried IVF/ICSI before. The goal is to see if PKB171 can help them conceive naturally.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You and your partner have been unable to conceive for at least 6 months but less than 2 years.
- Women must be between 18 and 38 years old with regular cycles and normal egg reserve.
- Men must be between 18 and 50 years old and have mild sperm issues (low mobility, but enough sperm count).
- You haven’t had any prior fertility treatments like IVF or ICSI.
- Both partners must have a BMI between 18 and 32 and no serious health conditions (like uncontrolled infections, cancer, heart problems, or bleeding disorders).

This trial tests whether a new hormone medication called leflutrozole can help men with azoospermia (no sperm in semen) produce sperm again. The medication works by adjusting hormone levels to stimulate sperm production.
This study tests an experimental medicine called MediReg® for men with severe infertility who have not been able to conceive. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can improve sperm quality, possibly offering a new option for men who have not had success with other treatments.
This study tests a new system (BAIBYS) to see if it’s safe and effective for ICSI—a treatment where a single sperm is injected into an egg. It’s for couples dealing with male infertility who have a sperm problem and want to improve their chances of success.
This study tests if an herbal supplement can improve sperm health in men with infertility. If you have low sperm count or poor sperm movement, this trial may help find a natural option to improve your chances of fathering a child.
This trial looks at whether gut bacteria (microbiome) and lifestyle factors are linked to poor sperm production or sperm quality. You may be asked for stool, urine, and blood samples and to complete questionnaires about diet and habits to help researchers understand possible connections.
This study tests two medicines—isotretinoin and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)—to see if they can improve sperm production in men with low sperm counts or no sperm due to certain causes. It might help if you haven't responded to other treatments before.
