简要总结
Repeated implantation failure (RIF) is determined when failure of implantation occurred during at least three consecutive IVF attempts while at least one high-grade embryo was transferred in each cycle. Several methods have been suggested to improve the implantation rate in RIF patients. One of the most promising methods is local injury to the endometrium. It has been reported that the rates of implantation, clinical pregnancy, and live birth reach more than double in RIF patients with local endometrial injury than patients without it. The population of this study included all infertile couples attending the Royan Institute, who have at least three consecutive cycles of ART failure. Also this study is phase 3 randomized clinical trial. Based on the average menstrual cycle 30-28 days, endometrial and blood samples were collected from two groups of patients on day 21 of luteal phase of their spontaneous menstrual cycle. The intervention, but not the control group underwent prior biopsy treatment in follicular phase on days 8 or/and 11 to 13 of that same cycle but in these days blood sample in both groups were collected. To investigate the impact of local endometrial injury in increasing the rate of pregnancy in ART - treated RIF patients, the investigators will examine the changes of immunological factors involved in the implantation including some cytokines, growth factors ( in serum and endometrial biopsies) and the expression of TLRs and HOX genes ( in endometrial biopsies) obtained from both groups.
详细描述
This study is phase 3 randomized clinical trial that the 20 infertile women with the following conditions will be studied in 2 groups. In the intervention group, Endometrial sampling is obtained twice by Pipelle [one in the follicular phase (during 8-9 or 11- 13 day in the beginning of buserelin cycle) and the last in the luteal phase (during 19-21 or 20-23 day) preceding the embryo transfer cycle preceding the embryo transfer cycle]. In the control group endometrial sampling will be done only in the luteal phase of the cycle preceding the embryo transfer cycle. Blood samples (5- 10 cc) are taken in the both groups twice (one on the 9-8 or 11- 13 day and 19-21 or 20-23 day preceding the embryo transfer cycle).
