简要总结
This is a Single-centre pilot study, randomized, controlled open-label trial with the aim to assess the clinical pregnancy rate and the early pregnancy loss rate between two different schemas for frozen embryo transfer cycles stimulated with HRT. Furthermore, the investigators would like to evaluate the predictivity of pregnancy and early miscarriage by looking at the endocrinological profile (estradiol and progesterone levels) within the endometrial preparation and the day of embryo transfer (ET).
详细描述
Women planned for a FET-HRT will be asked to do a blood test day 1 of their cycle in order to evaluate the endocrine profile; those with basal hormonal values will receive 6 mg oral estradiol daily beginning from day 1 of their cycle. On day 7 of the treatment a blood test for the serum hormone evaluation and an ultrasound will be planned in order to evaluate the endometrium thickness; those who will meet the criteria (endometrium thickness ≥7mm) will be randomized. In the 7 days estradiol (E2) arm (A) the study coordinator will plan the FET after 6 days of progesterone supplementation (13 days of E2 intake). In the 14 days E2 arm (B) the team will plan on day 14 of treatment with E2 the serum hormone evaluation and an ultrasound in order to evaluate the endometrium thickness, consequently the FET will be planned after 6 days of progesterone supplementation (after 14 days of E2 intake). Furthermore, all the patients included in the study will undergo a blood test on the day of the transfer for the evaluation of the hormones level. For the assessment of the pregnancy a first blood test will take place 12 days after the ET and a blood test with an ultrasound will take place at 7 weeks for the evaluation of the clinical pregnancy.

结局指标
主要结局
Clinical Pregnancy Rate
时间窗: 2 years
The number of clinical pregnancies expressed per 100 initiated cycles, aspiration cycles or embryo transfer cycles. When clinical pregnancy rates are recorded, the denominator (initiated, aspirated or embryo transfer cycles) must be specified.
Miscarriage rate
时间窗: 2 years
The spontaneous loss of an intra-uterine pregnancy prior to 22 completed weeks of gestational age, over the number of transferred embryos.
Live Birth Rate
时间窗: 4 years
The number of deliveries that resulted in at least one live birth, expressed per 100 cycle attempts. In the case of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) interventions, they can be initiated cycles, insemination, aspiration cycles or embryo transfer cycles. When delivery rates are given, the denominator (initiated, inseminated, aspirated or embryo transfer cycles) must be specified.
次要结局
- biochemical pregnancy(2 years)
- early pregnancy loss(2 years)
- positive hCG tests(2 years)
