    The Influence of Adjuvant Medical Treatment of Peritoneal Endometriosis on the Outcome of IVF. A Prospective Randomized Analysis.

    NCT01682642

    Mar 2012 to Oct 2014

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

In this study of endometriosis patients we compare a common treatment of surgical therapy and medical treatment for 3 months (Zoladex) with patients receiving only surgical therapy. In both cases they immediately start In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment.

Interventions

  • ZoladexDrug

Arms2

  • Active comparator

    Zoladex

    After surgical vaporization of endometriosis patients are treated with Zoladex for 3 months.

  • No intervention

    vaporization only

    Surgical vaporization of the endometriosis is done and patients start IVF without additional treatment.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Number of Metaphase II Cells (MII)

    Time frame · 3 weeks

    Registry description

    number of MII cells retrieved

Secondary outcomes(5)
  1. Pregnancy Rate

    Time frame · 12 weeks

    Registry description

    The number of ongoing pregnancies obtained which still is the most important issue for the patients.

  2. Good Embryo Quality

    Time frame · 3 days after oocyte retrieval

    Registry description

    The development of the embryo at the time of transfer on day 3. Good quality is defined by more than 7 cells and less then 20% fragmentation on day 3.

  3. Number of Pro Nuclear Cell (2PN)

    Time frame · 1 day after oocyte retrieval

    Registry description

    number of 2PN

  4. Number of Cryopreserved Embryos

    Time frame · 1 week after oocyte retrieval

    Registry description

    number of blastocytes that can be cryopreserved

  5. Total Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Dose

    Time frame · 3 weeks

    Registry description

    total dose of FSH needed at the end of stimulation
