Double Pick up in Poor Prognosis Women

Short name DUOPICK

This trial does not test a peptide that PepBank tracks.

  • Names hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), does not test it. It appears in the description.

Registry summary

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

The purpose of this randomized pilot study is to compare the efficacy of double oocyte retrieval vs. conventional antagonist ovarian stimulation protocol in poor prognosis patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

Double Pick up GroupCFA-double pick up: In the study group, 225 IU of rFSH will continue after the first oocyte retrieval (OR). Antagonist administration will be initiated when at least one follicle measuring ≥14 mm will be present in the ultrasound. If one or more follicles ≥17 mm are observed, patients will undergo a second triggering with hCG 5000 IU and a second OR will be performed. In case of patients with no follicular development following 10 additional days of rFSH post-OR0 / 240 / 240 / 24
