Registry summary

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

Investigation of Natural Cycle In vitro Fertilisation (NC-IVF) treatment with ovulation induction with a nasal GnRH agonist instead of regular NC-IVF treatment with subcutaneous application of hCG with the objective of increasing treatment tolerability and reducing discomfort while being equally successful in terms of embryo transfer rates.

Interventions

  • hCG InjectionDrug
  • Nafarelin nasal sprayDrug

Arms2

  • Active comparator

    Intervention A: hCG injection

    Ovulation induction by subcutaneous injection of 5.000 IU hCG

  • Experimental

    Intervention B: nasal application of Nafarelin

    Ovulation induction by nasal application of 200 microgram Nafarelin

Primary outcomes2

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Treatment tolerability

    Time frame · It will be assessed between Ovulation induction and follicle aspiration. It takes about 3 minutes to complete in the questionnaire

    Registry description

    Treatment tolerability will be measured with the Treatment tolerability subscale of the Fertility Quality of Life (FertiQoL) Treatment questionnaire. The subscale assesses the experience of mental and physical symptoms and disruption in daily life due to treatment. It consists of 4 items. Each item has a set of 5 possible responses, from which patients have to chose the one that most closely reflects how they think and feel.

  2. Discomfort of treatment

    Time frame · It will be assessed between Ovulation induction and follicle aspiration. It takes about 2 minutes to complete in the questionnaire

    Registry description

    The level of discomfort of the treatment encountered by the patients will be measured with 3 Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) questions ranging from 1 - 10 to specifically compare the discomfort imposed by the two treatments.

Secondary outcomes(1)
  1. Embryo transfer rate

    Time frame · It will be documented after the embryo transfer (2-5 days after follicle aspiration)

    Registry description

    Number of embryos transferred in the two groups
