Clinical Trial Summary
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and reproductive disorder in which
insulin resistance (IR) is proposed as a key pathophysiological feature of the disease's
symptoms and consequences. Diabetes and rediabetes, a significant consequence of IR, are
related to a higher risk of diabetes mellitus, future cardiovascular events, and adverse
pregnancy outcomes.
Description:
All Vietnamese infertile women with PCOS, according to the Rotterdam criteria present at
IVFMD, will be enrolled in the study. Phenotypes of PCOS are classified into A, B, C, and D
due to hyperandrogenism (HA), ovulatory dysfunction (OD), and polycystic ovarian morphology
(PCOM)
- A: HA + OD + PCOM
- B: HA + OD
- C: HA + PCOM
- D: OD + PCOM
All patients enrolled in this study will have:
- Standard anthropometric data will be done by professional and experienced physicians
according to standard study protocol: Weight, height, waist and hip circumference,
waist-to-hip ratio, and BMI calculated, followed by World Health Organization guidelines
for Asian women. Trained midwives evaluated hirsutism and acanthosis nigricans, and fat
mass was measured in the abdomen area using specific calipers (Accu-Measure®).
- Gynecologic ultrasound scan
- Blood tests:
A fasting blood sample was obtained. Luteinizing hormone (LH) (with a coefficient of
variation [CV] 2.3%), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (CV 3.5%), estradiol (CV 2.7%),
progesterone (CV: 6.2%), prolactin (CV: 5.2%), sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) (CV 5.6%),
total testosterone (CV 8.4%) were measured by Elesys technique, Cobas e411 system. FAI was
calculated using the formula: FAI = serum testosterone in nmol/L/serum SHBG in nmol/L × 100.
Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) (CV 6.0%), free thyroxin (fT4) (CV 5.05%) were measured by
Access 2 immunoassay system. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (CV 2.4%),
low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (CV 2.0%), and triglyceride (CV 1.76%) were
measured by Beckman Coulter AU480 system. Fasting serum insulin (CV 2.8%) was measured by
Elesys technique, Cobas e411 system. The Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance
Index (HOMA-IR) was used to estimate insulin sensitivity. HOMA-IR was calculated as FPG in
mmol/L × fasting insulin in mIU/mL/22.5 (Matthews et al., 1985). A 2 mL blood sample was
withdrawn and stored in a vacutainer with nature oxalate and EDTA additive.
- Glucose tests:
+ After a fast of ≥4 hours, FPG (CV 0.9%) was measured by Beckman Coulter AU480 analyzer, and
HbA1c (CV 1.00%) were measured by Tosoh HLC-723GX analyzer; participants who had not fasted
for ≥4 hours were asked to return for measurement of FPG the next day.
Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus will be made when fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL (7 nmol/L) or
HbA1C ≥6.5% (48 mmol/mol) (American Diabetes Association, 2018). When glucose ≥126 mg/dL (7
nmol/L) or HbA1C ≥6.5% (48 mmol/mol) (American Diabetes Association, 2018).
- Oral glucose tolerance test with 75 g glucose (75 g OGTT) will be performed on those
with normal fasting glucose and HbA1C levels. Women will be recommended to have a normal
diet for three days and overnight fasting for at least 8 hours. The blood withdrawal
will be performed twice: (i) fasting and (2i) 2 hours after solution administration. The
volume of blood for each test is 2 ml. Impaired glucose tolerance will be diagnosed when
two-hour glucose levels of 140 to 199 mg/dL (7.8 to 11.0 mmol/l) (American Diabetes
Association, 2018).
- Hyperandrogenism:
- Clinical hyperandrogenism: Hirsutism using the modified Ferriman Gallwey score (mFG) and
severe acne
- Biochemical hyperandrogenism: free testosterone (normal range below 2,53nmol/ml), free
testosterone index, SHBG
