Effects of Clomiphene Citrate Ovulation Induction on Frozen Embryo

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Clomiphene citrate has been widely used for treatment of infertility for decades. Although its anti-estrogenic effects leads to low pregnancy rate, clomiphene citrate is still a first-line treatment for ovulation induction because of its simple usage, low prices, no injection and low risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Clomiphene citrate shows high affinity with estrogen receptor, which inhibits endometrial proliferation, inevitably leads to a decline in endometrial receptivity, thus affecting the success rate of IVF.

In that case, use clomiphene citrate for ovulation induction is lost more than gained based on fresh embryo transfer. But recently, some researchers have proposed to extend the time from ovulation induction to embryo transfer, and the increased level of estradiol can replace clomiphene citrate to combine with the receptor, so that the uterine environment is more conducive to pregnancy. Therefore, use clomiphene citrate based on vitrification of embryo maybe a good way for treatment of infertility.

At present, using frozen embryo transplantation after ovulation induction by clomiphene citrate is a common treatment, but few research has mentioned the best time for embryo implantation. The investigators research is to find the most appropriate time for frozen embryo implantation after using clomiphene citrate for ovulation induction.

Clinical Trial Description

This study receives patients from 2017 August to 2018 June who undergo ART treatment at Shanghai Jiai Genetics & IVF Institute and taken either CC or GnRH antagonist protocol(control group) for ovulation induction.

The investigators will record every patients' age, BMI, serum E2, P, LH level, infertility factors and pregnancy outcomes, counted the implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate, and then used SPSS Software x2 test for statistical analysis, the significance was set at p＜0.05.The investigators will also make a correlation analysis about the serum hormone level and pregnancy outcomes. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
