Filter by:Utilising a novel pre-surgical grading system to class cases of asherman syndrome into 3 groups based on expected difficulty of surgery and potential prognostic outcomes.
Normal endometrial repair occurs without scar formation; however, in some women, these normal repair mechanisms are aberrant, resulting in intrauterine adhesion (IUA) formation. Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is one of the common causes of secondary infertility, accounting for approximately 8% of disease etiologies while the pathogenesis of IUA remains unclear. Organoids derived from IUA endometrium can be used as excellent models to study IUA due to genetically stable passage and the characteristics of simulating the microenvironment of the uterine cavity.
Evaluate the formation of adhesions after third-generation endometrial ablation, with and without the intrauterine adhesion barrier.
This study will assess the use of autologous bone marrow stem cells mobilization using 1,1'-[1,4-phenylenebis-(methylene)]-bis-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (PLERIXAFOR) as an effective medical therapy for the treatment of Asherman's Syndrome (AS), Atrophic Endometrium (AE) and Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF).
In the last years, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a promising alternative to treat endometrial pathologies affecting the endometrial lining. Different studies have tried this therapeutic approach in human patient, but results are not conclusive at all. Also, in the last years, different studies have suggested the umbilical cord blood has a stronger reservoir of growth factors and other pro-regenerative molecules than the adult peripheral blood. That is the reason why the present study aims to evaluate if using platelet-rich plasma obtained from umbilical cord blood is able to increase endometrial thickness and prepare the endometrium for an embryo transference. However, due to the novelty of this approach, the investigators have considered to include a 'proof of concept' group (women with premature ovarian insufficiency) to obtain a deeper understanding of the clinical value of this blood derivative.
PREG2 is a randomized controlled trial that aims to evaluate efficacy in preventing intrauterine adhesion recurrence after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis of a novel intrauterine barrier film named Womed Leaf
Only patients who sign an informed consent will be included. Patients after a miscarriage in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy who need to perform an instrumental revision of the uterine cavity (RCUI, revisio cavi uteri instrumentalis) will be randomized into two groups. In the first group, RCUI will be performed according to current standards. In the second group, an anti-adhesive preparation with hyaluronic acid (Hyalobarrier gel Endo) will be applied to the uterine cavity at the end of the RCUI procedure. Eight to twelve weeks after the operation, the occurrence of adhesions will be evaluated by ultrasound examination and diagnostic hysteroscopy (if adhesions will be detected, they will be disrupted). The study will also include the completion of a questionnaire in terms of the frequency and strength of the menstrual cycle. The presence of adhesions will be assessed according to The American Fertility Society (AFS).
Intrauterine platelet rich plasma will be injected in the endometrial region via the vaginal route after the cessation of menstrual period. The endometrial thickness will be assessed under ultrasound and hormone replacement will be started. As the endometrial thickness reaches adequate thickness during ultrasound follow-up, embryo transfer will be performed.
The endometrium is a tissue with high capacity of renewal ("self-renewal"). This process is regulated by stem cells. Recent studies have shown that bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMDSCs) contribute to tissues and organs regeneration, including the murine and human endometrium. Additionally, BMDSCs have the ability to differentiate into functional endometrial and stromal epithelial cells. Asherman's Syndrome (AS) also referred to as intrauterine adhesions (AIU), is an acquired uterine condition characterized by the formation of adhesions inside the uterus. In many cases the front and back walls of the uterus stick to one another. Most patients with AS have menstrual abnormalities, pelvic pain, recurrent miscarriage, and infertility, and psychological disorders. Currently, hysteroscopy is considered the gold standard of methods for the diagnosis of intrauterine adhesions. However, it has a limited capacity for treatment, especially in moderate or severe cases in which permanent infertility can occur. For the first time, our investigation group demonstrated the possibility of regenerating endometrial tissue through bone marrow-derived stem cells (Santamaria et al., 2016). This project aims to determine the safety, tolerability and biodistribution of IGX1 (CD133+ cells selected after mobilization and collection of peripheral blood progenitor cells - CPSP) afte rthe intraarterial injection in rats with induced Asherman's Syndrome. Therefore, the focus of this project is to satisfy the preclinical requirements set out by the the AEMPS (Agencia Española de Medicamentos y Productos Sanitarios) in relation to the Phase I/II clinical trial "Phase I-II clinical trial of advanced, prospective, open, non-randomized, uncontrolled (before-after study), explanatory, multicentre cell therapy , national, intervention with a single treatment group in patients of reproductive age with gestational desire diagnosed with Asherman's Syndrome grade II, III or IV, treated by autologous non-expanded bone marrow stem/progenitor cells selected (IGX1)" (IGX1-ENT-XS-16-01)
Asherman syndrome, which occurs after trauma to the basalis layer of the endometrium.It seems that the role of postoperative estrogen therapy in the prevention of recurrence of IU adhesions is still controversial. To investigate if estrogen therapy can prevent adhesion reformation after adhesiolysis. After the completion of hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, recruited patients will be randomized to one of the two treatment groups by computer-generated numbers: having estrogen after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis three months, all patients in this group will be treated with hormone therapy for 3 cycles; each cycle consists of estradiol 4mg per day for 21 days with addition of progestogen in the form of dydrogesterone 10mg per day for the last 7 days; and the control group without estrogen treatment. A second-look hysteroscopy and ultrasound assessment of the endometrium will be carried out 4 weeks after the surgery, and again at 8 weeks after the surgery.
