Clinical Trial Summary

The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of an innovative personalized management strategy adapted to the level of environmental risk, in a population of infertile couples, eligible for assisted reproductive treatment (ART) by intraconjugal In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/ Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Consultation of the couple at the ARTcenter : - Prescriptions of the standard assessment of infertility to the couples eligible for ART. - Inclusion and randomization (arm A interventional vs arm B standard management) of the couples having signed the consent. - Information for each patient on a standardized online self questionnaire on environmental exposures, physical activity and stress.

Description:

- Arm A (interventional): analysis of the responses to the self-administered questionnaires with, if necessary, protocol interview concerning environmental and occupational factors, which will determine the consultations to be planned for their follow-up by the platform. - support of couples by the multidisciplinary platform with the help of the downloaded application: Meeting by videoconsultation with professionals adapted to the exposures highlighted by the questionnaires. Multidisciplinary Synthesis (MS): Synthesis of the first consultations and the results of the self-questionnaires by the multidisciplinary team. Determination of preventive and corrective measures, specific advice, specialized follow-up if necessary. Presentation to patients of the personalized measures decided in MS: information on the personalized management proposed (follow-up addictologist, dietician, psychologist, occupational doctor), personalized advice sheets. Couples who do not require personalized measures will continue their treatment with prevention advice adapted to their profession and their environment. Transmission of the minutes of the MS to the clinician in charge of the couple. - Arm B (standard management): care path according to the usual modalities of the ART center (indications, network of practitioners, monitoring and information tools). If necessary, distribution by the clinician of information leaflets on addictions, dietetics + distribution of a general information leaflet on reprotoxic factors. In both arms: embryology consultation before ART: information on the planned ART. Information on the online self-assessment questionnaire for assessing reprotoxic exposures, assessing stress, physical activity, and quality of life during infertility. In centers with a biological resource center Germethèque, hair sampling from the 2 members of the couple. First attempt of IVF/ICSI, in both arms, followed for 24 months with every 6 months: information of the online self-administered questionnaire of assessment of reprotoxic exposures, assessment of stress, physical activity, quality of life in infertility course. At 12 months and 24 months: hair sampling from both members of the couple (in Germethèque centers only). - In arm A during the 24 months of follow-up: active support of corrective measures implemented with couples by the platform, with the help of the application (weight loss goals, changes in habits, physical activity, decreased or stopped toxics). Continuation of specialized follow-up if necessary, in videoconsultation. At the end of the study: a sample of about twenty couples in each arm will be the subject of a semi-directed interview aimed at qualitatively determining the brakes and levers to their adherence to the environmental health advice received during their management in ART. Medical-economic analysis: a cost-effectiveness analysis and a budget impact analysis will be carried out by the Epidemiology and Health Economics Department.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Clinical live birth rate	Proportion of couples who obtained at least one live birth during the 24 months of assisted reproductive treatment (ART) treatment (birth(s) obtained after In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injectionc (ICSI), frozen embryo transfer (FET) from IVF/ICSI, or spontaneous pregnancy obtained between ART treatments), in Arm A versus arm B.	24 months
Secondary	Clinical pregnancy rate	Proportion of couples who achieved at least one clinical pregnancy (presence of gestational sac with cardiac activity at 8 SA) during the 24 months of ART management (pregnancies obtained after IVF/ICSI, frozen embryo transfers (FET) or spontaneously), comparison in both arms.	24 months
Secondary	Embryology markers	In IVF/ICSI performed in both arms, comparison of fertilization rates, rate of useful embryos (transferred or cryopreserved), embryo implantation rate	24 months
Secondary	Pregnancy markers	On clinical pregnancies obtained after ART or spontaneously during the 24 months of ART management, comparison in both arms: rates of progressive pregnancies (presence of cardiac activity at 12 weeks of amenorrheae)	24 months
Secondary	Pregnancy markers	On clinical pregnancies obtained after ART or spontaneously during the 24 months of ART management, comparison in both arms: rates of obstetric pathology (at least one of the following complications = high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, cholestasis, placenta previa, placental abruption, intrauterine growth retardation, missing twin syndrome, premature rupture of membranes, threat of premature delivery, 3rd trimester hemorrhage, preterm birth, postpartum hemorrhage)	24 months
