About this trial

This is an interventional basic science trial for Infertility focused on measuring PCOS and normal ovulatory patients, aneuploidy, in-vitro maturation of oocytes

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 35 Years (Adult)FemaleAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • healthy volunteers, either with PCOS/PCOS-like ovaries, or with normal ovaries, who undergo oocyte donation for research
  • AFC at least 10
  • AMH: > 5 μg/L
  • Female age < 36 years

Exclusion Criteria:

  • major uterine or ovarian abnormalities

Sites / Locations

  • Centre for Reproductive Medicine

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

in-vitro maturation of oocytes

Arm Description

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of aneuploidy rate by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) technique in 6 to 8 cell embryos from prolonged (PMC) IVM compared to conventional IVM on sibling oocytes.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Implantation potential of embryos from conventional IVM performed on Type II COC. Efficiency of both maturation systems in obtaining blastocysts. Endometrium quality in IVM cycles.

Arm Title
in-vitro maturation of oocytes
Arm Type
Experimental
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
prematuration culture
Intervention Description
The aneuploidy rate and the developmental potential of embryos obtained from PDE3 inhibitor-treated oocytes (a "prolonged" IVM (PMC)) in comparison to "conventional" IVM will be analysed. It is intended to assess the nuclear and cytogenetic constitution of the obtained embryos.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Incidence of aneuploidy rate by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) technique in 6 to 8 cell embryos from prolonged (PMC) IVM compared to conventional IVM on sibling oocytes.
Time Frame
3 days after egg retrieval
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Implantation potential of embryos from conventional IVM performed on Type II COC. Efficiency of both maturation systems in obtaining blastocysts. Endometrium quality in IVM cycles.
Time Frame
7 days after egg retrieval
