Active clinical trials for "Infertility"

The primary objective of this clinical study is as follows: • To determine the MTD and to assess the safety and tolerability of C31510 administered as a single 4-hour IV infusion (up to nine different dosages) in subjects with solid tumors The secondary objective of this study is as follows: • To evaluate plasma PK and estimate renal elimination of C31510 administered as a single 4-hour IV infusion (up to nine different dosages) in subjects with solid tumors The exploratory objectives of this study are as follows: To evaluate the pharmacodynamic correlates of C31510 activity in plasma and peripheral blood cells To radiographically evaluate the effects of C31510 on tumors. In selected subjects, the effects on vascular permeability will be assessed by digital contrast enhanced (DCE)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) To evaluate tumor response (preliminary antitumor activity) after repeat administration of C31510 Long-term safety and tolerability of C31510 after repeat administration

Phase: I pharmacokinetic - pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) study. Main objective: To establish the minimum effective dose of progesterone microspheres suspension, which administered by weekly intramuscular injection, will be able to induce transformation from a proliferative endometrium to a secretory endometrium. Study design: Randomized, controlled, open-label, parallel, dose-response clinical trial. Sites: 1 Subjects: 48 postmenopausal women.

BACKGROUND: One couple out of 6 consults for infertility during their sexual life. In 60% of cases a male factor is associated or is the main infertility factor. Inflammatory Syndrome (IS), characterized by the presence of a leukocytospermia is found in 12% of the cases. Leukocyte degranulation causes oxidative stress (OS) through the formation of free radicals attacking the sperm cell functions. HYPOTHESIS: To establish the responsibility of the IS, and OS, in chronicle inflammatory male infertility, the investigators hypothesize that its treatment (as well as its possible cause) must restore or improve the fertilizing capacity of patients sperm. METHODS: This prospective randomized study will test the response to the treatment. The investigators shall measure cellular degradation products due to the OS, thereby certifying that it does have a deleterious effect on sperm cell. Seminal biochemistry will also assess the impact of the syndrome on the genital tract glands and follow its evolution. The patients will be included in the study as soon as the leukocytospermia will be > 0,5*106/ml or as soon as the elastase will be > 500 ng/mL. The examinations will be performed using flow cytometry, CASA (Computer Assisted Semen Analysis). The analysis of sperm morphology will be centralized. Primary endpoint will be a reduction in the percentage of 8OH-dG below 35 %. We anticipate that it should arrive to 20 % of the patients included in the arm treatment by corticosteroid therapy. All in all will thus be needed 50 patients in the group placebo and 50 in the group treated. Secondary endpoint the improvement of the spermatic parameters and the reduction of the fragmentation of the DNA of sperm cells to the treated subjects. All these biological markers will be evaluated 6 month after the treatment: Fragmentation of the spermatic DNA below 37 % during the follow-up in 6 months Leukocytospermia and elastase Seminal biochemistry Other markers of the inflammatory syndrome and oxidative stress (protein carbonyl, 8OHd-Guanosine) Possibly the radiological examinations (Ultrasound and MRI of the genital tract) In addition it would allow us to propose a policy of prevention towards acquired post-infectious male infertility.

The aim of the study is to evaluate if the Step up protocol is equal or superior regarding efficacy and security than the step down protocol. In couple submitted two intrauterine insemination.

The objective of this study was to compare the fertilization rate between the combination of Menopur and Bravelle mixed in the same syringe and Menopur alone, both administered subcutaneously (SC), in subjects undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). Additionally the study assessed subjects' ability to mix and store the combination of Menopur and Bravelle and to assess safety of the Menopur and Bravelle combination.

GnRH (Gonadotropin-releasing hormone) antagonists in IVF (in vitro fertilization) has been accomplished by several randomized controlled trials compared with conventional GnRH agonist long protocol in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients. Moreover, there are debating issues that refer to the timing of GnRH antagonist initiation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the laboratory and clinical priority during ovarian stimulation for IVF in patients with PCOS treated with three different protocols.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of DHEA supplement on ovarian reserve markers, ovarian response to gonadotrophins and cycle outcomes in patients with normal and poor ovarian reserve. Study Hypotheses: DHEA supplementation would improve markers of ovarian reserve and ovarian response to low dose FSH stimulation in both normal and poor responders DHEA supplementation would improve IVF cycle outcomes

This study is a randomized, double blind, controlled clinical trials assess the efficacy of the ginger oral treatment on sperm DNA fragmentation, sperm parameters and male hormones.

This was a prospective, randomized, Phase II, comparative study with a parallel control for evaluating the efficacy and safety of combined treatment of recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) and recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH). The combined treatment was administered at the middle of the follicular phase in subjects undergoing in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) through intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and transfer of embryos (ET).

The purpose of this study is to compare two different in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments: conventional IVF protocol and minimal stimulation IVF protocol, in terms of success rates, stress of treatment, drug-related side effects, multiple pregnancies and cost of treatment.
