Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Because a large proportion of the embryo's quality is dependent upon the egg, this investigation focuses on treatment of the oocyte during in vitro maturation (IVM). In typical IVF cycles, the egg is recovered when it is mature and ready to be fertilized. However, at this point the oocyte's quality has been set, and cannot be altered. Therefore, to have an impact on oocyte quality the use of in IVM is critical. Development of a successful IVM protocol for clinical use would not only provide an option for women of advanced maternal age, it would also reduce the cost of IVF due to fewer exogenous gonadotropins used for stimulation, and significantly lessen the risk of ovarian hyper-stimulation. The objective of this research study is to evaluate a newly developed oocyte maturation media system for human clinical use in assisted reproductive technology (ART).
