  • Protocol summary

    The goal of treatment for poor responders is to synchronize follicular growth and using estradiol before starting gonadotropin stimulation decrease antral follicle heterogeneity. The study is designed as a prospective randomized clinical trial in Yazd research and clinical center for infertility between March 2011 to March 2012.110 patients with poor ovarian response in previous IVF cycle randomly stimulated with luteal estradiol protocol (interventional group) or micro dose protocol (control group).Inclusion criteria: history of poor response to stimulation (<3 dominant follicles or estradiol <500pg/ml), basal FSH level>10 mIU/ml. Exclusion criteria: endometriosis. 55 women in interventional group receive 2 mg estradiol twice a day is started on luteal day 21 and Subsequently stimulation is initiated with gonadotropin in cycle day 2 and 0.25 mg cetrorelix is administrated daily when at least one follicle reach 13-14 mm and continue until the day of hCG injection. Women In control group (n=55) is received Buserelin 50 μg twice/day in cycle day 2 and after two days gonadotropin stimulation is started. Buserelin continue until the day of HCG injection. In both groups 10000 IU HCG is administered IM when at least two follicles reach >17 mm, followed 36 hours later by oocyte retrieval. Embryos are transferred on the third day after retrieval. Clinical pregnancy, number of oocyte ‚duration of stimulation and total dose of gonadotropin is compared between two groups.

    Women in interventional group (n=55) receive 2 mg estradiol twice a day is started on luteal day 21 and Subsequently stimulation is initiated with gonadotropin in cycle day 2 and 0.25 mg cetrorelix is administrated daily when at least one follicle reach 13-14 mm and continue until the day of hCG injection. 10000 IU hCG is administered IM when at least two follicles reach >17 mm, followed 36 hours later by oocyte retrieval. Embryos are transferred on the third day after retrieval.
    Fifty eight randomly selected women underwent IVF using the E2/antagonist protocol (E2/ANT group). In this group, estradiol (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) 2 mg was started orally twice a day on the 21st luteal day and continued until menstruation. Once menses began, estradiol was discontinued and gonadotropin stimulation was started on the2nd day of the menstrual cycle. Gonal-F (Gonal-F, Serono, Italy) at 225-300 IU/day was initiated from the second day of menses and was adjusted according to serum E2 concentrations and the ovarian response as noted by ultrasound. When the leading follicle reached 14 mm in diameter‚ Cetrorelix (Merck- Serono Germany) 0.25 mg SC was added and continued every day until and including the day of hCG administration. In both groups, 10,000 IU of hCG (pregnyl, Daropakhsh, Iran) was administered IM when at least two follicles reached ≥ 18 mm in diameter. The follicles were followed 36 hours later by ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval. The IVF and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedures were performed, and the embryos were transferred on the third day after retrieval with a Labotect catheter (Labotect, Gotting, Germany). A good-quality embryo was defined as seven or more blastomeres on day 3‚equally sized blastomeres and < 20% fragmentation’ and poor-quality embryos consist of all the rest. The number of transferred embryos depended on the embryo quality and the patient’s age. All the patients received 100 mg of progesterone (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) IM per day for luteal support, which was initiated on the day of oocyte retrieval. Serum B-hCG was checked 14 days after the embryo transfer .If the patient was pregnant‚ progesterone was continued until the 10th week of pregnancy. Chemical pregnancy was defined as serum B-hCG >50 IU/L after 14 days from embryo transfer. Clinical pregnancy was defined as the presence of a gestational sac with heart beat identified by ultrasound five weeks after the embryo transfer. The implantation rate was defined as the ratio of gestational sacs to the number of embryos transferred and Clinical abortion rate was determined as clinically recognized pregnancy losses before 20 weeks of gestation. Criteria for cycle cancellation due to poor ovarian response included the presence of fewer than two growing follicles on ultrasound’ with an E2 level < 200 pg/ ml on day 7 of stimulation.
    زنان در گروه هدف(55 بیمار) از روز 21 فاز لوتئال روزی 2 میلی گرم استرادیول 2 بار در روز دریافت می کنند و متعاقباً تحریک با گنادوتروپین از روز دوم سیکل شروع می شود و وقتی حداقل یک فولیکولmm 14-13 وجود داشته باشد سترورلیکس با دوزmg 0.25 روزانه تزریق می شود و تا روز تزریق hcG ادامه می یابد.زمانیکه حداقل 2 فولیکول بیش از 17میلی متر وجود داشته باشد 10000 واحد hcG تزریق می شود و 36 ساعت بعد برداشت اووسیت صورت می گیرد. انتقال جنین 3 روز بعد از برداشت اووسیت انجام می شود.
    گروه مداخله: پنجاه و هشت زن به طور تصادفی انتخاب شده تحت IVF با استفاده از پروتکل آنتاگونیست E2 (گروه E2 / ANT) قرار گرفتند. در این گروه ، استرادیول (شرکت دارویی Aburaihan ، تهران ، ایران) 2 میلی گرم از راه خوراکی دو بار در روز در روز 21 لوتئال شروع شد و تا زمان قاعدگی ادامه داشت. با شروع قاعدگی ، استرادیول قطع شد و تحریک گنادوتروپین در روز دوم چرخه قاعدگی شروع شد. Gonal-F (Gonal-F ، Serono ، ایتالیا) با 225-300 واحد بین المللی در روز از روز دوم قاعدگی آغاز شد و با توجه به غلظت E2 سرم و پاسخ تخمدان همانطور که توسط سونوگرافی ذکر شده تنظیم شد. هنگامی که فولیکول غالب به قطر 14 میلی متر رسید et Cetrorelix (Merck- Serono آلمان) 0.25 میلی گرم SC اضافه شد و هر روز تا و از جمله روز تجویز hCG ادامه یافت. در هر دو گروه ، هنگامی که حداقل دو فولیکول به قطر 18 میلی متر رسید ، 10،000 IU hCG (پرگنیل ، داروپخش ، ایران) IM صادر شد. 36 ساعت بعد فولیکول ها با هدایت سونوگرافی ترانس واژینال تخمکها گرفته شدند. روش IVF و تزریق اسپرم داخل سیتوپلاسمی (ICSI) انجام شد و جنین ها در روز سوم پس از بازیابی با کاتتر Labotect منتقل شدند (Labotect ، Gotting ، آلمان). یک جنین با کیفیت خوب به عنوان هفت بلاستومر یا بیشتر در روز 3 ؛ بلاستومر با اندازه برابر و کمتر از 20 درصد فراگمنتاتسیون و جنین های بی کیفیت تعریف شده است. تعداد جنین های منتقل شده به کیفیت جنین و سن بیمار بستگی دارد. همه بیماران روزانه 100 میلی گرم پروژسترون (شرکت داروسازی Aburaihan ، تهران ، ایران) IM برای حمایت از لوتئال دریافت می کردند که از روز بازیابی تخمک آغاز شد. B-hCG سرم 14 روز پس از انتقال جنین بررسی شد. اگر بیمار باردار بود ، پروژسترون تا هفته دهم بارداری ادامه داشت. بارداری شیمیایی پس از 14 روز از انتقال جنین ، B-hCG> 50 IU / L سرم تعریف شد. حاملگی بالینی به عنوان وجود کیسه حاملگی با ضربان قلب مشخص شد که با سونوگرافی پنج هفته پس از انتقال جنین مشخص می شود. میزان کاشت به عنوان نسبت کیسه های حاملگی به تعداد جنین های منتقل شده و میزان سقط بالینی به عنوان از دست دادن بالینی بارداری قبل از 20 هفته حاملگی تعیین شد. معیارهای لغو چرخه به دلیل پاسخ ضعیف تخمدان ، وجود کمتر از دو فولیکول در حال رشد در سونوگرافی با سطح E2 <200 pg / ml در روز 7 تحریک بود.

    women In control group (n=55) is received Buserelin 50 μg twice/day in cycle day 2 and after two days gonadotropin stimulation is started. Buserelin continue until the day of hCG injection. 10000 IU hCG is administered IM when at least two follicles reach >17 mm, followed 36 hours later by oocyte retrieval. Embryos are transferred on the third day after retrieval.
    Control group consisted of 58 women who underwent ovarian stimulation for IVF using micro dose agonist protocol (micro dose group).In these patients, low-dose OCP (30 mcg Ethinyl Estradiol and 0.3mg Norgestrel, Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) was started on the 2nd day of the previous cycle for 21 days. On the second day of menstruation, Suprefact (Buserelin acetate, Aventis Pharma Deutschland, Germany) 50 µg SC was started and continued twice a day until the day of hCG administration. After two days (on the fourth day of menstruation) Gonal-F was started at 225-300 IU/day .In these patients, like in the other group, the dose of Gonal –F was adjusted according to serum E2 concentrations and ovarian responses as noted by ultrasound. In both groups, 10,000 IU of hCG (pregnyl, Daropakhsh, Iran) was administered IM when at least two follicles reached ≥ 18 mm in diameter. The follicles were followed 36 hours later by ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval. The IVF and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedures were performed, and the embryos were transferred on the third day after retrieval with a Labotect catheter (Labotect, Gotting, Germany).

    Purpose This study aims to verify if luteal estradiol pre-treatment improves IVF/ICSI outcomes in a GnRH antagonist protocol as compared with a micro dose GnRH agonist protocol in poor-responding patients. Methods A total of 116 IVF/ICSI cycles were included in this prospective randomized single blind clinical trial. The selected women were randomly assigned to receive an estradiol pre-treatment in a GnRH antagonist protocol (daily oral Estradiol Valerate 4 mg preceding the IVF cycle from the 21st day until the first day of the next cycle) or in oral contraceptive pill micro dose GnRH agonist protocol. Results The patients in the luteal estradiol protocol required more days of stimulation (10.9 ± 1.6 vs. 10.2 ± 1.8) and a greater gonadotropin requirement (3,247.8 ± 634.6 vs. 2,994.8 ± 611 IU), yet similar numbers of oocytes were retrieved and fertilized. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the implantation rates (9.8 vs. 7.9 %) and the clinical pregnancy rates per transfer (16.3 vs. 15.6 %). Conclusion This study demonstrates that the use of estradiol during a preceding luteal phase in a GnRH antagonist protocol can provide similar IVF outcomes when compared to a micro dose GnRH agonist protocol.

    هدف این مطالعه با هدف بررسی اینکه آیا پیش درمانی لوتئال استرادیول نتایج IVF / ICSI را در یک پروتکل آنتاگونیست GnRH در مقایسه با پروتکل آگونیست میکرودوز GnRH در بیماران با پاسخ ضعیف بهبود می بخشد ، بررسی می کند. مواد و روش ها در مجموع 116 چرخه IVF / ICSI در این کارآزمایی بالینی تصادفی یک سوکور آینده نگر قرار گرفت. زنان انتخاب شده به طور تصادفی برای دریافت یک پیش درمانی استرادیول در یک پروتکل آنتاگونیست GnRH (استرادیول والرات خوراکی روزانه 4 میلی گرم قبل از چرخه IVF از روز 21 تا روز اول چرخه بعدی) یا در پروتکل میکرودوز آگونیست GnRH با قرص ضد بارداری قرار گرفتند. نتایج بیماران در پروتکل لوتئال استرادیول به روزهای بیشتری تحریک (1.6 ± 10.9 در مقابل 1.8 ± 10.2) و نیاز بیشتر به گنادوتروپین (634.6 ± 3،247.8 در مقابل 611± IU 2،994.8) نیاز داشتند ، با این حال تعداد مشابه تخمک ها بازیابی و بارور شدند. از نظر میزان کاشت (9.8 در مقابل 7.9 %)و میزان حاملگی بالینی در هر انتقال (16.3 در مقابل 15.6 %)بین دو گروه تفاوت معنی داری وجود نداشت. نتیجه این مطالعه نشان می دهد که استفاده از استرادیول در طی یک مرحله قبلی لوتئال در یک پروتکل آنتاگونیست GnRH می تواند نتایج مشابه IVF را در مقایسه با پروتکل میکرودوز آگونیست GnRH فراهم کند.

Protocol summary

Study aim
Better ovarian stimulation in patients with poor ovarian responses
Design
Clinical trial with a randomized parallel control group with 116 patients, participating in the study between June 2011 to April 2012 (follow-up time is up to 20 weeks of pregnancy)
Settings and conduct
Clinical trial with a single-blind random control group , between June 2011 and April 2012 at Yazd Infertility Research and Treatment Center, Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: a history of poor response in a prior cycle (≤3 oocytes retrieved, poor-quality oocytes; cycle cancellation due to inadequate ovarian response; Women anticipated to be a poor responder based on initial testing (third-day FSH level of 10 mIU/mL, or a basal antral follicle count <5). exclusion criteria: stage III–IV endometriosis; autoimmune or chromosomal disorders; endocrine or metabolic diseases; existence of only one ovary patients exhibiting a day 3 serum FSH level greater than 15 mIU/mL; Sever male factor (patients with azoospermia and normal morphology of sperm <4%); hydrosalpinx

For fifty eight randomly estradiol (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) 2 mg is started orally twice a day on the 21st luteal day and continued until menstruation. Once menses began, estradiol was discontinued and gonadotropin stimulation was started on the2nd day of the menstrual cycle. Gonal-F (Gonal-F, Serono, Italy) at 225-300 IU/day was initiated from the second day of menses. When the leading follicle reached 14 mm in diameter‚ Cetrorelix (Merck- Serono Germany) 0.25 mg SC was added and continued every day until and including the day of hCG administration.

Randomization description
Patients are admitted to two groups of 58 patients based on permutation block method. Therapeutic tasks within the blocks are determined in such a way that they are random, but the desired allocation ratio is achieved in each block. 29 blocks of 4 are considered. Generate random codes using random block allocation method which will be generated with the help of Random allocation software version 1. The first person eligible to enter the study is given number one and so on until the last eligible person is given number 116. Using a table generated by random allocation software by number, people receive intervention A or B. In order to be blind, the random allocation of this list is given to another person outside the study, and by sending a text message before assigning the type of treatment, the eligible person is asked according to the number, and thus the people enter the study.

Description
Fifty eight randomly selected women underwent IVF using the E2/antagonist protocol (E2/ANT group). In this group, estradiol (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) 2 mg was started orally twice a day on the 21st luteal day and continued until menstruation. Once menses began, estradiol was discontinued and gonadotropin stimulation was started on the2nd day of the menstrual cycle. Gonal-F (Gonal-F, Serono, Italy) at 225-300 IU/day was initiated from the second day of menses and was adjusted according to serum E2 concentrations and the ovarian response as noted by ultrasound. When the leading follicle reached 14 mm in diameter‚ Cetrorelix (Merck- Serono Germany) 0.25 mg SC was added and continued every day until and including the day of hCG administration. In both groups, 10,000 IU of hCG (pregnyl, Daropakhsh, Iran) was administered IM when at least two follicles reached ≥ 18 mm in diameter. The follicles were followed 36 hours later by ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval. The IVF and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedures were performed, and the embryos were transferred on the third day after retrieval with a Labotect catheter (Labotect, Gotting, Germany). A good-quality embryo was defined as seven or more blastomeres on day 3‚equally sized blastomeres and < 20% fragmentation’ and poor-quality embryos consist of all the rest. The number of transferred embryos depended on the embryo quality and the patient’s age. All the patients received 100 mg of progesterone (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) IM per day for luteal support, which was initiated on the day of oocyte retrieval. Serum B-hCG was checked 14 days after the embryo transfer .If the patient was pregnant‚ progesterone was continued until the 10th week of pregnancy. Chemical pregnancy was defined as serum B-hCG >50 IU/L after 14 days from embryo transfer. Clinical pregnancy was defined as the presence of a gestational sac with heart beat identified by ultrasound five weeks after the embryo transfer. The implantation rate was defined as the ratio of gestational sacs to the number of embryos transferred and Clinical abortion rate was determined as clinically recognized pregnancy losses before 20 weeks of gestation. Criteria for cycle cancellation due to poor ovarian response included the presence of fewer than two growing follicles on ultrasound’ with an E2 level < 200 pg/ ml on day 7 of stimulation.

Description
Control group consisted of 58 women who underwent ovarian stimulation for IVF using micro dose agonist protocol (micro dose group).In these patients, low-dose OCP (30 mcg Ethinyl Estradiol and 0.3mg Norgestrel, Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) was started on the 2nd day of the previous cycle for 21 days. On the second day of menstruation, Suprefact (Buserelin acetate, Aventis Pharma Deutschland, Germany) 50 µg SC was started and continued twice a day until the day of hCG administration. After two days (on the fourth day of menstruation) Gonal-F was started at 225-300 IU/day .In these patients, like in the other group, the dose of Gonal –F was adjusted according to serum E2 concentrations and ovarian responses as noted by ultrasound. In both groups, 10,000 IU of hCG (pregnyl, Daropakhsh, Iran) was administered IM when at least two follicles reached ≥ 18 mm in diameter. The follicles were followed 36 hours later by ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval. The IVF and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedures were performed, and the embryos were transferred on the third day after retrieval with a Labotect catheter (Labotect, Gotting, Germany). A good-quality embryo was defined as seven or more blastomeres on day 3‚equally sized blastomeres and < 20% fragmentation’ and poor-quality embryos consist of all the rest. The number of transferred embryos depended on the embryo quality and the patient’s age. All the patients received 100 mg of progesterone (Aburaihan Pharmaceutical Co., Tehran, Iran) IM per day for luteal support, which was initiated on the day of oocyte retrieval. Serum B-hCG was checked 14 days after the embryo transfer .If the patient was pregnant‚ progesterone was continued until the 10th week of pregnancy.

Abstract of published paper
Purpose This study aims to verify if luteal estradiol pre-treatment improves IVF/ICSI outcomes in a GnRH antagonist protocol as compared with a micro dose GnRH agonist protocol in poor-responding patients. Methods A total of 116 IVF/ICSI cycles were included in this prospective randomized single blind clinical trial. The selected women were randomly assigned to receive an estradiol pre-treatment in a GnRH antagonist protocol (daily oral Estradiol Valerate 4 mg preceding the IVF cycle from the 21st day until the first day of the next cycle) or in oral contraceptive pill micro dose GnRH agonist protocol. Results The patients in the luteal estradiol protocol required more days of stimulation (10.9 ± 1.6 vs. 10.2 ± 1.8) and a greater gonadotropin requirement (3,247.8 ± 634.6 vs. 2,994.8 ± 611 IU), yet similar numbers of oocytes were retrieved and fertilized. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the implantation rates (9.8 vs. 7.9 %) and the clinical pregnancy rates per transfer (16.3 vs. 15.6 %). Conclusion This study demonstrates that the use of estradiol during a preceding luteal phase in a GnRH antagonist protocol can provide similar IVF outcomes when compared to a micro dose GnRH agonist protocol.
