Study Summary

This trial tests how well sperm chosen by a doctor works for IVF compared to sperm chosen by a lab.

Who is the study for?
Couples facing infertility, where the female is under 42 but over 18 years old with normal ovarian reserve and undergoing their first IVF cycle. They must elect single embryo transfer and preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy. Exclusions include males with certain genetic abnormalities or those needing surgically obtained sperm.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial compares two methods of selecting sperm for ICSI during IVF: one using zona pellucida-bound sperm and the other using routine embryologist selection to see which method improves pregnancy outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly stated, typical side effects from IVF procedures can include cramping, bloating, breast tenderness, mood swings, headaches, bruising from shots, allergic reactions to medicines, infection or bleeding.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: ZP Bound Sperm Selection Oocyte CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This is half of the patient's mature oocytes that will be inseminated via the ICSI procedure with sperm that has bound to the ZP of an immature oocyte.
Group II: Routine Care: Embryologist Selected Sperm Oocyte CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This is half of the patient's mature oocytes that will be inseminated via the ICSI procedure per routine with sperm that is subjectively selected by the embryologist (based on morphology and mobility characteristics). This is the current standard of care for ICSI.
