Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Efficacy, Safety, Others

To compare the ongoing pregnancy rate following luteal phase support with standard formulation (200mg tid) and a new formulation (400mg bid) vaginal micronized progesterone in patients undergoing an AC-FET.

Secondary objectives 3

  1. To compare the standard and the new formulations regarding: Prevalence of serum progesterone (P) levels <10 ng/ml before FET, implantation rate, biochemical pregnancy rate (defined as a pregnancy diagnosed only by the detection of bHCG in serum or urine), clinical pregnancy rate (defined as the presence of at least one embryo with heartbeat on transvaginal ultrasound), Miscarriage rate, Frequency of adverse events
  2. To compare the following endpoints in patients with serum P <10ng/ml on the day before ET versus patients with P≥10ng/ml: Implantation rate, Biochemical pregnancy rate, Clinical pregnancy rate, Ongoing pregnancy rate, Miscarriage rate, Incidence of adverse events with oral micronized progesterone
  3. Post study information: Live birth rate, Pregnancy complications, Preeclampsia, Preterm birth, Fetal growth restriction
