Study Title
CCRM Fertility’s In Vitro Maturation (IVM) Clinical Study
Study Description
A patient takes hormones for only a few days and the eggs are retrieved in an immature state and then grown to maturity in the lab. Once the eggs are mature, the process is identical to a typical IVF cycle.
Benefits of IVM
- IVM dramatically reduces the number of injections the patients must receive
- Reduces the side effects often present with hormone treatment
- Virtually eliminates the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome
- IVM is beneficial for individuals with PCOS who are at greater risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome
IVM Study Criteria

- Diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or polycystic ovaries, or infertile women with good ovarian reserve
- Have an antral follicle count (AFC) of 25 or greater
- AMH > 3.5 ng/ml
- Body Mass Index (BMI) <35
- Agree to have embryos biopsied for preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A
- Intend to perform embryo transfer within 4 months after completing the IVM cycle
- Paternal (or donor) age <45, ejaculated sperm collection only (partner frozen and donor sperm acceptable), sperm morphology (strict criteria) >1%, motility > 20% and sperm count > 10 million per ml (so samples can be prepared through standard procedure)
- Patients may not have had more than two failed IVF cycles in the past
