Validating Incubators in the Lab: Optimizing Culture and Investigating blasTulation Yield (NCT06214936)
The VILOCITY Trial: Validating Incubators in the Lab: Optimizing Culture and Investigating blasTulation Yield: a Randomized Control Trial (RCT)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this study is to determine if benchtop incubators improve the number of embryos making it to the blastocyst stage of development (about 4-6 days after fertilization) in people undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment for their infertility. * Test the effectiveness of the benchtop incubator. * Determine if the number of embryos reaching the blastocyst stage of embryo development (the stage that the embryos are biopsied for PGT-A and frozen) is improved in the benchtop incubator compared to the box incubator. * Compare embryology outcomes between the two incubator types. * Investigate transfer and pregnancy outcomes. * Expand the knowledge surrounding the impact of the incubator on IVF outcomes. Patients will have their mature oocytes collected at the egg retrieval procedure split into two groups and randomized to be cultured in both incubator types.
