Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Diagnosis / Prognosis - niPGT-A
Other interventions - Morphology criteria

Active comparator: Control group (group 1) - Deferred single day 6/7 blastocyst transfer with blastocyst selection according to morphology.

Experimental: Intervention group (group 2) - Deferred single day 6/7 blastocyst transfer with blastocyst selection according to the analysis of the spent culture media (niPGT-A).


Diagnosis / Prognosis: niPGT-A
Two scenarios should be considered according to the results in the SBM analysis:

1. The couple decides to transfer the blastocyst selected according to the SBM result (blastocyst prioritization system).
2. The couple decides to biopsy the blastocysts (if SBM results show low euploidy score). This PGT-A analysis will be offered for free but the outcome of these transfers will be excluded for the analysis per completed protocol. However, all transfers will be included in the intention-to-treat analysis.

In the exceptional case of getting a non-informative result for all the SBM analysed, the niPGT-A could be performed again on new SBM samples collected after an additional culture of the embryos for, at least, 8 hours.

Other interventions: Morphology criteria
Embryos for transfer will be selected by the only applicable technique, the assessment of morphology according to Gardner´s criteria, which is the most standardized method.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Patients whose written informed consent approved by the Ethics Committee (EC) has been obtained, after having been duly informed of the nature of the study and voluntarily accepted to participate after being fully aware of the potential risks, benefits and any discomfort involved.
* IVF patients intending to undergo deferred day 6/7 blastocyst SET for any medical indication.
* All the oocytes/embryos from the cycle should follow the laboratory protocol described in the study (embryo culture and vitrification on day 6/7).
* ICSI, IVF or ICSI/IVF performed in fresh own oocytes from couples not undergoing PGT-A. Note: Donor sperm is allowed.
* Female age: 20-40 years, both included.
Minimum age
20 Years
Maximum age
40 Years
Sex
Females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
* Assisted hatching and artificial collapse before collecting SBM samples. Note: Both procedures are allowed only after collecting the culture media sample.
* A known abnormal karyotype if the couple provides it at consultation. If not, karyotype is not compulsory.
* Couples planning to undergo PGT-M or PGT-SR cases will be excluded.
* Surrogate pregnancy (in those countries where it is allowed).
* ERA test and embryo transfer according to ERA result.
* Time-lapse culture systems are not allowed after day 4 of culture.
* Presence of pathologies or malformations that affect the uterine cavity such as polyps, intramural myomas = 4cm or submucosal, septum or hydrosalpinx during the patient's participation in the study. Patients suffering these pathologies before or after their inclusion in the study can participate if the pathology is corrected before performing any study procedure.
* Any illness or medical condition that is unstable or which, according to medical criteria, may put at risk the patient's safety and her compliance in the study.
