项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is written in response to RFA-HD-06-008 to participate as a Clinical Site in an ongoing multicenter cooperative program designed to conduct clinical studies investigating problems in reproductive medicine. The application directly addresses the mission of the Reproductive Sciences Branch to ensure the birth of healthy, wanted babies through studies on human fertility and infertility. The long term objectives of the proposed project are to reduce the incidence of multiple pregnancy associated with assisted reproductive technology (ART), to reduce the incidence of excess embryo production and embryo cryopreservation associated with ART, and to reduce the burden on patients of ART therapy. Over 100,000 cycles of ART treatment are performed each year in the US, and ART is now responsible for 1% of all births. Advances in ART have increased its efficacy, but have also led to a large increase in the incidence of multiple pregnancies. The public health impact of ART associated multiple pregnancies cannot be overstated. The majority of ART cycles in the US employ complex treatment regimens entailing self administration of multiple parenteral drugs and intensive outpatient monitoring. These regimens facilitate the creation of multiple embryos, which promotes the transfer and cryopreservation of excess embryos. The proposed project aims to address the shortcomings of conventional ART therapy by examining via a randomized clinical trial design an alternative ovarian stimulation regimen based on the oral administration of the aromatase inhibitor letrozole and minimal monitoring. The specific aims of the project are to: 1) compare the incidence of multiple pregnancies in letrozole ART cycles with the incidence in conventional ART, 2) determine the incidence of embryo cryopreservation in the two treatment regimens, 3) compare the cumulative live born delivery rate per patient derived from two cycles of letrozole ART compared to one cycle of conventional ART, 4) examine the cumulative cost of two cycles of letrozole ART compared to the cost of a single cycle of conventional ART, and 5) compare self-reported levels of treatment burden and participant concerns between the two regimens. It is hypothesized that the cost savings and reduced treatment burden associated with letrozole therapy compared to conventional ART will allow patients to undergo two cycles of letrozole based ART, which will result in a similar live born delivery rate, a significantly lower incidence of multiple pregnancy and a significantly lower incidence of embryo cryopreservation. The relevance of the project derives from its potential to reduce multiple pregnancies with their attendant costs and risk of death and disability. The proposed examination of treatment costs is relevant given the problem of access to ART care, which limits appropriate utilization in the US. Finally, the project addresses relevant social and ethical concerns regarding embryo cryopreservation.

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请是针对RFA-HD-06-008的响应，以作为临床部位参与正在进行的多中心合作计划中，旨在进行临床研究，以调查生殖医学中的问题。该申请直接解决了生殖科学分支机构的任务，以通过研究人类的生育和不育的研究来确保健康，想要的婴儿的诞生。拟议项目的长期目标是减少与辅助生殖技术（ART）相关的多重怀孕的发生率，以减少与艺术相关的过量胚胎产生和胚胎冷冻保存的发生率，并减轻艺术疗法患者的负担。在美国，每年都会进行超过100,000个艺术疗法，而ART现在负责所有出生的1％。艺术的进步提高了其疗效，但也导致多次怀孕的发生率大大增加。与多次怀孕相关的艺术的公共卫生影响不能被夸大。美国的大多数艺术周期都采用复杂的治疗方案，需要对多种肠胃外药物进行自我管理和密集的门诊监测。这些方案有助于创建多个胚胎，从而促进过多胚胎的转移和冷冻保存。拟议的项目旨在通过随机临床试验设计检查常规艺术疗法的缺点，该设计基于口服芳香酶抑制剂letrozole和最小监测的替代性卵巢刺激方案。该项目的具体目的是：1）比较letrozole艺术周期中多个怀孕的发生率与传统艺术中的发病率，2）确定在两种治疗方案中胚胎冷冻保存的发生率，3）比较累积的活出生的累积生物性生物递送率，每次cy cy Art of Concultion Art of Concultion Art of Concultion Art cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy cy contiction cy cy cylet的累积率很高。对于单个传统艺术周期的成本，以及5）比较自我报告的治疗负担和参与者之间的关注。假设与传统艺术相比，与letrozole治疗相关的成本节省和减轻治疗负担将使患者能够经历两个基于letrozole的ART周期，这将导致相似的实时分娩率，多重妊娠的发生率明显降低，并且胚胎冷冻保存的发生率显着降低。该项目的相关性源于其潜力减少多个妊娠的潜力以及其随之而来的成本以及死亡和残疾的风险。鉴于获得艺术护理的问题，拟议的治疗费用检查是重要的，该问题限制了美国的适当利用。最后，该项目解决了有关胚胎冷冻保存的相关社会和道德问题。
