Comparing FET Guided by ERA Vs Standard Timing in Patients with Recurrent Implantation Failure
China734 participantsStarted 2025-02-15
Plain-language summary
The pregnancy rate of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) remains around 35% per transfer. Women who are not pregnant following several embryo transfers are regarded as having recurrent implantation failure (RIF), with one of the causes being the asynchronization of the embryo and endometrium. Endometrial receptivity analysis (ERA) may identify the window of implantation and guide the timing of embryo transfer to improve the pregnancy outcomes. However, there is no randomized controlled trial on the clinical effectiveness of ERA in women with RIF.
This is a multicenter double-blind randomized controlled trial. All participants will have an endometrial biopsy for ERA in a standard hormonal treatment cycle. They will then be randomly assigned in the central laboratory into the intervention or control group in a 1:1 ratio. At the transfer cycle, participants in the intervention group will have frozen embryo transfer timed according to the results of ERA while those in the control group will have the transfer according to the standard timing. The primary outcome is the ongoing pregnancy rate at 10-12 weeks at their first frozen embryo transfer.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
