eValuating iDA Selection Ability. The VISA Study.

A non-inferiority, prospective parallel group, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to investigate whether selection of a single blastocyst for transfer using the deep learning tool, iDA, results in non-inferior clinical pregnancy rate compared to trained embryologists using standard morphology criteria.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Women undergoing IVF or ICSI with controlled ovarian stimulation with gonadotrophins and the intention to treat by either transfer of a single fresh embryo on day 5 or in case of a freeze all cycle, the first rewarmed embryo.
  • Age: Up to and including the 42nd completed birthday on the day of randomization.
  • Has at least two early blastocysts on day 5.

Exclusion criteria

  • Treatment involving donated eggs
  • Intention to perform any form of preimplantation genetic testing
  • The use of IMSI or polarized light in the ICSI process
  • The use of assisted hatching prior to randomization
  • Previous participation in this RCT
  • Where the cycle is carried out for fertility preservation
  • If a day 2-4 transfer is planned
  • Has a reduced likelihood of obtaining two early blastocysts on day 5 as evidenced by either: an AMH level of <3pmol/L or AFC <5 (if available)

Treatment and study plan

iDAScore®

Device

A system that studies time lapse images obtained from the embryo culture system, Embryoscope, throughout the development to blastocyst. The system uses data acquired from a sequence of embryo images and has taught itself to identify the embryos with the highest likelihood of implanting and leading to fetal heart-beat detection.

Primary outcomes

  1. Clinical Pregnancy Rate

    Time frame: After 7-9 weeks of gestation

    Ultrasound evidence of an intrauterine pregnancy with a fetal heart observed

Secondary outcomes

  1. Live Birth Rate

    Time frame: 9 months

    Defined as the number of patients with at least one live birth after 22 completed weeks of gestation. If the exact gestational age is not known then a birth weight of ≥500gr can be used as a cut-off

  2. Positive hCG Rate Per Randomized Patient

    Time frame: Tested on day 9-13 following embryo transfer

    Defined as the number of patients with a positive β-hCG, determined by a hCG measurement from a blood sample or using urinary sticks

  3. Rate of Non-viable Pregnancies

    Time frame: After 7-9 weeks of gestation

    Defined as the difference between number of clinical pregnancies (excluding ectopic pregnancies) and number of positive β-hCG pregnancies

  4. Ongoing Pregnancy Rate

    Time frame: After 7-9 weeks of gestation

    Defined as the number of patients with a viable pregnancy at ≥12 weeks of gestation
