PROGRESS IVF Study
We’re looking for women ages 35-42 to participate in The PROGRESS Study.
Looking to Grow Your Family? Are you considering fertility treatment and interested in contributing to advancements in reproductive health?
Our researchers are investigating an alternative way to administer progesterone with the aim to discover if subcutaneous (under-the-skin) injections are as safe and effective as the current approved medication Crinone® to support the implantation and early pregnancy following Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET).
Crinone® is a progesterone gel that is administered vaginally and has been approved by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The use of subcutaneous injections (Progesterone-lBSA) in this study is investigational. Progesterone-lBSA is already approved and marketed in more than 30 countries worldwide, however, it is not approved in the US by the FDA.
Who Can Participate?
- Ages 35-42 and you have a euploid (normal) embryo from a previous IVF cycle OR if you are a candidate for a new IVF cycle.
- Those who meet eligibility criteria, which will be assessed by the study team.
What is Provided at No Cost to You as a Participant?
If you are eligible, you may receive the following at no cost to you:
- An IVF cycle (if needed), including ovarian stimulation, stim meds (up to 4,000) and embryo biopsy.
- PGT-A testing of all eligible embryos (if undergoing ovarian stimulation).
- A frozen embryo transfer (FET).
- Ovidrel® (hCG) for triggering ovulation.
- Progesterone (study medication) for luteal support.
- Additional financial support if you already have a frozen euploid embryo and do not achieve a pregnancy after completing the transfer within the study.
Important Notes:
- Participation in this study is voluntary.
- The study-related services are provided at no cost, but you may incur costs that may be unrelated to the study (such as long-term storage or additional procedures). These will be discussed with your study doctor or site if they apply to you.
