About this trial
The goals of this international multicenter cross-sectional study are:
1. To provide patients with a comprehensive PGT solution capable of simultaneously detecting embryonic chromosomal aneuploidy, mosaicism, microdeletions/ microduplications, heteroploidy, and heterozygosity (LOH) in a single assay, thereby reducing miscarriage and birth defects; 2. To perform PGT analysis on abnormally fertilized embryos, select euploid embryos with normal ploidy, and calculate embryo utilization rates; 3. To reduce the false-positive rate through confirmation of mosaic embryos and subsequent analysis of its origin, thereby minimizing embryo wastage; 4. To provide molecular genetic evidence for expert consensus on clinical management of atypically fertilized embryos, of pathogenic/likely pathogenic small CNVs, optimize mosaic embryo transfer strategies, and inform preconception intervention; 5. To enhance international PGT testing standards through international multi-center collaboration.
The study will enroll patients undergoing PGT-A from seven domestic and international centers, with patient enrollment expected to be completed within one year. PGT-A upgrade testing will be performed on embryos from enrolled patients, and the incidence rates of Incidence of microdeletions/microduplications, heteroploidy, LOH will be statistically analyzed. All patients who undergo embryo transfer will be followed up for clinical outcomes and birth defects.
