Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Hospital
Study typeScreening
Scientific title
Study objectivesTo determine whether in vitro fertilisation (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) combined with preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) in patients with advanced maternal age, i.e. women between 35 and 41 years of age, is a cost-effective alternative compared to IVF/ICSI without PGS.
Ethics approval(s)Received from the local medical ethics committee
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSubfertility, infertility
InterventionPatients are allocated at random to one of two treatment arms:
1. IVF/ICSI with PGS (selection of embryos based on normal number of studied chromosomes), or
2. IVF/ICSI without PGS (selection of embryos based on morphology).

A maximum of two embryos will be transferred, according to the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE)-guidelines. In both treatment arms three treatment-cycles will be offered.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureOngoing pregnancy rate.
Secondary outcome measures1. Time to pregnancy
2. Clinical pregnancy rate
3. Pregnancy outcome
4. Implantation rate
