Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare, pregnancy rates in asthma patients undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment when treated with either omalizumab or placebo in up to three consecutive fertility treatments with embryo transfer. The primary endpoint is pregnancy confirmed by ultra sound in week 7.;Secondary Objective: A) Change in Sputum and blood Eosinophilic cell count (before treatment and after treatment). B) Change in VEGF, CRP, IL6, IL8, IgE, TNFa, ECP in blood, sputum and uterus secretion (before treatment, and after treatment). C) Changes in the microbiota in sputum (before treatment and after treatment). D) Change in airway inflammation, the inflammatory markers in the blood, the inflammation in the uterus and the sex hormones before and after treatment. E) Rate of pregnancy loss: Difference between positive s-hCG and ongoing pregnancy week 7, week 12, and birth – number of malformation , preterm, preeclampsia, perinatal death, SGA, birth weight in both groups. F) Primary outcome in relation to length of infertility prior to referral and TTP ;Primary end point(s): The pregnancy rate, measured as birt or loss of pregnancy after three consecutive IVF cycles ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 31 december 2024

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1st day of menstruation, 6th day of menstruation, at time of ovulation (both treatments). A) Change in Sputum and blood Eosinophilic cell count (before treatment and after treatment) B) Change in VEGF, CRP, IL6, IL8, IgE, TNFa, ECP in blood, sputum and uterus secretion (before treatment, and after treatment). No collections will be done during the menstruation period. C) Changes in the microbiota in sputum (before treatment and after treatment). No collections will be done during menstruation period. D) Change in airway inflammation, the inflammatory markers in the blood, the inflammation in the uterus secretion and the sex hormones before and after treatment. E) Rate of miscarriages: ongoing s-hCG week 7, ongoing s-hCG week 12, and birth. – number of malformation , preterm, preeclampsia, perinatal death, SGA, birth weight in both groups. F) Total time from first attempt at conceiving to first treatment day, adjusted TTP. End points sub-study: A) Number of malformations and/or other conditions of the children born in the study B) Descriptive information about sex, weight, height C) Information from (if any) lab samples etc. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 31 december 2029
