Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: This clinical trial will evaluate the impact of an ovarian biopsy on the oocyte metaphase II yield after controlled ovarian stimulation before chemotherapy in view of breast cancer. The purpose of this trial is to learn about the possibility to combine these two fertility preservation procedures without decreasing the number of oocytes collected after an ovarian stimulation.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives will be to compare the follicular growth, follicle output rate (FORT), COC yield, maturation rate. ;Primary end point(s): Mature oocyte yield from biopsied versus non-biopsied ovary;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Evaluation of number of mature oocytes after denudation of cumulus-oocyte complexes on the day of transvaginal oocyte retrieval

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary objectives will be to compare the follicular growth, follicle output rate (FORT), COC yield, maturation rate. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Assessment of follicular growth will take place during the ovarian stimulation by performing a transvaginal ultrasound. FORT, COC yield and maturation rate will be assessed on the day of transvaginal oocyte retrieval.
