NCT ID NCT06259084

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested a device called Seedchrony that measures a natural chemical in the uterus to see if it can predict whether an embryo transfer will lead to pregnancy. The study involved 92 women undergoing their first IVF cycle. The goal is to find a way to improve the low success rate of IVF, which is currently below 40%.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Seedchrony probe (device measuring intrauterine biomarker)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a simple test that helps doctors choose the best time for embryo transfer, potentially improving IVF success rates.

What could go wrong

This is a small pilot study (92 participants) that only measures a biomarker—it does not test whether using the device actually improves pregnancy rates. The results may not apply to all IVF patients.
