The current study seeks to demonstrate how integrative ovarian rejuvenation program called SEGOVA influence the restoration of hormone stability and increase in the number of follicles in ovarian failure patients. The recruitment of patients and data collection would be performed at three sites: The Special Hospital Jevremova Belgrade, Saint James Hospital Malta, and Remedica Skopje Hospital, Macedonia. A 50-100 of Infertile women with ovarian failure will be included in the period between July 2019 - December 2021. The patients would be coded when entering the program, and all personal information would be protected. Information about medical treatment and background will be held on both paper and electronic case report forms.The result of the procedure will be maintained in the research database with blinding to clinical physician that will perform post procedure follow-up of those patients. In case of a complication, possibly related to treatment, the case will be unblinded. The first day of procedure, autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) is obtained from 100-120 mL of whole blood. After separation 4 mL of PRP is obtained. Concentration of platelets is optimised on 6-8x baseline and 2-3x leucocytes baseline. For activation of PRP autologous thrombin is used in ratio 1:10. On the same day the laparoscopic cortical resection of the ovary is performed in standard technique. Ovarian cortex sample is minced in a petri dish.The volume of activated PRP (4 mL) is mixed with ovarian fragments and incubated for the next 48h at 37℃ and 5% CO2. After 48h, the bone marrow sampling from tibia under general anesthesia is performed to obtain bone marrow. After centrifugation the Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) with nucleated cells is obtained (3 +/- 1,5 mL). Finally, after the 48h has passed from ovarian cortex tissue incubation, fragmented tissue of the ovary with 4 mL of PRP will be injected together with 3 +/- 1.5 mL BMAC into the subcortical region of the both ovaries as transvaginal ultra sound guided injection. After the procedure, during one year follow up, hormone levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol (E2), progesterone (PG) and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) would be measured and the follicle numbers would be monitored to provide insight regarding the ovarian function.To investigate the changes in hormone levels, comparisons of the levels detected prior to the intervention, and 3, 6 and 12 months post-intervention, would be performed using Wilcoxon's rank test. Descriptive statistics will be provided for each variable as mean or median number, frequency, percentage, table or graph. In patients with oocytes retrieved after SEGOVA procedure, standard In Vitro Fertilization protocol would be performed,and fertilization, cleavage and clinical pregnancy rates will be monitored.

Protocol

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.
Design Details

100 patients to be enrolled

Total number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.

This study does not include a placebo group 

Treatment Groups

Group I

Experimental
Intervention group of 50-100 patients with ovarian failure would be subjected to a three-day procedure named SEGOVA: bone marrow derived StEm cell treatment, Growth factor incubation and Ovarian In Vitro Activation. After the procedure, one year follow up of hormones measurements (follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol (E2), progesterone (PG) and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH)) and follicle counts would be established. In patients with oocytes retrieved after SEGOVA procedure, standard In Vitro Fertilization protocol would be performed. The fertilization, cleavage and clinical pregnancy rate will be monitored.
