Abstract
PURPOSE: To compare aneuploidy rates in early aborted tissues or blastocysts between in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles after the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol or the GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) long protocol. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study from a university-affiliated fertility center. In total, 550 early miscarriage patients who conceived through IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) after receiving the GnRH-ant or GnRH-a long protocol were analyzed to compare aneuploidy rates in early aborted tissues. To compare aneuploidy rates in blastocysts, 404 preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) cycles with the GnRH-ant protocol or GnRH-a long protocol were also analyzed. RESULTS: For early miscarriage patients who conceived through IVF/ICSI, compared to the GnRH-a long protocol group, the GnRH-ant protocol group had a significantly higher rate of aneuploidy in early aborted tissues (48.51% vs. 64.19%). Regarding PGT-A cycles, the rate of blastocyst aneuploidy was significantly higher in the GnRH-ant protocol group than the GnRH-a long protocol group (39.69% vs. 52.27%). After stratification and multiple linear regression, the GnRH-ant regimen remained significantly associated with an increased risk of aneuploidy in early aborted tissues and blastocysts [OR (95% CI) 1.81 (1.21, 2.71), OR (95% CI) 1.65 (1.13, 2.42)]. Furthermore, the blastocyst aneuploidy rate in the GnRH-ant protocol group was significantly higher but only in young and normal ovarian responders [OR (95% CI) 5.07 (1.99, 12.92)]. CONCLUSION: Compared to the GnRH-a long protocol, the GnRH-ant protocol is associated with a higher aneuploidy rate in early aborted tissues and blastocysts. These results should be confirmed in a multicenter, randomized controlled trial.
