OBJECTIVE: Recurrent implantation failure is defined as failure to achieve clinical pregnancy after the transfer of four or more good-quality embryos in a minimum of three fresh or frozen cycles in a woman aged less than 40 years. The objective is to compare between the effect of intrauterine G-CSF, hCG, and saline solution injection (as placebo) at the day of ovum pick-up on clinical pregnancy, chemical pregnancy, implantation, and miscarriage rates in patients with recurrent implantation failure undergoing IVF/ICSI. METHODS: This prospective, double blind, parallel, randomized controlled trial included 150 patients equally divided into 3 groups, each containing 50 individuals. Subjects in Group 1 received intrauterine injections of G-CSF; Group 2: received intrauterine injections of 500 IU of hCG; and Group 3 received intrauterine injections of saline solution as placebo. The primary outcome measure is clinical pregnancy rate. Secondary outcomes are biochemical pregnancy, implantation, and miscarriage rates. RESULTS: Clinical pregnancy, biochemical pregnancy, and implantation rates were highest in the group given G-CSF and lowest in the group administered saline solution; miscarriage rates were not significantly different between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Intrauterine administration of G-CSF at a dose of 100 µg/1.0 cc at the time of ovum pick-up is associated with better clinical pregnancy, chemical pregnancy, and implantation rates as compared with intrauterine saline solution administration. Further studies are needed to determine the optimum timing of intrauterine administration of G-CSF that achieves the best results, and longer follow-up is needed to determine take-home baby percentages.
