Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the impact of two FDA approved culture media on potential of human embryos resulting from IVF (sequential \& monophasic media). Half of each patient's embryos will be randomly assigned to grow in monophasic media \& the other half in sequential media. All embryos will undergo Comprehensive Chromosome Screening (CCS) \& the best euploid embryo from each group will be transferred resulting in a double embryo transfer (DET). If there are only euploid embryos from one group, patient will have single embryo transfer (SET)(fresh or frozen).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Monophasic Media

Half of each patient's embryos will be randomly assigned to grow in monophasic media \& the other half in sequential media. All embryos will undergo CCS \& the best euploid embryo from each group will be transferred (DET). If there are only euploid embryos from one group, pt will have SET only (fresh or frozen)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Comprehensive Chromosome Screening

Intervention Type OTHER

On day 5 or 6 of embryo development, all embryos will undergo a trophectoderm biopsy using the standardized technique, as according to standard laboratory protocol and without regard to study. Comprehensive Chromosome Screening (CCS) results will be available by the morning of day 6 if embryos are suitable for a fresh transfer which is the routine in our program.

Sequential Media

Half of each patient's embryos will be randomly assigned to grow in monophasic media \& the other half in sequential media. All embryos will undergo CCS \& the best euploid embryo from each group will be transferred (DET). If there are only euploid embryos from one group, pt will have SET only (fresh or frozen)
