To evaluate the hormonal profile in three breast cancer patients who underwent controlled ovarian stimulation in the presence of the aromatase inhibitor letrozole.In IVF University referral center, a case series of three breast cancer patients who underwent controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) with recombinant FSH and letrozole were investigated. Ovulation was induced with hCG (case No. 1) or with GnRH agonist (case No. 2-3). The primary outcome of our study was the detection of progesterone levels in the luteal phase.Very high progesterone values (mean 186.6 ± 43.6 ng/mL) during the luteal phase were recorded in all three cases.High progesterone levels can be related to the use of letrozole independently of the most commonly used trigger regimen. Although progesterone has long been considered a protective factor against breast cancer, several studies have demonstrated that progesterone could expand a transformation-sensitive stem cell population in the mammary glands. The estrogen negative feedback effect on the hypothalamus-pituitary axis and the disruption of steroid biosynthesis and could represent an intriguing reason behind this phenomenon. Our results highlight the need to evaluate further the increase in progesterone levels in the luteal phase in women with breast cancer undergoing COS with letrozole.

The transfer of cryopreserved blastocysts is increasing in IVF centres. However, little is known about the perinatal and obstetric outcomes of this procedure. In an attempt to further elucidate these issues, a systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to compare cryopreserved transfer with fresh blastocyst embryo transfer. The results show that the risk of both preterm (odds ratio [OR] 0.89, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.80–0.99, P = 0.04) and low birthweight births (OR 0.82, 95% CI 0.68–0.99, P = 0.04) was significantly lower after cryopreserved blastocyst transfer than after fresh blastocyst transfer. The rate of large for gestational age births was significantly higher (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.55–1.82, P < 0.00001) and the rate of small for gestational age births significantly lower (OR 0.59, 95% CI 0.54–0.65, P < 0.00001) after cryopreserved blastocyst transfer. The transfer of cryopreserved blastocysts was associated with a significantly lower risk of placental abruption (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.40–0.83, P = 0.003) but a significantly higher risk of Caesarean section (OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.01–1.43, P = 0.03). In conclusion, the perinatal and obstetric outcomes associated with the transfer of cryopreserved blastocysts differ from those associated with fresh blastocyst transfer.

COVID-19 is the world’s most massive epidemic known to date. In order to prevent hospital burdens, governments around the world have adopted restrictive containment mea-sures. Such measures have led to a temporary suspension of all non-urgent clinical procedures. With the reduction of con-tagions, in some country there is a slow and gradual restoration of clinical treatments including reproductive medicine. Even with all safety precautions, the risk of infection is real for infertility patients, medical staff, and the community, making it crucial to establish which infertile patients should be prioritized for treatment provision. Indeed, postponing treatments in infertile patients who show a strictly time-de-pendent reproductive prognosis, could definitely affect reproductive chances. In this sense, POSEIDON group propose the use of a specific algorithm that could help clinicians to most optimally manage who need immediate IVF treatment during COVID-19 pandemic.

Molecularly targeted, customized therapies are designed based on the molecular portraits of cancer tissue. The efficacy of targeted therapy in individual patients depends on the contribution of single individual cancer cells within the context of their microenvironment. We have developed an in vitro model of human mammary epithelial-stromal cocultures to answer specific clinical questions related to breast cancer, to provide a tool with which to identify a signature in each breast tumor, and to identify the metabolic molecular targets of therapy in an attempt to optimize the efficacy of targeted therapy in each patient. Fifty-five human breast cancer samples were obtained through surgery. Epithelial and stromal cells were isolated from tissue specimens by differential centrifugation, and cryopreserved. Western blot analysis and RT-PCR were used to identify the tissue-specific expression patterns of cancer cells. Dose-response curves were constructed for the aromatase inhibitor formestane and for herceptin, and a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay was done for combined treatment. We collected and cryopreserved, for future use, viable living cells from 55 breast tumor specimens from which we derived short-term cocultures. The presence of cytokeratins and vimentin was evaluated in 20 samples, and pHER2/neu and aromatase were evaluated in 4 cocultures. Formestane and herceptin had a cumulative growth-inhibitory effect on cocultures expressing epidermal growth factor receptors and aromatase. The in vitro model of human mammary epithelial-stromal cocultures reported herein can be used to examine, and to store, a patient's tumor-derived, living cells that retain the characteristics of the mother-tissue and respond, in vitro, to therapy.

Background Several studies have shown that exposure to benzene is associated to menstrual disorders, miscarriages and other disorders of the reproductive system. We performed an observational prospective pilot study to evaluate if levels of benzene in follicular fluid were correlated with response to controlled ovarian stimulation. Method Thirty-four normogonadotrophic women undergoing IVF were enrolled. Intra-follicular benzene levels were evaluated by chromatography/mass spectrometry. Based on median benzene level, we divided the study population in two groups: Group A with a “low” intra-follicular benzene concentration (n = 19, benzene

- Abstract
The POSEIDON ( P atient- O riented S trategies E ncompassing I ndividualize D O ocyte N umber) criteria were developed to help clinicians identify and classify low-prognosis patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) and provide guidance for possible therapeutic strategies to overcome infertility. Since its introduction, the number of published studies using the POSEIDON criteria has increased steadily. However, a critical analysis of existing evidence indicates inconsistent and incomplete reporting of critical outcomes. Therefore, we developed guidelines to help researchers improve the quality of reporting in studies applying the POSEIDON criteria. We also discuss the advantages of using the POSEIDON criteria in ART clinical studies and elaborate on possible study designs and critical endpoints. Our ultimate goal is to advance the knowledge concerning the clinical use of the POSEIDON criteria to patients, clinicians, and the infertility community., Competing Interests: SE and CA declare receipt of unrestricted research grants from Merck and lecture fees from Merck.
