Current in vitro fertilization (IVF) success rates yield only a 30% live birth rate per initiated cycle
The step of embryo transfer during IVF is the most critical phase in the process, and it is currently manual and operator-dependent. The process is limited by the inability to visualize the embryo’s positioning upon transfer, leading to failure when ensuring precise embryo placement and addressing uncertainties in its correct attachment

Premium Fertility introduces a disruptive solution: a semi-automated and controlled Transfer Direct System (TD System) that integrates optical, microfluidic, and automated components to allow operator-independent embryo placement.
The TD System disrupts the four-decade manual clinical paradigm by providing safe and consistent embryo transfer, expecting to elevate pregnancy success rates

To revolutionize IVF
Value proposition
Research and Initial Design
• Research plans and protocols developed
• System design initiated, including the definition of specifications for critical components (e.g., external catheter, needle gauge, material type, and injection software)
• Optimization studies conducted for post-implantation monitoring
Alpha Prototype and Primate Testing
Pre-Clinical Trials - Beta Prototype Verified
Clinical trials in USA & EU
• Prospective, open-label, non-randomized, non-controlled (before-after study), single-center, intervention clinical trial
• The trial will be conducted in fifty patients under carefully controlled and intensely monitored clinical conditions
• We will evaluate and execute the necessary procedures to obtain regulatory approval in the EU (CE marking) and the USA (FDA approval) Transfer Direct System is classified as Class IIA under Rule 5 of Annex VIII of Regulation (EU) 2017/745 for medical devices
