The scientific meeting was attended by Dr. Tang Duc Cuong, Level II Specialist – Medical Director of Dong Do Hospital and Director of the Dong Do IVF Center; MSc. Dr. Ngo Thi Diem – Head of the Obstetrics Department of Dong Do Hospital; along with various experts, doctors, technicians, and nurses from the hospital.
During the technical session, MSc. Nguyen Thi Thanh Hang (GENTIS Specialist) presented a scientific report titled "Genratest Technology: Determining the Optimal Window of Implantation (WOI) for Embryo Transfer." The presentation garnered significant attention from all attendees, including medical professionals, technicians, and nurses.
Genratest is a test that analyzes gene expression in the endometrium to precisely determine each woman’s unique Window of Implantation (WOI) – the optimal time when the endometrium is most receptive to embryo implantation. The test involves an endometrial biopsy and next-generation sequencing (NGS) of over 200 genes related to endometrial receptivity. Based on this analysis, doctors can determine the best timing for embryo transfer to achieve the highest success rate.
MSc. Nguyen Thi Thanh Hang provided valuable insights into the Genratest, currently being developed and implemented by GENTIS.
Research shows that among patients with a history of repeated implantation failure, 30–35% have a displaced WOI compared to the standard. This means that continuing with standard embryo transfer timing could result in a high risk of failure – even if the embryo quality and uterine environment are good. Genratest represents a breakthrough in personalized IVF treatment, supporting clinicians in making accurate and timely decisions regarding embryo transfer, thereby increasing implantation rates and reducing unexplained IVF failures.
When questions arose regarding Genratest from Dong Do Hospital’s specialists, Ms. Duong Thi Phuong (Head of R&D at GENTIS) gave detailed explanations on the sampling, analysis, and result delivery process. The endometrial biopsy is taken during a natural or hormone-controlled cycle and processed in GENTIS's ISO 15189-certified laboratory. Results are available within 10–12 working days, giving doctors a scientific basis to adjust embryo transfer timing for the following cycle.
In addition to theoretical aspects, the session also featured notable clinical data from both Vietnamese and international studies. Personalized embryo transfer based on Genratest results has shown significantly improved clinical pregnancy rates. Genratest is considered a valuable tool for patients facing challenges on their journey to parenthood.
Dr. Tang Duc Cuong shared:“We highly appreciate the applicability of Genratest in modern IVF treatments. With a team of skilled doctors and the support of cutting-edge technology, we believe personalized treatment – especially embryo transfer – is the key to improving success rates and reducing the burden on patients.”
Dr. Tang Duc Cuong – Medical Director of Dong Do Hospital and Director of Dong Do IVF Center – engaged in a meaningful discussion about the Genratest solution from GENTIS.
The meeting also set the stage for future collaboration between GENTIS and Dong Do Hospital, particularly in incorporating Genratest into routine treatment protocols and clinical research. This marks a significant step toward enhancing the quality of infertility treatment in Vietnam, making molecular biotechnology more accessible and effective for the community.
