Zusammenfassung:Abstract STUDY QUESTION What demographic and baseline characteristics are predictive of adherence to reproductive medicine clinical trial protocols, live birth or participation in genetic studies? SUMMARY ANSWER Race, BMI and lower income are associated with likelihood of non-adherent to reproductive medicine clinical trial protocols, while race influences collection of biological samples and non-adherent to study protocols is associated with lower probability of live birth. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Although aspects of adherence to study protocol have previously been evaluated as individual factors in infertile women, the factors that affect overall non-adherent to study protocol have not been previously evaluated. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION A secondary data analysis of 1650 participants from two prospective multicenter, double-blind controlled studies was carried out: Pregnancy in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome II (PPCOS II) and Assessment of Multiple Intrauterine Gestations from Ovarian Stimulation (AMIGOS). PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS The participants were women aged 18–40 years old with either polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with ovulatory dysfunction in combination with either hyperandrogenemia and/or polycystic ovarian morphology (PPCOS II), or regular ovulatory cycles with unexplained infertility (AMIGOS). The study was carried out in 14 clinical sites in the USA. Non-adherence to clinical trial protocol was chosen as the primary outcome for this analysis. To evaluate whether demographic and baseline characteristics were predictive of adherence to study protocols, live birth or participation in blood sampling for DNA and repository, and pregnancy registry, these putative factors were compared between the outcome measures. Logistic regression was used to establish a prediction model using the putative predictors introduced above. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE Women who self-identified as African American or Asian and those with higher BMI and lower household income were less likely to adhere to protocol. Non-adherence to the study protocol was associated with a lower probability of live birth (odds ratio: 0.180, 95% CI: 0.120, 0.272, P
