Figure 1 Estimation of minimum sample size in an hypothetical clinical trial to detect a 50% reduction in the incidence of IF/TA. For power calculation, it was assumed a 16% prevalence of IF/TA in the preimplantation biopsy, 38% in the protocol biopsy of the control group, and 27% in the protocol biopsy of the treatment group. It was estimated that 285 cases per group would be necessary to detect a difference between groups (α=0.05 and β=0.20).
