東京大学とサイオステクノロジーの研究チームは、年齢や月経周期、少量の採血データから卵巣機能を高精度に予測するAIモデルを開発した。従来法を上回る精度で卵子の数を予測でき、評価が難しかった卵子の質についても一定の精度で推定可能。本モデルは、妊娠を見据えた早期の健康管理(プレコンセプションケア)や、不妊治療の個別最適化に活用が期待される。

Abstract

Background

The age-related decline of fertility is caused by a reduction of the ovarian reserve, which is represented by the number and quality of oocytes in the ovaries. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is considered one of the most useful markers of the quantity of the ovarian reserve; however, a more accurate prediction method is required. Furthermore, there is no clinically useful tool to assess the quality of the ovarian reserve and therefore a prediction tool is required. Our aim is to produce a model for prediction of the ovarian reserve that contributes to preconception care and precision medicine.

Methods

This study was a retrospective analysis of 442 patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment in Japan from June 2021 to January 2023. Medical records and residual serum of patients undergoing oocyte retrieval were collected. Binary classification models predicting the ovarian reserve were created using machine learning methods developed with many collected feature values. The best-performing model among 15 examined models was selected based on its area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and accuracy. To maximize performance, feature values used for model creation were narrowed down and extracted.

Results

The best-performing model to assess the quantity of the ovarian reserve was the random forest model with an AUC of 0.9101. Five features were selected to create the model and consisted of data from only medical records. The best-performing model to assess the quality of the ovarian reserve was the random forest model, which had an AUC of 0.7983 and was created with 14 features, data from medical records and residual serum analysis.

Conclusion

Our models are more accurate than currently popular methods for predicting the ovarian reserve. Furthermore, they can assess the ovarian reserve using only information obtained from a medical interview and single blood sampling. Enabling easy measurement of the ovarian reserve with this model would allow a greater number of women to engage in preconception care and facilitate the delivery of personalized medical treatment for patients undergoing infertility therapy.
