Default Does common (UK) Ivy poison the soil?

We have two raised beds with ivy at the back suppossedly climbing a trellis. They have gone through the trellis and are growing down the other side into a field. None of the plants are doing well in these beds. Is it because of the ivy releasing something into the soil.

Assuming it is - do we add soil or remove soil or wait (until next year) The ivy's days are numbered!
