Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The purpose of the non-inferiority study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and the safety of two different subcutaneous FSH preparations (Fostimon®, IBSA Institut Biochimique SA versus Gonal-F®) for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in a GnRH-antagonist cycle;Secondary Objective: 1) Ovarian stimulation 2) Oocyte quality 3) Embryo quality 4) Final result ;Primary end point(s): Clinical pregnancy rate, per stimulated cycle, per oocyte retrieval and per embryo transfer. A clinical pregnancy is defined as a pregnancy showing ultrasound embryonic heart activity at 8 weeks of gestation.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 8 of pregnancy | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1) Ovarian stimulation • Mean FSH dose (daily and total); • Number of days of FSH stimulation; • Number of follicles >16 mm on the day of hCG injection; • Progesterone and 17 beta-estradiol levels on the day of hCG triggering; • Cancellation rate with reasons. 2) Oocyte quality • Total number of oocytes retrieved; • Mean number of mature oocytes (grade III-metaphase II) and ratio MII/Total oocytes retrieved; • Mean number of immature oocytes and ration Immature/total oocytes retrieved; • Mean number inseminated/injected oocytes; • Fertilization rate: defined as the number of 2PN (or already cleaved) embryos on Day 1 divided by the total number of injected/ inseminated oocytes; • Cleavage rate: defined as the number of cleaved embryos on culture day 2 divided by the total number of injected/inseminated oocytes. 3) Embryo quality • Total number of embryos obtained, plus number transferred and frozen; • Embryo quality: assessment of blastomeres number and embryo morphology parameters: degree of fragmentation and cell division aspect. 4) Final result • Positive beta-hCG test per oocyte retrieval and per embryo transfer; • Implantation rate, defined as the ratio of the number of implanted embryos (presence of gestational sac assessed by ultrasound) and the number of transferred embryos. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Ovarian stimulation: Visit 4 (induction of ovulation) Oocite quality: Visit 5 (oocyte collection) and V6 (embryo transfer) Embryo quality: Visit 6 (embryo transfer) Final result: visit 7 (pregnancy test) and Visit 8 (pregnancy confirmation and TVUS) | — |
