Experimental: Arm 1
150 µg Org 36286 (corifollitropin alfa)
|
Drug: corifollitropin alfa
On day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle, a single SC injection of 150 μg (0.5 mL) Org 36286 will be administered (Stimulation Day 1). Daily SC injections with placebo-recFSH (equivalent of 200 IU fixed dose) will be started on Stimulation Day 1 and continued up to and including Stimulation Day 7. From Stimulation Day 8 onwards treatment is continued with a daily SC dose of recFSH up to and including the Day of hCG. The maximum total duration of stimulation is 19 days. Other Name: Org 36286

Active Comparator: Arm 2
200 IU recFSH (follitropin beta)
|
Drug: follitropin beta
On day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle, a single SC injection of 0.5 mL placebo-Org 36286 will be administered (Stimulation Day 1). Daily SC injections with recFSH (200 IU fixed dose) will be started on Stimulation Day 1 and continued up to and including Stimulation Day 7. From Stimulation Day 8 onwards treatment is continued with a daily SC dose of recFSH up to and including the Day of hCG. The maximum total duration of stimulation is 19 days. Other Name: recFSH (Puregon / Follistim AQ Cartridge)

Detailed Description:
This is a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial investigating the efficacy and safety of a new treatment regimen with Org 36286, a recombinant gonadotropin applied to initiate and sustain follicular stimulation in controlled ovarian stimulation for ART. For this regimen, patients receive a single injection of Org 36286 and one week later, treatment is continued with daily recFSH up to the day of triggering final oocyte maturation. In the reference group patients receive daily injections of recFSH up to the day of triggering final oocyte maturation. Non-inferiority in ongoing pregnancy rates (assessed at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer) will be the primary endpoint for this trial. The number of oocytes retrieved will be analyzed as co-primary endpoint.
