Study Summary

This is a phase 3b clinical trial with follitropin delta (FE 999049) and Gonal-F. The trial is a randomised, controlled, assessor-blind, parallel groups, multicentre trial comparing the ovarian response of a starting dose of either 10mg or 15 mg follitropin delta to a starting dose of either 150 IU or 225 IU Gonal-F in a long GnRH agonist protocol in women undergoing an assisted reproductive technology programme in China.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed and dated Informed Consent Form for participation in the trial, obtainedbefore any trial-related procedures.

  • In good physical and mental health in the judgement of the investigator.

  • Chinese pre-menopausal female between the ages of 20 and 40 years; at least 20 years (including the 20th birthday) when signing the informed consent and no more than 40years (up to the day before the 41st birthday) at the time of randomisation.

  • Eligible for ovarian stimulation with a dose equivalent to 150 IU GONAL-F or 225 IUGONAL-F, as judged by the investigator.

  • Body mass index (BMI) between 17.5 and 32.0 kg/m2 (both inclusive) at screening.

  • Infertile women diagnosed with tubal infertility, unexplained infertility,endometriosis stage I/II or with partners diagnosed with male factor infertility,eligible for in vitro fertilisation (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)using fresh or frozen ejaculated sperm from male partner or sperm donor

  • Infertility for at least one year before randomisation for subjects <35 years or forat least 6 months for subjects ≥35 years (criteria not applicable in case of tubalor severe male factor infertility).

  • Regular menstrual cycles of 24-35 days (both inclusive), presumed to be ovulatory.

  • Transvaginal ultrasound documenting presence and adequate visualisation of bothovaries, without evidence of significant abnormality. Both ovaries must beaccessible for oocyte retrieval.

  • Early follicular phase (cycle day 2-4) serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) between 1 and 15 IU/L (results obtained within 3 months prior torandomisation).

  • Serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentration of ≤35 pmol/L at screening.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Primary ovarian failure.

  • More than three previous controlled ovarian stimulation cycles initiated, regardlessof outcome.

  • History of previous episode of OHSS, exuberant ovarian response to gonadotropins, orpolycystic ovarian syndrome.

  • Known endocrine or metabolic abnormalities (pituitary, adrenal, pancreas, liver orkidney) which can compromise participation in the trial with the exception ofcontrolled thyroid function disease.

  • Known tumours of the ovary, breast, uterus, adrenal gland, pituitary or hypothalamuswhich would contraindicate the use of gonadotropins.

  • Fibroid tumours of the uterus incompatible with pregnancy.

  • Currently breast-feeding.

  • Known inherited or acquired thrombophilia disease.

  • Active arterial or venous thromboembolism or severe thrombophlebitis, or a historyof these events.

  • Known porphyria.
