Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With an Ongoing Pregnancy (Cumulative Ongoing Pregnancy Rate)

    An ongoing pregnancy is the presence of at least one fetus with heart activity at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer or confirmed by live birth.The cumulative ongoing pregnancy rate is 100 times the number of participants with an ongoing pregnancy either immediately after embryo transfer in base Trial P05787 (NCT00696800), or after one or more FTET cycles in follow-up Trial P05716 following cryopreservation, divided by the total number of participants that started treatment in base Trial P05787 (NCT00696800). Participants who did not have cryopreserved embryos, or embryo transfers in the FTET cycle(s), were considered 'not pregnant'.

    Up to 1 year after embryo transfer in base trial P05787 (NCT00696800), and FTET cycles in follow up trial

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Percentage of Participants in Follow up Trial With a Miscarriage Per Clinical Pregnancy

    After one or more FTET cycles, up to day of miscarriage (up to 1 year)

  • Percentage of Participants in Follow up Trial With a Miscarriage Per Vital Pregnancy

    After one or more FTET cycles, up to day of miscarriage (up to 1 year)

  • Percentage of Participants in Follow up Trial With an Ectopic Pregnancy

    After one or more FTET cycles, assessed at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer (up to 1 year)

  • Percentage of Participants in Follow up Trial With a Clinical Pregnancy

    After one or more FTET cycles, assessed at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer (up to 1 year)

  • Percentage of Participants in Follow up Trial With a Vital Pregnancy

    After one or more FTET cycles, assessed at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer (up to 1 year)

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa

Participants from the base study P05787 (NCT00696800), received a single subcutaneous (SC) injection of 150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa (Org 36286) on menstrual cycle Day 2/3 (Day 1); 7 daily SC injections from Days 1 to 7 with placebo-recombinant Follicle Stimulating Hormone (recFSH); followed by daily SC injections with 200 IU recFSH up to the day of human chorionogonadotropin (hCG). Daily SC injections of Ganirelix were given from Day 5 to the day of hCG; at which time a single dose of hCG was given when 3 follicles \>= 17 mm. On the day of oocyte pick up (OPU) daily doses of progesterone were started, for up to 6 weeks or menses. Eligible participants from the base study were enrolled in follow up study P05716, where no study treatments were given, and embryos obtained in the base study underwent FTET cycles.

200 IU RecFSH

Participants from the base study P05787 (NCT00696800), received a single SC injection of placebo Corifollitropin Alfa on menstrual cycle day 2/3 (Day 1); 7 daily SC injections with 200 IU recFSH from Days 1 to 7; followed by daily SC injections with 200 IU recFSH up to the day of hCG. Multiple daily SC injections of Ganirelix were given from Day 5 to the day of hCG; at which time a single dose of hCG was given when 3 follicles \>= 17 mm. On the day of OPU daily doses of progesterone were started and continued for up to 6 weeks or menses. Eligible participants from the base study were enrolled in follow up study P05716, where no study treatments were given, and embryos obtained in the base study underwent FTET cycles.

Interventions

On the morning of day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle (Stimulation Day 1), a single SC injection of 150 μg (0.5 mL) Corifollitropin Alfa was administered in the abdominal wall.

150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa

Daily SC injections with 200 IU fixed dose recFSH were started on Stimulation Day 1 and continued up to and including Stimulation Day 7.

200 IU RecFSH

Pre-filled syringe containing an identical solution when compared to Corifollitropin Alfa. On the morning of day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle (Stimulation Day 1), a single SC injection was administered in the abdominal wall.

200 IU RecFSH

Identical ready-for-use solution, but without the active ingredient, supplied in cartridges for SC injection with the Follistim Pen. Daily SC injections were started on Stimulation Day 1 and continued up to and including Stimulation Day 7.

150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa

From Stimulation Day 8 onwards a daily SC dose of 200 IU recFSH was administered up to and including the Day of hCG.

150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa200 IU RecFSH

On Stimulation Day 5 a daily SC injection of 0.25 mg was started, which continued up to and including the day of hCG

hCGBIOLOGICAL

When 3 follicles \>= 17 mm were observed by USS, a single dose of 10,000 IU/USP hCG was administered; or, for those at risk for Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS), a lower dose of 5,000 IU/USP

150 µg Corifollitropin Alfa200 IU RecFSH
ProgesteroneBIOLOGICAL

On the day of OPU, luteal phase support was started by administering micronized progesterone of at least 600 mg/day vaginally, or at least 50 mg/day intramuscular (IM), which continued for at least 6 weeks, or up to menses.
