Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Oocytes (Intention-to-Treat, ITT)

    The total number of retrieved oocytes at the day of ovum pick-up. No more than 37 hours from the introduction of the trigger of ovulation (hCG or GnRH-agonist). The equivalence in the number of retrieved oocytes was tested using a predetermined equivalence margin of +/- 3.4 oocytes.

    From date of randomization up to 18 days

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Number of Follicles With Size ≥ 16 mm

    From date of randomization up to 16 days

  • Mature Oocytes

    From date of randomization up to 18 days

  • Fertilised Oocytes

    From date of randomization up to 19 days

  • Percentage of Patients With Embryo Transfer

    From date of randomization up to 25 days

  • Total Dose of Follitropin Alfa

    From date of randomization up to 16 days

  • +6 more secondary outcomes
