Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Live birth rate according to stimulation protocol

    Live birth rate according to stimulation protocol

    Up to 38 weeks after embryo transfer

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Blastulation rate according to stimulation protocol

    Up to 6 days post oocyte retrieval

Study Arms (2)

3-Injection-Protocol Group

Women in group A (3-Injection-Protocol Group) receive a bolus late luteal dose of Degarelix, a new long acting GnRH antagonist, a sole Elonva injection in the early follicular phase followed by the administration of a single dose of triggering agent (GnRH agonist or hCG a, according to the individual response).

Diagnostic Test: Live birth rate

Multiple-Injection- Protocol Group

Women assigned to group B (Multiple- Injection- Protocol Group) are administered a single dose of Elonva (corifollitropin alfa) in the early follicular phase followed by daily GnRH antagonist doses, either fixed on day 6 of the stimulation cycle, or when 2 or 3 follicles over 12-14 mm are present. Ovulation triggering is the same as in group A, with either GnRH agonist or hCG a, accordingly.

Diagnostic Test: Live birth rate
