Summary

To demonstrate the comparative safety and efficacy of Cetrotide® 3 milligram (mg) and Antagon™ in the inhibition of a premature luteinizing hormone (LH) surge in women undergoing ovarian stimulation with recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone/human menopausal gonadotropin (r-hFSH/hMG) prior to assisted reproductive technology (ART) and utilizing oral contraceptives pill (OCP) for cycle programming.

Conditions

  • Infertile Women Undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)

Interventions

DRUG

Cetrotide®

Cetrotide® will be administered subcutaneously as 3 mg injection when the lead follicle is \>=14 mm till r-hCG day. If the subject did not achieve follicular maturation and did not receive r-hCG within 4 days, then the Cetrotide® will be administered at dose of 0.25 mg subcutaneously on successive days until r-hCG day.

DRUG

Antagon ™

Antagon™ will be administered subcutaneously at a dose of 0.25 mg once daily when the lead follicle is \>=14 mm until r-hCG day.

DRUG

Recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone (r-hFSH)

Recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) will be administered at a starting dose of 225 international unit (IU) subcutaneously once daily from S1 up to Stimulation Day 5 (S5). Beginning on Stimulation Day 6 (S6), the r-hFSH dose will be individualized to the subject. The minimum and maximum daily doses are 75 IU and 450 IU, respectively until r-hCG day.

DRUG

Human Menopausal Gonadotropin (hMG)

Human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) will be administered subcutaneously daily at a dose of 75 IU till r-hCG day. The total daily dose of r-hFSH and hMG combined is not to exceed 450 IU (375 IU r-hFSH and 75 IU hMG).

DRUG

Recombinant Human Choriogonadotropin (r-hCG)

The r-hCG will be administered as a single dose of 250 microgram (mcg) subcutaneously when there is at least one follicle of \>=18 mm and two additional follicles of \>=16 mm with an appropriate plasma estradiol levels for the number and size of the existing follicles. The r-hCG will be administered within 36 hours after the last dose of the r-hFSH/hMG.
