Summary

With the development of the recombinant gonadotrophins, the use of human source proteins for the production of hormones has become unnecessary. These proteins, which are found in urinary preparations, have been thought to cause the local, post-injection adverse events (AEs) in some subjects.

There has been a demand by physicians for an alternative to urinary products for treatment. Due to allergies to urinary products, or other personal reasons, subjects were not able or willing to be treated with proteins of human origin. This study allowed subjects to be treated with the recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin (r hCG) (free of urinary proteins), which otherwise would not be possible. The study sponsor used this opportunity to collect additional safety data on the new recombinant product, (Ovidrel, r-hCG).
