What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • corifollitropin alfaDrug

    Also called Org 36286

    On Cycle Day 2, a single injection of 60 μg, 120 μg, or 180 μg Org 36286 was administered. One week later (Treatment Day 8), treatment was continued with a fixed daily subcutaneous (SC) dose of 150 IU Puregon® up to and including the Day of hCG. Orgalutran® (0.25 mg) was administered once daily SC starting on Treatment Day 5 and up to and including the Day of hCG. The maximum total treatment duration was 19 days.

  • Follitropin beta injectionDrug

    Also called Follistim®, Puregon®

    Starting on Cycle Day 2, a fixed daily dose of 150 IU Puregon® SC was administered for the entire stimulation period up to and including the Day of hCG. Orgalutran® (0.25 mg) was administered once daily SC starting on Treatment Day 5 and given up to and including the day of hCG. The maximum total treatment duration was 19 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing corifollitropin alfa and Follitropin beta injection in people with Fertilization, run by Organon and Co.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of cumulus-oocyte-complexes retrieved (time frame: 1 cycle). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00598208, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Aug 2024.
