Luteal Phase-start Ovarian Stimulation With Corifollitropin Alfa
Follicular or Luteal Start Ovarian Stimulation With Corifollitropin Alfa. A Prospective Equivalence Study With Repeated Ovarian Stimulation in Oocyte Donors
Study Overview

Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The scope of the current prospective trial is to investigate whether Luteal Stimulation (LS) results in equivalent euploid embryos with Follicular Stimulation (FS) in young reproductive age women. The use of the "oocyte donor model" allows extrapolation of the results and application of LS routinely not only in healthy women undergoing fertility preservation but also in all patients irrespective of the menstrual date. This may indeed allow widespread introduction of LS in IVF programs which may result in proper scheduling of ovarian stimulation which is a major issue in everyday clinical practice.
Given that the pharmacokinetics and follicular dynamics of 150μg corifollitropin alfa for luteal stimulation has never been evaluated, the current study of luteal stimulation with corifollitropin alfa could be very interesting for several reasons:
- Potentially immediate synchronization of oocyte donors with recipients aiming to fresh oocyte donation.
- Fertility preservation patients for medical, oncological and non-medical indication
- Any situation in which endometrial receptivity is not pursued.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Early follicular phase protocol
On day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle, following baseline blood sampling, a single SC injection of 150 ìg corifollitropin alfa will be administered (Stimulation Day 1).
Starting on Stimulation Day 6, the subject will receive a daily SC injection of 0.25 mg ganirelix up to and including the day of GnRH agonist triggering administration to prevent premature LH surges.
From Stimulation Day 8 onwards treatment is continued with a daily SC dose of rFSH (200IU/day) up to the day of GnRHa administration.

GnRH antagonist protocol with corifollitropin alfa initiated in the follicular phase (day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle)
|
Experimental: Luteal phase protocol
Following baseline blood sampling on cycle day 2 of 3 of the menstrual cycle, patients will be followed up with blood and ultrasound from cycle day 10 onwards till the detection of serum LH peak.
LH peak will be defined as an increase in serum LH above 20IU/LH.
Five (5) days after the LH peak a single SC injection of 150 ìg corifollitropin alfa will be administered (Stimulation Day 1).
Starting on Stimulation Day 6, the subject will receive a daily SC injection of 0.25 mg ganirelix up to and including the day of GnRH agonist triggering administration to prevent premature LH surges.
From Stimulation Day 8 onwards treatment is continued with a daily SC dose of rFSH (200IU/day) up to the day of GnRHa administration.
