Registered outcomes54

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Fertilized (2 Pronuclei [2PN]) OocytesOn Day 1 after oocyte retrieval (up to 23 days after start of stimulation)Fertilized oocytes with 2PN were regarded as correctly fertilized.
SecondaryPositive Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (βhCG) Rate10-14 days after blastocyst transfer (up to approximately 6 weeks after start of stimulation)A blood serum βhCG test was obtained 10-14 days after blastocyst transfer. If the test was positive according to the local laboratory's reference ranges, this confirmed a positive βhCG.
SecondaryClinical Pregnancy Rate5-6 weeks after blastocyst transfer (up to approximately 10 weeks after start of stimulation)Clinical pregnancy was based on detection of at least 1 intrauterine gestational sac with fetal heart beat on transvaginal ultrasound.
SecondaryOngoing Pregnancy Rate8-9 weeks after blastocyst transfer (up to approximately 13 weeks after start of stimulation)Ongoing pregnancy was based on detection of at least 1 intrauterine viable fetus by transvaginal or abdominal ultrasound
SecondaryEarly Pregnancy Loss8-9 weeks after blastocyst transfer (up to approximately 13 weeks after start of stimulation)Number of participants with early pregnancy loss defined as a positive βhCG tests but no ongoing pregnancy.
SecondaryFollicular Development on Stimulation Day 6At stimulation Day 6The total number of follicles and the number of follicles per size category were reported.
SecondaryFollicular Development on Last Day of StimulationAt last day of stimulation (up to 20 stimulation days)The total number of follicles and the number of follicles per size category were reported.
SecondarySerum Follicle-stimulating Hormone (FSH) ConcentrationAt Day 6, last day of stimulation (up to 20 stimulation days) and at oocyte retrieval (up to 22 days after start of stimulation)The concentration of serum FSH was measured. The median and IQR of FSH levels on stimulation day 6, End of stimulation and Oocyte Retrieval visit are presented.
SecondarySerum Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) ConcentrationAt the last day of stimulation (up to 20 stimulation days) and at end-of-trial (up to approximately 6 months from the start of screening)The concentration of serum AMH was measured. The median and IQR of AMH levels on End of stimulation and End of Trial are presented.
SecondaryHuman Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) ConcentrationAt Day 6 and last day of stimulation (up to 20 stimulation days)The concentration of hCG was measured. The median and IQR of hCG levels on stimulation day 6 and End of stimulation are presented.
