Registered outcomes54
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Fertilized (2 Pronuclei [2PN]) Oocytes | On Day 1 after oocyte retrieval (up to 23 days after start of stimulation) | Fertilized oocytes with 2PN were regarded as correctly fertilized. |
| Secondary | Positive Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (βhCG) Rate | 10-14 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. |
| Secondary | Clinical Pregnancy Rate | 5-6 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. |
| Secondary | Ongoing Pregnancy Rate | 8-9 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 |
| Secondary | Early Pregnancy Loss | 8-9 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. |
| Secondary | Follicular Development on Stimulation Day 6 | At stimulation Day 6 | The total number of follicles and the number of follicles per size category were reported. |
| Secondary | Follicular Development on Last Day of Stimulation | At last day of stimulation (up to 20 stimulation days) | The total number of follicles and the number of follicles per size category were reported. |
| Secondary | Serum Follicle-stimulating Hormone (FSH) Concentration | At 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. |
| Secondary | Serum Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) Concentration | At 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. |
| Secondary | Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Concentration | At 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. |
