Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome - Infertility |
| Purpose: |
|
This multicenter, randomized, open-label exploratory study will be performed in
approximately 200 PCOS but otherwise healthy females undergoing IVF. Each study center will
follow its standard practice for IVF within the study parameters as noted in this protocol.
The study centers will use marketed products purchased from Schraft's Pharmacy for all
phases of the study (down-regulation, stimulation, ovulation induction, and luteal support).
Subjects will be randomly assigned to Menopur® or Follistim Pen® for stimulation and
Endometrin® or progesterone in oil for luteal support. Subjects will return to the study
center for regular scheduled clinic visits as required per IVF protocol at the site and at
specified times during the cycle (Stimulation Day 6, Day of hCG, and first serum pregnancy
test) for estradiol (E2), progesterone (P4) and hCG labs. All subjects will be required to
complete a final study visit at completion of luteal support or negative serum pregnancy
test following embryo transfer.

|
|
| Criteria: |
|
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Pre-menopausal females between the ages of 18 and 42 years
2. Diagnosed with PCOS, using criteria adopted as the 2003 Rotterdam PCOS Consensus (2
out of 3, excluding other etiologies [congenital adrenal hyperplasia,
androgen-secreting tumors, Cushing's syndrome])
- Oligo- or anovulation
- Clinical and/or biochemical signs of hyperandrogenism
- Polycystic ovaries
3. Body mass index (BMI) of 18-39
4. Early follicular phase (Day 3) FSH < 15 IU/L and estradiol (E2) within normal limits
5. Documented history of infertility (e.g., unable to conceive for at least one year, or
for 6 months for women > 38 years of age, or bilateral tubal occlusion or absence, or
male factor but excluding severe male factor requiring invasive or surgical sperm
retrieval. Donor sperm may be used.)
6. Transvaginal ultrasound at screening consistent with findings adequate for assisted
reproductive technology (ART) with respect to uterus and adnexa
7. Signed informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Gestational or surrogate carrier, donor oocyte
2. Presence of any clinically relevant systemic disease (e.g., uncontrolled thyroid or
adrenal dysfunction, an organic intracranial lesion such as a pituitary tumor,
insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, uterine cancer)
3. Surgical or medical condition which, in the judgment of the Investigator or Sponsor,
may interfere with absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the drugs to
be used
4. Two or more previous failed IVF cycles or IVF/ART failure due to a poor response to
gonadotropins, defined as development of 2 mature follicles
5. History of recurrent pregnancy loss, defined as more than two clinical losses
6. Presence of abnormal uterine bleeding of undetermined origin
7. Current or recent substance abuse, including alcohol or smoking > 10 cigarettes per
day
8. Refusal or inability to comply with the requirements of the Protocol for any reason,
including scheduled clinic visits and laboratory tests
9. Participation in any experimental drug study within 30 days prior to Screening
10. Severe male factor requiring invasive or surgical sperm retrieval (e.g.,
microsurgical epididymal sperm aspiration [MESA], testicular sperm extraction [TESE])
11. Prior hypersensitivity to any of the protocol drugs |
