Objective To evaluate the association of timing of hCG administration and probability of pregnancy in patients stimulated with recombinant FSH/GnRH antagonists for IVF. Design Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. Setting Dutch-speaking Free University of Brussels. Patient(s) One hundred...

Design Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. Setting Dutch-speaking Free University of Brussels. Patient(s) One hundred twenty patients, aged &lt;40 years, treated by IVF or intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Intervention(s) Ovarian stimulation was achieved using recombinant FSH starting on day 2 of the menstrual cycle at a fixed dose. To inhibit premature LH surge, daily GnRH antagonist was used from day 6 of stimulation. Triggering of final oocyte maturation was performed using 10,000 IU of hCG. Patients were randomized to receive hCG either as soon as three or more follicles of size ≥16 mm were present on ultrasonography (early-hCG group) or 1 day after the above criterion was met (late-hCG group). Main Outcome Measure(s) Ongoing pregnancy rate. Result(s) Significant differences were observed between the early-hCG and the late-hCG group regarding E2 (1,388 ± 931 [mean ± SD] vs. 2,040 ± 1,231 pg/mL, respectively) and P (0.8 ± 0.3 vs. 1.1 ± 0.5 ng/mL, respectively) levels on the day of hCG administration and the number of metaphase II oocytes (9.2 ± 7.1 vs. 6.1 ± 4.9, respectively). No significant differences were observed between the early-hCG and the late-hCG group regarding positive hCG (46.2% vs. 50%, respectively) and ongoing pregnancy rates (34.6% vs. 40.7%, respectively). Conclusion(s) The current study provides evidence that earlier administration of hCG is not associated with the probability of pregnancy in cycles stimulated with recombinant FSH and GnRH antagonists.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0015-0282</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1556-5653</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.08.029</identifier><identifier>PMID: 21924414</identifier><identifier>CODEN: FESTAS</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>New York, NY: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject><![CDATA[Adult ; antagonists ; Belgium ; Biological and medical sciences ; Chorionic Gonadotropin - administration & dosage ; clinical trials ; Drug Administration Schedule ; Drug Therapy, Combination ; Female ; Fertility Agents, Female - administration & dosage ; Fertilization in Vitro ; Follicle Stimulating Hormone, Human - administration & dosage ; follicle-stimulating hormone ; GnRH antagonist ; gonadotropin-releasing hormone ; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone - antagonists & inhibitors ; Gynecology.
