简要总结
The purpose of study is to compare the effectiveness of the Day-5 fixed administration of GnRH antagonist versus flexible administration of GnRH antagonist during ovarian stimulation in Chinese women with predicted high ovarian response, and the hypotheses is that the number of oocyte retrieved in fixed protocol is not inferior to GnRH antagonist flexible protocol.
详细描述
The investigator will be responsible for analyzing the study data. This study is designed as an open-label fashion, and thus, no blindness will be maintained during the study. The database will not be locked until medical/scientific review has been completed, protocol violators have been identified, and data has been declared complete.
Statistical Methods For the primary endpoint, mean and standard deviation (SD) on the number of oocytes will be presented. The between-group difference and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) (Day-5 fixed protocol - flexible protocol) will be calculated by using a two-sample t-test under the assumption that the sample data are normally distributed. A test for normality will be performed prior to the analysis on primary endpoint and possible nonparametric adjustment will be made for skewed data in terms of primary analyses. The non-inferiority will be established if the lower bound of the 95%CI in the treatment difference between two groups (Day-5 fixed protocol - flexible protocol) does not exceed -3.0. The superiority may be claimed for the Day-5 fixed protocol if the lower bound of 95%CI for the treatment difference is above 0.0.
For the secondary endpoints on categorical variables, the number and percentage of the event will be calculated and displayed. Clinical and ongoing pregnancy rates will be separately calculated and presented. Between-group comparisons will be made by Chi-square test and the corresponding 95%CI will be presented by using Miettinen-Nurminen method if the number of the observed events is at least 4. Mean and SD will be summarized for continuous variables in terms of secondary outcome measures. A treatment difference between study groups will be made by using two-sample t-test or nonparametric test whenever appropriate.
The number of subjects who have reported adverse experiences (AE) and the incidence of individual AEs will be counted and presented. Fisher's exact test will be performed to compare between treatment groups.
Demographics and the subject's relevant medical history will be summarized by descriptive statistics.

Fixed Protocol
Patients will start Follitropin beta stimulation on menstrual cycle day 3 and the daily dose will be fixed for the first 5 days of stimulation, a modification of the rFSH dose will be allowed from stimulation day 6 onward. Ganirelix will start fixedly on stimulation Day 5. rhCG will be administered to induce final oocyte maturation as soon as at least three follicles of ≥17 mm were observed, and triptorelin trigger will be used as a replacement in case of OHSS high risk
