Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Mean Number of Metaphase II (M-II) Oocytes Retrieved
36 hours post r-hCG administration

Mean number of M-II oocytes were calculated for subjects undergoing ovum pick up for Intra-cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI). ICSI is an in-vitro fertilization procedure in which a single sperm is injected directly into an egg under a microscope. Metaphase II stage of the oocyte was classified as the time at which the first polar body was observed microscopically. Metaphase II oocytes are a sub-group of the total number of oocytes.

Recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone (r-hFSH)DRUGSubjects will receive subcutaneous injection of recombinant human follicular stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) 300-450 International Units (IU) administered after pituitary desensitization according to the ovarian response with gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a; at a dose of 0.1 milligram per day \[mg/day\]).
Recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH)DRUGSubjects will receive subcutaneous injection of recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH) 150 IU/day until the end of ovarian stimulation.
