- Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate that corifollitropin alfa is as effective as daily FSH in controlled ovarian stimulation of oocyte donors. METHODS: From January 2013 to October 2015, 77 cycles controlled ovarian stimulation, derived from a continuous cohort of 77 oocyte donors, were analyzed. After synchronization by oestroprogestatif or estrogens, ovarian stimulation was started by corifollitropin alfa (Group corifollitropin alfa) or by daily FSH (Group daily FSH). In both groups, a GnRH antagonist was used for the prevention of premature surge of luteinizing hormone (LH). The induction of ovulation was induced by a GnRH agonist. The duration of treatment, estradiol rate, numbers of mature oocytes, fertilization rate, clinical and ongoing pregnancies rates were evaluated in the two groups. RESULTS: There is no difference for the age, the markers of ovarian reserve and the duration of treatment. The average rate of estradiol on the eighth day of the stimulation is lower for the corifollitropin alfa (845+/-694.5 vs 1742+/-1177.3, P<0.001), there is no difference in the number of mature oocytes retrieved (14.4 vs 13.4, P=0.979), with a fertilization rate significantly higher in the corifollitropin alfa group (59.8% vs 49.3%, P<0.001). The rate of ongoing pregnancies is higher but without reaching significant difference in this same group (36.6% vs 26%, P=0.277). CONCLUSION: As compared to daily FSH, corifollitropin alfa, in oocyte donors offers, advantages in terms of ease of use with identical efficiency.
