Summary

This study, conducted in India, will be recruiting women participants who are between the ages of 18 and 42, and who have an indication for controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), but have not yet undergone in-vitro fertilization and/or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI). The study is designed to compare the difference in oocyte (immature egg cell) production after administration of the investigative drug, MK-8962 (corifollitropin alfa) + recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (recFSH), in contrast to use of only the reference drug, recFSH.

Conditions

• Infertility

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	MK-8962	MK-8962 is supplied in a ready-to-use prefilled syringe containing 100 microgram (μg) or 150 μg corifollitropin alfa per 0.5 mL. Participants are randomized to receive a single subcutaneous (SC) injection of MK-8962 in the abdominal wall on Cycle Day 2 or Cycle Day 3. Dose of administered MK-8962 is weight-based. Participants who weigh 60 kilograms (kg) or less will be given 100 μg MK-8962 and those who weigh more than 60 kg will be given 150 μg MK-8962.
DRUG	recFSH	Recombinant Follicle Stimulating Hormone (recFSH) will be supplied as a ready-to-use solution in a 600 IU cartridge for SC injection via the recFSH Pen. Starting on Day 2 or 3 of the menstrual cycle (Stimulation Day 1), recFSH will be administered daily, each morning, via injections in the abdominal wall. A starting dose of between 150 - 300 IU will be administered and is fixed for the first week of stimulation. After 6 days, and based on each participant's individual response, the Investigator may decide to reduce the fixed dose for the remainder of the study. The maximum duration of stimulation is 19 days; recFSH will not be administered on the Day of hCG Administration.
DRUG	Ganirelix	0.25 mg/day SC injection in the upper leg, administered on Stimulation Day 5 up to and including Day of hCG Administration
DRUG	human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG)	Single dose of 10,000 or 5,000 IU hCG, administered via SC injection on Day of hCG Administration.
DRUG	Progesterone	Crinone 8% (90 mg) gel administered intravaginally via a single-use, one piece polyethylene vaginal applicator once-daily on Day of Oocyte Pick-up or 1 day later and continued for at least 6 weeks or either up to menses or up to a negative pregnancy test performed at least 18 days after Day of Oocyte Pick-up.
