Intervention: The patients were randomized in two groups, 85 received rFSH and 83 received hMG to ovulation induction, both groups used GnRH antagonist to prevent ovulation.\n\nMain Outcome Measure: Total embryonic score and best embryonic score. Secondary outcomes: Total dose of gonadotropins, number and size of follicles in the end of the stimulation, number of mature oocytes, number of embryos, pregnancy rates.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '40 Years', 'minimumAge': '25 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 25 to 40 y\n* infertile\n* submitted to IVF\n* no hormonal disease\n* normal FSH (\\< 10)\n* anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) \\> 1 ng and \\< 10 ng\n* both ovaries\n* only first or second IVF\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), prolactin (PRL) altered\n* endometrioma\n* ovarian tumor or cysts\n* previous Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS)\n* severe male factor'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02412904', 'briefTitle': 'Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Embryonic Quality in rFSH Versus hMG in IVF Protocol With GnRH Antagonist', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre'}, 'officialTitle': 'Phase 4 Study Comparing Recombinant Follicle Stimulating Hormone (rFSH) or Ultra-pure to HMG in Patients Submitted to IVF Using Gnrh Antagonist', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '130120'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'drug to ovulation induction: rFSH', 'description': 'Patients submitted to IVF that will use rFSH (Puregon®, Organon Ltd., Ireland) for ovarian stimulation', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: rFSH']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'drug to ovulation induction :HMG', 'description': 'Patients submitted to IVF that will use hMG (Menopur®, Ferring Pharmaceuticals, Denmark) for ovarian stimulation', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: HMG']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'rFSH', 'type': 'DRUG', 'otherNames': ['Puregon®, Organon Ltd., Irlanda'], 'description': 'the patients will be asked to schedule an ultrasound in the first three days of the menstrual cycle and starts the ovarian stimulation with the previous randomized selected gonadotropin (rFSH or hMG) using a dose between 150 - 300 IU according with their AMH and antral follicle count (AFC).
