Brief Summary

The objective of this study was to demonstrate the non-inferiority of IVFM HP Inj. by evaluating its efficacy versus Menopur® Inj. in infertility women undergoing the in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) among the assisted reproductive technologies.

Conditions

Infertility, Female

Study Design

• Allocation Method: RANDOMIZED
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

IVF-M HP Inj.
