Selective use of corifollitropin for controlled ovarian stimulation for IVF in patients with low anti-Müllerian hormone

Abstract: Corifollitropin, a long-acting follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) analogue used for in vitro fertilization (IVF), does not allow individualization of dosage, and the ovarian response is similar to around 300 IU of daily recombinant FSH. This has raised concerns about the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) when used in standard patients. We administered corifollitropin selectively to patients with anticipated low to moderate ovarian response based on antimüllerian hormone levels in the lower quart… Show more

“…In our center, substantial experience with corifollitropin (Elonva®) stimulation is available. Previously, we presented the analysis of 599 stimulations cycles with no OHSS cases, when the drug was selectively given to patients with AMH in the lower AMH segment (Nielsen et al , 2016). Instead of using a high daily dose of rFSH for the low AMH stratum in the individualized group we chose to use corifollitropin due to ease of administration, a lower cost for the patient and current evidence suggesting an oocyte yield similar to 300 IU/daily of rFSH (Boostanfar et al , 2016).…”

“…According to clinical experts and the published literature ( Slof, 2010 ), these doses are most commonly used in women of advanced maternal age (mean age 38 years). Other studies undertaken in Spain, in other European countries and in the United States of America also report using a daily dose of 300 IU rFSH for all days of controlled ovarian stimulation ( Berkkanoglu and Ozgur, 2010 , Delgado-García et al, 2015 , Drakopoulos et al, 2017 , Gleicher et al, 2015 , Naether et al, 2015 , Revelli et al, 2015 , Rubio et al, 2017 , Ubaldi et al, 2016 ), or during the additional days of controlled ovarian stimulation after administering 150 μg corifollitropin alfa on the first day ( Nielsen et al, 2016 , Polyzos et al, 2013a , Polyzos et al, 2013b ).…”

“…(342) Επιπλέον, οι Nielsen et al (Φεβ 2016) έδειξαν ότι στο πρωτόκολλο διέγερσης με κοριφολλιτροπίνη δεν εμφανίζεται OHSS όταν οι ασθενείς επιλεγούν με βάση μια τιμή ΑΜΗ ≤15pmol/l. (343) Οι Gleicher et al στη Νέα Υόρκη (Ιουν 2012) μελέτησαν κύκλους IVF που έγιναν για προεμφυτευτικό έλεγχο (PGS) και βρήκαν ότι αυξημένα επίπεδα ΑΜΗ συσχετίζονταν ανεξάρτητα με τον αριθμό των διαθέσιμων ευπλοειδικών εμβρύων (p=0.001), ενώ η αυξημένη ΑΜΗ -σε αντίθεση με την FSH-συσχετιζόταν με τον αριθμό των εμβρύων που ήταν διαθέσιμα για βιοψία και PGS (p=0.0001). (344) Αξιοσημείωτο εύρημα παρουσίασε μελέτη των Polyzos et al (Αυγ 2013) που διεπίστωσε ότι το χρονικό διάστημα που μεσολαβεί από τη στιγμή της μέτρησης της ΑΜΗ ορού μέχρι την έναρξη του πρωτοκόλλου πρόκλησης ωοθυλακιορρηξίας δεν επηρεάζει τη συσχέτιση μεταξύ ΑΜΗ και αριθμού ωαρίων, ούτε τη δυνατότητα πρόβλεψης πτωχής ή υπερβολικής απάντησης της ωοθήκης, όταν το διάστημα αυτό είναι μέχρι 12 μήνες.…”
