Ferring ADAPT-1 Trial Builds on Dosing Evidence for Follitropin Delta

Business Wire India Follitropin delta starting dose of 15 micrograms (µg)/day has comparable efficacy and safety as a starting dose of 225 International Units (IU)/day of follitropin alfa for ovarian stimulation in vitro fertilisation (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocol cycles. This is the key finding of a trial presented today at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) Congress in Paris and published in Human Reproduction. These data build on previous studies which have established an estimated point of clinical correspondence for 10 µg follitropin delta to 150 IU follitropin alfa in this class of medications.1,2 The ADAPT-1 trial was a multicentre, randomised, assessor-blind study involving 300 women aged 18-40 years undergoing IVF or ICSI.3 The trial compared the efficacy and safety of follitropin delta and follitropin alfa using conventional dosing regimens with a primary endpoint of number of oocytes retrieved. Currently, follitropin delta is approved for use via a dosing algorithm based on serum anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) and bodyweight individualised for each patient, and aims to obtain an ovarian response which is associated with a favourable safety/efficacy profile. The clinical value of this approach has been well established4,5,6,7,8, particularly in treatment-naïve patients where the algorithm aims to achieve 8–14 retrieved oocytes while minimising the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) to optimise the live birth rate in a fresh and frozen transfer cycle.4,5,6,7,8 Key Findings: Ovarian Response: Both treatment groups achieved a mean of 9.9 oocytes retrieved, indicating similar efficacy Both treatment groups achieved a mean of 9.9 oocytes retrieved, indicating similar efficacy Clinical Pregnancy Rates: Clinical pregnancy rates were similar for follitropin delta 31.6% versus 31.0% for follitropin alfa Clinical pregnancy rates were similar for follitropin delta 31.6% versus 31.0% for follitropin alfa Drug Product Usage: After measurement unit conversion, the mean total dose patients were exposed to was numerically lower for follitropin delta (143.7±33.6 µg) than follitropin alfa (154.3±23.1 µg or 2,105±315 IU) After measurement unit conversion, the mean total dose patients were exposed to was numerically lower for follitropin delta (143.7±33.6 µg) than follitropin alfa (154.3±23.1 µg or 2,105±315 IU) OHSS Rates: Early OHSS rates were low (2.5% for follitropin delta and 3.0% for follitropin alfa), with no cycle cancellations due to excessive ovarian response on either arm of the study. Dr Andrea Bernabeu, Medical Director at Instituto Bernabeu and principal investigator of the ADAPT-1 trial, said: "No patients we see as fertility doctors are the same and the ability to optimise therapy based on patients age, treatment goal and whether they have a high or low response to follicular stimulation are all relevant. These data provide confidence and expand our understanding for dosing in follitropin delta." Pierre-Yves Berclaz, Chief Science and Medical Officer at Ferring Pharmaceuticals, stated: "The ADAPT-1 trial results confirm the efficacy and safety of follitropin delta across the full range of dosing strategies, making it the only recombinant FSH with robust clinical evidence supporting multiple dosing strategies. Ferring will take forward the implications of this study in future dialogue with regulatory authorities." About GnRH protocols Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists and antagonists are used as concomitant treatment during ovarian stimulation to prevent premature luteinisation and ovulation for IVF/ICSI.7,8 About Follitropin Delta (Rekovelle®) Follitropin delta is a human cell line-derived rFSH with an approved dosing algorithm designed for a predictable ovarian response.3 It is the first rFSH derived from a human cell line (PER.C6® cell line). Follitropin delta is structurally and biochemically distinct from other existing rFSH gonadotrophins.3,4 Follitropin delta is approved in certain markets for use in controlled ovarian stimulation for the development of multiple follicles in women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as IVF or ICSI cycle. The individualised dosing of follitropin delta is determined using an approved algorithm, based on a woman's AMH level and body weight.3,5 AMH is a biomarker used to assess ovarian reserve and can help predict ovarian response.5,6 The follitropin delta dose should be based on AMH level, measured using the ELECSYS AMH Plus immunoassay from Roche, the ACCESS AMH Advanced from Beckman Coulter, or LUMIPULSE G AMH from Fujirebio.3 About Ferring Pharmaceuticals Ferring Pharmaceuticals is a privately owned, research-driven, specialty biopharmaceutical group committed to building families and helping people live better lives.

UCSD, astronauts test new cancer-fighting drug in space

SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Researchers from the University of California, San Diego and Axiom Space astronauts are testing a potential cure for cancer in space. Scientists from UCSD's Sanford Stem Cell Institute are working in collaboration with Axiom Space and the JM Foundation on the research project called Cancer in LEO-3, which aims to test how cancer cells behave in response to radiation and microgravity in low Earth orbit (LEO). Catriona Jamieson, M.D., Ph.D. at the Sanford Stem Cell Clinical Center at UCSD Medical Center in La Jolla, is the primary investigator on the project, in partnership with researcher Jessica Pham. San Diego Scripps scientist competes in Netflix's 'All the Sharks' reality show The study focuses on the anti-cancer drug 'rebecsinib' which was developed by Dr. Jamieson and her lab. Researchers say rebecsinib has the potential to fight 23 different types of cancer. The drug launched into space for further testing aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft and SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on Axiom Space's Ax-4 mission on Wednesday, June 11. On Axiom Space's previous mission, Ax-3, the new drug acted as a 'kill switch' by stopping the growth of 'ADAR1-expressing breast cancer organoids,' according to researchers. During the current mission, Ax-4, astronauts on the International Space Station will test how rebecsinib affects tumor organoids derived from cancer stem cells related to leukemia, ovarian cancer, metastatic breast cancer and glioblastoma multiforme. The Ax-4 crew includes astronauts from India, Poland and Hungary. According to Axiom Space, the mission marks each nation's first trip to space in over 40 years. Peggy Whitson from the U.S. serves as commander on the Ax-4 mission. She is accompanied by Shubhanshu Shukla, an Indian Air Force pilot, and mission specialists Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski from Poland, and Tibor Kapu from Hungary. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
