The studies intended to exclude subjects with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and subjects with low or no ovarian reserve. One cycle of study medication was administered to each randomized subject. For both studies, the administration of exogenous recombinant FSH [Follistim ® (follitropin beta for injection)] 150 IU daily was initiated on the morning of Day 2 or 3 of a natural menstrual cycle. Ganirelix acetate injection was administered on the morning of Day 7 or 8 (Day 6 of recombinant FSH administration). The dose of recombinant FSH administered was adjusted according to individual responses starting on the day of initiation of ganirelix acetate. Both recombinant FSH and ganirelix acetate were continued daily until at least three follicles were 17 mm or greater in diameter at which time hCG [Pregnyl ® (chorionic gonadotropin for injection, USP)] was administered. Following hCG administration, ganirelix acetate and recombinant FSH administration were discontinued. Oocyte retrieval, followed by in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), was subsequently performed. In a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, dose-finding study, the safety and efficacy of ganirelix acetate were evaluated for the prevention of LH surges in women undergoing COH with recombinant FSH. Ganirelix acetate injection doses ranging from 62.5 mcg to 2,000 mcg and recombinant FSH were administered to 332 patients undergoing COH for IVF (see TABLE II ). Median serum LH on the day of hCG administration decreased with increasing doses of ganirelix acetate. Median serum E 2 (17β-estradiol) on the day of hCG administration was 1475, 1110, and 1160 pg/mL for the 62.5, 125, and 250 mcg doses, respectively. Lower peak serum E 2 levels of 823, 703, and 441 pg/mL were seen at higher doses of ganirelix acetate 500, 1,000, and 2,000 mcg, respectively.

Congenital Anomalies An observational study in more than 1,000 newborns compared the incidence of congenital anomalies in newborns of women administered ganirelix acetate to historical controls of a GnRH agonist. This study demonstrated that the incidence of congenital anomalies in children born after COH treatment in women using ganirelix acetate was comparable with that reported after a COH treatment cycle using a GnRH agonist. The incidence of congenital malformations after some Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) [specifically in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)] may be slightly higher than after spontaneous conception. This slightly higher incidence is thought to be related to differences in parental characteristics (e.g., maternal age, maternal and paternal genetic background, sperm characteristics) and to the higher incidence of multi-fetal gestations after IVF or ICSI.

The frequency of LH pulses in the mid and late follicular phase is approximately 1 pulse per hour. These pulses can be detected as transient rises in serum LH. At midcycle, a large increase in GnRH release results in an LH surge. The midcycle LH surge initiates several physiologic actions including: ovulation, resumption of meiosis in the oocyte, and luteinization. Luteinization results in a rise in serum progesterone with an accompanying decrease in estradiol levels. Ganirelix acetate acts by competitively blocking the GnRH receptors on the pituitary gonadotroph and subsequent transduction pathway. It induces a rapid, reversible suppression of gonadotropin secretion. The suppression of pituitary LH secretion by ganirelix acetate is more pronounced than that of FSH. An initial release of endogenous gonadotropins has not been detected with ganirelix acetate, which is consistent with an antagonist effect. Upon discontinuation of ganirelix acetate, pituitary LH and FSH levels are fully recovered within 48 hours. Pharmacokinetics The pharmacokinetic parameters of single and multiple injections of ganirelix acetate in healthy adult females are summarized in Table I . Steady-state serum concentrations are reached after 3 days of treatment. The pharmacokinetics of ganirelix acetate are dose-proportional in the dose range of 125 to 500 mcg.

Special Populations The pharmacokinetics of ganirelix acetate have not been determined in special populations such as geriatric, pediatric, renally impaired and hepatically impaired patients (see PRECAUTIONS ). Drug-Drug Interactions Formal in vivo or in vitro drug-drug interaction studies have not been conducted (see PRECAUTIONS ). Since ganirelix acetate can suppress the secretion of pituitary gonadotropins, dose adjustments of exogenous gonadotropins may be necessary when used during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). Clinical Studies The efficacy of ganirelix acetate was established in two adequate and well-controlled clinical studies which included women with normal endocrine and pelvic ultrasound parameters. The studies intended to exclude subjects with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and subjects with low or no ovarian reserve. One cycle of study medication was administered to each randomized subject. For both studies, the administration of exogenous recombinant FSH [Follistim ® (follitropin beta for injection)] 150 IU daily was initiated on the morning of Day 2 or 3 of a natural menstrual cycle. Ganirelix acetate injection was administered on the morning of Day 7 or 8 (Day 6 of recombinant FSH administration). The dose of recombinant FSH administered was adjusted according to individual responses starting on the day of initiation of ganirelix acetate. Both recombinant FSH and ganirelix acetate were continued daily until at least three follicles were 17 mm or greater in diameter at which time hCG [Pregnyl ® (chorionic gonadotropin for injection, USP)] was administered. Following hCG administration, ganirelix acetate and recombinant FSH administration were discontinued. Oocyte retrieval, followed by in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), was subsequently performed. In a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, dose-finding study, the safety and efficacy of ganirelix acetate were evaluated for the prevention of LH surges in women undergoing COH with recombinant FSH. Ganirelix acetate injection doses ranging from 62.5 mcg to 2,000 mcg and recombinant FSH were administered to 332 patients undergoing COH for IVF (see TABLE II ). Median serum LH on the day of hCG administration decreased with increasing doses of ganirelix acetate. Median serum E 2 (17β-estradiol) on the day of hCG administration was 1475, 1110, and 1160 pg/mL for the 62.5, 125, and 250 mcg doses, respectively. Lower peak serum E 2 levels of 823, 703, and 441 pg/mL were seen at higher doses of ganirelix acetate 500, 1,000, and 2,000 mcg, respectively. The highest pregnancy and implantation rates were achieved with the 250 mcg dose of ganirelix acetate as summarized in Table II .

In addition, none of the subjects with LH rises ≥ 10 mIU/mL had premature luteinization indicated by a serum progesterone above 2 ng/mL. A multicenter, open-label, randomized study was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of ganirelix acetate in women undergoing COH. Follicular phase treatment with ganirelix acetate 250 mcg was studied using a luteal phase GnRH agonist as a reference treatment. A total of 463 subjects were treated with ganirelix acetate by subcutaneous injection once daily starting on Day 6 of recombinant FSH treatment. Recombinant FSH was maintained at 150 IU for the first 5 days of ovarian stimulation and was then adjusted by the investigator on the sixth day of gonadotropin use according to individual responses. The results for the ganirelix acetate arm are summarized in Table III .

The risk of possible adverse reactions should be discussed (see ADVERSE REACTIONS ). Ganirelix acetate should not be prescribed if the patient is pregnant."],"spl_unclassified_section":["meitheal ® Rx only"],"dosage_and_administration":["DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION After initiating FSH therapy on Day 2 or 3 of the cycle, ganirelix acetate injection 250 mcg may be administered subcutaneously once daily during the mid to late portion of the follicular phase. By taking advantage of endogenous pituitary FSH secretion, the requirement for exogenously administered FSH may be reduced. Treatment with ganirelix acetate should be continued daily until the day of hCG administration. When a sufficient number of follicles of adequate size are present, as assessed by ultrasound, final maturation of follicles is induced by administering hCG. The administration of hCG should be withheld in cases where the ovaries are abnormally enlarged on the last day of FSH therapy to reduce the chance of developing OHSS (Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome). Directions for Using Ganirelix Acetate Injection Ganirelix acetate injection is supplied in a single dose, sterile, prefilled syringe and is intended for SUBCUTANEOUS administration only. Air bubble(s) may be seen in the pre-filled syringe. This is expected, and removal of the air bubble(s) is not needed. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water. The most convenient sites for SUBCUTANEOUS injection are in the abdomen around the navel or upper thigh. The injection site should be swabbed with a disinfectant to remove any surface bacteria. Clean about two inches around the point where the needle will be inserted and let the disinfectant dry for at least one minute before proceeding. With syringe held upward, remove needle cover. Pinch up a large area of skin between the finger and thumb. Vary the injection site a little with each injection. The needle should be inserted at the base of the pinched-up skin at an angle of 45–90° to the skin surface. When the needle is correctly positioned, it will be difficult to draw back on the plunger. If any blood is drawn into the syringe, the needle tip has penetrated a vein or artery. If this happens, withdraw the needle slightly and reposition the needle without removing it from the skin. Alternatively, remove the needle and use a new, sterile, prefilled syringe. Cover the injection site with a swab containing disinfectant and apply pressure; the site should stop bleeding within one or two minutes. Once the needle is correctly placed, depress the plunger slowly and steadily, so the solution is correctly injected and the skin is not damaged. Pull the syringe out quickly and apply pressure to the site with a swab containing disinfectant. Use the sterile, prefilled syringe only once.
