a)P-values are based on Fisher's exact test, except for ongoing pregnancy where the P-value is based on the likelihood ratio test corresponding to the generalized linear model with covariates treatment group, age class (<32 years, ≥32 years) and region (Europe, North America).

b)Positive hCG test at least 14 days after embryo transfer or USS with at least one gestational sac.

c)Clinical pregnancy: gestational sac on USS.

d)Vital pregnancy: gestational sac + fetal heartbeat.

e)Ongoing pregnancy: vital fetus at least 10 weeks after embryo transfer or live birth.

f)Per ongoing pregnancy.
