US regulatory status & drug development
Gonadorelin (listed as gonadorelin hydrochloride and gonadorelin acetate) was the active ingredient of FACTREL (NDA 018123, approved September 30, 1982) and LUTREPULSE KIT (NDA 019687, approved October 10, 1989). Drugs@FDA lists both applications as discontinued (checked October 7, 2026). Research-labelled Gonadorelin listings are not FACTREL or LUTREPULSE KIT and are not FDA-approved drugs.

An FDA approval covers a defined medicine, formulation and labelled use. It does not extend to research-labelled material sold under the same compound name. Identity basis: Same active moiety: the approved products list gonadorelin hydrochloride and gonadorelin acetate; the research record is gonadorelin (PubChem CID 638793).

Registered clinical trials
Studies registered on ClinicalTrials.gov that list Gonadorelin as an intervention. Studies that only measure the molecule as a biomarker, or use it only as a comparator or background arm for another drug, are excluded. A registration describes a planned or completed protocol; it does not report a result. Active studies are listed first.
