Testing a hormone marker to predict infertility risk after childhood cancer
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a blood test (a hormone marker) can predict a child’s future risk of infertility after cancer treatment. If it works, it could help families and doctors plan earlier fertility and puberty-related care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

This study looks at how treatments that can harm ovaries or testicles (like certain chemotherapy, radiation, and immune therapies) may affect fertility. It may help you and others by measuring hormone levels (and in some cases sperm) before and during/after treatment.
This study helps people with cancer preserve their fertility (ability to have biological children) before undergoing cancer treatment that could affect their eggs or sperm. The trial compares two different hormone-injection methods to prepare eggs for freezing.
This trial tests a telehealth (video/phone) program that helps adolescents and young adults with cancer plan for future fertility. It may help you get support and options for preserving your ability to have children before cancer treatment affects it.
This study looks at fertility outcomes in young men who had cancer or blood disorders as children and then received high-risk treatment that can affect future fertility. It also compares people who did or did not store testicular tissue through a biopsy when they were younger.
This study looks at how well the ovaries work in women who had childhood cancer. Researchers want to know if cancer treatments affected fertility.
This study surveys adults who had fertility preservation counseling and testicular tissue freezing before gonadotoxic treatment as children. It aims to learn about their experiences and long-term outcomes.
