Biobank for people having testicle-protecting cancer treatment
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study collects and stores biological samples from people who are planning to undergo OTC, a treatment used to help protect fertility during cancer therapy that can harm reproductive cells. It may help future research by providing researchers with tissue/blood samples linked to this treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies how doctors collect and freeze a small piece of testicle tissue from boys to protect future fertility before treatments like chemotherapy or radiation. It may help families preserve options for having children later if testicular function is permanently affected.
This study collects blood, urine, and tissue samples from patients with urological diseases or cancers to build a biobank for future research. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and develop new treatments.
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 collect and freeze testicle tissue for people who must have surgery, chemotherapy, medicines, or radiation that could permanently harm fertility. You may join if you’re newly diagnosed or need planned treatment that threatens testicular function, and you agree to long-term follow-up.
This trial creates a biobank of samples from people with gynecological issues, infertility, or pregnancy problems. It aims to help researchers better understand these conditions and develop future treatments.
This study freezes a small piece of testicular tissue from boys with cancer before they start treatment that could cause permanent infertility. The tissue is stored so that, in the future, it might help them have biological children.
