Freezing and re-implanting ovarian tissue for young cancer patients
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests a method to preserve fertility by freezing ovarian tissue before cancer treatment and later re-implanting it. It may help young women and girls who face infertility from their cancer therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 0 and 35 years old and have cancer (like leukemia, lymphoma, bone tumors, or other types).
- Your cancer treatment (such as chemotherapy, radiation, or major surgery) is expected to harm your fertility.
- You have a cancer that is sensitive to hormones and your treatment may damage your ovaries.
- You are not pregnant and have both ovaries.
- You are not considered at high risk for surgery complications.
- You can understand and agree to the procedure (with a parent or guardian if needed).

This study tests a way to protect future fertility in young people who need cancer treatment. It freezes ovarian tissue before treatment and, if appropriate, later returns it to the body to help restore hormone production and possible future pregnancy.
This study follows girls and young women who had or will have a procedure to freeze their ovarian tissue before cancer treatment. The goal is to see how this affects their future ability to have children.
This trial looks at freezing ovarian tissue to help protect future fertility for people who may lose ovarian function from medical treatments or ovarian surgery. It may help you preserve the chance to have children later when egg or embryo freezing alone isn’t an option.
This study looks at freezing (cryopreserving) ovarian tissue before certain cancer treatments or surgeries that may affect fertility. It may help preserve the ability to have children later, especially when future fertility is at risk.
This study helps people who are about to start cancer treatment (or have certain health conditions) preserve their ability to have children later. It removes and freezes a small piece of ovarian tissue before treatments that could damage the ovaries.
This study looks at freezing (cryopreserving) ovarian tissue in people who are at risk of early menopause because of cancer treatment or surgery. It may help preserve natural hormone function and possible future fertility for those who cannot or do not want to freeze eggs or embryos.
