Fertility preservation in children with solid tumors
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial studies whether there are any cancer cells in the tissue taken to preserve fertility in children with neuroblastoma or Ewing sarcoma. The goal is to make sure the preserved tissue is safe to use later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Females of any age who have a benign cyst needing surgery may join.
- Males of any age diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia (no sperm due to a testicular problem) may join.
- Prepubescent girls and boys diagnosed with neuroblastoma or Ewing sarcoma in infancy may join.
- You must be able to give written consent (or have a parent/guardian do it for you).
- You must be part of a social welfare program.

This trial uses special lab models (“immune organoids”) to study certain cancers in children and young people. It may help researchers learn what those cancers do and improve future treatment ideas.
This study collects and studies tissue or bone marrow samples from certain childhood tumors. The goal is to learn what’s going on inside the cancer (using molecular testing) to better understand the disease and how it may respond to treatment.
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 trial studies freezing (cryopreserving) ovarian tissue before treatment that may permanently affect fertility and hormone production. You might consider it if you are planning surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation soon and want to preserve future options.
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.
This trial offers fertility preservation options for children, teens, and young adults diagnosed with cancer or undergoing stem cell transplant before age 21, to help protect their ability to have biological children in the future.
