Ovarian Cancer Trial, Recruiting
Who may be able to join
AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- People who have gone through puberty and are under 30 years of age
- People who are about to have surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation treatment that could affect their ability to have children in the future
- People whose health condition or cancer requires removal of all or part of one or both ovaries
- People who will receive high-dose radiation to the whole abdomen or pelvis (at or above certain dose levels, depending on whether puberty has occurred — confirm exact thresholds with trial site)
- People who will receive total body irradiation
- People who will receive certain intensive chemotherapy drugs, including high doses of cyclophosphamide, any treatment containing procarbazine, high doses of busulfan, or chemotherapy given before a stem cell transplant
- People who will receive high-dose radiation to the brain (30 Gy or above)
- People who meet specific combined chemotherapy dose thresholds used to measure treatment intensity (confirm details with trial site)
- People with a newly diagnosed condition or one that has returned after previous treatment
- People who were not enrolled at the time of their original diagnosis may still be considered eligible, even if prior treatment is thought to have already caused permanent loss of ovarian function — however, these individuals would be asked to provide a small skin tissue sample (4mm punch biopsy) for research purposes
Who may not be able to join:
- People who are not expected to receive any cancer-related treatments
- People who are pregnant
- People who have only one ovary
- People whose doctors consider them to be at high risk of complications from surgery
