About this study

Official title: Transplantation of Frozen Thawed Ovarian Tissue Demonstrates High Reproductive Performance and the Need to Revise Restrictive Criteria

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. menstrual bleeding (yes/no)

    recurrence of menstrual bleeding- yes or no

    Measured: up to one year

  2. number of oocytes per IVF cycle

    number of aspirated oovytes per one IVF cycle performed

    Measured: through study completion (up to 11 years following transplantation)

  3. pregnancies

    spontaneous or post IVF pregnancy rates (%)

    Measured: through study completion (up to 11 years following transplantation)

  4. live births

    live birth rates (%)

    Measured: through study completion (up to 11 years following transplantation)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. disease reccurence

    incidence of cancer disease recurrence

    Measured: through study completion (7 months to 141 months following transplantation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing transplantation of ovarian tissue in people with Reproductive Performance Following Ovarian Transplantation, run by Sheba Medical Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

menstrual bleeding (yes/no) (time frame: up to one year). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02659592, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jan 2016.
