Minimal Residual Disease Evaluation on Cryopreserved Ovarian Fragments in Younger Patients Treated for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (FERTILAM)

December 17, 2025 updated by: University Hospital, Lille

Pilot Study to Assess Minimal Residual Disease on Cryopreserved Ovarian Fragments in Younger Patients Treated for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Cryopreservation of ovarian cortex represents an option for fertility preservation in patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and requiring allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

This pilot study aims to evaluate the minimal residual disease on ovarian fragments harvested before allogeneic stem cell transplantation at the time of complete remission.
