Azoospermia

This study tests whether round spermatids (immature sperm cells) can be used in IVF to help men with a condition called non-obstructive azoospermia, where no mature sperm are present. Researchers will collect these cells from the testicles and inject them into eggs to see if they…

This trial tests whether injecting a man's own purified stem cells into his testicles can restart sperm production. It is for men with non-obstructive azoospermia, a condition where the testicles produce little or no sperm. The stem cells are taken from the patient's bone marrow,…

This study tests a gel called PKB171, which contains a drug used to improve blood flow and sperm movement. Couples with mild male infertility who have been trying to conceive for 6 to 24 months apply the gel after sex. The goal is to see if it increases pregnancy rates compared t…

This pilot study tests whether transplanting a man's own frozen testicular tissue, stored before childhood cancer treatment, can restore fertility. Twenty men with azoospermia (no sperm) who want children will undergo the procedure. Doctors will check if the graft produces sperm …

This Stanford study tests whether injecting a man's own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into his testicles can help produce sperm. Ten men with nonobstructive azoospermia who previously failed sperm retrieval will receive the injection. Three months later, doctors will check for sperm…

This study investigates whether a specific mitochondrial DNA variant (MT-ND1 m.3700G>A) is associated with severe male infertility, specifically conditions where sperm production is absent or extremely low. Researchers analyzed existing medical records and biological samples from…

This study tests a new AI-assisted platform called IntelliWell to find rare sperm cells in testicular tissue from men with non-obstructive azoospermia, a condition where standard analysis finds no sperm. The platform processes tissue that would otherwise be discarded, and if sper…

This study aims to find genes that may cause infertility in people with non-obstructive azoospermia (low or no sperm) or primary ovarian insufficiency (early menopause). Researchers will collect saliva samples from 500 adults to look for genetic differences. No new treatments are…
