Single shot may shield fertility in women facing stem cell transplant
NCT ID NCT07552506
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a single injection of goserelin, given just before a stem cell transplant, can help preserve ovarian function in women with severe aplastic anemia. The trial will enroll 132 women aged 14–50 and compare menstrual recovery rates six months after transplant between those who receive goserelin and those who do not. The goal is to reduce the risk of early menopause and protect fertility without affecting transplant success.

Inclusion Criteria: (1) Patients clinically diagnosed with SAA and scheduled for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT); (2) Female patients aged 14 to 50 years, within reproductive age, with regular menstrual cycles prior to transplantation; (3) Patients or their legal representatives voluntarily participate and sign informed consent forms, demonstrating comprehension and willingness to comply with all study procedures and requirements; (4) Patients with an estimated survival period exceeding one year to ensure sufficient time for monitoring menstrual recovery. Exclusion Criteria: (1) Patients with severe dysfunction of vital organs such as the heart, liver, or kidneys, which may compromise study outcomes or increase patient risk; (2) Patients with a history of allergy to goserelin or related medications; (3) Patients who have previously undergone menopause due to physiological or pathological factors; (4) Patients with a history of gynaecological conditions (e.g., polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis) that may interfere with the assessment of menstrual recovery; (5) Patients currently participating in other clinical studies that may influence menstrual recovery; (6) Patients who refuse to participate in this clinical study.
