Clinical Study on the Preservation of Ovarian Function Following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Malignant Hematologic Diseases Using Goserelin

Plain-language summary
This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial planned to enroll 64 female patients with malignant hematologic diseases aged 14-50 years who are scheduled to undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Patients will be divided into two groups based on the use of myeloablative conditioning: the myeloablative conditioning (MAC) group and the non-MAC conditioning group. The non-MAC group refers to a primary conditioning regimen where the main conditioning agents-busulfan (Bu) ≤ 6.4 mg/kg, melphalan (Mel) ≤ 140 mg/m², and thiotepa ≤ 10 mg/kg-are combined. Patients receiving this primary chemotherapy regimen will be assigned to the MAC group. Within each group (MAC or non-MAC), patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to either the experimental group (goserelin prophylaxis) or the control group using a random number table. The experimental group received a single 3.6 mg subcutaneous injection of goserelin 1-3 days prior to conditioning, in addition to the standard transplantation regimen. The control group did not receive goserelin prophylaxis. The primary endpoint was menstrual recovery rate at 6 months post-transplantation. Secondary endpoints included: incidence of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI); ovarian reserve function markers: anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2) levels; other reproductive indicators: ovarian volume, endometrial thickness; Neutrophil/platelet engraftment time; Complications: incidence of acute/chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD/cGVHD), EBV/CMV infection rates; Disease recurrence rate; Transplant-related mortality; Adverse event (AE) occurrence. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of goserelin in improving ovarian function following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with malignant hematologic diseases.

Inclusion Criteria:
1\. Patients with malignant hematologic disorders scheduled for allogeneic hematopoietic 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 ability to understand and comply with all study procedures and requirements; 4. Expected survival exceeding 1 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 affect study outcomes or increase patient risk; 2. Patients with a history of allergy to goserelin or other related medications; 3. Patients who have already undergone menopause due to physiological or pathological factors; 4. Patients with a history of gynecological 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 affect menstrual recovery; 6. Patients who refuse to participate in this clinical study.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
