What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying how Antimllerian Hormone AMH levels can predict the risk of future infertility in girls aged 3 to 14 who are undergoing cancer treatment or treatment for benign diseases. The goal is to identify young patients who may have a reduced ovarian reserve after treatment and could benefit from special follow-up or fertility preservation. The study includes children at high, moderatelow, or no risk of ovarian damage from chemotherapy or pelvic irradiation. The study observes AMH and other hormone levels before and after treatment, with no interventions applied. Participants are grouped by their risk level high risk patients receiving conditioning therapy or pelvic irradiation moderatelow risk patients treated with chemotherapy regimens for various cancers and a control group with no risk, consisting of patients with benign diseases or cancers not requiring gonadotoxic treatment. Assessments occur at diagnosis, treatment end, and during follow-up visits scheduled yearly for three years, then every two years until age 18. Participants will have their ovarian reserve evaluated through hormone tests including AMH, FSH, estradiol, testosterone, and LH, alongside menstrual cycle tracking and pubertal development assessed annually using Tanner staging and bone age X-rays. The primary outcome is the AMH marker measured regularly up to 18 years old. Secondary outcomes include premature ovarian failure and ovarian reserve changes. The study also monitors oncological outcomes as per standard care, with a total follow-up duration extending to 18 years old.
