This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the LensHooke CA0 device lowers DNA fragmentation in sperm samples compared to a gradient/swim-up technique. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the LensHooke® CA0 device reduce DNA fragmentation compared to the gradient/swim-up technique? 2. Does the LensHooke® CA0 device improve concentration, motility, and morphology compared to the gradient/swim-up technique? 3. Is sibling embryo fertilization and development the same? 4. Are pregnancy rates different between the 2 groups? 1 semen sample will be split between the 2 treatment techniques. Half of the partner's egg cohort will be injected via intra-cytoplasmic sperm using sperm processed by one technique and the other half of the cohort will be injected by the sperm processed by the other technique. Both methods will look at DNA fragmentation, concentration, motility, and morphology of the sperm. Both methods will be compared in the resulting embryos looking at fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy rates.
A Prospective Comparison of Two Different Sperm Preparation Techniques on the Prescence of DNA Fragmentation and Embryo Development
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
