Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT04200287
Purpose
The goal of this research is to explore how a patient decision aid tool (website) given to
patients prior to their survivorship care visits, may impact patient-provider communication
about fertility and family-building after cancer; and assess the impact of using the tool on
patient reported outcomes. The overall purpose of this research is to improve survivorship
care by establishing a multi-disciplinary approach to managing cancer and fertility issues
and prompt early referral to supportive and medical care resources.
