Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, BCR-ABL1 Positive Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Premenopausal | Other: Cytology Specimen Collection Procedure Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis Other: Questionnaire Administration Procedure: Ultrasonography |
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To collect preliminary information to help design a study to look at longitudinal changes in markers of ovarian reserve and menstruation in premenopausal women undergoing tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) therapy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Evaluate ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in patients who elect to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF) for fertility preservation.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo transvaginal ultrasound for antral follicles analysis and collection of serum for ovarian reserve markers and hormonal analysis before TKI therapy and at 12, 24, and 48 weeks.

- Changes in markers of ovarian reserve in premenopausal women undergoing tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy for cancer [ Time Frame: Baseline to up to 1 year ]Standard descriptive statistics and scatter plots will be used to summarize patterns by cohorts at each time point. Regression methods will be used to render data compatible with the assumption of the normal distribution. Analysis will be undertaken to obtain preliminary estimates of ovarian reserve over time and to elucidate whether TKI therapy produces a clinically meaningful change in ovarian reserve marker.
- Ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in patients who elect to undergo IVF for fertility preservation [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]The results of their stimulation protocol will be recorded.
Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
