Fertility Concerns and Outcomes Among Adolescent and Young Adult Males With Melanoma Receiving Immunotherapy: A Mixed‐Methods Study

Patient experiences highlight the need for collaboration among oncologists, fertility specialists, and supportive professionals to develop tailored counseling and educational materials for male AYA patients with advanced melanoma.
