What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

The aim is to investigate the feasibility, safety, and complication rates of patient's self-measurement of CBC and self-administration of blood and platelet transfusions at home and examine the performance of patients conducting at-home monitoring of their blood pressure, pulse rate, saturation, and temperature before and after transfusion. Furthermore, to evaluate the health economic consequences of our innovative approach, specifically, the anticipated reduction in reliance on nurse-driven services. This study is a single-arm feasibility study with patients newly diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. The study will be conducted at the Department of Hematology, Rigshospitalet. Patients are included if they are ≥ 18 years old, newly diagnosed with AML within four weeks, and scheduled to receive home-based chemotherapy. Patients are excluded if they do not speak Danish or are not assessed to be capable of performing home-based CBC measurements and administration of transfusions. Patients will be discontinued if they do not achieve remission after the second chemotherapy cycle. Included patients will receive comprehensive training and certification to perform CBC measurements, self-administer transfusions, and monitor selected vital parameters including blood pressure, pulse rate, oxygen saturation, and temperature. It is hypothesized that the study can demonstrate the logistic, technical, and economic feasibility and safety of educating patients with AML undergoing intensive chemotherapy, to independently conduct self-measurement of complete blood count (CBC), self-administration of transfusions at home, and examine the performance of patients conducting at-home monitoring of their blood pressure, pulse rate, saturation, and temperature before and after transfusion.
