What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study looks at blood and skin samples from people with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, rare types of lymphoma that affect the skin. Researchers want to find biological markers that can predict how the disease will progress and how well a patient might respond to treatment. Participants provide samples over up to three years while receiving standard care. The goal is to improve personalized treatment decisions for these conditions.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Blood tests and skin sample analysis (no drug or treatment is being tested)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better ways to predict how each patient's disease will progress and which treatments are most likely to work.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it won't directly test a new treatment. Finding reliable biomarkers is uncertain and may take years to confirm.
