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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This trial tests whether using a genetic test to guide medication dosing can reduce serious side effects. Researchers will compare 2000 patients who receive genetically tailored dosing against those receiving standard care. Participants will report any side effects over one year. The goal is to see if this personalized approach makes common drugs safer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A genetic test that checks 14 genes involved in drug processing, used to guide medication dosing
What this could lead to
If it works, this could make common medications safer by matching doses to each person's genetic makeup, reducing severe side effects.
What could go wrong
The trial is early and large, but genetic testing may not always predict side effects, and implementing it in routine care could be challenging.
