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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This phase 1 study aims to understand how the body processes and eliminates navlimetostat (BMS-986504), an experimental drug. A small group of healthy female volunteers will receive a specially labeled version of the drug that can be tracked in blood, urine, and feces. By measuring drug levels and breakdown products, researchers hope to learn how the drug is absorbed, metabolized, and cleared from the body.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
navlimetostat (BMS-986504), a radioactive-labeled version of the drug to track its journey through the body
What this could lead to
This study could help researchers understand how navlimetostat is absorbed, broken down, and removed from the body, which is essential for developing it as a potential treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small study in healthy volunteers, not patients. It focuses on drug processing, not on whether the drug works for any disease. Results may not predict effects in people with illness.
