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 Results may not be published yet.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
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.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial compares two versions of pertuzumab, a drug used to treat certain cancers, to see if a change in how it is manufactured affects how the body absorbs and processes it. Healthy male volunteers aged 18 to 45 receive a single intravenous dose of either the original or the updated version. Researchers measure drug levels in the blood over time and check for safety and immune reactions, aiming to confirm the two versions are equivalent.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
pertuzumab injection (two versions: before and after a manufacturing process change)
What this could lead to
If the two versions behave the same in the body, it could confirm that the updated manufacturing process produces a drug that is just as safe and effective, supporting its continued use.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial in a small group of healthy men, so results may not reflect effects in patients. The drug can have side effects, and the study is not designed to test how well it treats any disease.
