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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 phase II trial tests a new drug called PM8002, a bispecific antibody that targets two proteins (PD-L1 and VEGF) involved in tumor growth and immune evasion. It is given together with standard chemotherapy (FOLFIRI) to people with advanced neuroendocrine tumors that have worsened after initial platinum-based chemotherapy. The study aims to see if the combination can shrink tumors and control the disease, while monitoring side effects.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
PM8002 (a bispecific antibody targeting PD-L1 and VEGF) combined with FOLFIRI chemotherapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new second-line treatment option for people with aggressive neuroendocrine tumors that have stopped responding to initial chemotherapy.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase II study with only 31 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The combination may cause side effects, and the treatment may not shrink tumors or improve survival.
