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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 study looks at two proteins, ezrin and Pip5k1α, in the airway muscles of people with and without asthma. Researchers will analyze lung tissue samples from 120 adults to see if these proteins are different in asthma patients. The goal is to better understand asthma and find new ways to treat it.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Participants

About 120 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

May 2024

Expected to finish

Dec 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Referring to previous validation studies of target proteins in the literature, the sample size required for this validation experiment is related to multiple factors: (1) Selection of genes: mRNA differentially expressed genes will have a 50% probability of differential protein expression. (2) Antibody selection: Commercially available antibodies will be used for immunohistochemical detection of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues with a success rate of up to 75%. According to previous validation studies of the target protein, the required samples are 60 in each group, for a total of 120 samples.

Ages

18 to 70 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Lung tissue samples; * The samples come from patients aged 18-70 years old, regardless of gender, who underwent lung tissue sampling for surgical indications during treatment; * Paraffin sections of lung tissue from patients diagnosed with bronchial asthma, including tracheal smooth muscle; * Paraffin sections of lung tissue from non-asthma patients, including tracheal smooth muscle. Exclusion Criteria: * Paraffin sections of lung tissue from patients who have been diagnosed with COPD; * Other situations where the researcher deems it inappropriate to participate in this study.
