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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tests a flexible microwave ablation probe that can be guided through a bronchoscope to destroy small lung cancer nodules (up to 3 cm) before surgical removal. Ten people with stage I-II lung cancer will receive the ablation during a bronchoscopy, and the treated tissue will be examined after surgery to see how much of the tumor was killed. The goal is to see if this less invasive approach is feasible and effective.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
AveCure flexible microwave ablation probe (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a less invasive way to treat early-stage lung cancer by destroying tumors through a bronchoscope before surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early feasibility study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The procedure may not fully destroy the tumor or could cause side effects.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Subject with Stage I - II primary lung cancer (Solitary nodules up to 3 cm) as defined by previous pathology or ROSE. * Pathological proof of target nodule/tumor type and malignancy with specimen considered adequate per institutional laboratory standards * Target nodule/tumor which can be accessed via navigational bronchoscopy and confirmed location with cone beam CT scan intra-operatively * Resection/surgical candidate (lobectomy or greater) * Participants must be at least 22 years old and able to provide consent Exclusion Criteria: * Subjects in whom flexible bronchoscopy is contraindicated * Target nodule \< 1.0 cm * Prior radiation or neo adjuvant chemotherapy of the target nodule/tumor * Any comorbidity that the investigator feels would interfere with the safety of the subject or the evaluation of study objectives * Pacemaker, implantable cardioverter, or another electronic implantable device * Patient cannot tolerate bronchoscopy * Patients with coagulopathy * Patients in other therapeutic lung cancer studies * Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding * COVID-19 positive patient at the time of procedure.
