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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 clinical trial compares two types of radiation therapy—SBRT and SIRT—each combined with immunotherapy, for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. About 106 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The goal is to see which approach provides longer control of the cancer with similar 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
radiation therapy (SBRT or SIRT) plus immunotherapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify a more effective radiation approach to control advanced liver cancer when combined with immunotherapy, potentially extending life without progression.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-stage trial with only 106 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Both treatments carry risks like liver damage or side effects from radiation and immunotherapy.
