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

Summary

This study is collecting information on how well the HistoSonics Edison System, which uses sound waves (histotripsy) to destroy liver tumors, works in everyday medical practice. Up to 5,000 adults with liver tumors will be followed for up to 5 years after treatment. The main goal is to see how patient and procedure factors affect whether the tumor is successfully treated within 36 hours.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Histotripsy (sound wave therapy) via the HistoSonics Edison System
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that histotripsy is a safe and effective non-invasive option for treating liver tumors, potentially reducing the need for surgery or radiation.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. Success depends on tumor type and patient factors, and long-term outcomes are still being tracked.
