NCT ID NCT07801690

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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tracks adults with squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule who receive brachytherapy, a type of radiation placed directly into the tumor. Researchers will record treatment techniques, radiation doses, and outcomes like tumor control, side effects, and patient satisfaction. The goal is to find the best ways to deliver brachytherapy to maximize cure rates and preserve the nose's appearance and function.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Brachytherapy (interventional radiotherapy), a procedure where a radioactive source is placed directly into or near the tumor
What this could lead to
If it works, this could refine brachytherapy dosing and technique, improving tumor control and nose preservation while reducing side effects for people with nasal vestibule cancer.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove which technique is best. Results depend on real-world practice variations and may not apply to all patients.
