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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 collects tumor and blood samples from 3,300 people at high genetic risk for breast, ovarian, and related cancers. Researchers want to learn how these cancers develop and how well treatments work. Participants include those with BRCA1/2 or other gene mutations, or a strong family history of these cancers.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this research could improve understanding of how these cancers develop and help identify better treatments for people with BRCA mutations.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not directly lead to new therapies, and results depend on long-term data collection.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

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

Women who have a high risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer due to a known germline mutation in the BRCA1/2, PTEN, CDH1, or TP53 cancer susceptibility genes, or due to strong family history of either breast or ovarian cancer, in the absence of known cancer susceptibility gene mutation.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

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

Inclusion Criteria: I. Women who have a high risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer due to a known germline mutation in the BRCA1/2, PTEN, CDH1, or TP53 cancer susceptibility genes, or due to strong family history of either breast or ovarian cancer, in the absence of known cancer susceptibility gene mutation. II. Women who are approaching surgery for resection of a pelvic mass, which is considered suspicious for neoplasia by radiologic or clinical criteria; such women may or may not also meet criteria for inclusion in group I.
