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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 measures oxygen levels inside cervical cancer tumors during a type of radiation called brachytherapy. Ten adult patients with cervical cancer will have tiny oxygen sensors placed in their tumors during the procedure. The goal is to see if oxygen levels relate to how well the cancer responds to treatment.

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 could help doctors understand how tumor oxygen levels affect treatment outcomes, potentially guiding future therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage observational study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It does not test a new treatment.

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

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have a biopsy-proven diagnosis of cervical cancer for which interstitial brachytherapy is planned as standard treatment * Age 18 years or older * ECOG performance status of 2 or less (see Appendix A) * Patients who have received prior radiation or chemotherapy may be enrolled on this study * Participant is deemed to be an appropriate candidate for MR-guided brachytherapy by the radiation oncologist and the patient elects to be treated with MR-guided brachytherapy * Participant provides informed consent for prospective collection of relevant medical records for analysis of clinical outcome and treatment-planning techniques * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document. Participant is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations including follow- up Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who have a contraindication to MRI identified by the MR procedure screening form, such as a pacemaker, aneurysm clip, inner ear implant, neurostimulator, or other non-MR-compatible device or implant * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
