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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study is testing colchicine, an anti-inflammatory drug, in 380 people who have had a heart attack or unstable angina. Researchers want to understand why some patients respond well and others don't, by looking at their genes, proteins, and other markers. The goal is to build a model that predicts who will benefit most from colchicine therapy.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Colchicine 0.5 mg oral tablet once daily
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors predict which heart attack patients will benefit most from colchicine, personalizing anti-inflammatory treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a randomized trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and colchicine can cause side effects like stomach upset.

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.
