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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This study tests a device that uses light and magnets (COMS) to help heal chronic leg ulcers. About 122 people with venous leg ulcers will receive either standard care plus COMS or standard care alone. The goal is to see if the device speeds up wound healing and improves quality of life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
concurrent optical and magnetic stimulation (COMS) device
What this could lead to
If successful, COMS could become a new, non-invasive way to help chronic leg ulcers heal faster when added to standard care.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-phase trial (122 people). The device may not prove more effective than standard care alone, and results may not apply to all ulcer types.
