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.

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.

Summary

This study looks at whether a small drop of blood from a finger-prick device can reliably detect tumor DNA in 35 adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. Researchers will compare results from the finger-prick sample to a standard arm-vein blood draw to see if they match. If successful, this could make cancer monitoring easier and less invasive for patients.
