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 Results may not be published yet.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 trial is testing whether adding the chemotherapy drug docetaxel after standard treatment (radiation or surgery) can improve outcomes for men with a particularly aggressive form of prostate cancer (Gleason score 9-10). Participants will either receive standard treatment alone or standard treatment followed by several cycles of docetaxel. The study will track how long men live without their cancer returning or spreading, and whether the extra chemo improves survival.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
docetaxel (a chemotherapy drug), sometimes combined with carboplatin
What this could lead to
If effective, adding docetaxel after standard treatment could improve survival and delay cancer recurrence in men with high-risk prostate cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a non-randomized trial, so results may be less reliable. Chemotherapy can cause side effects, and it's uncertain if the benefits will outweigh risks.
