NCT ID NCT04427384

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 Results may not be published yet.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

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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is tracking 600 people with brain tumors who receive GammaTile therapy during surgery. GammaTile is a device that delivers radiation directly to the tumor site to help prevent regrowth. Researchers are measuring how long tumors stay under control and how patients feel over time.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
GammaTile (a device that delivers radiation directly to the tumor site during surgery)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that GammaTile is a safe and effective way to control brain tumor regrowth after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may not prove cause and effect. It is still recruiting and outcomes are not yet known.

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

Show the full entry requirements

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

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who undergo maximum safe resection of intracranial neoplasm(s) AND implantation of GammaTiles. 2. Willing and able to provide informed consent and to participate in all evaluations. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Inability to undergo pre-operative and post-operative imaging for disease and implant assessment. 2. Major medical or psychiatric illness, which, in the investigator's opinion would prevent completion of treatment, ability to complete assessments at the time of enrollment, and/or interfere with follow ups. 3. Subjects who, in the investigator's opinion, are unable to understand the protocol or to give informed consent, have a history of poor cooperation, noncompliance with medical treatment, or difficulty in returning for follow up care. A legally authorized representative may provide consent if the potential subject lacks the capacity to provide consent themselves.
