NCT ID NCT05036486

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 collects tumor tissue from 480 people with advanced biliary tract cancer in Taiwan to analyze their genetic makeup. The goal is to create a detailed map of genetic changes in this cancer, which could help identify potential targeted therapies. Participants are already receiving or about to start their first standard treatment, and the study simply observes and records their genetic and clinical data.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could create a detailed genetic map of biliary tract cancer in Taiwan, helping doctors match patients with targeted treatments in the future.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial. It will not directly benefit participants and may not lead to new therapies for years, if at all.

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