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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 pilot study tested whether a heart MRI could be done safely and effectively in children with cancer who recently had sepsis. The goal was to see if the MRI could find hidden heart inflammation or weakness that standard tests might miss. Only 7 children took part, and the focus was on whether the scan was possible, not on treatment.

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 lead to better ways to detect and manage heart issues in children with cancer after severe infections.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (only 7 participants) focused on feasibility, so results may not apply broadly. It does not test a treatment.

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

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Between 9 and 25 years of age at time of study enrollment * Currently receiving care for cancer at St. Jude * Diagnosed with sepsis according to Phoenix score Exclusion Criteria: * Participant has been diagnosed with clinically significant left ventricular dysfunction (EF \< 55%) prior to the onset of sepsis * Participant has any condition that would, in the opinion of the investigator, place the subject at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the subject unable to meet the requirements of the protocol. * Participant is pregnant * Estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 45 ml/minute/1.73m2 * Does not meet MRI safety screening criteria.
