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 Results may not be published yet.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

Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study enrolls 3,000 women at high risk for breast cancer to develop a better way to predict who will get the disease. Researchers will take small samples of breast tissue and blood to build a risk algorithm. No treatment is given; the goal is to improve risk assessment and monitoring.

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 a better way to predict which women are most likely to develop breast cancer, helping with earlier detection or prevention strategies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The algorithm may not be accurate enough for widespread use, and results may take years to validate.

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