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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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

Researchers at Rigshospitalet in Denmark are testing whether adults newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia can safely measure their own blood counts and give themselves blood and platelet transfusions at home. The study trains and certifies 22 participants to use a home blood-count device, administer transfusions, and check blood pressure, pulse, oxygen, and temperature before and after each transfusion. The team tracks technical problems, transfusion reactions, unplanned hospital visits, and quality of life to see whether home care can replace some day-hospital visits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Home-based blood count measurement and self-administered blood and platelet transfusions
What this could lead to
If it works, patients with AML could spend fewer days at the hospital and manage some transfusion care at home, with fewer nurse visits needed.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-arm feasibility study of 22 people, so it cannot prove home transfusions are as safe as hospital ones. Patients must be able to learn the technique, and serious transfusion reactions or device errors remain possible.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * ≥ 18 years old * newly diagnosed with AML within four weeks * scheduled to receive home-based chemotherapy. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who do not understand or speak Danish * Incapable of performing home-based CBC measurements and administration of transfusions. * Patients will be discontinued if they do not achieve remission after the second chemotherapy cycle.
