NCT ID NCT06581549

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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study is looking at tumor samples from 220 people with pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma, a rare cancer linked to asbestos. Researchers will analyze the genes and immune cells in these tumors to find patterns that could predict which treatments work best. The goal is to improve personalized medicine for this hard-to-treat cancer.

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 research could identify new drug targets and better ways to match treatments to individual mesothelioma patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study analyzing existing samples, not testing a new treatment directly. Results may not lead to immediate therapies.
