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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is collecting information and samples from 1,500 people with TP53 gene changes (linked to Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, a condition that raises cancer risk) and their relatives. Researchers want to better understand how these gene variants affect cancer risk and how accurate family history is. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is to gather knowledge to improve future care.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Individuals with a TP53 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant identified in blood or saliva, * Individuals with variants of uncertain significance in TP53 may be eligible at the PI's discretion, * Blood relatives of individuals with a TP53 variant, who may be presumed obligate carriers or healthy controls, * Individuals who meet Classic or Chompret LFS criteria whether or not they have a TP53 gene variant, * Individuals may enroll their deceased relatives in the study. * Individuals with a known TP53 variant that is not LFS, but rather ACE, CHIP, or mosaicism. * Individuals participating in other LFS studies can still enroll in LiFT UP. Investigators may be collaborators. Exclusion Criteria: * Individuals who decline to sign consent * Individuals who are unable to give consent or assent and are without a designated healthcare proxy
