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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 aims to create a large collection of blood samples from 2,500 people with or at high risk for cancer. Researchers will use these samples to study liquid biopsies, which are blood tests that may help detect cancer, track treatment response, and spot recurrence. Participants provide blood samples over time, and their medical information is collected for future research.

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 repository could help researchers develop better ways to detect and monitor cancer using simple blood tests.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study that does not test any treatment. It only collects samples for future research, so there is no direct benefit to participants.

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

Show the full entry requirements

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

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with either histological confirmation of a solid tumor or hematological malignancy, OR patients identified as high-risk for cancer (based on identified aberration in cancer predisposition gene or on hormonal and/or family history without known aberration). 2. Patient must be ≥ 18 years old. 3. All patients must have signed and dated an informed consent form for this LIBERATE study. 4. If patients are being co-consented for a separate primary research study listed in Appendix I, they must fulfill the eligibility criteria for that separate primary research study. If there is a discrepancy in the eligibility criteria between protocols, the separate primary research study's criteria take precedence. Exclusion Criteria: None
