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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study looks back at medical records of 200 people who received custom titanium implants to repair defects in the skull or face. The goal is to see how well the implants work and how safe they are over the long term. Participants include children, teens, and adults who had the surgery as part of their normal care.

Why investors are watching

Materialise is running a retrospective study of its porous titanium implants for skull and face reconstruction, tracking safety and performance across 200 children, teens, and adults. For a small-cap company, this readout matters because it tests the long-term reliability of a core product line, and a clear result could support broader adoption in a niche surgical market.

If it works: A positive result could strengthen the evidence base for these implants, which may help Materialise win more hospital contracts and expand use across age groups. That could translate into steadier revenue from a product already in clinical use.

If it fails: If the study shows poor long-term outcomes or safety issues, it could hurt the product's reputation and sales. Trials and retrospective reviews can also face delays or data problems, and a weak result would leave the company without a key marketing point.
