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 Results may not be published yet.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

Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This pilot study tested whether routine genetic analysis of thyroid cancer samples could help surgeons decide how much of the thyroid to remove. Only 2 patients were enrolled. The goal was to see if a larger trial is possible, not to change treatment yet.

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 approach could help doctors decide whether to remove part or all of the thyroid gland based on the cancer's genetic risk, potentially avoiding unnecessary surgery.
What could go wrong
This was a very small pilot study with only 2 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The main goal was to test feasibility, not to prove the approach works.
