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 Results may not be published yet.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

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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looked at small molecules called metabolites in breast cancer tumors to find patterns that could help understand the disease better. Researchers analyzed 52 tumor samples and some blood samples from patients who had surgery. The goal was to identify possible biomarkers for diagnosis or treatment, not to test a new therapy.

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 could lead to better understanding of breast cancer biology and new biomarkers for diagnosis or treatment targets.
What could go wrong
This is a small, retrospective study with only 52 samples, so findings may not apply to all patients or lead to practical tests.
