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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tested a new microwave imaging device called Wavelia #2 to see if it can detect and measure breast cancers and benign lumps. 73 women with breast abnormalities larger than 1 cm were scanned. The goal was to see how well the device finds lesions and tells cancerous from non-cancerous ones, using safe, non-ionizing radiation.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Wavelia #2 microwave breast imaging device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a safe, radiation-free screening tool for breast cancer detection.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 73 participants, so results may not apply to the general population. The device is still experimental and not yet proven for routine use.

Inclusion Criteria: * Informed Consent * Female subjects with an investigator assessed discrete breast abnormality of size \> 1cm * Able and willing to comply with the requirements of this study protocol * Negative urine pregnancy test on the day of microwave imaging procedure (if of childbearing potential) * intact breast skin (i.e., without bleeding lesion, no evidence of inflammation and/or erythema of the breast) * Able to comfortably lie reasonably still in a prone position for approximately 15 minutes * Have had biopsy more than 2 weeks prior to the microwave breast investigation (if applicable) Exclusion Criteria: * Have a cup size of A or whose breast is deemed too small to allow MBI assessment in the opinion of the investigator * Are pregnant or breast-feeding * Have had surgery on either breast within the past 12 months * Have any active or metallic implant other than a biopsy clip * Would be unsuitable for an MBI scan or unlikely to follow the protocol in the opinion of the Investigator
