NCT ID NCT07561190

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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study looks at the immune system inside malignant pleural mesothelioma, a rare and hard-to-treat cancer. Researchers will analyze tumor samples from 300 adults to understand why immunotherapy helps only some patients. The goal is to find clues that could make these treatments more effective in the future.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population includes patients diagnosed with Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM). Both prospective and retrospective cohorts will be included to ensure a comprehensive and biologically representative characterization of the disease. Eligible patients will have histologically confirmed MPM and available tumor biological samples obtained from diagnostic biopsies, surgical resections, or pleural effusions. Samples will include both fresh frozen (FF) material and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) archival specimens.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.
