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 Results may not be published yet.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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether using MRI-guided adaptive radiotherapy can safely eliminate extra safety margins around brain tumors, potentially reducing radiation-related brain damage. 168 adults with non-small cell lung cancer and 1-10 brain metastases will receive either the new MRI-guided approach or standard radiation. The main goal is to see if the new method lowers the rate of brain necrosis (tissue damage) while still controlling the cancer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
MRI-guided adaptive stereotactic radiotherapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could reduce radiation-related brain damage while still controlling brain metastases, improving quality of life for lung cancer patients.
What could go wrong
This is a phase 2 trial with 168 participants, so results are preliminary. The technique is complex and may not work for all patients or may still cause side effects.
