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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing whether an investigational oral drug called MRT-2359, when combined with the standard prostate cancer drug apalutamide, can lower PSA levels in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study includes about 25 adults with a specific genetic mutation in the androgen receptor. The main goal is to see if the combination reduces PSA, while also checking safety and other signs of anti-tumor activity.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
MRT-2359 (an investigational oral drug) combined with apalutamide (an approved prostate cancer drug)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for men with castration-resistant prostate cancer, potentially slowing disease progression and lowering PSA levels.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase, small trial (25 participants). The combination may not work as hoped, and side effects are possible. Results may not apply to all patients.
