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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study will follow 2500 cancer patients with bone metastases to better understand why some respond to radiation therapy and others do not. Researchers will collect data to build tools that predict pain relief and survival, and to create a platform for testing new treatments. The goal is to improve quality of life and personalize care for patients with bone metastases.

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 prediction tools for pain relief and survival, and faster testing of new treatments for bone metastases.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it does not test a new treatment directly. The prediction tools may not be accurate enough to change clinical practice.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
