NCT ID NCT07180901

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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tests a new care coordination system called PRONTO-HN for head and neck cancer patients. The system uses a risk model to identify patients likely to need radiation after surgery and then coordinates appointments and alerts to reduce delays. Researchers will compare 85 patients before and after the system is implemented to see if more patients start radiation within 42 days of surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Proactive care coordination system (PRONTO-HN)
What this could lead to
If successful, this system could help more head and neck cancer patients start radiotherapy on time after surgery, potentially improving survival and reducing recurrence.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study at one hospital, so results may not apply elsewhere. The intervention is administrative and may not reduce delays as expected.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 85 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
