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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study follows 100 men with low- or very low-risk prostate cancer who choose active surveillance instead of immediate treatment. Researchers will use questionnaires, exams, biopsies, and MRIs every 6 months to 2-3 years to monitor disease progression over 5 years. The goal is to see if remote monitoring is feasible and to build a tissue and data resource for future research.

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 improve how doctors monitor low-risk prostate cancer, potentially reducing unnecessary treatments while catching progression early.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not testing a new treatment. It may not lead to direct changes in care, and results depend on long-term follow-up.
