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 Results may not be published yet.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 compares standard moderate radiation (4 weeks) with shorter, more intense radiation schedules (1-2 weeks or a single session) for treating the prostate in men whose cancer has spread to a few other spots (oligometastatic). The goal is to see if the shorter treatments are as well-tolerated and effective, while being more convenient and cost-effective. About 168 men who have not had prior prostate cancer treatment (except hormone therapy) will take part.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Radiation therapy (hypofractionated external beam radiotherapy, high dose rate brachytherapy, permanent seed implant, or stereotactic body radiotherapy)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer men with oligometastatic prostate cancer a more convenient and cost-effective radiation option with similar safety and quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 2 trial with only 168 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The shorter radiation schedules could have different side effects or be less effective in the long run.
