What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a remote rehabilitation app can improve shoulder and neck recovery in oral cancer patients who had neck dissection surgery. 80 patients are randomly assigned to either standard home exercise materials or the app, which provides daily reminders and lets patients send videos to their rehab team. Researchers measure shoulder function and neck-related quality of life before surgery and at 10 days, 1 month, and 3 months after.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
remote rehabilitation app and exercise videos
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide an effective, convenient way for oral cancer patients to recover shoulder and neck function at home after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The app-based approach may not work for patients who are not comfortable with technology.
