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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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 compared two ways to close skin after colorectal cancer surgery: a tissue adhesive (skin bond) and traditional skin stapling. Researchers looked at wound infection rates within 30 days, pain, and cost in 304 patients. The goal was to see if skin bond leads to fewer infections and is more cost-effective.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
2-octyl cyanoacrylate (skin bond tissue adhesive)
What this could lead to
If skin bond works better, it could reduce wound infections and lower costs for colorectal cancer surgery patients.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study, but it only compares two closure methods—it does not test a new treatment for cancer itself. Results may not apply to all patients or surgeries.
