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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 using a special MRI scanner combined with a radiation machine (MR-LINAC) during spinal radiation therapy can improve treatment results and quality of life. About 40 adults with cancer that has spread to the spine will receive stereotactic radiosurgery while being imaged with MR-LINAC. The goal is to see if this advanced imaging helps reduce symptoms and improve daily living.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

INCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. Age ≥ 18 years old 2. Radiographically documented disease of the spine within 4 weeks of registration (candidates with or without epidural disease allowed) 3.

Maximum of 3 contiguous vertebral levels involved with metastasis in the spine to be irradiated allowed 5. Diagnosis of cancer documented 6. Motor strength ≥ 4 out of 5 in the extremity affected by the level of spinal disease planned for radiation 7. Karnofsky Performance score (KPS) ≥ 40 or ECOG score ≤ 3 EXCLUSION CRITERIA: 1.
