NCT ID NCT07571499

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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tests a digital tool called TRANSCEND-XR that uses extended reality (like virtual reality) to help adolescents and young adults who have finished treatment for testicular cancer. The tool aims to teach them about long-term side effects, when to see a doctor, and how to stay healthy. Researchers will first test if the tool is easy to use, then compare it to standard follow-up care in 245 participants.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
extended reality digital educational tool
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new way to help young testicular cancer survivors better understand their long-term health needs and take an active role in follow-up care.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study testing feasibility and knowledge improvement, not a treatment. The tool may not significantly change health outcomes or be widely adopted.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 245 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Jan 2027

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Jun 2029

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

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

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Any person assigned male at birth who is diagnosed with stage I-III TC (germ cell tumour of the testicles). 2. Aged between 15 and 39 years at the time of study inclusion. 3. Completed curative treatment comprising of at least one standard treatment modality (surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) for treatment of their cancer. A maximum of 9 months from the end of curative treatment will be allowed. 4. Permitted treatment modalities: * Localised disease: orchiectomy with or without chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. * Metastatic disease: orchiectomy and chemotherapy or radiotherapy or retroperitoneal surgery, or a combination of aforementioned treatments. First-line treatment only allowed. 5. Willing and able to provide a valid and signed informed consent and/or assent, as appropriate. 6. ECOG performance status 0-2. 7. Patients accept to use personal smartphone 8. Patients able to read and understand the local language Exclusion Criteria: 1. Non-testicular germ cell tumours (e.g., mediastinal primary or retroperitoneal primary tumours). 2. Non-germ cell TC. 3. Previous chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery for TC other than that allowed in IC 4. 4. History of contralateral TC. 5. Any illness that would prevent the AYA TC survivor from giving a valid and signed informed consent, as assessed by the investigator. 6. Any illness that might be exacerbated by the use of an XR digital tool, as assessed by the investigator, including history of severe motion sickness, brain lesions and epilepsy. 7. Uncontrolled medical condition such as uncontrolled infection, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus or cardiac disease (including but not limited to grade 2 or higher cardiac failure, arrythmia, unstable angina, history of myocardial infract in the 6 months which, in the opinion of the treating physician, would influence the assessment of long-term side effect of TC treatment. 8. AYA TC survivors with a "currently active" second malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancers, superficial non-invasive (pTa or pTis) TCC of the bladder, or intratubular germ cell neoplasia. Patients are not considered to have a "currently active" malignancy if they have completed therapy and are free of disease for ≥ 3 years. 9. Chemotherapy or radiotherapy for malignant disease other than TC within the past 3 years.
