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.

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 Results may not be published yet.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 aims to develop a blood test that uses artificial intelligence to analyze tumor material in the blood of people with triple negative breast cancer. The goal is to better predict which patients need more chemotherapy after surgery and which can safely avoid it. Researchers will collect blood and tissue samples from 130 participants to build a test that guides treatment decisions.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Triple negative (ER negative, PR negative and Her2 negative as defined by local standards). ER \<10% is acceptable. * Patients who have completed a minimum of 8 weeks of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. * A cohort of TNBC patients who are awaiting surgery that have clinical or radiological evidence of residual tumor prior to surgery. This evaluation will be made at the discretion of the treating physician.
