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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This trial tests whether a wearable device and a personalized prehabilitation program can help adults recover better after surgery for pancreatic cancer or related conditions. Participants will wear a monitor to track vital signs and activity, and follow a program of exercise, nutrition, and wellbeing support before and after surgery. The study compares their outcomes to a similar group who received standard care, looking at complications and recovery over 12 months.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A wearable monitoring device (Corsano CardioWatch) and a personalized prehabilitation and rehabilitation program (Prehab4Cancer) combining exercise, nutrition, and wellbeing support.
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could reduce complications and speed recovery after pancreatic surgery, potentially improving outcomes for patients.
What could go wrong
The trial is early and compares against historical controls, which may limit reliability. The intervention may not reduce complications, and wearable use could be burdensome for some patients.
