Answered by AI
How many participants have been enrolled in this experiment?
"Currently, this trial is no longer recruiting. The final update to the study was made on October 24th 2022. For those still looking for a clinical trial related to mycosis fungoides, there are 1796 available studies and two trials actively enrolling participants who wish to receive fenretinide treatment."
Answered by AI
Does this investigation represent a pioneering endeavor?
"Fenretinide has been under clinical investigation since 2020, when Laurent Pharmaceuticals Inc. conducted the first trial with 508 participants. Subsequently, it was approved for Phase 2 and 3 trials and there are currently two active studies spanning 28 cities in two different nations."
Answered by AI
Is the recruitment for this experiment still ongoing?
"This clinical trial closed its recruitment phase on October 24th 2022. If you're searching for alternative studies, 1796 investigations into mycosis fungoides are actively recruiting and 2 trials of Fenretinide have open participant slots."
Answered by AI
Could you elaborate on the history of Fenretinide trials that have been conducted?
"Presently, two medical trials are underway to further explore the effects of Fenretinide with one trial being in phase 3. Most of these studies for this compound take place in Winston-Salem but there is a network encompassing 33 sites conducting experiments on it."
