Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any openings available for participants in this experiment?
"The clinicaltrials.gov website states that this specific trial, which was initially posted on June 10th 2020 and last updated September 1st 2022, is not recruiting anymore. Fortunately, there are still over 3200 trials actively accepting patients at the present moment."
Have there been any other investigations examining the effects of Pelareorep?
"Pelareorep first emerged as a viable medical treatment in 1997 when it was studied at City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center. Since then, 1192 completed trials have taken place and 935 are currently recruiting patients from across the United States; Miami has notably become a hub for these trial sites."
What is the extent of implementation for this trial?
"Currently, 19 medical centres are participating in this clinical trial. A few of the more well-known sites include University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Miami, Carle Cancer Center in Urbana and Ochsner Clinic Foundation in New Orleans. The other 16 locations can be found on clinicialtrials.gov"
What is the density of participants in this trial?
"Unfortunately, no new patients are being recruited for this trial at the moment. The study was initially posted on 10th June 2020 and its last update was on 1st September 2022. However, there is a wealth of other research studies looking to recruit breast cancer patients (2290) as well as those with Pelareorep (935)."
For what therapeutic purposes is Pelareorep regularly prescribed?
"Pelareorep is usually employed to battle esophageal neoplasms malignant. Additionally, it has been demonstrated to effectively address conditions such as malignant peritoneal neoplasm, non-small cell lung carcinoma (nsclc), and metastatic neoplasia."
