If the run is still active, it transitions to cancelled immediately and terminates without returning any results. The run ends with status cancelled and stopReason: cancelled. You are billed for usage accrued before cancellation. If the run has already reached a terminal status (completed, failed, or cancelled), the endpoint returns the existing run unchanged.
