Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of rilzabrutinib compared to placebo in adults with active Immunoglobulin G4 Related Disease (IgG4-RD). This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study aims to measure the time until the first IgG4-RD clinical disease flare during a 52-week treatment period. Additional goals include assessing disease control, flare-free rates, use of glucocorticoid rescue, and monitoring safety through adverse events, laboratory tests, and electrocardiograms. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral rilzabrutinib tablets or placebo for 52 weeks. Glucocorticoids may be used as rescue medication if needed. The study includes a screening period lasting 4 to 6 weeks before treatment begins, followed by the 52-week double-blind treatment phase, and a 2-week follow-up after treatment. An optional open-label extension lasting up to 108 weeks is also available for participants. During the study, participants will attend 16 visits for assessments, which may include clinical evaluations, imaging tests such as CT, MRI, PET, or ultrasound to monitor disease activity, and laboratory tests. Researchers will track time to disease flare and collect data on flare-free rates, safety parameters, and medication use. Participants' vaccination status and contraceptive use will be monitored according to local guidelines, and overall study participation could last up to 60 weeks or longer if joining the extension phase.

Researchers are evaluating a new treatment called ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This study compares I-DXd to chemotherapy to see if it helps people live longer overall and live longer without their cancer worsening. It is a Phase 3, open-label trial focused on patients who have progressed on prior therapies and have evidence of metastatic disease. Participants receive either I-DXd through an intravenous infusion every 3 weeks or docetaxel chemotherapy administered every 3 weeks. Prednisone tablets are also given daily as part of the treatment plan. Before each I-DXd dose, premedication is provided to help prevent nausea and vomiting using a combination of drugs such as corticosteroids and anti-nausea medicines. Treatment continues until disease progression, unacceptable side effects, or other reasons to stop. During the study, researchers monitor overall survival and how long patients live without their cancer progressing, for up to about 36 months. Participants undergo tumor tissue collection, scans, and assessments to track disease status and side effects. Safety is closely watched throughout treatment. The study includes men aged 18 and older with confirmed prostate cancer and metastatic disease who have previously received certain hormone therapies but no prior taxane chemotherapy for mCRPC.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effects of a combination treatment using BNT113 and pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that is positive for human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16+) and expresses the PD-L1 protein with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. This Phase II/III trial includes patients whose cancer cannot be treated with local therapies and who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapy for their current disease condition. The trial consists of two parts. Part A is a non-randomized Safety Run-In Phase to confirm the safety and tolerability of BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab at the selected dose. Part B is a randomized phase that compares BNT113 plus pembrolizumab against pembrolizumab alone as first-line treatment. Patients in Part A continue their treatment without randomization. Treatments are given by intravenous injection or infusion, and patients may receive either combination therapy or monotherapy for up to 24 months. There is also an optional pre-screening phase to test tumor samples for HPV16 DNA and PD-L1 expression before entering the main trial. Participants undergo regular assessments including tumor measurements based on RECIST 1.1 criteria confirmed by independent review. Researchers monitor treatment-emergent adverse events for up to 27 months in Part A and evaluate overall survival and progression-free survival for up to 48 months in Part B. Tumor tissue samples are collected before treatment to confirm eligibility. The study involves ongoing safety monitoring and efficacy evaluations throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of two different doses of remibrutinib compared to a placebo in adults and adolescents with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). This phase 3 study aims to determine how well remibrutinib works in treating this chronic skin condition characterized by painful abscesses and inflammatory nodules. The study lasts a total of 76 weeks and includes several phases: up to 4 weeks for screening, followed by a 16-week double-blind treatment period where participants receive either remibrutinib Dose A, Dose B, or a matching placebo. After this, there is a 52-week treatment period where all participants receive remibrutinib (Dose A or Dose B). Finally, a 4-week safety follow-up period occurs without treatment. Participants who stop treatment early are encouraged to stay in the study and complete the safety follow-up. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for clinical response to treatment, focusing on the proportion achieving a 50% improvement in HS symptoms by week 16. Researchers will monitor safety and tolerability throughout the study, including during the follow-up period. Various evaluations such as physical exams and clinical assessments will be conducted to measure treatment effects and ensure participant safety over the entire 76-week duration.

Researchers are evaluating the short-term and long-term safety and effectiveness of belimumab in adults diagnosed with early systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who have positive autoantibodies and continue to have active disease despite stable initial treatment. This phase 4, prospective, open-label study aims to describe how belimumab works in this specific group over a three-year period. Participants will receive belimumab (GSK1550188) administered by subcutaneous injection. There is one treatment arm where all participants will receive this drug. The study lasts for three years, during which participants will be regularly monitored to assess disease activity and treatment safety. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including clinical evaluations to measure disease activity, laboratory tests, and questionnaires to track health status. The main outcome is the percentage of participants who achieve Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS) by week 52. Safety and efficacy will be closely monitored throughout the study period, with follow-up visits and evaluations scheduled at regular intervals.

Researchers are evaluating how well elacestrant works compared to standard endocrine therapy in adults with node-positive, Estrogen Receptor-positive (ER+), Human Epidermal Growth Factor-2 negative (HER2-) early breast cancer who are at high risk of the cancer returning. This is a Phase 3 global, multicenter, randomized, open-label study focusing on participants who have had early invasive breast cancer removed and meet specific receptor and risk criteria. The study aims to understand which treatment better prevents invasive breast cancer over up to five years. Participants will receive either elacestrant or one of several standard endocrine therapies, including anastrozole, letrozole, exemestane, or tamoxifen, all given as oral tablets. Treatments will be administered according to the study plan, with careful monitoring throughout the trial. The study includes adults who have already received between 24 and 60 months of prior endocrine therapy, with or without certain inhibitors, and who have completed or stopped these treatments as required. During the study, participants will be monitored for invasive breast cancer-free survival for up to five years. Researchers will perform regular assessments to track treatment effects, side effects, and cancer recurrence. The study also includes safety monitoring and may involve additional tests or evaluations as needed to ensure participant well-being throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of lunsekimig compared with a placebo in adults aged 40 to 80 years who have inadequately controlled Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) characterized by an eosinophilic phenotype. This Phase 2b/Phase 3 study focuses on patients with COPD who have specific lung function criteria, prior exacerbations, and blood eosinophil counts, aiming to better manage their condition using a new subcutaneous treatment. Eligible participants will receive subcutaneous injections of either lunsekimig or a matching placebo during a randomized intervention period lasting approximately 48 weeks. The study includes a screening period of up to 4 weeks before treatment and a follow-up period of about 8 weeks after treatment, making the total study duration up to 60 weeks. Participants remain in one of three study arms throughout this timeline. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to measure the annualized rate of moderate-to-severe COPD exacerbations from baseline up to 48 weeks. Researchers will assess safety, tolerability, lung function, and other health outcomes. The study collects data on participants' lung function, exacerbation frequency, and blood markers, along with adherence to treatment and safety follow-up over the entire study period.

Researchers are tracking patients with Fabry disease through an ongoing international, multi-center observational program called the Fabry Registry. This program collects routine clinical data from patients regardless of their treatment status to better understand the disease's variability, progression, and natural history. It also focuses on enhancing patient care by supporting the development of monitoring recommendations and evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme, a treatment for Fabry disease. The study includes a Fabry Pregnancy Sub-registry, which is a voluntary, international, longitudinal observation program that monitors pregnancy outcomes for women enrolled in the Fabry Registry who are pregnant or have been pregnant. This sub-registry collects medical and obstetric history, pregnancy, and birth data, along with infant growth information up to 36 months postpartum, regardless of the specific treatment received. No experimental treatments are administered in either registry; patients continue receiving routine care as determined by their physicians. Participants contribute data through clinical assessments and standard care evaluations performed by their doctors. The study measures long-term outcomes including safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme over up to 33 years, as well as pregnancy outcomes and infant growth data. The program helps fulfill regulatory requirements and supports research while tracking patient health over extended periods without altering their usual care.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of lunsekimig in adults with asthma who have previously completed related parent studies. It is a phase 2, open-label extension study offering eligible participants continued treatment to assess ongoing outcomes. The study focuses on adults who have stable asthma managed with moderate or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids and other controller medications. Participants will receive lunsekimig as a subcutaneous injection in solution form. The study duration extends up to 100 weeks, with treatment lasting up to 96 weeks. This extension study follows participants from previous trials, allowing them to continue lunsekimig treatment while being closely monitored. During the study, participants will undergo regular visits and procedures to track safety and efficacy. Researchers will monitor the number of participants experiencing any treatment-emergent adverse events, including serious or special interest events, from the start to week 100. Participants must comply with contraception requirements and attend scheduled assessments throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with advanced solid tumors or blood cancers who have previously taken part in other pembrolizumab-based studies. This phase 3 study includes participants who are either currently on treatment or in follow-up from prior parent studies. It aims to understand how well pembrolizumab works over an extended period, up to approximately 10 years, by observing overall survival and safety outcomes. The study has three phases: First Course Phase, Survival Follow-up Phase, and Second Course Phase. Participants who were receiving pembrolizumab, pembrolizumab-based combinations, or lenvatinib in their parent studies will continue treatment in the First Course Phase, completing up to 35 doses every 3 weeks or 17 doses every 6 weeks. Those in the Follow-up Phase will enter the Survival Follow-up Phase without additional treatment but will be monitored. Participants eligible for a Second Course Phase, who have not received other anticancer treatments since their prior pembrolizumab dose and meet health criteria, may receive up to 17 doses every 3 weeks or 8 doses every 6 weeks of pembrolizumab or its combinations. Some may also receive other study drugs such as olaparib, MK-4280, MK-4280A, or pembrolizumab with berahyaluronidase alfa. Participants will be involved in regular treatment visits, safety checks, and long-term monitoring for up to about 10 years to assess overall survival. Researchers will evaluate clinical outcomes, monitor any side effects, and check organ function and physical health status. The study includes detailed eligibility screening, including physical assessments and adherence to contraception requirements for women of childbearing potential. Safety follow-up is ongoing to ensure participant well-being throughout the study.
