This trial investigates the effectiveness and safety of two treatment combinations for people with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received one to three prior treatments and were previously treated with lenalidomide. It compares mezigdomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone MeziVd against pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone PVd to see which is better for this condition. The study is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label trial sponsored by Celgene. Participants receive either the MeziVd combination or the PVd combination, with specified doses given on certain days according to the study plan. These treatments are given as drugs, and participants are randomly assigned to one of these two groups to compare their effects. The study will continue for up to approximately five years to evaluate long-term outcomes. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly through various assessments including measuring disease progression, survival, response to treatment, and quality of life using specific questionnaires EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-MY20. Blood samples may be checked for drug levels, and adverse events will be tracked. The main focus is progression-free survival, measured from randomization until disease worsening or death. Participants health and responses will be followed for up to five years, with ongoing visits and evaluations throughout this period.

This research aims to compare the effects of oral anticoagulation versus no anticoagulation in patients aged 55 and older who have had recent episodes of transient atrial fibrillation triggered by stress and have additional factors that increase their risk of stroke. The study is a multinational, investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, open-label trial evaluating the impact of non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants NOACs on preventing stroke and other serious cardiovascular events. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive one of several NOACs, such as edoxaban, apixaban, dabigatran, or rivaroxaban, prescribed by their physician for the duration of the follow-up, or to a control group that will not receive anticoagulants unless medically indicated during the study. The choice of specific NOAC and dose adjustments are determined by the prescribing doctor. The study excludes patients with certain conditions like chronic atrial fibrillation, severe kidney or liver disease, recent cardiac surgery, or bleeding risks. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to 24 months to assess the occurrence of non-hemorrhagic stroke, systemic embolism, vascular mortality, myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial thrombosis, amputation, and venous thromboembolism. Regular follow-up will include evaluation of these outcomes to measure the effectiveness and safety of anticoagulation compared to no anticoagulation. Participants will provide informed consent and remain under medical supervision throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the combination of capivasertib with CDK46 inhibitors and fulvestrant in adults with hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This Phase IbIII study aims to determine the safe dose for the combination treatment in the initial Phase Ib part and then compare its effectiveness and safety to standard treatment in the Phase III part in participants who have not received prior endocrine therapy in the advanced setting. In the Phase Ib portion, participants receive capivasertib combined with one of the CDK46 inhibitorspalbociclib, ribociclib, or abemacicliband fulvestrant to establish recommended doses. In the Phase III part, participants are randomly assigned to receive either capivasertib plus fulvestrant with a chosen CDK46 inhibitor palbociclib or ribociclib or fulvestrant with a CDK46 inhibitor alone. Treatments are given in 28-day cycles with specific dosing schedules for each drug, including oral doses of capivasertib and CDK46 inhibitors and injections of fulvestrant. Participants undergo screening and regular monitoring throughout the study, including assessments of treatment side effects, tumor progression, and blood samples for pharmacokinetics and biomarker analysis. The primary outcomes include dose-limiting toxicities and adverse events in Phase Ib and progression-free survival in Phase III, with follow-up lasting up to several years to evaluate overall survival, response rates, physical functioning, and quality of life.
