This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the efficacy of astegolimab in adults aged 40 to 90 years with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. It focuses on participants who have completed a 52-week placebo-controlled treatment period in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study is a phase 3, open-label extension to gather extended safety information on this drug in COPD patients. Participants from the parent studies who qualify will receive subcutaneous injections of astegolimab every two weeks throughout the study until it ends. This open-label extension allows all participants to receive the active drug without placebo comparison. The study continues treatment beyond the initial 52-week period to monitor long-term effects. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events up to 12 weeks after their last dose of astegolimab. Researchers will collect safety data to understand the incidence of any side effects. The study involves regular assessments and follow-ups to ensure participant well-being, with the total duration lasting until July 2034.

This research aims to compare two asthma inhalers that use different propellants in people with mild to moderate asthma. The study evaluates whether an investigational inhaler with a new climate-friendly propellant, HFA-152a, works as safely and effectively as inhalers using the existing HFA-134a propellant. This global Phase II study plans to enroll 468 patients in Europe, Latin America, Ukraine, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. Participants will use one of three inhaler treatments in a randomized, double-blind crossover design the investigational CHF5993 pMDI with HFA-152a, CHF5993 pMDI with HFA-134a, or CHF718 pMDI with HFA-134a. Each inhaler is taken as two puffs twice daily. The study compares lung function effects of these inhalers during treatment periods. During the trial, participants will be assessed for lung function through measurements like forced expiratory volume in 1 second FEV1 at baseline and after treatment. Researchers will monitor safety, treatment adherence, and asthma control over the study period. Participants undergo scheduled visits for these evaluations, with the study expected to complete in June 2027.
