Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of dazodalibep in adults with Sjögren's Syndrome. This phase 3 open-label extension study focuses on participants who have previously received dazodalibep or placebo in earlier phase 3 trials and completed those studies through Week 48. Participants will receive dazodalibep intravenously during this long-term extension study. The first dose is administered around Week 48 (+28 days) following the prior phase 3 studies. The study monitors safety and tolerability over an extended period to assess treatment-emergent adverse events up to 152 weeks. During the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations to monitor their health and any side effects. Researchers will collect data on adverse events that emerge during treatment. The overall goal is to gather long-term safety information to better understand how participants tolerate dazodalibep when used over an extended time frame.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of a triple therapy inhaler called BGF MDI containing budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate compared with a dual therapy inhaler called GFF MDI containing glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who have a higher risk of heart and lung problems. This Phase III randomized, double-blind, parallel group study takes place at multiple centers and focuses on cardiopulmonary outcomes in these patients. Participants receive either the BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily or the GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily. The treatments are inhaled using metered dose inhalers. The study compares these two therapies over time to see how they affect the time until the first severe heart or lung event occurs. The study design ensures that neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given to reduce bias. During the study, participants will have regular visits to the study site or virtual visits to complete assessments. Researchers will monitor lung function, symptoms, and blood tests, including blood eosinophil counts and COPD assessment test scores. The main outcome measured is the time to the first severe cardiac or COPD event, with follow-up lasting up to three years. Safety and adherence to treatment will also be closely observed throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating how well nipocalimab works compared to a placebo in adults with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a chronic disease where the immune system attacks healthy tissues causing swelling and redness in various organs. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study focused on adults aged 18 to 75 who have active SLE symptoms and have been diagnosed for at least 24 weeks. Participants will receive either nipocalimab or a placebo alongside standard of care treatments, which include protocol-defined topical and systemic therapies. Nipocalimab and placebo are administered as drugs while maintaining background treatments. The study monitors participants over time, including a primary outcome measurement at Week 52 to assess the percentage of participants achieving a systemic lupus erythematosus responder index (SRI)-4 composite response. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for disease activity, vital signs, and safety. Screening includes physical examinations, medical history review, vital signs, and electrocardiograms. Researchers will monitor disease activity scores and evaluate response to the treatment at Week 52. Safety is closely observed throughout the study, with particular attention to any adverse reactions or changes in health status. The total participation and follow-up extend at least through Week 52.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of icotrokinra (JNJ-77242113) compared to a placebo in adults with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA). This study includes both participants who have previously used biologic treatments and those who have not. The goal is to assess how well the drug reduces the signs and symptoms of PsA by the 16th week of treatment. This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind clinical trial designed to provide reliable evidence on the drug's impact on this condition. Participants will receive either icotrokinra or a placebo. The treatments will be administered according to the study protocol, but specific dosing details are not provided. Participants will be monitored over 16 weeks to evaluate their response to the treatment, focusing on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 response, which measures improvement in disease activity. The study compares the active drug against placebo to determine its efficacy and safety in this patient group. During the study, participants will undergo assessments to monitor their psoriatic arthritis symptoms, including joint swelling and tenderness, as well as blood tests to measure inflammation markers like C-reactive protein. Female participants who can become pregnant will have pregnancy tests before and during the study to ensure safety. Researchers will collect data on disease activity and safety throughout the study period to understand the treatment's effects. Total participation time and additional follow-up details are not specified.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of three different dosing schedules of povorcitinib on lung function in adults with moderately to severely uncontrolled asthma. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to assess both the safety and efficacy of povorcitinib in improving respiratory outcomes for this patient group. Participants have a history of asthma treatment with medium- to high-dose ICS-LABA therapy and meet specific lung function criteria before enrollment. Participants will receive one of three povorcitinib dosing regimens or a placebo while continuing their background ICS-LABA therapy. The study includes multiple treatment arms to compare the effects of different doses. The intervention period lasts 24 weeks, during which pulmonary function and other health measures will be monitored. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments, including lung function tests measuring pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (pre-BD FEV1) at baseline and week 24. Researchers will also monitor safety and collect data on asthma exacerbations and symptom control. The total participation time covers the treatment duration and follow-up evaluations to assess changes in pulmonary function and overall health status.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the effectiveness of astegolimab in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have already completed a 52-week treatment in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study focuses on participants aged 40 to 90 years and is a Phase III open-label extension trial designed to continue monitoring patients after their initial treatment period. Participants will receive astegolimab as a subcutaneous injection every two weeks during this extension study. This treatment continues from the prior placebo-controlled phase, allowing researchers to observe any ongoing effects and safety concerns over a longer period. The study does not include a placebo group during this extension phase, and all participants receive the active treatment. Throughout the study, researchers will closely monitor participants for any adverse events up to 12 weeks after the last dose of astegolimab. Participants will be assessed regularly to ensure their safety and to gather data on the treatment's long-term impact. The total duration of participant involvement depends on when they completed the parent studies but involves continued monitoring during and after the treatment period.

Researchers are conducting a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of tezepelumab in adults aged 40 to 80 years with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Participants must have experienced at least two moderate or one severe COPD exacerbations in the year before joining and be receiving inhaled maintenance therapy. The study focuses on adults who continue to experience symptoms despite current treatments and aims to assess the impact of tezepelumab on COPD exacerbations. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive monthly subcutaneous injections of either one of two doses of tezepelumab or a placebo. Treatment will last for a minimum of 52 weeks and may extend up to 76 weeks. After the treatment period, there will be a 12-week safety follow-up phase to monitor participants after stopping the study drug. The study compares tezepelumab to placebo to determine its efficacy and safety over this extended period. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments to monitor their COPD status and any exacerbations. The main outcome measured is the annual rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations from the start of treatment through up to 76 weeks. Safety and tolerability will also be closely monitored throughout the treatment and follow-up periods. This long-term involvement ensures comprehensive data on how tezepelumab affects COPD progression and exacerbation frequency.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a fixed-dose combination of fluticasone propionate (Fp) and albuterol sulfate (ABS) delivered via an integrated electronic module multidose dry powder inhaler (eMDPI) compared to ABS alone in reducing severe clinical asthma exacerbations in patients with asthma. The study also assesses the efficacy of a low dose of Fp/ABS versus ABS and examines the impact on systemic corticosteroid exposure. This is a phase 3 randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial involving patients diagnosed with asthma for at least one year. Participants will receive either a high dose or low dose of Fp/ABS or ABS alone through oral inhalation powder during a double-blind treatment period lasting a minimum of 24 weeks. The study includes a 2-week screening phase, a 2 to 4-week run-in period, and the treatment phase. Because this is an event-driven study, the total duration for individual participants may extend up to approximately 42 months depending on enrollment timing and study completion. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for time to first severe clinical asthma exacerbation while using the inhaler device. Safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study. Researchers will also track systemic corticosteroid use and overall asthma control. The minimum participation time is 28 weeks, including screening and run-in, with extended monitoring possible based on study events and criteria.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Eloralintide (LY3841136) in adults who have osteoarthritis knee pain and are either obese or overweight. Conducted under a master protocol supporting two independent studies, the trial focuses on participants with a body mass index of 27 or higher who experience knee osteoarthritis symptoms such as pain and stiffness. The study is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to provide clear evidence on this treatment's impact. Participants will receive either Eloralintide or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The study includes a screening phase followed by about 75 weeks of participation. The treatments aim to assess changes in body weight and knee pain severity. The study excludes participants with recent surgeries for obesity, diabetes, active knee infections, recent serious heart events, or recent use of weight loss medications. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for changes in body weight and knee pain using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscale. Researchers will track safety and effectiveness through scheduled visits and assessments over the approximately 75-week period. The trial will help determine if Eloralintide provides benefits in managing osteoarthritis knee pain alongside obesity or overweight conditions.
