Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of eloralintide, a drug given by injection, in adults who are obese or overweight but do not have type 2 diabetes. This Phase 3 study includes both a main phase and an extension phase to understand the drug's impact on body weight and overall health in this population. The study aims to compare eloralintide with a placebo to see how well it works in reducing weight. Participants will receive either eloralintide or a placebo, both administered under the skin once a week. The main study phase will last about 75 weeks, during which participants will be regularly monitored. Those participants who have prediabetes will have the option to continue into an extension phase lasting an additional 2 years to further assess long-term effects. During the study, participants will have their body weight measured at the start and throughout the trial, with the primary outcome being the percent change in body weight at week 64 compared to baseline. Researchers will also monitor safety and any side effects. Participants will be asked about their weight history and health conditions, and they must maintain stable body weight before joining. The total involvement time for most participants will be about 75 weeks, with longer follow-up for some.

This research aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of eloralintide in adults with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who are also obese or overweight. The study is organized under a master protocol called YDAO, which supports two separate studies: YSA1 for participants who are unable or unwilling to use Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy, and YSA2 for those who have been using PAP therapy for at least three months and intend to continue it during the study. This is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial focused on this specific population. Participants will receive either eloralintide or a placebo, both given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. They will be assigned to one of two groups based on their current PAP therapy use: those not using PAP (YSA1) and those continuing PAP (YSA2). The study treatment and observation will last about 76 weeks, allowing detailed evaluation over time. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including polysomnography to measure the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and body weight changes from baseline to week 64. Researchers will monitor weight, sleep apnea severity, and safety throughout the trial. The long participation period includes screening, treatment, and follow-up to capture comprehensive data on eloralintide’s effects and tolerability.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of the drug orforglipron compared with a placebo on cardiovascular outcomes in adults who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate major adverse cardiovascular events over a long period. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo orally. The study is event-driven and will continue until the occurrence of major cardiovascular events or up to about 5 years. The treatments are administered without revealing to participants which group they are in to ensure unbiased results. During the study, participants will be monitored for the time to the first occurrence of a major cardiovascular event. Researchers will collect data from baseline through the end of the study, which lasts approximately 5 years. Regular assessments will help evaluate the safety and effects of the treatments on cardiovascular health in this population.

Researchers are evaluating the changes in symptoms and functional limitations in adults with symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), including both obstructive and non-obstructive types. This Phase 3 trial aims to compare the effects of sotagliflozin, an oral medication, to a placebo in these participants. The study focuses on how these treatments affect heart-related quality of life as measured by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Clinical Summary Score (KCCQ CSS) over 26 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either sotagliflozin tablets or matching placebo tablets once daily. The study includes participants with specific heart function criteria, including left ventricular outflow tract gradients for obstructive or non-obstructive HCM and stable background therapy. The treatment period lasts 26 weeks, during which participants take the assigned tablets daily. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including symptom evaluations and functional status measurements. Researchers will monitor changes from the start of the study to week 26 using the KCCQ CSS to evaluate treatment effects on heart symptoms and quality of life. Safety and adherence to medication will also be observed during this time.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of muvalaplin on reducing cardiovascular risk in adults with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels who either have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or are at risk for a heart attack or stroke. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on adults with high Lp(a) levels and prior or potential cardiovascular events. The study aims to assess the time to the first major adverse cardiovascular event over about 5.25 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either muvalaplin or a placebo, both administered orally. The study includes individuals with Lp(a) levels of at least 175 nanomoles per liter who have had a prior cardiovascular event within 10 years or are at risk for a first event due to conditions such as coronary artery disease, carotid stenosis, peripheral artery disease, high coronary artery calcium score, reduced kidney function with diabetes, or other high-risk factors. The treatment period lasts through the study duration, with close monitoring. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated to track the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events, including heart attacks and strokes. Safety assessments will monitor blood pressure, kidney function, and heart failure status among other health indicators. The primary outcome measures the time to the first major cardiovascular event from baseline up to the end of the study, which spans approximately 5.25 years.
