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.

Researchers are investigating the safety and effectiveness of eloralintide compared to a placebo in adults with persistent obesity or overweight. This includes people with or without type 2 diabetes who are already on stable weekly incretin therapy. The study is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind trial focusing on this specific group to better understand treatment outcomes. Participants will receive either eloralintide or a placebo, both given by subcutaneous injection once a week. The study compares these two treatments over the course of the trial. Participants must continue their stable incretin therapy throughout the study period. The study lasts about 80 weeks in total. Researchers will monitor changes in body weight from the start of treatment to week 64 as the main outcome. Participants will have regular assessments to track their health, safety, and treatment effects during this time.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of macupatide and eloralintide, alone or combined, on weight loss in adults who are overweight or have obesity along with type 2 diabetes. This Phase 2 study aims to understand how these treatments might help reduce body weight in this population. The study is designed as a parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to ensure unbiased results. Participants will receive either macupatide, eloralintide, both drugs together, or matching placebos. All treatments are administered by subcutaneous injection. The study treatment period lasts approximately 48 weeks, during which the effects of the drugs on weight and diabetes control will be assessed. During the study, participants will be monitored for changes in body weight from the start of the study to week 32 as the primary outcome. Researchers will also evaluate safety and other health measures throughout the nearly year-long participation. The study includes regular assessments to track the effects of treatment and to ensure participant health and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a medicine called NNC0487-0111 for adults with excess body weight, specifically targeting obesity. This Phase 3 clinical study aims to see if this treatment helps people maintain their weight loss compared to a placebo, which contains no active medicine. Participants are randomly assigned to either the treatment or placebo group to fairly compare results. The study involves two groups receiving weekly injections under the skin: one group gets NNC0487-0111, and the other receives a placebo designed to look the same. The treatment is given once a week, and participants reach a target dose during an initial run-in period before the main study phase begins. During the study, researchers track changes in body weight from week 40 to week 92 to assess how well the treatment works. Participants' safety and health are monitored throughout the study, including various medical assessments. The total participation time covers these weeks and includes ongoing observation to understand the treatment's effects over time.

The purpose of this clinical study is to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating people who have excess body weight. There are 2 study treatments in this study taken as injections under the skin once a week. Participants will either get NNC0487-0111 (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance.

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.

Researchers are investigating the effect of olpasiran compared to a placebo in reducing the risk of coronary heart disease death, heart attack, or urgent coronary revascularization in people at risk for their first major cardiovascular event who have elevated lipoprotein(a) levels. This Phase 3 study focuses on participants aged 50 years and older with multiple cardiovascular risk factors or evidence of atherosclerosis. The goal is to understand whether olpasiran can help prevent these serious heart-related events in this population. Participants will receive either olpasiran or a placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study is double-blind and randomized, meaning neither participants nor researchers will know who receives the active drug or placebo. The intervention period and follow-up will continue for up to approximately 6.2 years to monitor the occurrence of major cardiovascular events. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for outcomes including time to coronary heart disease death, myocardial infarction, or urgent coronary revascularization. Regular assessments will be performed to track cardiovascular health and safety. The long observation period aims to ensure thorough evaluation of olpasiran's impact on preventing first major cardiovascular events in people with elevated lipoprotein(a).

Researchers are evaluating the effects of baxdrostat combined with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in adults aged 40 and older who have type 2 diabetes, established cardiovascular disease, a history of hypertension with systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg at screening, and at least one additional risk factor for heart failure. This Phase III randomized, placebo-controlled, event-driven study aims to determine if the combination reduces the risk of heart failure events or cardiovascular death, with follow-up lasting up to 38 months. Participants who meet screening criteria but are not currently treated with SGLT2 inhibitors or have been treated for less than 4 weeks will enter a run-in period receiving dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily for 4 to 6 weeks before randomization. The study involves random assignment to either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or placebo plus dapagliflozin. Site visits occur at approximately 2, 4, 8, 16, and 34 weeks after randomization, then every 4 months. Participants discontinuing the blinded study drug may continue open-label dapagliflozin, with ongoing visits and data collection as per protocol. Participants will undergo an optional pre-screening period without site visits or consent to help identify eligibility, followed by up to 14 days of formal screening after informed consent. Researchers will monitor heart failure events and cardiovascular deaths as primary outcomes. Safety and adherence will be tracked throughout the study, including during any premature discontinuation of blinded treatment. The study will conclude when a predetermined number of secondary endpoint events have occurred, with continued follow-up as needed.

Researchers are evaluating whether the drug zilebesiran can reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as cardiovascular death, nonfatal heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure in adults who have hypertension that is not well controlled and who either have established cardiovascular disease or are at high risk for it. This Phase 3 global study is designed to continue until enough cardiovascular events have occurred to assess the treatment's effect. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zilebesiran or a placebo, both given as injections under the skin (subcutaneous administration). All participants will continue with their standard care, which includes treatment with at least two antihypertensive medications, one of which must be a diuretic such as a thiazide or loop diuretic. The study is double-blind, so neither participants nor researchers know who is receiving the active drug or placebo. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, heart failure hospitalizations, and cardiovascular deaths over approximately five years. Researchers will collect data on these events to determine the time until the first occurrence of any of these outcomes. Safety assessments and standard clinical evaluations will also be performed throughout the study period to ensure participant well-being.
