Researchers are evaluating the consistency of immune responses to three different batches of an investigational chickenpox vaccine called VNS vaccine in healthy children aged 12 to 15 months who have not had chickenpox or received a chickenpox vaccine before. The study also compares the safety and immune response of the VNS vaccine to an approved chickenpox vaccine known as Varivax. This Phase 3a study is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and aims to better understand the immune protection provided by these vaccines. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one dose of either one of the three investigational VNS vaccine lots or one of two lots of the marketed Varivax vaccine. Along with the chickenpox vaccine, they also receive one dose each of measles, mumps, and rubella MMR vaccine, hepatitis A vaccine HAV, and a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV which could be PCV 13, Vaxneuvance, or PCV 20 depending on availability and country recommendations. All vaccines are given on Day 1 of the study. During the study, researchers monitor the participants immune responses by measuring antibodies against varicella zoster virus VZV and other vaccine components at Day 43. They also track safety by recording any side effects or adverse events from Day 1 to Day 181. The study includes diary reports by parents and regular clinical evaluations to assess immune response and safety outcomes. Participation involves a single vaccination visit and follow-up assessments over approximately six months.

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.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of vicadrostat combined with empagliflozin in adults who have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease but no history of heart failure. The study aims to assess whether this combination can help reduce cardiovascular risks compared to a placebo with empagliflozin. This Phase III trial involves adults with these conditions who are already receiving treatment for them. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets daily, while the other group takes placebo tablets that look like vicadrostat but have no active medicine, alongside empagliflozin. Treatment lasts from two and a half years up to four years and three months. All participants continue their usual medications for diabetes, blood pressure, and heart disease during the study. Throughout the study, lasting up to four years and three months, participants visit the study site regularly for health checks and blood samples. Doctors monitor cardiovascular events and any side effects experienced. The main outcome measured is the time until the first cardiovascular death or heart failure event. Other health indicators like blood pressure and kidney function are also tracked to understand the effects of the treatment combination.

This research evaluates the long-term safety and effects of plozasiran in adults with hypertriglyceridemia HTG and severe hypertriglyceridemia SHTG. Participants must have completed prior related studies and meet specific health criteria, including controlled blood sugar levels HbA1c 10%. The study is designed as an open-label Phase 3 trial to extend understanding of this treatment in these populations. Participants will receive plozasiran injections under the skin approximately every three months for two years. They will continue following a low-fat diet according to local care standards. Some participants may join based on meeting additional criteria from previous studies, ensuring they fit the trials health requirements. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including monitoring for treatment-related side effects and changes in blood triglyceride and cholesterol levels. Researchers will track various blood markers and cardiovascular events over 24 months. Safety and response to treatment will be closely observed throughout the trial period.

Human papillomavirus HPV infection is very common and often causes warts, which can appear at any age. This research investigates the effectiveness of two treatments, 2LVERU4 JUNIOR and 2LVERU4, compared to a placebo, in helping warts disappear. The study is placebo-controlled, randomized, and double-blind, aiming to see if these treatments improve wart clearance by the end of six months of treatment. Participants will take one capsule daily for six months, either 2LVERU4 JUNIOR or 2LVERU4, or a placebo, all taken on an empty stomach before breakfast. After the treatment phase, there is a three-month follow-up to monitor for any wart recurrence. Success is measured by normal skin color, texture, and touch at wart sites compared to the start of the study. During the study, participants will have regular assessments up to nine months from the start, including checking wart disappearance at four and six months and tracking any recurrence three months after treatment ends. Pain related to warts and safety through adverse event monitoring will also be evaluated. The study expects to enroll 162 patients aged three years and older with common, plantar, or flat warts.
