Researchers are evaluating how well oral icotrokinra works, its safety, and how well patients tolerate it in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic condition where the colon lining becomes inflamed and develops ulcers. This is a Phase 3 study aimed at finding effective treatments for this condition using a rigorous comparison. Participants will receive either icotrokinra tablets or placebo tablets taken by mouth. The study includes an induction phase and a maintenance phase, with adults participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, while adolescents join an open-label maintenance study. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor clinical remission rates at 12 weeks during induction and at 40 weeks during maintenance. Participants will undergo assessments including endoscopic evaluations and pregnancy tests for females of childbearing potential. Safety and tolerability will be closely observed, with the total study duration covering both induction and maintenance periods.

Researchers are conducting two related studies called RADICAL PC1 and RADICAL PC2 focused on men diagnosed with prostate cancer. RADICAL PC1 follows men within one year of their prostate cancer diagnosis or who have recently started androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The goal is to understand factors linked to developing cardiovascular disease in these men, especially related to ADT. RADICAL PC2 is a randomized controlled trial within RADICAL PC1 that tests a systematic approach to improving heart health and lifestyle risk factors in this population. The treatments studied include behavioral advice on healthy nutrition, exercise including strength and resistance training, and smoking cessation support if needed. Drug treatments include prescriptions of low to moderate dose statins and ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers for controlling blood pressure above 130 mmHg. The intervention targets men newly diagnosed or recently starting ADT, and treatment is personalized based on cardiovascular risk. Participants engage in assessments to monitor heart-related outcomes such as death, heart attacks, strokes, heart failure, or arterial revascularization over 3 to 5 years. The study tracks cardiovascular health and lifestyle factors throughout this period to evaluate the effectiveness of the interventions. Safety and progress are closely monitored to understand impacts on long-term outcomes in men with prostate cancer undergoing ADT.

This research focuses on men with prostate cancer who have previously participated in an enzalutamide clinical study sponsored by Astellas or Medivation. It aims to gather long-term safety information from participants who continue to benefit from enzalutamide treatment. This is a Phase 2 open-label extension study designed to monitor ongoing treatment effects after the initial study has completed its primary analysis or evaluation period. Participants will continue their previous treatment regimens, which may include enzalutamide taken orally once daily. Some may also receive abiraterone acetate with prednisone or leuprolide acetate depending on their prior study enrollment. Dose adjustments are allowed with medical monitor approval. The first visit of this study should occur within seven days of the last visit of the prior study unless treatment is temporarily paused. Participants are asked to return to their study site every 24 weeks for safety reviews, including adverse event monitoring and medication checks. At visits every 12 weeks, participants return unused study drugs and receive new supplies if needed. Safety data, including all adverse events and serious adverse events, are collected from consent until study completion, which may last up to 96 months. The study follows local standard care guidelines and includes a post-marketing phase in South Korea.

Researchers are comparing how long participants with KRAS/NRAS and BRAF wild-type recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic colorectal cancer remain disease-free and their overall survival time when treated with two different regimens. This phase 3 study focuses on patients who have previously received chemotherapy. The study aims to evaluate progression-free survival and overall survival in participants receiving amivantamab plus FOLFIRI versus cetuximab or bevacizumab plus FOLFIRI. The study involves two treatment groups: one receiving amivantamab combined with chemotherapy drugs 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium or levoleucovorin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI), and the other receiving either cetuximab or bevacizumab with the same chemotherapy regimen. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these treatment arms. The treatments will be administered according to protocol to assess their effects on the cancer. Participants will be monitored for up to 2 years and 1 month to measure progression-free survival through blinded independent central review and followed for overall survival for up to 4 years and 4 months. The study includes assessments of tumor response, safety, and other clinical evaluations. Tissue samples and detailed clinical data will also be collected. This comprehensive monitoring will help determine the comparative effectiveness of the treatment options over time.

This trial is focused on adults with KRAS/NRAS and BRAF wild-type unresectable or metastatic left-sided colorectal cancer. It compares the length of time participants remain free from disease progression when treated with amivantamab combined with chemotherapy regimens (mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI) versus cetuximab combined with the same chemotherapy regimens. The study is a randomized, open-label Phase 3 clinical trial designed to evaluate progression-free survival over a period of up to 4 years and 2 months. Participants receive either amivantamab with chemotherapy drugs including 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium or levoleucovorin, oxaliplatin, or irinotecan hydrochloride, or cetuximab with the same chemotherapy regimens (mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI). Treatments are administered as first-line therapy for their colorectal cancer. The trial assesses how these treatments affect disease progression and survival. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly through assessments and evaluations to measure progression-free survival. Researchers will gather data via blinded independent central review to ensure unbiased assessment of disease status. Participants are followed up for safety and treatment efficacy over the study duration, which may last over four years.

Researchers are evaluating the anti-tumor activity of amivantamab combined with pembrolizumab and carboplatin compared to pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and platinum therapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in participants with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This trial focuses on participants who have not received prior systemic treatment in the recurrent/metastatic setting. HNSCC is a type of cancer affecting the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat and other head and neck regions. Participants will receive either amivantamab added to pembrolizumab and carboplatin or the standard care regimen of pembrolizumab, 5-FU, and a platinum agent (carboplatin or cisplatin). 5-FU will be given as an infusion over a 4-day period. The study is a phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter trial comparing these treatment combinations. During the study, researchers will monitor overall survival and the objective response rate using standard tumor evaluation criteria for up to about 3 years and 7 months. Participants will undergo assessments to measure disease response, including imaging and other evaluations, to track how well the treatments work. Safety and side effects will also be monitored throughout the trial period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of Dostarlimab compared to a placebo in adults with locally advanced unresected Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC). This phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on patients who have completed chemoradiation therapy with cisplatin and radiation and have no distant metastatic disease. The study requires confirmation of PD-L1 positive tumor status and specific testing for oropharyngeal carcinoma cases. Participants will receive either Dostarlimab or a placebo as an intravenous infusion following their chemoradiation treatment. The study monitors these treatments as sequential therapy to assess their impact on disease progression. Treatments are administered in a controlled, blinded manner to compare outcomes between the two groups effectively. During the study, participants will be followed for up to approximately five years to measure event-free survival, with evaluations conducted by blinded independent central review. Assessments will include monitoring for safety, disease status, and any adverse events throughout the study period. This long-term follow-up aims to provide comprehensive data on the effectiveness and safety of Dostarlimab as post-chemoradiation therapy in this patient population.

Researchers are evaluating how well elritercept (TAK-226, KER-050) works in reducing the need for red blood cell (RBC) transfusions in adults with very low, low, or intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who require regular blood transfusions. The study is a Phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial that also aims to assess the safety and tolerability of elritercept over both short and longer periods, including in adults with high transfusion needs. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either elritercept or a matching placebo by subcutaneous injection every 4 weeks. The study includes a Primary Phase lasting 24 weeks and a Secondary Phase lasting an additional 24 weeks, during which participants continue the same treatment. Following these phases, an Extension Phase allows eligible participants to continue treatment until discontinuation or study unblinding. Study visits occur every 2 weeks during the first 6 cycles and every 4 weeks thereafter. Treatment continuation depends on meeting disease assessment criteria every 24 weeks. Participants will undergo various assessments including bone marrow aspirates, transfusion evaluations, and disease status checks throughout the study. Safety follow-up lasts for 8 weeks after the last dose, with visits every 4 weeks during this time. Afterward, long-term follow-up occurs quarterly for up to 5 years or until withdrawal, death, loss to follow-up, or study closure. The main outcome measured is the percentage of participants achieving transfusion independence for at least 8 weeks during the first 24 weeks of treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of icotrokinra in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease, a chronic condition causing severe inflammation in the intestinal tract. This Phase 2b/3 study aims to understand how well icotrokinra works compared to a placebo in improving symptoms and intestinal healing in this patient group. Participants will receive either icotrokinra or a matching placebo orally every day. The study includes both induction and maintenance phases where researchers assess clinical and endoscopic responses at specific time points, such as Week 12 and Week 40, to determine treatment effects over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and safety monitoring. Researchers will measure outcomes like clinical response, clinical remission, and endoscopic healing at Weeks 12 and 40. The study involves regular monitoring to track the participants' health and treatment adherence over the duration of the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of Saruparib (AZD5305) compared to placebo when added to a standard radiation therapy (RT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) regimen in men with high-risk and very high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer who have a BRCA gene mutation. This phase III study aims to assess whether Saruparib can improve metastasis-free survival in this population. About 700 adult male participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Saruparib or placebo along with ADT. There are two groups: Cohort A includes 400 participants with newly diagnosed high-risk or very high-risk prostate cancer treated with primary RT or with high-risk biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy receiving salvage RT. Cohort B includes 300 participants with very high-risk locally advanced prostate cancer receiving primary RT combined with ADT and abiraterone. Saruparib and placebo will be given orally, and standard ADT and abiraterone with prednisone/prednisolone will be administered as per the regimen. Participants will be followed for up to about 93 months to monitor metastasis-free survival and overall safety. Assessments include imaging scans like CT, MRI, bone scans, and PSMA-PET to confirm disease status. The study also monitors organ function, performance status, and treatment adherence. An independent committee will review safety and efficacy data throughout the trial to ensure participant well-being and study integrity.
