Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of orforglipron taken once daily in adults with Fontaine Stage II peripheral arterial disease (PAD), a condition causing pain and difficulty walking due to narrowed arteries. This Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to understand how orforglipron affects walking ability and overall safety in people with this condition. Participants will be involved in the study for about 58 weeks. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo, both administered orally once daily. The study includes a comparison between these two groups to assess the impact of orforglipron on walking distance and other health outcomes over the course of the trial. During the study, researchers will measure changes in the maximum distance participants can walk compared to their baseline, particularly at the start and after 52 weeks of treatment. Participants will be monitored for safety and any side effects throughout the study. The total duration of participation is approximately 58 weeks, allowing for thorough evaluation of the treatment's effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating maridebart cafraglutide, a drug given as an addition to standard care, to see if it reduces heart-related problems and deaths better than a placebo in people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease who are overweight or obese. This phase 3 study focuses on cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, and deaths related to heart conditions, aiming to improve outcomes in this high-risk population. Participants will receive either maridebart cafraglutide or a placebo, both administered by injection under the skin. The study compares these two groups over a period of up to approximately 35 months, monitoring heart-related health events to assess the drug's impact. The placebo group will receive injections that look identical but contain no active drug, ensuring a double-blind study design. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated for major cardiovascular events, including heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and death. Researchers will track the time until these events occur to measure the drug's effectiveness. Safety and health will be closely monitored throughout the study period, and participants will be followed for up to nearly three years to gather comprehensive data on cardiovascular outcomes and overall survival.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of maridebart cafraglutide, given alongside standard care, in reducing heart failure events such as hospitalizations, urgent visits, cardiovascular deaths, and improving symptoms in people with heart failure who have preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction and are obese. This is a global phase 3, multicenter trial with a two-part design including a double-blind period followed by an open-label extension. The first part will end once around 850 key events have been recorded. Participants will receive either maridebart cafraglutide or a placebo, both administered by injection under the skin. The study includes an initial randomized, double-blind phase and a later open-label extension where all participants may receive the active treatment. The trial is designed to monitor participants over time to assess the safety and effects of the treatment compared to placebo. During the trial, participants will undergo assessments including monitoring for cardiovascular events, heart failure symptoms, and laboratory tests such as NT-proBNP levels. Researchers will track time until the first occurrence of cardiovascular death or heart failure events over approximately 35 months. Safety evaluations, adherence to treatment, and ongoing health status will be followed throughout the study period.

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.
