Researchers are evaluating the effect of a triple therapy inhaler called BGF MDI containing budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate compared with a dual therapy inhaler called GFF MDI containing glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who have a higher risk of heart and lung problems. This Phase III randomized, double-blind, parallel group study takes place at multiple centers and focuses on cardiopulmonary outcomes in these patients. Participants receive either the BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily or the GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily. The treatments are inhaled using metered dose inhalers. The study compares these two therapies over time to see how they affect the time until the first severe heart or lung event occurs. The study design ensures that neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given to reduce bias. During the study, participants will have regular visits to the study site or virtual visits to complete assessments. Researchers will monitor lung function, symptoms, and blood tests, including blood eosinophil counts and COPD assessment test scores. The main outcome measured is the time to the first severe cardiac or COPD event, with follow-up lasting up to three years. Safety and adherence to treatment will also be closely observed throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of camizestrant compared to standard endocrine therapy in patients with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-). These patients have an intermediate or high risk of cancer recurrence and have already completed local treatments such as surgery and possibly chemotherapy, alongside at least 2 years and up to 5 years of standard adjuvant endocrine therapy. The study is a Phase III, open-label trial designed to assess outcomes over a long term. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either camizestrant, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader, or one of several standard endocrine therapies including tamoxifen, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane, administered according to local approved guidelines. The treatment duration for both groups is planned to last 60 months. Eligible patients may have previously used CDK4/6 inhibitors, and the study will specifically include those with intermediate or high risk of recurrence as determined by clinical and biological markers. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to 10 years from the last patient's randomization to evaluate invasive breast cancer-free survival. Additional outcomes include invasive disease-free survival, distant relapse-free survival, overall survival, safety, and clinical outcome assessments. The study involves ongoing assessments of health status, treatment effects, and safety to determine the long-term benefits and risks of camizestrant compared to standard therapies.

Researchers are conducting a multi-center, global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of IMVT-1402 in adults with Graves' disease who remain hyperthyroid despite antithyroid drug treatment. The study focuses on participants aged 18 to 75 years who have this diagnosis and are still experiencing hyperthyroidism. Participants will receive either IMVT-1402 or a placebo for 26 weeks. The study includes two dosing regimens of IMVT-1402: Dose 1 administered for 26 weeks and Dose 2 also administered for 26 weeks. The placebo group will receive treatment for the same duration. The treatments are given as drugs, and the study is designed to keep both participants and researchers unaware of which treatment is assigned. During the study, researchers will monitor participants to see how many achieve normal thyroid function (euthyroid) and remain off antithyroid drugs by Week 26. Participants will be assessed regularly to evaluate safety, tolerability, and treatment effects. The involvement includes following the assigned treatment and attending scheduled visits for evaluations. The total participation time corresponds with the 26-week treatment period.

Researchers are studying the safety and effects of an investigational medicine called PF-08653944 in adults who are overweight or have obesity along with type 2 diabetes. This condition involves carrying too much body weight and having high blood sugar levels. The study is a phase 3, multi-center, randomized placebo-controlled trial that aims to evaluate the medicine's ability to help with weight loss and monitor its safety. Participants will receive either the study medicine or a placebo by weekly injections under the skin in the belly area. About two-thirds of participants will get the study medicine, while one-third will receive the placebo. Participants will be trained to administer the injections themselves at home. The study will last about 21 months and includes up to 14 visits to the study site and 5 phone calls. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through visits and phone contacts. Researchers will measure changes in body weight from the start to week 64 to evaluate effectiveness. The study will also include assessments of safety and treatment effects over the entire duration. Participants need to perform finger-stick glucose monitoring as required and follow the study procedures throughout the trial.

This is a Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The planned duration of treatment in either arm of the study is 7 years. Eligible patients must have intermediate-high or high risk of recurrence as defined by specified clinical and biologic criteria. Concurrent use of abemaciclib is permitted in both arms. The primary endpoint of the study is Invasive breast cancer-free survival (IBCFS) and main secondary endpoints include Invasive disease-free survival (IDFS), Distant relapse-free survival (DRFS), Overall survival (OS), Safety and Clinical Outcome Assessments (COAs). Patients will be followed for 10 years from randomization of the last patient.

Researchers are conducting a two-part, phase 2b/3 study to evaluate CSL300 (Clazakizumab) in adults with end stage kidney disease (ESKD) undergoing dialysis who have systemic inflammation and either atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or diabetes. The study aims to determine the best dose of CSL300 and assess its effects on cardiovascular outcomes and safety in this population. This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial targets patients with elevated inflammation markers and significant health risks due to their conditions. In the first part (phase 2b), the study focuses on finding the appropriate dose of CSL300 compared to placebo. CSL300 is given through intravenous (IV) administration. The second part (phase 3) evaluates the impact of CSL300 on cardiovascular events such as heart attack or cardiovascular death over approximately 5 years, continuing to compare CSL300 to placebo for safety and efficacy. The placebo matches CSL300's excipient content but lacks the active drug. Participants will undergo baseline and regular assessments for inflammation markers like high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) up to 12 weeks in phase 2b, and long-term monitoring for cardiovascular outcomes in phase 3. The study involves ongoing safety evaluations and efficacy measurements during the entire follow-up period. This comprehensive approach helps researchers understand how CSL300 affects inflammation and cardiovascular health in patients with ESKD on dialysis.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of once-weekly injectable MET097 in adults who have obesity or are overweight with related weight complications, but who do not have type 2 diabetes. This phase 3, multi-center randomized controlled trial aims to understand how well MET097 works and how safe it is over a long period. The study will last 84 weeks, with the primary effectiveness measured after 64 weeks of treatment. Participants will receive either MET097 or a placebo, both given once a week by subcutaneous injection. The study compares these two groups to assess the impact of MET097 on weight and related health issues. The treatment period is followed by continued monitoring to evaluate longer-term effects up to 84 weeks. During the study, participants' body weight changes will be carefully tracked from the start through week 64, which is the main outcome measure. Additional health assessments will occur through the 84-week duration to monitor safety and overall responses. Participants will be supported and monitored regularly to assess the medication's impact and any side effects throughout the trial.
