Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of APG777 in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis who have completed treatment in a previous APG777 study. This phase 2 extension study involves participants who, according to their doctors, would benefit from continued treatment with APG777. The study is designed as a multicenter, double-blind trial to assess ongoing treatment outcomes and safety over several years. Participants in this study will continue receiving APG777 through three main periods a screening visit coinciding with the last visit of the prior studys maintenance period, an extended treatment period, and a post-treatment follow-up period. Participants who met certain skin improvement criteria and did not use topical rescue medication during the prior study will maintain their previous dose and injection frequency. Those who did not meet these criteria or used rescue medication will receive APG777 according to a specific dosing plan in an open-label escape arm. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for treatment-emergent adverse events up to 3 years. The research team will also measure skin improvements using tools such as the Eczema Area and Severity Index EASI and the Investigator Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis vIGA-AD, as well as tracking itch severity, use of rescue therapy, and serum drug concentrations. The overall participation time includes up to 3 years of follow-up to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating AZD8965 in a Phase IIb trial to study its safety, tolerability, and effectiveness in treating Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis IPF. The study compares three doses of AZD8965 to a placebo in participants with IPF, including those who are on stable doses of approved antifibrotic therapies such as nintedanib, pirfenidone, or nerandomilast, as well as those not taking antifibrotic treatment. The trial is randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, and parallel-group in design. Participants are assigned to one of four groups placebo, low dose AZD8965, medium dose AZD8965, or high dose AZD8965. The treatment lasts for 24 weeks, during which participants receive their assigned medication. The study includes approximately 360 participants across around 200 sites worldwide. Researchers aim to assess the clinical efficacy of AZD8965 by measuring changes in lung function and study the relationship between dose and outcomes. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including lung function tests such as forced vital capacity FVC, monitoring for adverse events, and pharmacokinetic analyses of AZD8965. Safety and tolerability are monitored up to 25 weeks. Researchers will also track any serious adverse events and treatment discontinuations. The total participation time covers the 24-week treatment period with scheduled visits to assess the study outcomes and participant health.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a triple therapy inhaler combining budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate BGF MDI 32014.49.6 g compared to a dual therapy inhaler with glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate GFF MDI 14.49.6 g on heart and lung outcomes in adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD who have a higher risk for heart and lung events. This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and conducted at multiple centers, focusing on participants with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk. Participants will receive either the triple therapy inhaler or the dual therapy inhaler, both administered twice daily. The study compares these two inhalers over a period of up to three years, monitoring for serious cardiac or COPD events. The trial includes careful evaluation of various heart and lung-related health events during this period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through regular visits, assessments, and tests to measure lung function, heart events, and COPD exacerbations. Researchers will track the time until the first severe cardiac or COPD event and evaluate other cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes over up to three years. Participants will also be assessed for their ability to properly use the inhaler and adherence to the study protocol throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating whether eptinezumab can reduce the number of days with episodic migraine in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. This Phase 3 clinical trial focuses on the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in pediatric participants using intravenous infusion. The study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled to compare the effects of different doses of eptinezumab with a placebo. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups a single intravenous infusion of eptinezumab 300 mg adjusted for weight, a single intravenous infusion of eptinezumab 100 mg adjusted for weight, or a single intravenous infusion of a placebo matching eptinezumab. The dosing occurs once, and the study monitors results over subsequent weeks. This design allows for comparison of the medication against placebo to evaluate treatment effects in this population. During the study, participants and their caregivers will complete headache diaries to document migraine and headache days. Researchers will assess changes in the number of monthly migraine days over 12 weeks, response rates to treatment, headache duration and intensity, acute medication use, and disability related to migraine using questionnaires like the Pediatric Migraine Disability Assessment PedMIDAS. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug concentrations and antibodies. Safety and efficacy are monitored throughout the study period, which concludes approximately 12 weeks after dosing.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa HS is a skin condition that causes painful bumps, abscesses, scars, and tunnels in areas where the skin rubs together. This condition may start when hair follicles become damaged, triggering the immune system and allowing bacteria to worsen the symptoms. Researchers are evaluating the safety, effectiveness, and tolerance of a drug called zasocitinib in adults with moderate to severe HS compared with a placebo in this Phase 2 clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zasocitinib or a placebo for the first 16 weeks in a double-blind period. After this, all participants will receive zasocitinib for an additional 36 weeks in an open-label period. The placebo capsules look like zasocitinib but contain no medicine. Treatment dosing involves a specific dose of zasocitinib labeled as Dose A. During the study, participants will visit the clinic 12 times for assessments. Researchers will monitor the percentage of participants achieving a 75% reduction in HS symptoms at week 16 as the primary outcome. They will also track safety through adverse events and other measures throughout the 56 weeks of treatment. Participants will undergo evaluations including clinical exams, questionnaires, and safety tests to understand treatment effects and tolerability.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of brenipatide at different dose levels compared with placebo in adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma.
