Researchers are evaluating treatments for breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-), specifically in cases where the cancer is either locally advanced and cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). The study aims to determine if patritumab deruxtecan (also called HER3-DXd or MK-1022) helps patients live longer overall or without the cancer growing compared to chemotherapy or trastuzumab deruxtecan. This is a Phase 3 clinical trial focusing on this particular type of breast cancer. Participants receive one of several treatments: patritumab deruxtecan through intravenous infusion, chemotherapy options like paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel via IV, oral capecitabine tablets, liposomal doxorubicin via IV, or trastuzumab deruxtecan via IV infusion. The study compares the effects of patritumab deruxtecan alone to the treatment chosen by the physician. Treatments are administered according to standard dosing schedules during the trial. During the study, participants are monitored for how long they live without the cancer progressing (up to about 45 months) and overall survival (up to about 85 months). Researchers assess disease status through imaging and other evaluations. Participants have regular check-ups to monitor health, treatment effects, and any side effects. The study tracks treatment response and safety over the extended follow-up period to understand the benefits and risks of the therapies.

Researchers are investigating new treatments for people with high-risk, early-stage breast cancer, specifically targeting triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and hormone receptor (HR)-low positive/HER2-negative breast cancer. These types have little or no HER2 protein and involve hormones like estrogen or progesterone. The study aims to evaluate if the addition of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), a targeted therapy, combined with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy can improve outcomes compared to pembrolizumab with chemotherapy alone. Participants receive treatments including sacituzumab tirumotecan, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy drugs such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, all given by intravenous infusion. Rescue medications like antihistamines, acetaminophen, dexamethasone, or steroid mouthwash may be used as needed. The study is randomized and open-label, comparing sac-TMT followed by chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab to chemotherapy and pembrolizumab without sac-TMT. During the study, researchers will monitor participants up to about 30 weeks to assess the percentage of people with no remaining cancer cells at surgery. They will also follow participants for up to approximately 92 months to track event-free survival, meaning time without cancer growth, spread, or return. Participants will undergo imaging, clinical assessments, and laboratory tests to evaluate treatment effects and safety throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of a new antibody-coupled drug called TQB2102 for injection in patients with unresectable locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic HER2-positive gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. This Phase II study focuses on how TQB2102 works in combination with Benmelstobart Injection or Penpulimab Injection, with or without chemotherapy, to target HER2 proteins on tumor cells and potentially improve treatment outcomes. The study aims to assess the Objective Response Rate (ORR) over about one year of participation. The treatments being studied include TQB2102 combined with Benmelstobart and chemotherapy or TQB2102 combined with Penpulimab and chemotherapy. TQB2102 is designed to bind more effectively to tumor cell HER2 proteins, while Benmelstobart and Penpulimab are antibodies that may help the immune system target cancer cells. Different dosing regimens of TQB2102 (6 mg or 7.5 mg) are being evaluated, and chemotherapy may be included depending on the treatment group. Participants will be monitored through regular evaluations during the study, which lasts approximately one year. Researchers will measure tumor response and safety outcomes, including lab tests and imaging to confirm measurable lesions according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. The study also involves reviewing previous PD-L1 expression test results or collecting tumor tissue for testing. Safety is closely observed, and participants must meet specific health criteria to join and continue in the trial.

Researchers are evaluating TQB2102, an antibody-drug conjugate designed to target tumor cells with a potent drug payload, for its effectiveness and safety in treating locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with HER2 gene abnormalities. This Phase 2 study focuses on patients whose cancer is either inoperable or has recurred and who have not responded to previous standard treatments. The goal is to assess the overall response rate up to 8 months after starting treatment. Participants may receive TQB2102 alone or in combination with Benmelstobart injection, a monoclonal antibody targeting PD-L1. TQB2102 combines a humanized antibody against HER2 with a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload, aiming to specifically attack cancer cells. The treatments are administered by injection, and the study examines their safety and effectiveness in this patient population. During the study, participants will be monitored closely with evaluations including tumor measurements based on standard criteria. Researchers will track treatment responses and any side effects to determine safety and overall benefit. The study includes adults aged 18 to 75 years with specific performance status and survival expectations, and it also requires contraception use for participants of childbearing potential. The total duration includes baseline through up to 8 months of treatment response assessment.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study to see if it can reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-PLUS) in adults with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study compares AZD0780 to a placebo and monitors participants from randomization until the primary analysis censoring date, followed by a final study closure visit. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 or an oral placebo once daily. The treatment period lasts until the primary analysis censoring date, after which a study closure visit will occur. The study is event-driven and designed to assess the time to the first major cardiovascular event during treatment. During the study, participants will be closely monitored with various assessments to evaluate cardiovascular outcomes and safety over approximately 54 months. Researchers will track the time to first event of any component of MACE-PLUS and collect data to assess the effect of AZD0780 compared to placebo. The study includes regular visits and evaluations to ensure participant safety and adherence to treatment.

Researchers are studying stroke patients with large vessel blockage in the brain to see if a simpler imaging method can effectively select patients for a procedure called thrombectomy. This trial compares the usual detailed imaging approach using CT perfusion or MRI with a simpler method using only NCCT and CTA scans. The goal is to find out if this simpler imaging is as good as the standard method in helping patients achieve favorable outcomes after treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will be screened using the simplified imaging strategy involving NCCT and CTA scans, while the other group will undergo the standard screening that includes NCCT-ASPECTS, CTA, and CT perfusion imaging. Both approaches are used to decide eligibility for endovascular treatment to remove the blood clot. The study includes patients arriving within 24 hours of stroke onset and uses imaging to guide treatment decisions. During the study, patients will be assessed for clinical outcomes 90 days after the thrombectomy procedure to determine treatment success. Researchers will monitor stroke severity, functional recovery, and safety. Follow-up evaluations will ensure data on patient progress and any complications are collected. Participation involves initial imaging screening, treatment if eligible, and follow-up visits lasting at least 90 days post-treatment to measure results and recovery.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of combining inavolisib with a cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) and letrozole compared to placebo plus CDK4/6i and letrozole. This study focuses on participants with endocrine-sensitive PIK3CA-mutated hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer. It aims to assess treatment outcomes in the first-line setting for this specific breast cancer type. Participants will be assigned to receive either oral inavolisib once daily or a matching oral placebo once daily. All participants will also receive a CDK4/6 inhibitor on either Days 1-21 or Days 1-28 of each 28-day cycle, along with daily oral letrozole. This randomized, double-blind study will compare these two treatment combinations to monitor differences in disease progression and safety. Throughout the study, researchers will evaluate progression-free survival from the time of randomization until disease progression or death, up to 7 years. Participants will undergo assessments including tumor measurements by RECIST criteria, performance status evaluations, and monitoring of blood and organ function before treatment begins. Safety and efficacy will be closely observed during treatment, aiming to provide detailed long-term data on the study therapies.

This trial studies patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer who have not shown disease progression after concurrent chemoradiation therapy. It is a randomized, double-blind, phase III clinical study designed to compare the effectiveness and safety of the drug AK112 against a placebo as a consolidation treatment. The goal is to evaluate the potential benefits of AK112 in improving outcomes for these patients. Participants receive either AK112 at a dose of 20 mg/kg or a placebo, both administered intravenously every three weeks (Q3W). The treatment is given as consolidation therapy following initial chemoradiation, aiming to maintain disease control. The study involves two groups: one receiving AK112 and the other receiving placebo, with both treatments delivered under double-blind conditions. Throughout the trial, researchers monitor participants for up to approximately six years, focusing on progression-free survival and overall survival as primary outcomes. Patients undergo regular assessments to track disease status and safety, including blinded independent center reviews. The long-term follow-up ensures comprehensive evaluation of treatment effects and participant safety over time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of BBT002 in healthy volunteers and patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is conducted in two parts: Part A involves single ascending doses in healthy volunteers, and Part B involves multiple ascending doses in COPD patients. The study is designed as a Phase 1 trial to gather early information on the effects of BBT002 in these populations. Participants will receive either BBT002 or a placebo. In Part A, healthy volunteers receive a single dose of BBT002 in sequential ascending dose cohorts. In Part B, patients with COPD receive two repeated doses of BBT002. The study carefully monitors dosing and responses during these periods to evaluate various safety and biological activity aspects of the drug. Throughout the study, participants undergo multiple assessments including monitoring for adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs, physical examinations, and electrocardiograms (ECGs). These evaluations occur up to Day 141 for Part A and Day 169 for Part B after the first dose. The researchers aim to track changes in these measures to determine the safety and effects of BBT002 over time.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of adding Tersolisib (LY4064809/STX-478) to other anti-cancer drugs as the first treatment for adults with advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer. This phase 3 study focuses on participants whose cancer has a specific genetic change called a PIK3CA mutation and who have not received prior treatment for advanced breast cancer. The study aims to understand how well this treatment combination works and its safety over time. Participants will receive Tersolisib or a placebo, combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (Ribociclib, Palbociclib, or Abemaciclib) and endocrine therapy (Anastrozole, Letrozole, Exemestane, or Fulvestrant). All drugs are given orally except for Fulvestrant, which is given by injection into the muscle. The study includes two parts: Part 1 allows participants who have had up to two prior treatments for advanced breast cancer, including chemotherapy; Part 2 includes those with no prior treatment for advanced disease and classifies them as endocrine sensitive or resistant based on their cancer history. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for cancer response, progression-free survival, and side effects. Researchers will monitor measurable disease or bone involvement and track overall response rates, including complete or partial tumor shrinkage. The study will continue as long as the treatment is helping without causing unbearable side effects. Follow-up may last up to five years to observe long-term outcomes and safety.
