Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of three different dose regimens of MORF-057, a small molecule drug, in adults with moderately to severely active Crohns disease CD. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study aims to compare these doses with a matching placebo during an induction treatment period. The study includes adult participants who have active symptoms of CD and have not adequately responded to other treatments. Participants will first undergo a 14-week induction period where they receive either one of the three blinded MORF-057 dose regimens or a matching placebo, all taken orally. Following this, all participants enter a 38-week maintenance period receiving open-label MORF-057. Those who complete this 52-week treatment phase may have the chance to continue treatment for an additional 52 weeks during a long-term extension. MORF-057 is designed to selectively inhibit integrin 47. During the study, participants will have their disease activity monitored using endoscopic assessments and clinical symptom scores, such as the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohns Disease SES-CD and the Crohns Disease Activity Index CDAI. Researchers will assess the proportion of participants showing endoscopic response and clinical remission at Week 14. Safety and adherence will be closely followed throughout the treatment and extension phases. The entire study spans up to 6 years, allowing for long-term evaluation.

Researchers are investigating the effectiveness and safety of combining petosemtamab with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone as first-line treatment for recurrent or metastatic PD-L1 positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma HNSCC. This Phase 3 randomized, open-label study focuses on patients who have not received previous systemic therapy for incurable recurrent or metastatic disease and aims to improve treatment outcomes in this population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the combination of petosemtamab plus pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab alone. The study excludes patients previously treated with anti PD-L1 or anti-EGFR therapies, with some exceptions for local treatments like cetuximab under specific conditions. The treatments will be administered as part of the trial, with researchers comparing the two approaches over the treatment period. During the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including tumor assessments based on RECIST v1.1 criteria, health-related quality of life questionnaires, and safety monitoring for adverse events. The main outcomes measured include overall survival and objective response rate up to approximately three years. Additional assessments include progression-free survival, duration of response, and pharmacokinetics. These activities aim to provide comprehensive data on how well the treatments work and their safety profiles throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of XEN1101 as an additional treatment for people with focal-onset seizures in a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. This trial aims to compare two doses of XEN1101 with a placebo to see how well the medication can reduce seizure frequency in patients who continue their current antiseizure medications. The study involves adults diagnosed with focal epilepsy who have tried at least two antiseizure medicines without achieving seizure freedom. About 360 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 25 mg or 15 mg of XEN1101 or a placebo once daily with an evening meal. The study includes up to 9.5 weeks of baseline monitoring to track seizure frequency followed by 12 weeks of blinded treatment. Participants maintaining the study drug can then join an open-label extension to continue treatment or enter an 8-week follow-up after treatment ends. Throughout the study, participants will keep accurate seizure diaries and continue their stable antiseizure medications. Researchers will measure the median percentage change in seizure frequency from baseline through the 12-week treatment period, along with secondary outcomes like the proportion of participants with at least a 50% reduction in seizures and patient-reported improvement. Safety will be monitored from screening until 56 days after the last dose. Overall, participants are involved for the baseline, treatment, and follow-up phases lasting several months.

Researchers are studying the effects and safety of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0662-0419 in people with type 2 diabetes. This study compares NNC0662-0419 with semaglutide, an approved diabetes medication, and a placebo to find out if NNC0662-0419 is an effective and safe treatment option. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of these treatments. Participants will receive their assigned treatment by weekly injections under the skin. The study includes groups receiving NNC0662-0419 with increasing doses, semaglutide, or placebo matched to the investigational medicines. Treatments will be given once a week during the study period. During the study, participants will have their blood sugar control monitored by measuring glycated hemoglobin HbA1c at various time points up to 40 weeks. Researchers will also track changes in body weight, blood sugar levels, cholesterol, kidney function, and the number of adverse events. The study lasts until about 48 weeks, allowing for safety and effectiveness assessments throughout this time.

Researchers are studying the effects of filgotinib in children and adolescents aged 8 to less than 18 years who have moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC. The study aims to evaluate how well filgotinib works, its safety, how well it is tolerated, and how the body processes the drug in this young population. About 80 participants will be enrolled, including at least 8 children aged 8 to less than 12 years. Participants will take filgotinib once daily in the morning, either with or without food, using age-appropriate tablets. Doses are designed to match the systemic exposure seen in adults treated with 200 mg daily. Participants will take the medication at home except for on-site dosing at Weeks 4, 10, and 22. Those not reaching remission or response by Week 10 will continue induction treatment until Week 22, after which lack of remission will lead to discontinuation. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess the drugs effectiveness and safety. The primary measure is remission at Week 10, with further assessments continuing through Week 58 and Week 62 to evaluate longer-term safety and tolerability. The total study duration extends to the primary completion date in June 2028.

Researchers are evaluating the combination of adagrasib, pembrolizumab, and platinum-doublet chemotherapy compared to placebo plus pembrolizumab and platinum-doublet chemotherapy in adults with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC carrying the KRAS G12C mutation. This Phase 3 trial aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of these treatment combinations in this specific patient group. Participants will receive either adagrasib plus pembrolizumab combined with platinum-doublet chemotherapy or placebo plus pembrolizumab and platinum-doublet chemotherapy. Treatments involve specified doses administered on scheduled days, with the chemotherapy consisting of carboplatin or cisplatin along with pemetrexed. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the two study groups and treatments are blinded to ensure unbiased assessment. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including imaging scans to measure tumor response and progression-free survival, as well as assessments of overall survival. Safety is closely monitored by recording adverse events for up to 90 days after the last dose. Quality of life and symptom assessments are also conducted using validated questionnaires. The study duration includes follow-up for up to seven years to gather comprehensive data on treatment outcomes and participant health.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the drugs eltrekibart and mirikizumab in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. This Phase 2 study aims to find out how these treatments work alone or in combination to improve UC symptoms and health. The study is sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company and will last about 4 to 5 years, including screening. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of several treatments eltrekibart with a placebo, mirikizumab with a placebo, both drugs together, or placebo alone. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment is given to ensure unbiased results. The treatment period includes dosing with the study drugs or placebo, and participants will be monitored for safety and response. Participants will be involved in the trial for around 69 weeks, including a screening period of up to 35 days before starting treatment. Throughout the study, they will undergo assessments to measure clinical remission, response, endoscopic improvement, and quality of life using questionnaires. Blood samples will be taken to study drug levels, and researchers will monitor safety and disease activity regularly. The main outcome is the percentage of participants achieving clinical remission at Week 12, with additional measures assessed up to Week 52.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of several long-acting antibody treatments for adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC. This Phase 2, multicenter platform study aims to compare multiple investigational therapies, including both single agents and combinations, to better understand their potential benefits and risks. The study is sponsored by Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. and involves adults aged 18 to 75 years with active UC confirmed by endoscopy and histology.

Researchers are evaluating whether combining vedolizumab and upadacitinib, called dual targeted therapy DTT, reduces bowel inflammation and ulcers more effectively than vedolizumab alone in adults with moderately to severely active Crohns Disease CD. The study also compares the safety and effectiveness of these treatments. This Phase 3b trial is conducted worldwide and sponsored by Takeda, enrolling about 396 participants. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either vedolizumab with upadacitinib or vedolizumab with a placebo for 12 weeks during the Induction Phase. Vedolizumab is given as a 300 mg intravenous infusion at Weeks 0, 2, 6, and 10 upadacitinib or placebo is taken daily by mouth. Those who respond to treatment at Week 12 will continue with vedolizumab alone every 8 weeks for 40 weeks in the Maintenance Phase. Vedolizumab dosing frequency may increase to every 4 weeks if needed. During the approximately 70-week study, participants visit the clinic 15 times for assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and patient-reported outcomes. Researchers measure clinical remission, endoscopic response, and safety outcomes at Week 12 and Week 52. There is also an 18-week safety follow-up after the maintenance period to monitor participants health.

Psoriatic arthritis PsA is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the joints and skin in people with psoriasis. This study aims to evaluate how well zasocitinib TAK-279 works in adults with active PsA who have not previously been treated with biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. The trial is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study comparing zasocitinib with an active comparator and placebo. Participants will be assigned to one of four groups zasocitinib Dose A once daily, zasocitinib Dose B once daily, an active comparator capsule twice daily, or placebo once daily for 16 weeks followed by switching to zasocitinib Dose A or B up to 52 weeks. Treatments are taken orally as tablets or capsules over a period of up to 60 weeks. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including joint counts, skin evaluations, and various disease activity measurements such as ACR20 and PASI-75 responses. Researchers will monitor changes from baseline in functional and quality of life scores, as well as safety and tolerability. Participants will be involved in visits throughout the treatment period to evaluate the effects and collect data on the disease and treatment responses.
