Researchers are studying the dose-response effects of galvokimig compared with a placebo in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a chronic skin condition lasting at least one year. The study focuses on adults aged 18 years and older who have significant disease activity as measured by specific clinical scores and a history of inadequate response to topical treatments or contraindications to them. This phase 2 trial aims to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and how the drug behaves in the body. Participants will receive either galvokimig or a placebo as an injection. The study uses a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design with multiple doses tested in parallel groups. Treatments are given as solutions for injection, and the study monitors participants over a defined period to assess how the drug works and its safety profile. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including clinical scoring of their skin condition such as the Eczema Area and Severity Index at week 16 to measure response. Researchers will also monitor safety through physical exams, laboratory tests, and medical history reviews. The study requires stopping other systemic or topical treatments before starting and tracks participant adherence and outcomes carefully throughout the study duration.

Researchers are investigating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and high blood pressure. This Phase III, international, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to see if this combination reduces risks such as significant kidney function decline, kidney failure, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death. The study includes a 4-week run-in period where participants not previously treated with SGLT2 inhibitors receive dapagliflozin alone. After this, participants are randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or placebo plus dapagliflozin in a double-blinded manner. Study visits occur frequently initially (at 2, 4, 8, 16, 34, and 52 weeks after randomization) and then approximately every 4 months. If participants stop the blinded treatment early, they continue dapagliflozin alone unless specific criteria require its discontinuation. Participants will undergo regular assessments including blood pressure monitoring and laboratory tests related to kidney function and cardiovascular health. The primary outcome measures the reduction in risk of major kidney and heart events over up to 37 months. Even if participants stop the study treatment, they will continue follow-up visits and data collection to ensure comprehensive safety and efficacy evaluation throughout the study duration.

Researchers are studying how well and safely orforglipron works in adult women who have stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and are overweight or have obesity. SUI is a condition where urine leaks during movements like coughing or exercising. This trial is part of a master protocol including two independent studies, and it is a Phase 3 clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either orforglipron tablets or a placebo, both taken orally once daily. The treatment period and study participation will last approximately 58 weeks, including screening and safety follow-up. The study compares the effects of orforglipron against placebo in this specific group of female patients. During the study, researchers will track changes in the frequency of incontinence episodes from the start to week 52. Participants will undergo screening, treatment, and safety monitoring throughout the trial. The study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of orforglipron in reducing urinary leakage events over time.

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.

Researchers are conducting a national, prospective, multicenter observational pilot project in the Czech Republic focused on screening for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH) in patients after an episode of Acute Pulmonary Embolism (APE). The main aim is to develop, test, and implement a standardized procedure for early detection of CTEPH and ensure rapid referral to specialized centers treating this condition. Early detection and timely treatment are important to improve patients' quality of life and reduce the risk of complications or death. The study uses a standardized CTEPH screening protocol designed to identify patients after APE who may have or develop CTEPH. This includes implementing a uniform screening algorithm and optimizing the referral process to specialized pulmonary hypertension centers. The project plans to include around 500 patients across about 10 selected centers, focusing on validating the screening process and patient flow from cardiologists to pulmonary hypertension treatment centers. Participants will be followed for up to six months from enrollment. Researchers will assess the positive predictive value of the initial examination, the rate of detecting CTEPH, and how many patients with suspected CTEPH attend follow-up exams at specialized centers. The study involves monitoring patients' symptoms, risk factors, and screening outcomes to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of the screening approach.

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.

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.
