Researchers are studying advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has returned after prior adjuvant therapy. The trial aims to find out if treatment with belzutifan and zanzalintinib helps patients live longer and delays disease progression compared to treatment with cabozantinib. This is a Phase 3 randomized study focusing on participants with recurrent advanced RCC who have previously received anti-PD-1/L1 therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of two oral drug regimens: either belzutifan combined with zanzalintinib, both taken once daily, or cabozantinib alone, also taken once daily. The study compares these treatments to assess their effects on disease control and overall survival. During the study, participants will be monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival for up to approximately 73 months. Researchers will evaluate how well the cancer responds to treatment and track any changes in health status over time. Safety and effectiveness of the treatments will be closely followed throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) alone or combined with other treatments in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This study aims to understand how well patients tolerate the treatment, find a safe dose for combining I-DXd with other drugs, and measure prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels during treatment. The study is part of a larger master screening protocol and includes patients with confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma who have progressive disease despite prior therapies. Participants receive treatments including I-DXd given through intravenous infusion, sometimes combined with other drugs such as docetaxel (IV), MK-5684, abiraterone, or enzalutamide (all oral). Before each I-DXd dose, patients take premedication to prevent nausea and vomiting. The study includes both a safety lead-in phase and an efficacy phase, with ongoing monitoring for side effects and tolerability. The combination therapies are carefully dosed and scheduled according to the study protocol. During the study, participants undergo regular assessments to monitor side effects, measure PSA response, and track any dose-limiting toxicities. Safety is closely followed, particularly during the first 21 days for combination treatments, and throughout up to 54 months for long-term outcomes. Researchers also observe if participants discontinue treatment due to adverse events. The study requires ongoing visits and evaluations to ensure participant health and collect data on treatment effects over time.

Researchers are creating a national, prospective cohort to study children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS), a rare kidney disease. The goal is to collect detailed data on patients treated in pediatric nephrology centers across France, Reunion Island, Mayotte, and eventually other French overseas territories. This structured follow-up aims to better understand the disease's characteristics and provide a foundation for future clinical trials. The study involves enrolling pediatric patients diagnosed with INS and systematically collecting clinical, biological, psychological, and social data. Biological samples such as blood, urine, hair, and nails will be gathered at disease onset before immunosuppressive treatment begins. Data will be recorded through medical records from hospital visits and consultations, supplemented by annual telephone interviews for patients without active disease. Quality of life, treatment adherence, and aesthetic impact questionnaires will also be collected and integrated into a secure database. Participants will be followed over at least two years, with data collected regularly by clinical research staff. This includes medical validation of clinical information, annual telephone follow-ups, and questionnaire assessments. The study's primary outcome is the number and characteristics of included cases over two years. This ongoing monitoring will support future nested studies and improve understanding of pediatric INS outcomes and management.

Malignant hypertension is a very severe type of high blood pressure that can be fatal if not treated. It mainly affects younger adults aged 35 to 55 and carries a high risk of serious heart and kidney problems. Despite its severity and increasing cases, research on malignant hypertension is limited, with diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines that have not changed since 1929. This study aims to create the first prospective, multicenter registry to better understand the disease's epidemiology, care practices, and biological aspects, and to modernize its definition and diagnosis. The study plans to enroll 500 patients diagnosed with malignant hypertension based on classic criteria, including severe high blood pressure above 180/110 mmHg and evidence of organ damage. It will collect detailed data on patient characteristics, affected organs, and treatment approaches used in various centers. This registry will help develop new diagnostic and treatment recommendations based on solid scientific evidence and may lead to future therapeutic trials. Participants will be followed to evaluate their health outcomes over five years, focusing on their cardiovascular and renal prognosis. Researchers will analyze how patient profiles and the number and type of organ damage affect their long-term outlook. The study will document epidemiology, care pathways, organ involvement, and management strategies in detail to improve understanding and care of malignant hypertension.

Researchers are studying patients with completely removed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have common EGFR mutations (L858R and Del19). The study aims to include broad-panel centralized genetic testing at the start to better understand factors predicting outcomes and resistance to the drug osimertinib when used after surgery. It also investigates the molecular changes linked to cancer returning during or after osimertinib treatment to find better treatment options if the cancer comes back in a metastatic form. The study involves collecting plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) samples before surgery (optional), 4 to 8 weeks after surgery, before starting any adjuvant chemotherapy or osimertinib treatment, every six months during follow-up, and at relapse. Tumor tissue samples from surgery and optionally at relapse are also collected for molecular analysis. Patients may receive adjuvant chemotherapy if needed before starting osimertinib, which is given with the intent to treat for three years. Participants will be regularly followed every 3 to 6 months according to standard recommendations. Researchers will monitor genetic markers using blood and tissue samples to study cancer relapse and resistance. The main outcome is to assess the feasibility of this molecular monitoring approach over an 18-month period. Safety and long-term follow-up are included, aiming to improve treatment decisions for patients with resected NSCLC and EGFR mutations.

Researchers are evaluating how well oral icotrokinra works, its safety, and how well patients tolerate it in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic condition where the colon lining becomes inflamed and develops ulcers. This is a Phase 3 study aimed at finding effective treatments for this condition using a rigorous comparison. Participants will receive either icotrokinra tablets or placebo tablets taken by mouth. The study includes an induction phase and a maintenance phase, with adults participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, while adolescents join an open-label maintenance study. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor clinical remission rates at 12 weeks during induction and at 40 weeks during maintenance. Participants will undergo assessments including endoscopic evaluations and pregnancy tests for females of childbearing potential. Safety and tolerability will be closely observed, with the total study duration covering both induction and maintenance periods.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986504, a selective PRMT5 inhibitor, when combined with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine, compared to a placebo combined with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine. The study focuses on participants with untreated metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who have a specific genetic alteration called homozygous MTAP deletion. This is a randomized Phase 2/3 trial designed to explore treatment options for this patient population. Participants will be assigned to receive either BMS-986504 at specified doses on certain days along with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine, or a placebo with the same chemotherapy drugs. The treatments are given according to protocol schedules. Some participants may have received up to one cycle of Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine before starting the study treatment, provided they did not experience disease progression or intolerable side effects. The initial cycle must be completed before randomization. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for progression-free survival and overall survival for up to three years after the last participant is randomized. Assessments include measuring tumor response using established criteria (RECIST v1.1). Participants will undergo evaluations to track safety, treatment effects, and disease status throughout the trial period.

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 treatments for adults with early-stage (stage II to IIIB) non-small cell lung cancer who are scheduled for surgery. The study aims to compare an investigational treatment combining the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab, chemotherapy, and a third drug against cemiplimab plus chemotherapy alone. The trial also explores side effects of these treatments, effects on the type of surgery performed, drug levels in the blood, and whether the body produces antibodies that might affect the treatment's effectiveness or cause side effects. Participants receive treatments through intravenous infusions. One group receives cemiplimab plus chemotherapy, while the other group receives cemiplimab, chemotherapy, and an additional drug called REGN7075. The treatments are given before surgery with the goal of shrinking tumors. The study is a randomized Phase 2 platform trial designed to assess these combined therapies in a perioperative setting. During the study, participants undergo evaluations including pathology reviews up to 12 weeks after treatment to determine tumor response. Researchers monitor major pathological responses and collect tumor samples. Safety and side effects are closely followed. Overall, the study involves treatment, surgery, and follow-up assessments to understand how well the treatments work and their safety profiles.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of icotrokinra in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease, a chronic condition causing severe inflammation in the intestinal tract. This Phase 2b/3 study aims to understand how well icotrokinra works compared to a placebo in improving symptoms and intestinal healing in this patient group. Participants will receive either icotrokinra or a matching placebo orally every day. The study includes both induction and maintenance phases where researchers assess clinical and endoscopic responses at specific time points, such as Week 12 and Week 40, to determine treatment effects over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and safety monitoring. Researchers will measure outcomes like clinical response, clinical remission, and endoscopic healing at Weeks 12 and 40. The study involves regular monitoring to track the participants' health and treatment adherence over the duration of the trial.
