Researchers are conducting a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rilzabrutinib in adults with active Immunoglobulin G4-related disease IgG4-RD. The study aims to measure the time to the first adjudicated disease flare and assess other important outcomes such as flare-free rates, disease activity control, glucocorticoid use, and safety parameters including adverse events, laboratory tests, and electrocardiograms ECG. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups one receiving rilzabrutinib tablets and the other receiving placebo tablets, both administered orally. The treatment period lasts 52 weeks in a double-blind manner, preceded by a 4 to 6 week screening period. After treatment, there is a 2-week follow-up, with an optional open-label extension lasting up to 108 weeks. The study includes a total of 16 visits during the main period and up to 9 additional visits during the optional extension. During their participation, adults diagnosed with IgG4-RD will undergo repeated imaging procedures such as CT, MRI, PET, or ultrasound to assess disease status. Researchers will monitor disease flares, remission status, glucocorticoid dosage, clinical activity scores, laboratory values, vital signs, and ECG results. Safety monitoring continues up to week 160 to capture treatment-emergent adverse events. Overall, participation lasts up to 60 weeks, with possible extension for those continuing in the optional phase.

Researchers are studying pulmonary arterial hypertension PAH, a condition where lung blood vessels become thick and narrow, causing high blood pressure in the lungs and making it hard for the heart to work. PAH can cause difficulty breathing and limit activity. While standard treatments help symptoms, they do not stop the disease from worsening. This research focuses on sotatercept, a targeted therapy aimed at specific proteins involved in PAH, to learn about its long-term safety and tolerability when added to usual PAH treatments. Participants in this long-term follow-up study, who previously took part in certain sotatercept trials, may continue receiving sotatercept by subcutaneous injection every three weeks. Those coming from blinded studies start at 0.3 mgkg with possible increases up to 0.7 mgkg, while those from unblinded studies continue their current dose with possible titration to 0.7 mgkg. The study monitors participants over an extended period to assess continued effects alongside their usual PAH therapy. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including monitoring for adverse events, blood tests for blood components and chemistry, body weight, blood pressure, and ECG readings. Researchers will also evaluate exercise capacity, heart function markers, and risk scores related to PAH. The study aims to follow participants for up to approximately 7 to 8 years to understand long-term safety, treatment tolerability, and health changes while using sotatercept with standard PAH care.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of enicepatide, a dual GLP-1GIP receptor agonist, at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight who do not have Type 2 diabetes. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind study aims to assess both the efficacy and safety of once-weekly enicepatide in this population, addressing weight-related comorbidities such as prediabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular conditions. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or one of three enicepatide dosing regimens, administered once weekly via an integrated drug-device combination product. The treatment phase lasts through 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures are monitored. The study includes multiple assessments to track body weight percentage change, waist circumference, fasting glucose and insulin levels, lipid profiles, blood pressure, and quality of life measures. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including physical examinations, laboratory tests, and questionnaires related to physical functioning and urinary incontinence. Researchers will monitor adverse events, patient-reported health questionnaires, and biomarkers at baseline and weekly intervals through week 72. This long-term follow-up allows for a comprehensive assessment of treatment effects and safety in participants managing obesity or overweight without Type 2 diabetes.

Researchers are studying people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis IPF or progressive pulmonary fibrosis PPF who have previously taken nerandomilast in another study. The aim is to assess how well patients tolerate long-term treatment with nerandomilast and to evaluate whether it improves lung function and delays worsening symptoms, hospital visits, or death. This open-label extension trial is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim and focuses on treatment over an extended period. Participants take nerandomilast tablets for up to 1 year and 10 months while continuing their usual pulmonary fibrosis treatments. The study involves a single treatment group receiving the drug, and no placebo or comparison groups. Regular visits with doctors help monitor health and collect data during this extended treatment phase. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular lung function tests and health assessments to track any adverse events and changes in lung capacity. The main outcome measured is the occurrence of any adverse events for up to about 99 weeks. Secondary outcomes include changes in forced vital capacity and time to worsening of disease symptoms or hospitalization. The study includes ongoing safety monitoring with a total participation time of up to nearly two years.

This research aims to describe the clinical, histological, and radiological features of rare primary liver cancers. It focuses on collecting tumor and blood samples to better understand these cancers and to evaluate how well treatments used in real-world practice work, with the goal of identifying the best treatment sequences. The study serves as a foundation for future research to find new molecular and imaging biomarkers that could improve diagnosis and prognosis. The study is observational and retrospective, meaning it reviews past cases from multiple centers in France. It collects biological samples and clinical data from patients diagnosed with rare primary liver cancers after January 2018. The study evaluates treatments patients have received in clinical practice without assigning any new treatments or interventions. Participants data, including clinical characteristics, tumor biology, and imaging, will be reviewed for up to five years from diagnosis. Researchers will measure outcomes such as recurrence-free survival for patients without metastases, progression-free survival for those with metastases, and overall survival. The study includes both living patients who consent to participate and deceased patients, aiming to gather comprehensive information to support future translational studies.

This research aims to gather long-term safety and effectiveness information for people treated with ibrutinib, a medicine taken by mouth that blocks a specific enzyme called brutons tyrosine kinase. The study focuses on participants who previously took part in ibrutinib studies that have finished and are still receiving ibrutinib treatment, continuing to benefit from it. It is an open-label study, meaning both participants and researchers know the treatment being given. Participants will continue taking ibrutinib capsules daily at the dose they were given in their prior study until the doctor decides the treatment is no longer helpful due to disease progression or side effects, the participant chooses to stop, other treatment options become available, or the study ends. Safety will be monitored throughout, and effectiveness data may be combined with previous study results. No formal testing of hypotheses is planned in this extension. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for safety and disease status. The main outcome is the number of participants experiencing side effects within 30 days after the last ibrutinib dose or before starting another cancer therapy. Participants may continue treatment until alternative access to ibrutinib is arranged or the study ends, which is planned for December 2029. Researchers will collect ongoing data to understand the long-term effects of ibrutinib treatment.

Researchers are evaluating whether retatrutide and tirzepatide can prevent major adverse liver outcomes in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease MASLD who are at high risk based on non-invasive tests. This Phase 3 randomized controlled trial aims to assess these treatments compared to placebo in about 4,500 adults over approximately 224 weeks. The study is sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company and focuses on liver disease progression and related health measures. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive retatrutide, tirzepatide, or placebo, all administered by subcutaneous injection. The trial includes two placebo groups corresponding to each experimental drug. After completing the main study, eligible participants may join a 2-year extension where all will receive either retatrutide or tirzepatide regardless of their initial assignment. During the study, participants may attend around 25 to 30 clinic visits for health monitoring, study procedures, and assessments of liver function and disease status. Researchers will measure the time to major adverse liver outcomes, changes in liver fibrosis scores, liver stiffness, liver fat content, liver enzyme levels, body weight, and cardiovascular events. Monitoring will continue from baseline through study completion, with detailed evaluations at multiple timepoints including week 104.

This trial studies adults aged 50 to under 80 with mild or moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis and elevated lipoproteina levels. Researchers are assessing the safety, tolerability, and ability of pelacarsen TQJ230 given once monthly by injection to slow the progression of this heart valve condition. The study compares pelacarsen to a placebo in a randomized, double-blind design. Participants receive either pelacarsen 80 mg or a matching placebo as a subcutaneous injection monthly. They continue treatment and monitoring for up to 36 months to observe changes in heart valve narrowing and calcium buildup. The study also tracks lipoproteina levels and clinical heart-related events during this period. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including imaging to measure aortic valve function and calcium score, blood tests for lipoproteina, and monitoring for safety. The main outcomes analyzed after 36 months include changes in valve jet velocity and calcium score, alongside clinical events. Participants remain under medical care while being observed for any effects of the study drug or placebo.
