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.

This research aims to assess how satisfied people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) are after receiving subcutaneous (under the skin) injections of ocrelizumab over a period of 12 months. The study focuses on participants diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS (RMS) or primary progressive MS (PPMS) according to 2017 McDonald criteria, who are starting ocrelizumab treatment for the first time. The main goal is to understand participant satisfaction using a special questionnaire designed for subcutaneous therapy administration. Participants will receive ocrelizumab as an injection under the skin, with the exact dosing and schedule determined by their treating physician following local medical guidelines. This observational study does not change standard care but monitors patients throughout their treatment with ocrelizumab. During the study, participants will complete the Therapy Administration Satisfaction Questionnaire for subcutaneous treatment after 12 months to measure their satisfaction. Researchers will also observe and record any relevant clinical information. The total study duration for each participant is 12 months, during which their experience and outcomes with ocrelizumab are carefully tracked.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a fixed-dose combination of fluticasone propionate (Fp) and albuterol sulfate (ABS) delivered via an integrated electronic module multidose dry powder inhaler (eMDPI) compared to ABS alone in reducing severe clinical asthma exacerbations in patients with asthma. The study also assesses the efficacy of a low dose of Fp/ABS versus ABS and examines the impact on systemic corticosteroid exposure. This is a phase 3 randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial involving patients diagnosed with asthma for at least one year. Participants will receive either a high dose or low dose of Fp/ABS or ABS alone through oral inhalation powder during a double-blind treatment period lasting a minimum of 24 weeks. The study includes a 2-week screening phase, a 2 to 4-week run-in period, and the treatment phase. Because this is an event-driven study, the total duration for individual participants may extend up to approximately 42 months depending on enrollment timing and study completion. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for time to first severe clinical asthma exacerbation while using the inhaler device. Safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study. Researchers will also track systemic corticosteroid use and overall asthma control. The minimum participation time is 28 weeks, including screening and run-in, with extended monitoring possible based on study events and criteria.
