Researchers are evaluating the effects of a triple therapy inhaler combining budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate BGF MDI 32014.49.6 g compared to a dual therapy inhaler with glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate GFF MDI 14.49.6 g on heart and lung outcomes in adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD who have a higher risk for heart and lung events. This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and conducted at multiple centers, focusing on participants with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk. Participants will receive either the triple therapy inhaler or the dual therapy inhaler, both administered twice daily. The study compares these two inhalers over a period of up to three years, monitoring for serious cardiac or COPD events. The trial includes careful evaluation of various heart and lung-related health events during this period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through regular visits, assessments, and tests to measure lung function, heart events, and COPD exacerbations. Researchers will track the time until the first severe cardiac or COPD event and evaluate other cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes over up to three years. Participants will also be assessed for their ability to properly use the inhaler and adherence to the study protocol throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the AcoArt drug-coated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty PTA balloon catheters in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease undergoing lower limb revascularization. This observational study includes patients with varying severity of arterial disease, classified by Rutherford Clinical Categories 2-6, to monitor real-world outcomes following standard treatment practices. Participants will receive treatment using one of three types of AcoArt drug-coated PTA balloon cathetersOrchid, Tulip, or Litosdesigned for arteries in the lower limbs. The study is a single-arm, multi-center follow-up that observes outcomes without altering usual care, focusing on two patient groups those with moderate symptoms Rutherford 2-3 and those with critical limb ischemia Rutherford 4-6. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments to track safety and treatment effectiveness at multiple time points, including 30 days, 6 months, 12 months, and up to 60 months. Researchers will collect data on clinical improvements, wound healing, need for additional procedures, survival rates, and amputation rates. Patients are expected to attend follow-up visits and comply with study protocols for monitoring and data collection during this extended observation period.

Researchers are collecting data in a registry study for adults diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia AML, including newly diagnosed and relapsed cases. The study aims to gather important information about the diseases epidemiology, such as patient age and prognostic factors, and to compare incidence and age distribution with population tumor registry data. It also evaluates key clinical outcomes like relapse-free survival, time to relapse, cumulative incidence of relapse, and overall survival. This observational study does not involve treatment assignment but documents treatment strategies used by patients. Data is gathered over a 10-year period to thoroughly monitor outcomes and disease patterns. The registry also collects information on complete remission rates, treatment-related mortality, therapy-associated morbidity, and quality of therapy and diagnosis. Additionally, the study seeks to validate known prognostic factors and explore new ones while describing new therapies and supportive care measures. Participants are adults aged 18 years and older diagnosed with AML according to WHO criteria, including acute promyelocytic leukemia. The study involves long-term follow-up with yearly assessments over 10 years. Researchers will evaluate epidemiological parameters and important survival outcomes. Since this is an observational registry, participants continue with their usual care while data is collected. The study is sponsored by Technische Universitt Dresden and involves multiple sites in Germany.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of vicadrostat combined with empagliflozin in adults who have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease but no history of heart failure. The study aims to assess whether this combination can help reduce cardiovascular risks compared to a placebo with empagliflozin. This Phase III trial involves adults with these conditions who are already receiving treatment for them. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets daily, while the other group takes placebo tablets that look like vicadrostat but have no active medicine, alongside empagliflozin. Treatment lasts from two and a half years up to four years and three months. All participants continue their usual medications for diabetes, blood pressure, and heart disease during the study. Throughout the study, lasting up to four years and three months, participants visit the study site regularly for health checks and blood samples. Doctors monitor cardiovascular events and any side effects experienced. The main outcome measured is the time until the first cardiovascular death or heart failure event. Other health indicators like blood pressure and kidney function are also tracked to understand the effects of the treatment combination.

This research aims to gather detailed data and biomaterials from adults diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia ALL and related diseases, including certain types of Leukemia and Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. The registry supports ALL research and quality assurance by collecting information regardless of whether patients participate in clinical trials. The study is observational and involves adults diagnosed and treated under ALL protocols. Participants include adults aged 18 and older with ALL subtypes, other leukemias treated according to ALL protocols, and specific subtypes of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma treated under B-ALL protocols. The study collects data prospectively on diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes, along with biomaterials related to these conditions. Participants provide information during routine clinical care and follow-up visits for up to 10 years. Data collected includes survival rates, remission status assessed by various methods including PET scans, relapse rates, quality of life questionnaires, and monitoring of toxicities and comorbidities. The study tracks overall survival and other outcomes over long-term follow-up to support research and quality assurance in adult ALL and related diseases.

Immune thrombocytopenia ITP is a rare blood disorder caused by an autoimmune condition that reduces platelet counts, increasing the risk of bleeding or prolonged bleeding. New treatments for ITP have emerged recently, but existing clinical studies are limited in their applicability to everyday patient care due to strict criteria. This registry aims to collect real-world clinical data and biospecimens from patients with various types of ITP to improve understanding of diagnosis, therapy, and patient outcomes in routine treatment. The registry includes patients diagnosed with primary or secondary ITP who consent to participate. Data collection occurs at defined points in the disease course either prospectively or retrospectively up to 12 months after diagnosis, provided continuous documentation is available. Biospecimens are collected and stored systematically to support research. Clinical information collected includes disease characteristics, treatment types, complications, quality of life, fatigue scores, and survival data over a follow-up period of up to 5 years. Participants provide clinical data and biosamples at enrollment, then again at 6 months and annually for up to 5 years. Assessments include platelet counts, bleeding and thromboembolic events, laboratory markers such as specific antibodies, and patient-reported outcomes like quality of life and fatigue. The study gathers epidemiological data on incidence, age, sex distribution, causes of ITP, treatment received, and remission status. The registry helps advance knowledge about ITP through long-term monitoring and standardized data collection.
