Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of elecoglipron, an oral tablet taken once daily, for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight. This Phase III global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes two independent pivotal studies one in adults without type 2 diabetes T2DM and the other in adults with T2DM, all having at least one weight-related health condition. The goal is to understand how elecoglipron compares to placebo when combined with diet and exercise. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of elecoglipron or a matching placebo daily. Study 1 involves about 3000 adults living with obesity or overweight without T2DM, while Study 2 involves about 1500 adults with obesity or overweight and T2DM. Both studies last 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures will be monitored. During the trial, participants will undergo regular health assessments including measurements of body weight, waist circumference, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and other related health indicators. Researchers will track percent change in body weight from baseline at 72 weeks as the primary outcome. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatment in managing weight and associated health conditions.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of elecoglipron compared with placebo in adults who have type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM with impaired kidney function. Participants are also on dapagliflozin 10 mg as part of their guideline-directed medical therapy for chronic kidney disease CKD, along with other glucose-lowering medications. This Phase III study aims to understand how elecoglipron performs in this specific group of patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups elecoglipron at dose level 1, elecoglipron at dose level 2, or placebo. All treatments are given orally once daily alongside background dapagliflozin 10 mg. The study uses a parallel design and includes a 40-week treatment period during which participants take their assigned medication. During the study, participants will have their blood sugar control measured through Hemoglobin A1c HbA1c levels from baseline to Week 40, which is the primary outcome. Additional assessments include body weight changes, blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, and time to needing additional diabetes medication. Safety and tolerability will be monitored throughout the study, which lasts up to 40 weeks for each participant.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of elecoglipron compared with placebo in adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus T2DM who are already being treated with insulin and other glucose-lowering medications. This Phase III study focuses on adults with T2DM who have had the condition for at least 90 days and meet certain health criteria. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups elecoglipron at dose level 1, elecoglipron at dose level 2, or placebo. All treatments are taken orally once daily. The study treatment period lasts up to 40 weeks, during which participants continue their background insulin and glucose-lowering medications. During the study, participants will have regular assessments to monitor changes in blood sugar control, including Hemoglobin A1c HbA1c, body weight, blood pressure, and insulin dose. Researchers will also track safety, side effects, and tolerability. The main outcome is the change in HbA1c from baseline to Week 40. Overall, participation involves visits for monitoring and evaluations over approximately 40 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0519-0130 in people living with chronic kidney disease, some of whom have type 2 diabetes and are overweight or obese. This Phase 2 study also compares NNC0519-0130 to semaglutide, an already prescribed medicine, and a placebo to see how they may improve kidney function. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive once-weekly subcutaneous injections of NNC0519-0130 with a fixed dose escalation until reaching a maintenance dose, semaglutide with a similar dosing schedule, or a placebo matching NNC0519-0130. The treatment period lasts up to 43 weeks with several dosing schemes and groups. During the study, participants will have their kidney function monitored through urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio changes at weeks 12, 24, and 36. Other assessments include estimated glomerular filtration rate, body weight changes, waist circumference, blood pressure, and glycated hemoglobin levels. Safety will be evaluated by tracking adverse events throughout the trial duration. Participants will be regularly assessed to understand the medicines effects and safety.

This research aims to evaluate how well two new drugs, CagriSema and cagrilintide, help children and adolescents with excess body weight lose weight. The study includes participants aged 8 to under 18 years who have overweight or obesity. It is a Phase 3 trial that compares these new drugs with semaglutide, a drug already prescribed for weight management, and a placebo to understand their effects on weight loss. Participants in the main study are randomly assigned to receive one of four treatments CagriSema, cagrilintide, semaglutide, or placebo. All treatments are given once weekly as subcutaneous injections, starting with a dose escalation phase lasting up to 16 weeks, followed by a maintenance phase for 52 weeks. Those who receive semaglutide do not join the extension study. Participants in the extension study continue treatment with either CagriSema or cagrilintide for up to 156 weeks, while placebo participants follow a specific dosing regimen before continuing in the extension. During the study, participants will be monitored for changes in body mass index BMI and weight over time, with assessments at baseline, week 68, and for some measures, week 224. Researchers will also track body composition, metabolic markers, quality of life, and safety events. The entire duration for participants can be up to nearly five years if they take part in both the main and extension studies, involving regular visits and evaluations to understand the treatments effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a new medicine called NNC0487-0111 in people who have Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction HFpEF or Heart Failure with mildly reduced Ejection Fraction HFmrEF and excess body weight. This phase 3 clinical trial aims to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating these conditions compared to a placebo. Participants have HFpEF or HFmrEF and a body mass index of 30 or above. The study is sponsored by Novo Nordisk AS and uses a randomized, quadruple-masked design. Participants will receive either NNC0487-0111 or a matching placebo by injection under the skin once a week. The NNC0487-0111 is given in increasing doses over time. The study is parallel in design, meaning participants are randomly assigned to one of the two groups and receive that treatment throughout the trial. This treatment period extends for up to about 165 weeks. The study evaluates the time to certain heart failure events, hospitalizations, cardiovascular deaths, and other major cardiovascular events. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess heart failure outcomes and kidney function, as well as quality of life using questionnaires like the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. Safety and effectiveness are assessed through hospital visits, heart failure event tracking, and blood tests including kidney function and blood sugar levels. The total participation spans over three years, with ongoing evaluations to measure the time to heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes. Participants receive close medical monitoring throughout the study period.

Researchers are studying the effectiveness and safety of eloralintide in adults who are obese or overweight but do not have type 2 diabetes. This Phase 3 trial aims to understand how eloralintide affects body weight and related health measures over a long period. The study includes a main phase and an extension phase for those with prediabetes to evaluate ongoing effects. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of four doses of eloralintide or a placebo, all given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The main phase lasts about 75 weeks, and participants with prediabetes may continue in an extension phase for an additional two years. This structure allows researchers to assess both short-term and longer-term outcomes. During the study, participants will have regular visits to measure body weight, body fat, waist size, blood pressure, blood markers like triglycerides and insulin, and quality of life questionnaires. Safety and treatment effects are monitored throughout. The main outcome is the percent change in body weight from the start to week 64, with follow-up continuing up to week 191 for some. Overall participation can last up to several years depending on the participants health status.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of eloralintide in adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea who are also overweight or obese. This trial is structured as a master protocol called YDAO, which supports two studies YSA1 for participants who do not use or refuse Positive Airway Pressure PAP therapy, and YSA2 for those who have been on PAP therapy for at least three months and plan to continue it. The study aims to understand how eloralintide affects body weight and sleep apnea severity over time. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either eloralintide or a placebo through subcutaneous injections once weekly. The study includes two parallel groups reflecting current PAP therapy use. Treatment lasts about 64 weeks, followed by assessments. The design includes double-blinding to compare the effects between intervention and placebo groups. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for changes in body weight and apnea-hypopnea index AHI at baseline and week 64. Additional measurements include blood pressure, triglycerides, inflammation markers, sleep-related impairment scores, and glucose metabolism. Researchers will also track patient-reported outcomes, medication use, and pharmacokinetics. Participation lasts approximately 76 weeks, covering screening, treatment, and follow-up evaluations to ensure safety and collect comprehensive data.

Researchers are evaluating orforglipron to measure its effects on cardiovascular outcomes in adults aged 50 and older who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD andor chronic kidney disease CKD. This phase 3 study aims to compare orforglipron with a placebo to better understand its impact on major cardiovascular events over about five years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either orforglipron orally along with standard care or a placebo orally along with standard care. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers will know who receives the active drug or placebo during the trial period. During the study, participants will be followed for around five years, with researchers monitoring the time to the first major cardiovascular event and additional outcomes such as cardiovascular and kidney events, changes in kidney function measured by eGFR, and the onset of type 2 diabetes. The study includes regular assessments to track these outcomes and ensure participant safety throughout the long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the use of SNP-ACTH 1-39 Gel compared to rituximab for treating adults with primary membranous nephropathy PMN, a kidney condition. This trial uses a two-phase adaptive design to find the best dose of SNP-ACTH Gel and then assess its effectiveness against rituximab. The study is divided into Phase 3a for dose finding and Phase 3b for comparing treatments over 24 months. In Phase 3a, up to 24 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either 3 mg or 5 mg of SNP-ACTH Gel by subcutaneous injection three times a week for 12 months. Data from this phase will guide dose selection for Phase 3b. In Phase 3b, 132 patients will be randomized to receive either the selected dose of SNP-ACTH Gel for 12 months or rituximab infusions given in two cycles, one at the start and one at six months. Participants will be monitored throughout the study with regular assessments of urinary protein and auto-antibody levels during Phase 3a, and clinical responses at 24 months in Phase 3b. Researchers will track kidney function, relapse rates, immune responses, and safety outcomes. Study visits and evaluations will occur at multiple time points up to two years, supporting detailed understanding of treatment effects and patient health over time.
