Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0519-0130 on kidney function in adults with chronic kidney disease, some of whom may also have type 2 diabetes, and who are living with overweight or obesity. The study compares NNC0519-0130 with semaglutide, an existing medicine, and a placebo, which is a "dummy" treatment. This is a Phase 2 proof-of-concept and dose-finding study aimed at understanding how these treatments may reduce kidney damage. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups receiving either NNC0519-0130, semaglutide, or placebo. All treatments are given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The study treatment phase lasts up to 36 weeks, with assessments at weeks 12, 24, and 36 to monitor changes in kidney damage by measuring the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio. The overall study duration can be up to 43 weeks. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored through laboratory tests and clinical evaluations to assess kidney function and safety. Researchers will measure changes from the start of the study in the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio at multiple time points. Participants will also need to have stable doses of certain blood pressure medications before joining. Safety and treatment effects will be assessed throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating how well two new study drugs, CagriSema and cagrilintide, help children and adolescents with excess body weight lose weight. This trial includes participants aged 8 to less than 18 years who have overweight or obesity. The study is designed in two parts: a main study and an extension study. The main study compares CagriSema, cagrilintide, semaglutide (an already approved drug), and placebo, with treatments assigned randomly. Participants receiving semaglutide will not continue to the extension study. The total time in the main study is about 1 year and 6 months, while those in the extension study may participate for up to about 4 years and 10 months. Participants in the main study will receive one of the four treatments by subcutaneous injection. In the extension study, participants will receive either CagriSema or cagrilintide. The study drugs are monitored closely for safety, and participants may experience side effects. The study compares these new treatments to a placebo and an existing approved drug to better understand their effects on weight management in young people. During the study, researchers will measure changes in body mass index (BMI) from baseline to week 68 as the primary outcome. Participants will undergo various assessments including laboratory tests and physical evaluations. The study tracks adherence to treatment and monitors safety throughout the study period. This comprehensive approach aims to provide detailed information about the efficacy and safety of these medications for managing weight in children and adolescents.

Researchers are evaluating ziltivekimab as a treatment for people living with heart failure and inflammation. This Phase 3 study compares ziltivekimab to a placebo in participants with heart failure who have mild to preserved ejection fraction and systemic inflammation. The study aims to assess the effect of ziltivekimab on cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or urgent heart failure visits over a period of up to 4 years. Participants will receive monthly injections of either ziltivekimab or a placebo using a pre-filled syringe or a pen-injector. The study medication is administered subcutaneously once a month for up to 4 years. The trial includes up to 20 clinic visits during which participants will be monitored and assessed. During the study, participants will use a study app on their phone to record all injections and complete questionnaires. Researchers will monitor participants for key outcomes like cardiovascular events and heart failure episodes from the time of randomization until the end of the study. Safety and health status will be regularly evaluated throughout the study period, which may last up to 48 months.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of eloralintide, a drug given by injection, in adults who are obese or overweight but do not have type 2 diabetes. This Phase 3 study includes both a main phase and an extension phase to understand the drug's impact on body weight and overall health in this population. The study aims to compare eloralintide with a placebo to see how well it works in reducing weight. Participants will receive either eloralintide or a placebo, both administered under the skin once a week. The main study phase will last about 75 weeks, during which participants will be regularly monitored. Those participants who have prediabetes will have the option to continue into an extension phase lasting an additional 2 years to further assess long-term effects. During the study, participants will have their body weight measured at the start and throughout the trial, with the primary outcome being the percent change in body weight at week 64 compared to baseline. Researchers will also monitor safety and any side effects. Participants will be asked about their weight history and health conditions, and they must maintain stable body weight before joining. The total involvement time for most participants will be about 75 weeks, with longer follow-up for some.

This research aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of eloralintide in adults with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who are also obese or overweight. The study is organized under a master protocol called YDAO, which supports two separate studies: YSA1 for participants who are unable or unwilling to use Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy, and YSA2 for those who have been using PAP therapy for at least three months and intend to continue it during the study. This is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial focused on this specific population. Participants will receive either eloralintide or a placebo, both given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. They will be assigned to one of two groups based on their current PAP therapy use: those not using PAP (YSA1) and those continuing PAP (YSA2). The study treatment and observation will last about 76 weeks, allowing detailed evaluation over time. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including polysomnography to measure the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and body weight changes from baseline to week 64. Researchers will monitor weight, sleep apnea severity, and safety throughout the trial. The long participation period includes screening, treatment, and follow-up to capture comprehensive data on eloralintide’s effects and tolerability.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of the drug orforglipron compared with a placebo on cardiovascular outcomes in adults who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate major adverse cardiovascular events over a long period. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo orally. The study is event-driven and will continue until the occurrence of major cardiovascular events or up to about 5 years. The treatments are administered without revealing to participants which group they are in to ensure unbiased results. During the study, participants will be monitored for the time to the first occurrence of a major cardiovascular event. Researchers will collect data from baseline through the end of the study, which lasts approximately 5 years. Regular assessments will help evaluate the safety and effects of the treatments on cardiovascular health in this population.

This research aims to evaluate how well and how safely rimegepant works when taken during the peri-menstrual period to prevent menstrual migraine attacks in women with this condition. The study focuses on women aged 18 to 45 who have a history of menstrual migraines and regular menstrual cycles. It is a Phase 3 clinical trial comparing rimegepant to a placebo. Participants will receive either rimegepant 75 mg oral disintegrating tablets or matching placebo tablets for 7 days during the peri-menstrual period. In addition, they may use rimegepant or standard care medications as needed for acute migraine treatment. The study is double-blind and parallel group, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active drug or placebo during the treatment phase. During the study, researchers will monitor the average change from baseline in the number of migraine days occurring per 5-day peri-menstrual period over five menstrual cycles. Participants will be assessed regularly to track migraine frequency, safety, and medication use. The total study duration covers multiple menstrual cycles to observe effects over time and ensure participant safety.

Researchers are evaluating whether the medicine tenecteplase helps adults recover from an acute ischemic stroke when given more than 4.5 hours after they were last seen well. This study focuses on people who had a stroke caused by a clot blocking blood flow in the brain and who have imaging showing brain tissue that can still be saved. Participants should not be planning to receive a procedure to remove the clot and must have a pre-stroke disability level of 0 or 1 on the modified Rankin Scale. Participants are randomly placed into two groups. One group receives a single injection of tenecteplase into a vein, while the other group receives standard medical care. The study includes adults aged 18 and over who had an acute stroke or woke up with stroke symptoms more than 4.5 hours ago. Imaging with MRI or CT is used to confirm eligibility. The study lasts about three months, starting with a hospital stay of about one week. During the study, participants have seven clinical examinations or visits to monitor their recovery and health. The last two visits may be done from home to allow remote assessments. Researchers use the modified Rankin Scale to measure disability or dependence in daily activities at 90 days after treatment. They also monitor for any side effects or health changes to compare the effects of tenecteplase against standard care.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) in adults with established cardiovascular disease and elevated Lipoprotein(a) who have completed the parent trial CTQJ230A12301. The study is an open-label extension following the phase 3 parent study, providing participants continued access to pelacarsen after the initial trial. Participants will receive pelacarsen 80 mg by subcutaneous injection once a month during this open-label extension. The study is single-arm and multicenter, focusing on continued treatment with pelacarsen for up to 36 months after completion of the parent study. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess safety and tolerability, with particular attention to adverse events occurring up to 36 months. Researchers will collect data on health status throughout this period to understand the long-term effects of pelacarsen in this patient population.

Researchers are evaluating whether ziltivekimab can help people who were hospitalized due to a heart attack by potentially reducing the development of heart disease and preventing new heart attacks or strokes. This Phase 3 study compares ziltivekimab with a placebo, which is a dummy medicine that has no effect on the body. Both treatments are given by chance, with equal likelihood for participants to receive either ziltivekimab or placebo. Participants will inject the study medicine once a month under the skin in the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. Ziltivekimab is given as an initial loading dose followed by monthly maintenance doses. The placebo group receives a matching injection schedule. The study duration is about two years. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for the time until the first serious heart-related event, including cardiovascular death, non-fatal heart attack, or non-fatal stroke. Participants will be closely observed from the start of randomization up to 25 months. The study includes regular follow-ups to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatments throughout this period.
