Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of benralizumab, given as a subcutaneous injection, in children and adolescents aged 6 to under 18 years who have severe eosinophilic asthma. These patients have a history of asthma exacerbations and uncontrolled symptoms despite treatment with high-dose inhaled corticosteroids plus at least one other controller medication. This Phase III study aims to compare benralizumab to placebo in reducing the time to the first asthma exacerbation. The study includes a screening period lasting from 4 to 12 weeks to confirm eligibility. After screening, patients are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either benralizumab or placebo via subcutaneous injections during a double-blind treatment period lasting a minimum of 16 weeks. This period continues until the patient experiences an asthma exacerbation or a set number of events occur. Patients who exacerbate can enter an open-label extension where all receive benralizumab for at least 48 weeks. An end-of-treatment visit occurs 8 weeks after the last dose in the extension phase. Participants will be monitored through visits and assessments including confirmation of severe eosinophilic asthma, asthma control questionnaires, and symptom diaries. Researchers will measure the time to first asthma exacerbation as the primary outcome. Medication adherence is tracked during screening, and safety is monitored throughout both the double-blind and extension periods. Total participation may span over a year, considering screening, treatment, extension, and follow-up visits.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and activity of a new medicine called etavopivat in children aged 12 to 16 years with sickle cell disease who are at higher risk for stroke. The study focuses on how etavopivat affects blood flow velocity in brain arteries, measured by transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound. Participants are divided into two groups based on their TCD results and whether they are receiving hydroxyurea, a medication commonly used in sickle cell disease treatment. The study is a Phase 2, open-label trial aiming to better understand etavopivat’s effects in this pediatric population. Participants will take 400 mg of etavopivat daily, given as two 200 mg tablets by mouth, which can be taken with or without food. The treatment period lasts 52 weeks (one year). One group includes participants with conditional or abnormal TCD results who are not taking hydroxyurea, while the other includes those with similar TCD results who are on a stable dose of hydroxyurea. After the 52-week treatment, participants may have the option to join a 48-week extension phase to continue evaluating the safety of etavopivat. If appropriate, participants might also be offered to join a separate study to keep receiving etavopivat after completing these phases. Throughout the study, participants will visit the clinic regularly for assessments, including TCD ultrasound to measure blood flow velocities in specific brain arteries at baseline and week 12. Researchers will monitor safety and treatment effects closely. The primary outcome is the change in the highest blood flow velocity measured by TCD in any of the left or right internal carotid or middle cerebral arteries. Caregivers and participants will be involved in ongoing evaluations to ensure safety and adherence during the study's full duration and optional extension period.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of etavopivat, a new oral medicine being developed to treat inherited blood disorders such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia. These disorders affect hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen in the body. This phase 3 study aims to monitor how well etavopivat works and its safety profile over an extended period. Participants will receive one of three forms of etavopivat (A, B, or C) as oral doses. The study is open-label and multicenter, involving adults, adolescents, and children who have previously completed treatment in an etavopivat parent study and continue to benefit clinically. The treatment period can last up to 264 weeks but may end earlier if etavopivat is approved in the participant's country. During the study, researchers will track the number of treatment-emergent adverse events and adverse reactions for each participant by indication and age group from baseline through the end of the study, which can last up to 316 weeks. Participants' safety and response to long-term treatment will be closely monitored throughout this period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and immune response of BBV87, an inactivated Chikungunya virus vaccine, in healthy individuals aged 12 to 65 years. This seamless Phase II/III clinical trial aims to study the vaccine's immunogenicity, safety, and consistency across different production lots. The study involves approximately 1000 participants randomized regardless of their prior exposure to Chikungunya virus. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 3:3:3:1 ratio to receive one of three lots of the BBV87 vaccine or a placebo. Each participant will receive two doses of the vaccine or placebo, with each vaccine dose containing 40 micrograms of the inactivated virus. The study is observer-blind, and safety data will be reviewed by an independent board after Day 56 to ensure participant protection. During the study, participants will undergo assessments to measure antibody levels 28 days after the second vaccine dose. Researchers will monitor immune responses, including the percentage of participants who develop antibodies and the consistency of antibody levels across vaccine lots. Safety evaluations will be ongoing throughout the trial to assess any adverse effects or concerns related to the vaccine. The total participation period includes vaccination and follow-up visits up to Day 56.

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.

Researchers are studying how well and safely orforglipron works in adult women who have stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and are overweight or have obesity. SUI is a condition where urine leaks during movements like coughing or exercising. This trial is part of a master protocol including two independent studies, and it is a Phase 3 clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either orforglipron tablets or a placebo, both taken orally once daily. The treatment period and study participation will last approximately 58 weeks, including screening and safety follow-up. The study compares the effects of orforglipron against placebo in this specific group of female patients. During the study, researchers will track changes in the frequency of incontinence episodes from the start to week 52. Participants will undergo screening, treatment, and safety monitoring throughout the trial. The study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of orforglipron in reducing urinary leakage events over time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tirzepatide in adult participants in India who have either type 2 diabetes or who are obese or overweight without type 2 diabetes. This Phase 4, open-label study aims to better understand how this medication works in these populations over approximately 46 weeks. Participants will receive tirzepatide as an injection under the skin (subcutaneous administration) throughout the study period. The study includes adults with type 2 diabetes who have had the condition for at least one year and meet specific blood sugar and body mass index (BMI) criteria, as well as adults who are obese or overweight without type 2 diabetes but with certain related health conditions. This is a single-arm study, meaning all participants receive tirzepatide without comparison to another treatment. During the 46 weeks of participation, researchers will monitor participants for any serious side effects related to the medication and assess its overall safety. Participants will undergo regular evaluations including physical health assessments and laboratory tests to track the effects of tirzepatide. The primary outcome is to count the number of participants experiencing serious adverse events considered related to the study drug from the start through week 46.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of centhaquine citrate (LYFAQUIN193), a new drug designed to treat hypovolemic shock, which is a serious condition caused by severe blood or fluid loss. This phase IV, open-label, multi-center study involves adult patients aged 18 years or older who are experiencing hypovolemic shock with low blood pressure and elevated blood lactate levels. Centhaquine has shown promising results in animal models by improving blood pressure, cardiac output, and reducing mortality through its action on specific adrenergic receptors. Participants will receive centhaquine alongside standard shock treatments such as fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, and endotracheal intubation. The drug will be given intravenously at a dose of 0.01 mg/kg in 100 mL of normal saline over one hour. If blood pressure remains low, an additional dose may be given after 4 hours, with a maximum of three doses within 24 hours. Centhaquine administration can continue for up to two days after enrollment, with close monitoring throughout their hospital stay. During the study, patients will be monitored until discharge or for up to seven days from enrollment. Researchers will assess safety by tracking adverse and serious adverse events, as well as efficacy by measuring blood pressure, lactate levels, base deficit, and survival rates. Statistical analyses will compare patient outcomes, and the results will be presented with detailed data summaries to evaluate the drug's safety and benefits when added to standard care for hypovolemic shock.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of brenipatide at different doses compared with a placebo in adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma. This Phase 2 study focuses on participants who have a history of asthma requiring controller medication and recent severe asthma exacerbations. The goal is to better understand how brenipatide impacts asthma control over an extended period. Participants will receive either brenipatide or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection. The study includes a 52-week treatment period during which the effects of the drug on asthma exacerbations and symptoms will be monitored. This randomized, double-blind approach helps compare the responses between the treatment and placebo groups. Study involvement lasts about 65 weeks, covering screening, treatment, and follow-up phases. During the study, researchers will assess participants' asthma control using questionnaires and track the annual rate of asthma exacerbations. Safety and treatment responses will be closely monitored throughout the trial to evaluate the drug's impact and participant well-being.
