Researchers are conducting a Phase I open-label study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and optimal biological dose of AUR107 in adults with relapsed advanced malignancies. The study focuses on patients with selected advanced solid tumors, such as non-small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer, urothelial cancer, kidney cancer, colon cancer, and esophageal cancer, who have no curative or life-prolonging treatment options left. This first-in-human trial aims to find the best dose of AUR107 using a traditional dose-escalation design. Participants will receive oral AUR107 once daily at escalating doses ranging from 5 mg to 200 mg. The trial follows a 33 dose escalation design to evaluate safety and determine the optimal biological dose based on safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics data. The study is multicenter and includes dose expansion following dose escalation. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for dose-limiting toxicities and treatment-related adverse events over 28-day cycles. Researchers will measure pharmacokinetic parameters such as maximum concentration, time to maximum concentration, area under the curve, mean residence time, and elimination half-life at various time points under fasting and fed conditions. Safety assessments and clinical evaluations will be conducted throughout the study, which is expected to continue until June 2027.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of brenipatide combined with standard of care compared to placebo plus standard of care in delaying the worsening of symptoms in adults with bipolar disorder.

Researchers are evaluating the combined use of vicadrostat and empagliflozin in adults with chronic heart failure who have a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction LVEF below 40%. Participants must have had chronic heart failure diagnosed at least three months before starting the study. The trial aims to find out if this combination helps people with symptomatic heart failure classified as New York Heart Association classes II to IV. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups, with an equal chance of receiving either vicadrostat plus empagliflozin tablets or placebo plus empagliflozin tablets. The study medicines are taken once daily for approximately six months up to about 3.5 years. During this time, participants may continue their usual heart failure treatments, excluding certain medications. The trial includes a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor study staff know who receives the active drug or placebo. Throughout the study, participants visit the study site regularly, with the number of visits depending on how long they stay enrolled. Some visits may occur by phone. They answer questions about their well-being, and doctors monitor health status, record any heart failure worsening, hospitalizations, or deaths. The main outcome is the time until cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or urgent heart failure visit, which is compared between groups. Safety and side effects are also closely followed during the trial.

The study carefully tracks safety and treatment tolerance while gathering information to determine if the combined treatment helps people with heart failure.

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.

Neonatal encephalopathy causes a high number of infant deaths and lifelong disabilities in low and middle-income countries. Unlike high-income countries where cooling therapy is used in intensive care, such treatment is rarely available in these regions due to resource limitations and safety concerns. Erythropoietin, a drug with neuroprotective and regenerative properties, has shown promise as a single therapy for newborns with this condition in smaller studies, supporting the need for a larger trial to evaluate its safety and effectiveness. This trial evaluates erythropoietin monotherapy compared with a placebo injection in newborns with moderate or severe neonatal encephalopathy in low and middle-income countries. Babies will receive intravenous or subcutaneous erythropoietin at a dose of 500 units per kilogram, starting within 6 hours of birth and continuing daily for a total of 9 doses over 8 days. The control group will receive mock injections. The trial includes monitoring and maintaining normal body temperature and uses brain imaging techniques between 1 to 2 weeks of age. Participants will be followed for 18 months after treatment to assess survival and disability outcomes. Researchers will collect data through clinical exams, brain scans, and hospital records to monitor neurological development, safety, and adverse events. The primary outcome is the number of babies who die or survive with moderate or severe disability by 18 to 22 months. The study includes an initial pilot phase and plans for data analysis after follow-up completion.
