This research aims to provide continued access to niraparib and to further assess its long-term safety in participants with ovarian or breast neoplasms who are currently receiving niraparib treatment within previous GlaxoSmithKlineTESARO-sponsored studies. It focuses on participants who have completed earlier studies where the primary objectives were met and are judged by their doctors to still benefit from niraparib. The study is a phase 2, open-label extension trial designed to monitor treatment continuation and safety over time. Participants will receive niraparib once daily by mouth, following the same dose and schedule as in their previous parent study. Treatment is organized in 90-day cycles and will continue until disease progression, unacceptable side effects, new anticancer therapy unrelated to the parent study, withdrawal, or other reasons for discontinuation occur. The dosing regimen mirrors what was assigned in the prior study, ensuring consistency for each participant. During the study, participants will have regular evaluations to monitor safety and health status for up to five years. These assessments include tracking adverse events, serious side effects, and specific safety concerns, as well as monitoring physical exams, vital signs, blood tests, and medication use. Participants must comply with scheduled visits and treatments while using effective contraception if of childbearing potential. The study duration and follow-up are designed to gather detailed long-term safety information on niraparib treatment.

Researchers are evaluating HLX22 combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the gastric or gastroesophageal junction. This phase 3, randomized, double-blind study compares this combination against trastuzumab plus chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab. The trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of adding HLX22 in this patient population. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 11 ratio to either the experimental group receiving HLX22 15 mgkg plus trastuzumab and chemotherapy XELOX with or without a placebo for pembrolizumab every three weeks, or the control group receiving placebo for HLX22 plus trastuzumab and chemotherapy XELOX with or without pembrolizumab also every three weeks. Treatment continues until clinical benefit is lost, intolerable side effects occur, death, withdrawal, or other protocol-specified reasons. Throughout the study, participants will have their disease progression monitored by an independent radiology review committee using RECIST v1.1 criteria for up to five years, along with overall survival and response rates. Safety will be regularly assessed by tracking adverse events. The study includes multiple assessments to evaluate treatment effects, and participants will be followed for long-term outcomes during the trial period.

Researchers are conducting a large prospective, observational cohort study to evaluate the clinical impact of new Monoclonal Antibodies MAB in patients with B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma NHL treated in Italian clinical practice. The study focuses on collecting information about the use, feasibility, effectiveness, and both short- and long-term side effects of novel MABs that have been approved by the European Medicines Agency since 2020 and prescribed according to authorized indications in Italy. Participants will be divided into groups based on treatment indication, antibody type, and lymphoma subtype to allow detailed analysis. The study observes patients with B-cell NHL who have received at least one dose of a novel MAB either alone or in combination, as authorized for use in Italy. Both patients receiving first-line treatment and those with relapsed or refractory disease are included. Various cohorts and sub-cohorts will be analyzed to understand outcomes by indication, antibody type, and histological subtype, providing a comprehensive overview of these treatments in real-life settings. Participants will be followed for at least five years to assess outcomes such as overall response rate, complete response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, event-free survival, time to next treatment, non-relapse mortality, duration of response, and the incidence of early and late adverse events. Clinical data collection will include treatment details, safety monitoring, and long-term follow-up to evaluate both effectiveness and toxicity. The study spans several years, allowing researchers to capture extensive real-world evidence on novel MAB use in B-cell NHL.

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 evaluating elacestrant compared to standard endocrine therapies in adults with node-positive, Estrogen Receptor-positive ER, HER2-negative early breast cancer who are at high risk of cancer returning. The study focuses on those who have had prior endocrine therapy and aims to measure how well elacestrant may prevent invasive breast cancer recurrence over five years. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either 345 mg of elacestrant daily for five years or continue their prior standard endocrine therapy, which may include an aromatase inhibitor anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane or tamoxifen. The trial is open-label, meaning both participants and researchers know which treatment is given. During the study, participants will have regular assessments to monitor cancer recurrence, survival, side effects, and quality of life. Evaluations include questionnaires on health status and physical functioning at baseline, six months, and annually for up to five years. Safety is tracked through adverse event reporting up to five years plus 28 days. The total participation duration can last up to five years with ongoing monitoring and data collection.

Researchers are evaluating zipalertinib, an oral drug, for safety, effectiveness, and how it behaves in the body pharmacokinetics in adults with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that has specific mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR, including exon 20 insertions and other uncommon mutations. This Phase 2b trial also studies how zipalertinib interacts with other drugs affecting liver enzymes and transporters and aims to find the best dose for treatment. Participants join one of four main groups based on their treatment history and mutation type those previously treated for exon 20 insertion mutations, those who are untreated but not candidates for standard chemotherapy, those with active brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease, and those with other uncommon EGFR mutations without prior systemic therapy. Two additional substudies focus on drug interactions using enzyme and transporter probe cocktails, and dose optimization with participants randomly assigned to two dosing arms. Zipalertinib is taken orally twice daily continuously until disease progression or other reasons to stop. During the study, participants undergo regular evaluations including scans to measure tumor response, brain imaging if applicable, laboratory tests, heart function monitoring, and assessments of side effects. Researchers track how long participants respond to treatment, disease control, survival, and changes in heart electrical activity. Safety and drug concentration in blood are closely monitored. Participants may remain in the study for up to approximately two years to assess these outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating zolbetuximab combined with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in adults with stomach or gastroesophageal junction GEJ cancer. This study focuses on cancers that do not have the HER2 protein but do express Claudin 18.2. The goal is to understand how well zolbetuximab works with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy compared to a placebo with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in people with advanced or metastatic disease that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zolbetuximab or a placebo, both given via intravenous infusion every 2 or 3 weeks, alongside pembrolizumab infusions every 3 or 6 weeks. Chemotherapy will be administered using one of two regimens, CAPOX or modified FOLFOX6, over multiple cycles lasting about 42 days each. Treatment continues until the cancer worsens, side effects prevent further use, or another therapy is needed. Pembrolizumab may be given for up to 2 years. During the study, participants will visit the clinic for infusions and health monitoring, including scans to check cancer status. Medical problems and treatment side effects will be recorded. After treatment ends, participants will continue to have regular health checks and scans every 9 to 12 weeks, along with phone check-ins every 3 months. The study will measure overall survival, disease progression, response rates, and safety over several years, with up to 72 months of follow-up for some outcomes.

Non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC is a disease where cancer cells grow uncontrollably in lung tissues. This trial aims to compare the investigational drug telisotuzumab vedotin with docetaxel to see which works better and to assess the safety of telisotuzumab vedotin in adults with previously treated NSCLC that overexpresses the c-Met protein. The study is a Phase 3 global trial involving about 768 participants at around 330 sites. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either telisotuzumab vedotin by intravenous infusion every 2 weeks or docetaxel by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. Treatment continues until specific criteria for stopping the study drug are met. After the study concludes, those who benefit may have access to continued treatment through extensions or rollover studies. During the trial, participants will attend regular visits at hospitals or clinics for medical assessments, blood tests, and side effect monitoring. Questionnaires will be completed to assess physical functioning and quality of life. Researchers will measure outcomes like progression-free survival and overall survival over up to about 39 months, with some secondary outcomes assessed up to approximately 58 months.

Researchers are evaluating MB12, a proposed pembrolizumab biosimilar, compared to Keytruda in combination with pemetrexed-platinum chemotherapy as the first treatment for patients with advanced metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC. This randomized, double-blind, multicenter study aims to compare the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, and immune response of MB12 and Keytruda in this patient population. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups MB12 with pemetrexed and carboplatin or cisplatin, European Union-sourced Keytruda with the same chemotherapy, or US-sourced Keytruda with the same chemotherapy. MB12 and Keytruda are given intravenously at 200mg every three weeks on Day 1. Pemetrexed is given at 500 mgm2 IV every three weeks on Day 1, while carboplatin or cisplatin is administered every three weeks for four cycles. During the study, participants will be monitored from Week 1 to Week 52 for drug levels in the body, treatment effectiveness, safety, and immune response. Key assessments include measuring pharmacokinetic bioequivalence and efficacy equivalence within the first 24 weeks, along with longer-term safety and immune monitoring. The study is led by mAbxience Research S.L. and is expected to continue until September 2027.

Researchers are conducting a Phase III, randomized, open-label multicenter study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of giredestrant compared with fulvestrant. Both drugs are combined with the investigators choice of a CDK46 inhibitor palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib in participants with estrogen receptor-positive ER, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer who have become resistant to prior adjuvant endocrine therapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one group will receive giredestrant 30 mg orally daily on Days 1-28 of each 28-day cycle, while the other will receive fulvestrant 500 mg intramuscularly on Days 1 and 15 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of subsequent 28-day cycles. Both groups will also receive a CDK46 inhibitor chosen by the investigator, with dosing schedules depending on the specific inhibitor selected. Preperimenopausal women and men will receive a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone LHRH agonist during treatment. Participants will be assessed for progression-free survival over up to 5 years, with additional measures including overall survival, response rates, duration of response, clinical benefit, and quality of life. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting, vital signs, and laboratory tests during treatment and up to 28 days after the last dose. The study is led by Hoffmann-La Roche and aims to provide detailed information on the treatments effects in this patient population.
