Researchers are evaluating treatments for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma in patients who cannot undergo autologous stem cell transplantation. This Phase 3 study compares two drug combinations belantamab mafodotin with lenalidomide and dexamethasone BRd versus daratumumab with lenalidomide and dexamethasone DRd. The goal is to see if BRd extends progression-free survival and improves minimal residual disease negative status compared to DRd. Participants receive either BRd or DRd treatment, continuing until disease progression, death, unacceptable side effects, withdrawal, or study end. Both treatment arms involve the administration of lenalidomide and dexamethasone alongside either belantamab mafodotin or daratumumab. Treatment duration may last up to approximately seven years. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including monitoring disease progression, response to treatment, and side effects. Measurements include progression-free survival, overall survival, and the number achieving minimal residual disease negative status. Quality of life questionnaires and blood tests will also be conducted. Safety monitoring includes eye exams and tracking adverse events throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating Dostarlimab compared to a placebo in adults with locally advanced unresected Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma HNSCC. This phase 3 trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of Dostarlimab as a sequential therapy following chemoradiation treatment in participants with this type of cancer. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either Dostarlimab or a placebo, both given as intravenous infusions. The study is double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment is being given. The treatments follow completion of chemoradiation with cisplatin and radiotherapy intended to cure the cancer. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to approximately 5 years. Researchers will evaluate event-free survival and overall survival, with safety assessments including treatment-emergent adverse events and laboratory tests. Blood samples will be taken to measure drug levels and immune responses. This long-term follow-up will help understand the effects and safety of Dostarlimab after chemoradiation therapy.

This research aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belantamab mafodotin given with standard cancer treatments in adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer that has returned or is not responding to prior treatments. The study focuses on whether giving belantamab mafodotin less frequently can still control the cancer while reducing side effects, especially those affecting the eyes. It is a phase 2, open-label study sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline. Participants will receive belantamab mafodotin combined with one of three standard treatment regimens pomalidomide and dexamethasone bortezomib and dexamethasone or carfilzomib and dexamethasone. The study uses an extended dosing schedule to assess if less frequent dosing maintains effectiveness. The treatment continues as per the assigned combination, with no randomization, in multiple centers. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for response to treatment, including overall response rate and complete response rate, up to about 52 months. Safety will be monitored by recording side effects and eye health through ophthalmic exams. Participants will undergo laboratory tests and clinical evaluations throughout the study. The research will also track how well patient-reported eye symptoms match clinical findings, with the total study duration extending up to approximately four years.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of sefaxersen RO7434656, a new Antisense Oligonucleotide ASO therapy, in adults with primary IgA nephropathy IgAN who are at high risk of worsening kidney disease despite receiving optimized supportive care. This phase III study focuses on participants who continue to face disease progression despite standard treatments. Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of either sefaxersen or a matching placebo. The dosing schedule includes injections on Days 1, 15, and 29, followed by doses once every four weeks until Week 105. After Week 105 or the primary data cut-off, eligible participants may switch to open-label sefaxersen treatment at the investigators discretion. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments to measure changes in urine protein-to-creatinine ratio at Week 37, kidney function eGFR slope at Week 105, and monitor for hematuria resolution, kidney failure events, fatigue, and treatment-emergent adverse events. Blood samples will be collected to measure plasma sefaxersen levels. The total study duration extends up to approximately 36 months, with ongoing safety and efficacy monitoring.

Researchers are evaluating how well mocertatug rezetecan Mo-Rez works compared to standard chemotherapy treatments in women with endometrial cancer who have previously received platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy. This Phase 3 study also examines the safety and tolerability of Mo-Rez and aims to better understand the main side effects of the drugs. The trial is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and involves adult female participants. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one group receives mocertatug rezetecan, and the other receives standard of care chemotherapy with either paclitaxel or doxorubicin, depending on the investigators choice. The study follows a parallel design with single masking. Treatments are given according to the study protocol, and the trial includes up to approximately 97 weeks of follow-up for primary outcomes and up to 156 weeks for secondary outcomes. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including scans reviewed by blinded independent central reviewers, quality of life questionnaires, and monitoring for adverse events through laboratory tests, vital signs, and ECGs. Researchers will measure objective response rates, progression-free survival, overall survival, and other treatment outcomes. The study tracks safety events, antibody responses to Mo-Rez, and changes in participants quality of life over time. Participation may last several years, with ongoing evaluations to monitor health and treatment effects.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and clinical effects of Awiqli Insulin Icodec in people with diabetes mellitus in Japan through a non-interventional observational study. The study focuses on real-world use of Awiqli prescribed by doctors as part of routine clinical care, with no restrictions on diabetes type or prior treatments. This research aims to gather information about adverse reactions and clinical outcomes over a one-year period. Participants will receive commercially available Awiqli once weekly, with treatment decisions made by their doctors following normal clinical practice. The study does not assign treatment but observes patients using Awiqli as prescribed. Data will be collected throughout the 52-week period to monitor safety and clinical parameters under real-world conditions. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse reactions, serious adverse events, and changes in blood sugar control, including glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose. Quality of life related to diabetes therapy will also be assessed. The study involves regular data collection over approximately one year, and participants continue with their usual care while contributing information to the study.

Researchers are conducting a survey to study patients who have received Ondexxya Intravenous Injection 200 mg to neutralize the anticoagulant effects of Factor Xa inhibitors during life-threatening or unarrestable bleeding episodes. This observational study aims to monitor safety specifications such as thrombotic events, infusion reactions, and re-bleeding, while also understanding the drugs safety and effectiveness under real-world use. The survey collects information about the occurrence of unknown adverse drug reactions, the incidence of adverse reactions during routine use, and factors that might influence the drugs safety or effectiveness. There are no specific treatments or interventions administered as part of the study since it observes patients receiving routine care with Ondexxya. Participants will be monitored for 30 days to document adverse drug reactions and safety-related events, including how patient background factors may affect outcomes. Data collection involves safety and effectiveness information gathered during this period, with no additional procedures or visits beyond standard clinical care. The study is sponsored by AstraZeneca and will continue until October 2026.
