Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of a combination treatment including adagrasib, pembrolizumab, and platinum-doublet chemotherapy compared to a placebo combined with pembrolizumab and platinum-doublet chemotherapy. This study focuses on adults with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a KRAS G12C mutation. The trial is a randomized, double-blind, phase 3 study designed to provide insights into treatment options for this specific lung cancer type. Participants receive either adagrasib plus pembrolizumab alongside platinum-doublet chemotherapy drugs such as carboplatin or cisplatin and pemetrexed, or they receive a placebo plus pembrolizumab and the same chemotherapy regimen. The dosages and schedules of these drugs are specified and administered on predetermined days. The trial compares these two treatment groups to understand better the impact of adding adagrasib to the existing pembrolizumab and chemotherapy treatment. Throughout the study, participants are closely monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival, assessed up to seven years using standardized criteria for tumor response. Regular imaging scans such as CT or MRI are used to measure disease status. Safety and tolerability are also evaluated during the study, with ongoing assessments to track adverse effects and treatment response. The total duration of follow-up allows for long-term observation of treatment outcomes and participant health.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of opevesostat combined with hormone replacement therapy compared to alternative treatments with abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have already been treated with one next-generation hormonal agent. This Phase 3 study aims to determine whether opevesostat improves radiographic progression-free survival, assessed by independent central review, in participants with or without androgen receptor ligand binding domain mutations. Participants will receive either oral opevesostat along with hormone replacement therapy drugs such as dexamethasone and fludrocortisone acetate, or they will receive alternative oral treatments including abiraterone acetate with prednisone acetate or enzalutamide. Hydrocortisone can be used as a rescue drug if needed. The study is open-label and randomized, comparing these treatment strategies in participants who have progressed after prior hormonal therapy. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including imaging scans to monitor disease progression. Researchers will measure radiographic progression-free survival up to approximately 52 months. Safety and overall survival are also monitored as secondary outcomes. Participants must attend scheduled visits for evaluations, provide tumor tissue samples, and have ongoing monitoring of organ function, hormone levels, and other relevant health parameters throughout the study period.

Researchers are studying the effects of DMX-200 (repagermanium), a drug that blocks a receptor involved in inflammation, in people with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) who are also taking an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). This Phase 3 trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of DMX-200 compared to placebo over 104 weeks in adults and adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. Following the initial study, an open-label extension will evaluate long-term safety and benefits for up to two more years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either DMX-200 at 120 mg twice daily or a placebo, while continuing their ARB treatment. The study includes a screening and qualification period lasting 6 to 14 weeks, a 104-week double-blind treatment phase, and a 4-week follow-up after treatment. Those completing this phase may enter the open-label extension for an additional minimum of 104 weeks, with another 4-week follow-up period, making the total study duration about 230 weeks. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including urine protein and creatinine testing, kidney function monitoring by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and safety evaluations. The main outcomes measured are changes in proteinuria, kidney function slope up to week 104, and long-term safety through week 216. Safety will be closely monitored throughout both the double-blind and extension periods to understand the drug's effects over time.

Researchers are evaluating how well vortioxetine tablets at doses of 10 mg/day or 20 mg/day work compared to placebo tablets for treating depression symptoms in Japanese teenagers aged 12 to 17 years who have been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). This phase 3 clinical trial aims to assess the drug's effectiveness, safety, and how the body processes the medication in this pediatric population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either vortioxetine or a placebo once daily for 14 weeks. The study includes an initial screening period of up to 15 days to determine eligibility, followed by the 14-week treatment phase. After completing treatment, there is a 4-week period dedicated to monitoring any side effects. Throughout the study, participants will visit the clinic 13 times for assessments and medication administration. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations including the Children Depression Rating Scale Revised version (CDRS-R) to measure changes in depression symptoms from baseline to week 14. Other assessments include safety monitoring and pharmacokinetics. Researchers will also collect information on side effects during and after treatment. The total time commitment for participants is about 20 weeks, including screening, treatment, and follow-up periods.

This trial studies participants with relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer who have received prior treatment. It aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of a new drug called ZL-1310 with therapies chosen by investigators, such as Topotecan, Lurbinectedin, or Amrubicin. This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label study evaluating outcomes including tumor response rate and overall survival over a period of up to 27 months. Participants receive either ZL-1310 alone or one of the Investigator's Choice therapies as treatment. The study includes screening to confirm measurable disease and eligibility. Treatments are administered according to the study protocol, and tumor biopsies or archived tissue samples are collected at screening. Both treatment groups are monitored for response and side effects throughout the study period. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments including tumor imaging evaluated by an independent review, and survival status is tracked for up to 27 months. Researchers monitor safety, treatment adherence, and disease progression. Participants are expected to comply with study visits and procedures for the entire duration of the trial to help evaluate the benefits and risks of the treatments.

Researchers are evaluating the pharmacokinetic (PK) comparability between TAK-881 and HYQVIA, both given as subcutaneous (SC) infusions, for maintenance treatment of adults with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). This Phase 3 trial includes participants who have previously received intravenous or subcutaneous immunoglobulin G treatments and aims to compare these two therapies' behavior in the body. Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of CIDP and have responded to IgG treatment before, consistent with established diagnostic criteria. The study consists of multiple phases: screening, a ramp-up phase if needed, a HYQVIA treatment phase, a TAK-881 treatment phase, and finally, an extension phase. Participants who previously received conventional subcutaneous or intravenous immunoglobulin will start with a HYQVIA ramp-up phase 1 to 2 weeks after their last dose. Those already on HYQVIA proceed straight to treatment. Participants receive SC infusions of HYQVIA for 20 weeks, then switch to TAK-881 for 24 weeks. During the extension phase, home infusions are preferred, with clinic visits spaced between 12 and 24 weeks. Throughout the study, participants visit the clinic every 3 or 4 weeks during the initial phases. Researchers will monitor immunoglobulin G levels through blood tests at specified intervals to assess drug exposure. Safety and treatment adherence are tracked, and participants complete disability assessments. The total duration includes these treatment phases and the extension, with careful follow-up to evaluate the therapies' pharmacokinetic profiles and participant well-being.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a new combination treatment using BMS-986489 (a fixed dose combination of BMS-986012 and Nivolumab) alongside Carboplatin and Etoposide compared to the current standard treatment with Atezolizumab plus Carboplatin and Etoposide. This study focuses on adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer and is conducted as a phase 3 randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial. The goal is to find out which combination works better as a first-line therapy for this advanced lung cancer. Participants will receive either BMS-986489 combined with Carboplatin and Etoposide or Atezolizumab combined with Carboplatin and Etoposide. Each drug will be given at specified doses on certain days according to the study protocol. The study compares these two treatment approaches to see their effects and safety when used as initial therapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. During the study, participants will be closely monitored over a period of up to 5 years to assess overall survival. Researchers will use imaging techniques like CT scans or MRIs to measure tumor response and will evaluate participants' health and ability to perform normal activities. Safety and side effects will also be tracked throughout the study to ensure participant well-being.

Researchers are comparing the effectiveness of two treatments for participants with stage IV or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have PD-L1 expression of 1% or higher. This phase 3, randomized, open-label study focuses on first-line treatment options and aims to evaluate overall survival over up to five years for participants with PD-L1 levels between 1% and 49%. The trial involves participants with measurable disease and good performance status who have not received prior systemic therapy for advanced disease. The study compares a combination of Nivolumab and Relatlimab plus chemotherapy against Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs include Carboplatin, Pemetrexed, and Cisplatin, administered at specified doses on scheduled days. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the Nivolumab and Relatlimab combination with chemotherapy or Pembrolizumab with chemotherapy as their initial treatment. Treatment schedules and doses are defined but not detailed here. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study, which may last up to five years. Researchers will assess overall survival as the primary outcome, along with regular imaging tests like CT or MRI to measure disease status. Eligibility screening includes assessing PD-L1 levels, performance status, and other health factors. Safety monitoring and follow-up will continue to evaluate treatment effects and participant well-being during and after treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of felzartamab in adults with Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), a kidney disease caused by the buildup of abnormal IgA antibodies in the kidneys. This buildup leads to inflammation and damage, causing protein to appear in the urine. The study aims to understand how felzartamab influences proteinuria and kidney function, while also assessing the safety and how the body processes this treatment. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focusing on adults with IgAN. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either felzartamab or a placebo through intravenous (IV) infusions. Neither the participants nor the researchers will know which treatment is given. The treatment period lasts 24 weeks followed by an 80-week follow-up period. In total, participants will attend 17 study visits over about 2 years to receive infusions and participate in study activities. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including urine tests to measure protein levels, kidney function evaluations, and safety monitoring. Researchers will track changes in proteinuria from the start of the study to Week 36 as the main outcome. Additional measurements will include kidney function, clinical endpoints, and the study of how felzartamab is processed by the body. Participant safety and long-term effects will be monitored throughout the study and follow-up periods.

This study will find out if a new medicine called NNC6019-0001 can help reduce the risk of heart-related death and illness in participants with a condition called transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), which affects the heart. Participants will either receive NNC6019-0001 or a placebo (a treatment with no active medicine), and which one they get is decided by chance. Everyone in the study will continue receiving their usual heart treatments as recommended by their doctor.
