Researchers are evaluating IMVT-1402 in a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b study for adults with Graves disease GD who remain hyperthyroid despite antithyroid drug ATD treatment. The study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of IMVT-1402 in this population. Participants will receive one of two doses of IMVT-1402 or a placebo for 26 weeks. The study includes two experimental groups with different doses of IMVT-1402 and a placebo comparator group. Treatments are given over the same 26-week period to evaluate their effects. During the study, participants will be monitored to see if they become euthyroid and are able to stop ATD by Week 26. Researchers will measure thyroid hormone levels such as triiodothyronine T3 and free thyroxine FT4 at various time points, including Weeks 2, 4, and 26. Safety and tolerability will also be assessed throughout the trial, which is expected to complete in May 2027.

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.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of NBI-1065845 as an additional treatment for adults with Major Depressive Disorder MDD. This Phase 3, open-label study focuses on participants who have a primary diagnosis of recurrent moderate or severe MDD or persistent depressive disorder and have had an inadequate response to oral antidepressant treatments in their current depressive episode. Participants will receive NBI-1065845 tablets taken orally once daily as an adjunctive therapy alongside their ongoing antidepressant treatments. The study is designed as a single-group, open-label trial without placebo or comparison groups. The treatment period and follow-up extend over 52 weeks, during which safety and tolerability will be closely monitored. Throughout the study, participants will be assessed for treatment-emergent adverse events TEAEs from baseline through Week 52. Participants must be willing and able to comply with all study procedures and restrictions, including regular visits and evaluations determined by the investigators. The overall study duration allows for comprehensive monitoring of safety outcomes and participant well-being.

Researchers are studying the effects of NBI-1065845 compared with a placebo as an additional treatment for adults with Major Depressive Disorder MDD. This trial focuses on improving symptoms of depression in participants who have not responded well to standard oral antidepressant treatments during their current episode. The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial primarily evaluating treatment outcomes in this population. Participants will receive either NBI-1065845 tablets or placebo tablets that look identical. Both treatments are taken orally once a day alongside their current oral antidepressants, which participants must continue at the same dose and frequency throughout the study. The main treatment period lasts 56 days, during which researchers will monitor changes in depression symptoms and disability. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including the Montgomery-sberg Depression Rating Scale MADRS, Sheehan Disability Scale SDS, and Clinical Global Impression-Severity Scale CGI-S at the start and end of the 56-day period. Researchers will evaluate changes in these scores to measure symptom improvement. The trial includes close monitoring to ensure participant safety and adherence, with total participation lasting about two months.

Researchers are examining the effect of abelacimab compared to a placebo in patients with atrial fibrillation AF who are considered unsuitable for oral anticoagulation therapy. This Phase 3 study focuses on high-risk patients with AF to evaluate whether abelacimab can reduce the occurrence of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism. The study is led by Anthos Therapeutics, Inc. and aims to address treatment options in patients where traditional anticoagulation is deemed inappropriate. Participants are randomly assigned in equal numbers to receive either abelacimab 150 mg or a matching placebo by subcutaneous injection once a month. The study consists of three periods a screening period lasting up to 60 days, a double-blind treatment period that continues until at least 111 patients experience a primary endpoint event, and an end-of-treatment visit. Following this, participants may enter a 30-day follow-up or an optional open-label extension to receive abelacimab, depending on eligibility and regulatory approval. During the study, participants undergo assessments to monitor stroke, systemic embolism, and bleeding events, with the primary outcomes measured up to 30 months. Safety is tracked by recording bleeding events classified by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium. Secondary outcomes include cardiovascular and all-cause mortality and other thrombotic events. The study also involves regular monitoring and follow-up visits to assess efficacy and safety throughout the treatment and observation periods.
