Researchers are studying whether combining calderasib, a targeted therapy for the KRAS G12C mutation, with subcutaneous pembrolizumab can treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aims to determine if people receiving calderasib with pembrolizumab live longer without their cancer growing or spreading compared to those receiving pembrolizumab with chemotherapy. This is a phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial focusing on participants with advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC carrying the KRAS G12C mutation. Participants will receive one of two treatment combinations. One group will take calderasib orally along with subcutaneous pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa injections. The other group will receive subcutaneous pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy drugs pemetrexed and a platinum-based drug, either carboplatin or cisplatin, administered by intravenous infusion. These treatments are given as first-line therapy, and the study evaluates their safety and effectiveness. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for progression-free survival, especially focusing on those with at least 1% PD-L1 tumor proportion score, for up to approximately 48 months. Participants will undergo regular assessments to track cancer progression and response to treatment. Safety and efficacy data will be collected throughout the study to understand how well the treatments work and their side effects over time.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study to see if it can reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-PLUS) in adults with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study compares AZD0780 to a placebo and monitors participants from randomization until the primary analysis censoring date, followed by a final study closure visit. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 or an oral placebo once daily. The treatment period lasts until the primary analysis censoring date, after which a study closure visit will occur. The study is event-driven and designed to assess the time to the first major cardiovascular event during treatment. During the study, participants will be closely monitored with various assessments to evaluate cardiovascular outcomes and safety over approximately 54 months. Researchers will track the time to first event of any component of MACE-PLUS and collect data to assess the effect of AZD0780 compared to placebo. The study includes regular visits and evaluations to ensure participant safety and adherence to treatment.

Researchers are evaluating how well oral icotrokinra works, its safety, and how well patients tolerate it in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic condition where the colon lining becomes inflamed and develops ulcers. This is a Phase 3 study aimed at finding effective treatments for this condition using a rigorous comparison. Participants will receive either icotrokinra tablets or placebo tablets taken by mouth. The study includes an induction phase and a maintenance phase, with adults participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, while adolescents join an open-label maintenance study. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor clinical remission rates at 12 weeks during induction and at 40 weeks during maintenance. Participants will undergo assessments including endoscopic evaluations and pregnancy tests for females of childbearing potential. Safety and tolerability will be closely observed, with the total study duration covering both induction and maintenance periods.

Researchers are investigating whether ziltivekimab can treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. The study compares ziltivekimab, a new medicine not yet approved anywhere, to a placebo, an inactive substance that looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. Participants have an equal chance of receiving either treatment. The study is expected to last up to one year and four months and focuses on people with heart failure who also have systemic inflammation. Participants will receive either ziltivekimab or placebo by monthly injections under the skin. The doses are given once a month throughout the study period. The study lasts for 12 months of treatment following randomization, during which the effects of the medicine compared to placebo will be closely monitored. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including a heart failure questionnaire called the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) to measure symptoms and physical function over the 12 months. Other evaluations may include walking tests and heart function tests. Safety and health will be monitored regularly to understand how participants respond to the treatments and to track any side effects or changes in heart failure symptoms.

Researchers are evaluating ziltivekimab as a treatment for people living with heart failure and inflammation. This Phase 3 study compares ziltivekimab to a placebo in participants with heart failure who have mild to preserved ejection fraction and systemic inflammation. The study aims to assess the effect of ziltivekimab on cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or urgent heart failure visits over a period of up to 4 years. Participants will receive monthly injections of either ziltivekimab or a placebo using a pre-filled syringe or a pen-injector. The study medication is administered subcutaneously once a month for up to 4 years. The trial includes up to 20 clinic visits during which participants will be monitored and assessed. During the study, participants will use a study app on their phone to record all injections and complete questionnaires. Researchers will monitor participants for key outcomes like cardiovascular events and heart failure episodes from the time of randomization until the end of the study. Safety and health status will be regularly evaluated throughout the study period, which may last up to 48 months.

Researchers are conducting a Phase 3 study to compare two front-line treatments for adults with nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is stage IV or advanced stage IIIB/C. The study focuses on patients whose tumors have a KRAS p.G12C mutation and are negative for PD-L1 expression. The main goal is to evaluate how each treatment affects progression-free survival and overall survival over about 2.5 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either sotorasib combined with platinum doublet chemotherapy or pembrolizumab combined with platinum doublet chemotherapy. Sotorasib is given orally, while pembrolizumab is given intravenously. Both groups will receive the combination therapies as their initial treatment for advanced NSCLC. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess treatment effects and safety. Researchers will track how long patients live without the cancer worsening and overall survival over approximately 2.5 years. The study includes evaluations to determine eligibility and ongoing assessments to monitor health and treatment response throughout the trial period.

Researchers are studying an experimental combination of two drugs called pozelimab and cemdisiran for adults with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare blood disorder. The study aims to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of this drug combination. It also investigates how the drugs behave in the body, possible side effects, and whether the body might develop antibodies against them that could affect treatment. Participants in this Phase 3 open-label extension study receive pozelimab and cemdisiran according to the study protocol. The study includes people who completed a parent study or those with a specific genetic variation (C5 polymorphism) making them resistant to certain other treatments. Treatments are administered as directed, and meningococcal vaccinations are required as part of the protocol. During the study, participants will attend clinic visits for various assessments, including safety monitoring for serious and special side effects up to week 108, and blood tests to measure changes in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels up to week 36. Researchers will track adverse events, treatment tolerance, and collect data on drug levels and antibody formation. The total study duration covers long-term follow-up to better understand the treatment's effects and safety.

The purpose of this study is to assess the anti-tumor activity and safety of amivantamab which will be administered as a co-formulation with recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20) (subcutaneous co-formulation \[SC-CF\]) in combination treatment (all cohorts except Cohort 4) and to characterize the safety of amivantamab SC-CF (Cohort 4).

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of icotrokinra in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease, a chronic condition causing severe inflammation in the intestinal tract. This Phase 2b/3 study aims to understand how well icotrokinra works compared to a placebo in improving symptoms and intestinal healing in this patient group. Participants will receive either icotrokinra or a matching placebo orally every day. The study includes both induction and maintenance phases where researchers assess clinical and endoscopic responses at specific time points, such as Week 12 and Week 40, to determine treatment effects over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and safety monitoring. Researchers will measure outcomes like clinical response, clinical remission, and endoscopic healing at Weeks 12 and 40. The study involves regular monitoring to track the participants' health and treatment adherence over the duration of the trial.

This research aims to compare intismeran autogene combined with pembrolizumab versus placebo with pembrolizumab as an additional treatment after surgery for people with stage II, IIIA, or IIIB (with nodal involvement) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has been fully removed with clear margins. The study is a phase 3 trial investigating whether the combination including intismeran autogene improves disease-free survival compared to the placebo combination. Participants will receive either intismeran autogene by intramuscular injection plus pembrolizumab by intravenous infusion or a placebo injection plus pembrolizumab. The treatments are given after surgery and standard platinum-based chemotherapy. No more than 24 weeks can pass from surgery to the first pembrolizumab dose. The study evaluates these treatments as adjuvant therapy to reduce cancer recurrence. During the trial, researchers will monitor participants for disease-free survival for up to approximately 78 months. Participants undergo regular assessments including medical evaluations to track cancer status and treatment effects. The study excludes those with prior neoadjuvant therapy, certain infections, or other cancer treatments that might interfere. Safety and long-term outcomes are carefully observed throughout the study period.
