Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy as the first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express high levels of PD-L1. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter global study focuses on patients with mNSCLC without certain genetic mutations who are suitable for this treatment approach. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study compares these two drugs over repeated treatment cycles as first-line therapy. Both treatments are biological agents given by infusion, and the study is designed to monitor their effects over up to approximately five years. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including physical exams, imaging scans such as CT or MRI to measure tumor lesions, and laboratory tests to evaluate organ function. Researchers will closely monitor overall survival, progression-free survival, treatment response, duration of response, and patient-reported outcomes on physical functioning and quality of life. Safety and immunogenicity of rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants are followed and assessed for up to five years to gather comprehensive data on treatment effects and long-term outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of EYU688, an oral drug, compared with a placebo in patients with dengue fever. The study aims to understand how EYU688 influences dengue viral load, fever clearance time, and clinical symptoms. This randomized, participant- and investigator-blinded, placebo-controlled trial includes two patient groups based on different pharmacokinetic sampling schedules. Participants will receive either EYU688 or a matching placebo orally. The study runs two cohorts in parallel one with intensive pharmacokinetic sampling and another with sparse sampling. Treatment and assessments occur from the start of dosing through Day 15, with additional safety monitoring up to Day 35. The study measures drug concentration levels and viral load changes over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo evaluations including viral load tests, fever monitoring, blood tests for blood cells and liver enzymes, and assessments for dengue severity. Safety and adverse events are recorded up to Day 35. The primary outcome is viral load reduction at 48 hours after treatment begins. Participation lasts until study completion, expected by July 2027.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of Dato-DXd combined with osimertinib or Dato-DXd alone compared to platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in people with EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC whose disease progressed after prior osimertinib treatment. This Phase III, open-label, randomized study aims to compare progression-free survival among these treatments to better understand options for this condition. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups Dato-DXd plus osimertinib, Dato-DXd alone, or platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. Dato-DXd is given as an intravenous infusion every 3 weeks, osimertinib is taken orally daily, and chemotherapy involves pemetrexed combined with carboplatin or cisplatin every 3 weeks for four cycles, followed by maintenance pemetrexed. Treatments continue until disease progression, unacceptable side effects, or other reasons to stop. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments including radiological scans to monitor tumor response using RECIST v1.1 criteria, safety evaluations, and health status measurements. After stopping treatment, an end-of-treatment visit occurs within 35 days, followed by safety follow-up 28 days after the last dose. The study primarily measures progression-free survival over up to 2.5 years, with additional outcomes including overall survival, response rates, quality of life, and pharmacokinetics monitored for up to 3.5 years.

Researchers are evaluating treatments for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that have specific genetic changes called HER2 mutations. This lung cancer has spread or cannot be controlled with current treatments. The study aims to compare how well a drug called sevabertinib works and how safe it is compared to standard treatment for this type of cancer. Participants will receive either sevabertinib tablets twice daily or standard treatment consisting of pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy given every 21 days by infusion. Those on standard treatment who experience disease progression may switch to sevabertinib. Treatment continues as long as participants benefit and do not have severe side effects or until they or their doctor decide to stop. During the study, participants will have imaging scans like CT, PET, MRI, and X-rays to monitor cancer spread. Doctors will also perform health checks including blood and urine tests, heart monitoring with ECG, pregnancy tests for women, and ask about symptoms or side effects. The main measure is progression-free survival assessed up to about 2 years, with additional outcomes related to survival, response rates, side effects, and quality of life followed up to 4 years.

Researchers are conducting a combined Phase 2b and Phase 3 clinical trial to study CSL300 Clazakizumab in adults with end stage kidney disease ESKD who are undergoing maintenance dialysis. The study aims to find the right dose of CSL300 and then evaluate its effect on cardiovascular outcomes and safety in people with systemic inflammation and either atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD or diabetes. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving multiple centers. Participants will receive intravenous IV administration of either CSL300 or a placebo. The Phase 2b part focuses on determining the appropriate dose of CSL300 compared to placebo over about 12 weeks, while the Phase 3 part examines CSL300s effect on cardiovascular events over approximately five years. The study includes different dosing groups in Phase 2b and a larger comparison of CSL300 versus placebo in Phase 3. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly with blood tests that measure inflammation markers such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein hs-CRP, cardiovascular events, and safety outcomes. Researchers will track changes in various blood components and adverse events up to 32 weeks in Phase 2b and follow cardiovascular outcomes for up to five years in Phase 3. The total participation lasts through these periods with scheduled assessments to evaluate treatment effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a medicine called BI 690517 combined with empagliflozin in adults with chronic kidney disease CKD who are at risk of their kidney condition getting worse. The study includes people with or without type 2 diabetes and those who may already be taking medicines like angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors ACEi, angiotensin receptor blockers ARB, or sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors SGLT2i. The goal is to understand if adding BI 690517 can help delay worsening kidney function, hospitalizations due to heart failure, or cardiovascular death. After a run-in period where all participants take empagliflozin and other standard medications, participants are randomly assigned to receive either BI 690517 tablets or placebo tablets once daily alongside empagliflozin. The run-in period confirms that participants are stabilized on empagliflozin before randomization. The treatment phase continues for about three to four years until enough kidney or heart-related events have occurred to compare outcomes between the two groups. During the study, participants visit the study site about five times in the first six months and then every six months thereafter. At these visits, health is regularly checked through blood and urine tests, blood pressure and weight measurements, kidney function monitoring, and collection of any side effect information. The main outcome measured is the time until the first occurrence of kidney disease progression, hospitalization for heart failure, or cardiovascular death.

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.

Researchers are studying volrustomig combined with other anticancer drugs to assess its safety, tolerability, how the body processes it, immune response, and ability to fight solid tumors, focusing on various types of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC. This Phase II open-label study includes two substudies, with participants randomized into different treatment arms based on tumor types and treatment regimens. Participants will receive volrustomig by intravenous infusion combined with chemotherapy drugs such as carboplatin, pemetrexed, ramucirumab, or paclitaxel, depending on the assigned treatment arm. The study tests different volrustomig dosing regimens alongside these anticancer agents to explore their combined effects in mNSCLC. Two substudies focus on non-squamous and squamousnon-squamous mNSCLC with specific treatment combinations. During the trial, participants will undergo regular monitoring for adverse events and treatment responses for up to nearly three years. Researchers will evaluate tumor response rates, disease control, survival, and drug levels in the blood. Safety and immune responses will also be tracked throughout. Participants can expect scheduled visits for infusions, assessments, and tests to measure the study treatments effects and safety over the study period.
