Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of three different dose regimens of MORF-057, a small molecule drug, in adults with moderately to severely active Crohns disease CD. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study aims to compare these doses with a matching placebo during an induction treatment period. The study includes adult participants who have active symptoms of CD and have not adequately responded to other treatments. Participants will first undergo a 14-week induction period where they receive either one of the three blinded MORF-057 dose regimens or a matching placebo, all taken orally. Following this, all participants enter a 38-week maintenance period receiving open-label MORF-057. Those who complete this 52-week treatment phase may have the chance to continue treatment for an additional 52 weeks during a long-term extension. MORF-057 is designed to selectively inhibit integrin 47. During the study, participants will have their disease activity monitored using endoscopic assessments and clinical symptom scores, such as the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohns Disease SES-CD and the Crohns Disease Activity Index CDAI. Researchers will assess the proportion of participants showing endoscopic response and clinical remission at Week 14. Safety and adherence will be closely followed throughout the treatment and extension phases. The entire study spans up to 6 years, allowing for long-term evaluation.

Researchers are evaluating the combination of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin in people with chronic kidney disease CKD and high blood pressure hypertension. This Phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to assess whether this combination reduces the risk of serious kidney damage, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death compared to dapagliflozin alone. The study includes participants with CKD and hypertension who meet specific kidney function and blood pressure criteria. Participants who are not already taking SGLT2 inhibitors will first complete a 4-week dapagliflozin run-in period. Then, they will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or a placebo plus dapagliflozin. Baxdrostat dosing may start low and be increased if needed. Study visits will occur at 2, 4, 8, 16, 34, and 52 weeks after randomization, and then approximately every four months until the study ends, which is based on the number of key kidney or heart-related events. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including blood tests to monitor kidney function and potassium levels, blood pressure measurements, and evaluations of heart and kidney health. If participants stop the blinded study drug early, they will continue dapagliflozin if possible and remain in the study for ongoing visits and monitoring. The main outcome is whether the combination treatment reduces the risk of a 50% sustained decline in kidney function, kidney failure, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death over up to 37 months.

This research is an extension study for participants with cancer who have been previously enrolled in a Genentech andor F. Hoffmann-La Roche sponsored study. It aims to provide continued treatment with Roche investigational medicinal products IMPs either as monotherapy or combined with other agents for those still on study treatment at the time of rollover, particularly when local access to the study treatment is not available. The study is open-label and multicenter, focusing on long-term treatment continuation under medical supervision. Participants will continue receiving Roche IMPs following the same dose, schedule, and administration guidelines as in the parent study. Treatments include monotherapy or combination therapy with drugs such as Ipatasertib, Tiragolumab, Atezolizumab, Bevacizumab, Entrectinib, Inavolisib, and Divarasib. Treatment continues until disease progression, loss of clinical benefit, death, withdrawal of consent, unacceptable toxicity, pregnancy, non-compliance, local treatment availability, or study termination. During the study, participants are monitored for ongoing treatment benefits and adverse events as assessed by standard criteria. Researchers measure the number of participants maintaining access to Roche IMP-based therapy and track the number and severity of selected adverse events over up to approximately 10 years. Safety and treatment effectiveness are evaluated regularly, with participant follow-up continuing as long as treatment is administered or until study completion.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the drug baricitinib in treating juvenile idiopathic arthritis JIA in children and adolescents aged 1 to under 18 years. Participants in this study have previously taken part in other baricitinib studies for JIA. The purpose is to monitor how well baricitinib works and to assess any serious side effects over an extended period. Participants will receive baricitinib orally during the study. This is a single-group trial where all participants receive the same treatment. The study follows participants for a total duration of up to 264 weeks approximately 5 years, during which they will be monitored closely for safety and disease activity. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including monitoring for serious adverse events and treatment discontinuations. Researchers will also evaluate disease activity, pain levels, and other health measures using various clinical tools at baseline and at the end of the study period. This long-term follow-up ensures thorough evaluation of baricitinibs impact and participant well-being.

Researchers are evaluating orforglipron to measure its effects on cardiovascular outcomes in adults aged 50 and older who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD andor chronic kidney disease CKD. This phase 3 study aims to compare orforglipron with a placebo to better understand its impact on major cardiovascular events over about five years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either orforglipron orally along with standard care or a placebo orally along with standard care. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers will know who receives the active drug or placebo during the trial period. During the study, participants will be followed for around five years, with researchers monitoring the time to the first major cardiovascular event and additional outcomes such as cardiovascular and kidney events, changes in kidney function measured by eGFR, and the onset of type 2 diabetes. The study includes regular assessments to track these outcomes and ensure participant safety throughout the long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the safety of an investigational varicella vaccine VNS Vaccine compared to an approved varicella vaccine called Varivax. This study focuses on healthy children aged 12 to 15 months who have not had chickenpox or received any varicella vaccine before. The goal is to understand how well the new vaccine is tolerated in this young population. Participants will receive one dose of either the investigational varicella vaccine or the marketed Varivax vaccine, both given by injection under the skin. Along with the varicella vaccine, each child will also receive one dose each of measles, mumps, and rubella MMR vaccine, hepatitis A vaccine, and a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV, which may be PCV 13, Vaxneuvance, or PCV 20, depending on availability and national recommendations. All vaccines are given on the first day of the study. During the study, parents will record any side effects their child experiences, particularly those related to the injection site or systemic symptoms like fever, for up to 43 days. Researchers will monitor any adverse events, including serious and medically attended events, for up to 181 days after vaccination. This helps assess the safety and tolerability of the investigational vaccine over a period of about six months.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of brenipatide at different dose levels compared with placebo in adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma. This Phase 2 study aims to better understand how brenipatide may affect asthma symptoms and exacerbations over one year of treatment. Participants in this study are adults aged 18 to 75 years with a history of asthma and recent severe exacerbations. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of brenipatide or a placebo, all administered by subcutaneous injection. The treatment period lasts 52 weeks, during which participants receive their assigned injections and are monitored regularly. The study includes a screening period before treatment and a follow-up period after treatment to assess ongoing safety and effects. During the study, participants will attend visits to complete questionnaires, lung function tests such as forced expiratory volume in one second FEV1, and assessments of asthma control and medication use. Researchers will monitor asthma exacerbation rates, rescue medication use, and the presence of anti-drug antibodies. The total study duration including screening, treatment, and follow-up is approximately 65 weeks.

Researchers are investigating the treatment outcomes of subcutaneous anifrolumab 120 mg given once weekly as add-on therapy to antimalarials, with or without glucocorticoids GCs, in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus SLE who have not previously received immunosuppressants or biologic therapies and are not in low disease activity status at enrollment. This Phase 3, multinational, open-label study aims to better understand remission rates, including DORIS remission, and the ability to taper and withdraw chronic GCs in this patient group. Participants will receive anifrolumab administered subcutaneously once weekly for 52 weeks using an autoinjector pen. The study includes a screening period of up to 35 days before treatment starts. For patients on higher doses of GCs at baseline, a structured tapering protocol will be followed from week 5 to week 40, aiming to reduce GC doses to 5 mgday and potentially withdraw GCs completely after sustained remission. After week 40, no further GC dose reductions will occur. An additional 12-week safety follow-up is planned for participants who discontinue anifrolumab after week 52. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including clinical evaluations, quality of life and fatigue questionnaires, and laboratory tests to monitor disease activity and remission status. Researchers will measure outcomes such as attainment and duration of DORIS remission, low disease activity, flare incidence, and changes in GC use. Safety will be monitored throughout treatment and in the follow-up period. The total study duration for participants is approximately 69 weeks, including screening, treatment, and safety follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of AZD6793, an oral medication, in adults with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. This Phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involves approximately 970 participants across about 350 global sites. The trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of two different doses of AZD6793 against placebo over a 24-week period. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups receiving either dose 1 of AZD6793, dose 2 of AZD6793, or a matching placebo tablet. The study medication is taken orally and the trial lasts for 24 weeks. The study is designed as a parallel-group format with a 111 allocation ratio among the three arms. During the study, participants will be monitored through various assessments including lung function tests measuring forced expiratory volume FEV1, questionnaires evaluating breathlessness, cough, sputum, and quality of life, and tracking of COPD exacerbation events. Blood samples will be collected to measure plasma concentrations of AZD6793. Safety and efficacy outcomes will be evaluated up to 24 weeks, with the main outcome being the rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations.

Researchers are evaluating whether eptinezumab can reduce the number of migraine days compared to a placebo in adolescents aged 12 to 17 with chronic migraine. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study aims to assess the preventive treatment effects of intravenous eptinezumab in this young population who experience frequent migraines. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive a single intravenous infusion of either eptinezumab 300 mg, eptinezumab 100 mg both doses adjusted by body weight, or a placebo. The study includes a 4-week screening period, followed by a 12-week double-blind treatment phase and an 8-week safety follow-up period. The doses are designed to target adult exposure levels based on weight. During the study, participants will complete a headache electronic diary to track migraine and headache days. Researchers will monitor changes in monthly migraine days over 12 weeks as the primary outcome. Additional assessments include migraine reduction percentages, medication usage, headache severity, disability scores, and blood tests for drug levels and antibodies. Safety and tolerability will be evaluated through the follow-up period, totaling about 24 weeks of participation.
