Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of three different doses of MORF-057 in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD). This Phase 2 study is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and conducted at multiple centers. It aims to compare MORF-057 to placebo to see how well it works in reducing disease activity and symptoms in this patient population. Participants will first go through a 14-week induction period where they receive one of three doses of MORF-057 or a matching placebo, all given orally. After this, all participants will enter a 38-week maintenance phase where they receive open-label MORF-057. Those who complete these 52 weeks of treatment may continue in a 52-week long-term extension to further monitor treatment effects and safety. Throughout the study, participants will have evaluations to assess their response to treatment using endoscopic scoring at Week 14. Researchers will monitor safety, symptom changes, and disease activity over the full treatment and extension periods. Study visits will include assessments, questionnaires, and clinical monitoring to track participants' health and treatment adherence 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 investigating the long-term safety and tolerability of open-label iptacopan in adults with primary IgA nephropathy who have previously completed specific clinical trials (CLNP023X2203 or CLNP023A2301). This extension study is designed to allow participants continued access to iptacopan until certain conditions are met, such as reaching three years from the last patient first visit, loss of treatment benefit, negative benefit-risk profile, initiation of dialysis or kidney transplant, or commercial availability of the drug. The study will also assess the drug's effects on disease progression every six months. Participants who completed the prior trials and meet inclusion criteria may receive oral iptacopan capsules at a dose of 200 mg twice daily. The study is open-label and non-randomized and will continue treatment under this regimen until one of the study-defined stopping points is reached. Supportive care with ACE inhibitors or ARBs is maintained as per clinical guidelines, and vaccination against certain infections is required before enrollment. During the study, participants will be monitored for safety, including serious adverse events, adverse events of special interest, vital sign abnormalities, ECG changes, and laboratory test abnormalities from the first day of treatment until seven days after the last dose. Efficacy assessments occur every six months to evaluate clinical effects on disease progression. The study aims to collect long-term safety and tolerability data while providing ongoing treatment access until the drug becomes commercially available or other stopping criteria apply.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986504, a selective PRMT5 inhibitor, when combined with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine, compared to a placebo combined with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine. The study focuses on participants with untreated metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who have a specific genetic alteration called homozygous MTAP deletion. This is a randomized Phase 2/3 trial designed to explore treatment options for this patient population. Participants will be assigned to receive either BMS-986504 at specified doses on certain days along with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine, or a placebo with the same chemotherapy drugs. The treatments are given according to protocol schedules. Some participants may have received up to one cycle of Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine before starting the study treatment, provided they did not experience disease progression or intolerable side effects. The initial cycle must be completed before randomization. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for progression-free survival and overall survival for up to three years after the last participant is randomized. Assessments include measuring tumor response using established criteria (RECIST v1.1). Participants will undergo evaluations to track safety, treatment effects, and disease status throughout the trial period.

Researchers are comparing how long participants with KRAS/NRAS and BRAF wild-type recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic colorectal cancer remain disease-free and their overall survival time when treated with two different regimens. This phase 3 study focuses on patients who have previously received chemotherapy. The study aims to evaluate progression-free survival and overall survival in participants receiving amivantamab plus FOLFIRI versus cetuximab or bevacizumab plus FOLFIRI. The study involves two treatment groups: one receiving amivantamab combined with chemotherapy drugs 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium or levoleucovorin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI), and the other receiving either cetuximab or bevacizumab with the same chemotherapy regimen. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these treatment arms. The treatments will be administered according to protocol to assess their effects on the cancer. Participants will be monitored for up to 2 years and 1 month to measure progression-free survival through blinded independent central review and followed for overall survival for up to 4 years and 4 months. The study includes assessments of tumor response, safety, and other clinical evaluations. Tissue samples and detailed clinical data will also be collected. This comprehensive monitoring will help determine the comparative effectiveness of the treatment options over time.

Researchers are evaluating the anti-tumor activity of amivantamab combined with pembrolizumab and carboplatin compared to pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and platinum therapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in participants with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This trial focuses on participants who have not received prior systemic treatment in the recurrent/metastatic setting. HNSCC is a type of cancer affecting the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat and other head and neck regions. Participants will receive either amivantamab added to pembrolizumab and carboplatin or the standard care regimen of pembrolizumab, 5-FU, and a platinum agent (carboplatin or cisplatin). 5-FU will be given as an infusion over a 4-day period. The study is a phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter trial comparing these treatment combinations. During the study, researchers will monitor overall survival and the objective response rate using standard tumor evaluation criteria for up to about 3 years and 7 months. Participants will undergo assessments to measure disease response, including imaging and other evaluations, to track how well the treatments work. Safety and side effects will also be monitored throughout the trial period.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) happens when stomach acid or food repeatedly flows back into the esophagus, causing discomfort like heartburn and pain in the stomach, chest, or throat. This condition can affect people of all ages, including children. This research is focused on children aged 2 to 11 years who have symptomatic nonerosive GERD, which means they experience GERD symptoms without damage to the esophagus. The study aims to assess if different doses of the drug dexlansoprazole, adjusted based on body weight, can help relieve these symptoms in children. Participants in this study will receive daily oral doses of dexlansoprazole capsules in one of three amounts: 15 mg, 30 mg, or 60 mg. Children weighing 30 kilograms or less will be randomly assigned to take either 15 mg or 30 mg, while those weighing more than 30 kilograms will be assigned to 30 mg or 60 mg. The medication is taken once daily at the same time throughout the 12-week treatment period. The study will include up to 70 children across multiple centers worldwide. Children and their caregivers will keep an electronic diary to record any heartburn symptoms during the study. The research team will conduct multiple clinic visits over a period of up to 16 weeks, including up to 4 weeks for screening before treatment and a follow-up phone call 5 to 10 days after the final dose. The main outcome measured is the percentage of days without hurting or burning in the stomach, chest, or throat during the 12 weeks of treatment, alongside monitoring for side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the combination of BMS-986504, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy compared to placebo plus pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in people with first-line metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have a homozygous MTAP deletion. The study is a randomized phase 2/3 trial focused on assessing clinical benefits in this specific patient group. Participants will receive either BMS-986504 with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy or placebo with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy. The chemotherapy may include drugs such as cisplatin, carboplatin, pemetrexed, paclitaxel, or nab-paclitaxel, given at specified doses on specified days. This treatment is administered as part of the first-line therapy for metastatic disease. During the study, researchers will monitor progression-free survival up to 2 and 5 years using RECIST v1.1 criteria and overall survival up to 5 years. Participants will be assessed regularly for disease progression and survival outcomes. The study includes detailed monitoring to evaluate the effects and safety of the treatment combination over time.

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 safety and effectiveness of brenipatide at different doses compared with a placebo in adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma. This Phase 2 study focuses on participants who have a history of asthma requiring controller medication and recent severe asthma exacerbations. The goal is to better understand how brenipatide impacts asthma control over an extended period. Participants will receive either brenipatide or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection. The study includes a 52-week treatment period during which the effects of the drug on asthma exacerbations and symptoms will be monitored. This randomized, double-blind approach helps compare the responses between the treatment and placebo groups. Study involvement lasts about 65 weeks, covering screening, treatment, and follow-up phases. During the study, researchers will assess participants' asthma control using questionnaires and track the annual rate of asthma exacerbations. Safety and treatment responses will be closely monitored throughout the trial to evaluate the drug's impact and participant well-being.
