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 evaluating the effect of a triple therapy inhaler called BGF MDI containing budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate compared with a dual therapy inhaler called GFF MDI containing glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who have a higher risk of heart and lung problems. This Phase III randomized, double-blind, parallel group study takes place at multiple centers and focuses on cardiopulmonary outcomes in these patients. Participants receive either the BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily or the GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 micrograms twice daily. The treatments are inhaled using metered dose inhalers. The study compares these two therapies over time to see how they affect the time until the first severe heart or lung event occurs. The study design ensures that neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given to reduce bias. During the study, participants will have regular visits to the study site or virtual visits to complete assessments. Researchers will monitor lung function, symptoms, and blood tests, including blood eosinophil counts and COPD assessment test scores. The main outcome measured is the time to the first severe cardiac or COPD event, with follow-up lasting up to three years. Safety and adherence to treatment will also be closely observed throughout the study 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.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of iza-bren, a bi-specific antibody-drug conjugate targeting EGFR and HER3 with a topoisomerase inhibitor, compared to the treatment of physician's choice (paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, carboplatin plus gemcitabine, or capecitabine). The study focuses on patients with previously untreated, locally advanced, recurrent inoperable, or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) or estrogen receptor (ER)-low, HER2-negative breast cancer who are not eligible for anti-PD(L)1 or endocrine therapies. The trial is conducted in two phases, phase 2 and phase 3, to thoroughly assess these treatments.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of the drug orforglipron compared with a placebo on cardiovascular outcomes in adults who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate major adverse cardiovascular events over a long period. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo orally. The study is event-driven and will continue until the occurrence of major cardiovascular events or up to about 5 years. The treatments are administered without revealing to participants which group they are in to ensure unbiased results. During the study, participants will be monitored for the time to the first occurrence of a major cardiovascular event. Researchers will collect data from baseline through the end of the study, which lasts approximately 5 years. Regular assessments will help evaluate the safety and effects of the treatments on cardiovascular health in this population.

A study to evaluate Pumitamig versus Durvalumab following concurrent chemoradiation therapy in participants with unresectable stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Researchers are evaluating whether the medicine vicadrostat, combined with empagliflozin, helps adults with chronic heart failure (HF) who have a weakened heart pumping function, specifically a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below 40%. Eligible participants must have been diagnosed with chronic HF at least 3 months before joining. The study is a Phase III trial designed to compare the effects of vicadrostat plus empagliflozin against placebo plus empagliflozin in people with symptomatic chronic HF classified as New York Heart Association classes II to IV. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group takes tablets containing vicadrostat and empagliflozin, while the other group takes placebo tablets that look like vicadrostat along with empagliflozin. Tablets are taken once daily for a period ranging from about 6 months up to about 3.5 years. Participants continue their usual heart failure treatments during the study. The study is double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the study staff know who is receiving which treatment. During the study, participants regularly visit the study site or may have phone contacts for follow-up. They answer questions about their health and well-being. Doctors monitor and record any worsening of heart failure symptoms, hospital visits due to heart failure, or deaths. They also check participants' overall health and note any side effects. The main outcome measured is the time until a participant experiences cardiovascular death, hospitalization for heart failure, or an urgent heart failure visit, over up to 43 months of follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating a new medicine called Sofetabart Mipitecan (LY4170156) in adults with certain types of ovarian, peritoneal, and fallopian tube cancers. This phase 3 study has two parts: Part A focuses on participants whose cancer no longer responds to platinum-based chemotherapy, while Part B includes those whose cancer still responds to platinum-based treatments. The study aims to compare Sofetabart Mipitecan against current standard treatments and to better understand its safety. Participants receive treatments administered through intravenous (IV) infusions. In Part A, Sofetabart Mipitecan is compared with various chemotherapy drugs or mirvetuximab soravtansine. In Part B, Sofetabart Mipitecan combined with bevacizumab is compared with platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab. Each participant's time in the study depends on how they respond to the treatment. During the study, researchers monitor participants for progression-free survival, measuring the time from randomization until cancer progression or death, for up to 70 months. Participants undergo assessments including scans to track tumor changes and evaluations of safety and side effects. The study collects tumor tissue samples and monitors participants' health status regularly to understand treatment effects and safety over time.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of muvalaplin on reducing cardiovascular risk in adults with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels who either have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or are at risk for a heart attack or stroke. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on adults with high Lp(a) levels and prior or potential cardiovascular events. The study aims to assess the time to the first major adverse cardiovascular event over about 5.25 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either muvalaplin or a placebo, both administered orally. The study includes individuals with Lp(a) levels of at least 175 nanomoles per liter who have had a prior cardiovascular event within 10 years or are at risk for a first event due to conditions such as coronary artery disease, carotid stenosis, peripheral artery disease, high coronary artery calcium score, reduced kidney function with diabetes, or other high-risk factors. The treatment period lasts through the study duration, with close monitoring. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated to track the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events, including heart attacks and strokes. Safety assessments will monitor blood pressure, kidney function, and heart failure status among other health indicators. The primary outcome measures the time to the first major cardiovascular event from baseline up to the end of the study, which spans approximately 5.25 years.
