Researchers are studying metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer mCRPC to find new treatment options. This trial evaluates if the study medicine ifinatamab deruxtecan I-DXd or MK-2400 helps people live longer overall and experience slower cancer growth or spread compared to chemotherapy. The study is a Phase 3 trial comparing I-DXd with standard chemotherapy for mCRPC patients. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either I-DXd at 12 mgkg every 3 weeks through intravenous infusion or docetaxel chemotherapy at 75 mgm2 every 3 weeks combined with daily prednisone pills. Treatment continues until the disease progresses, unacceptable side effects occur, or treatment is stopped for other reasons. Premedication is given before each dose of I-DXd to help prevent nausea and vomiting. During the study, participants will have regular visits for treatment and monitoring. Researchers will assess overall survival and radiographic progression-free survival for up to about 36 months. Additional measures include response rates, time to pain progression, PSA progression, and adverse events. The study tracks safety, treatment effects, and quality of life over a long follow-up period to better understand the potential benefits and risks of I-DXd compared to chemotherapy.

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.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study. This trial focuses on patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study aims to assess how AZD0780 compares to placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, also known as MACE-PLUS, over the course of the trial. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 once daily or a matching placebo once daily. The study continues until a primary analysis censoring date, which may be up to approximately 54 months from randomization. After this, a study closure visit will be conducted as the final visit for each participant. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, urgent coronary revascularizations, and other related outcomes. Researchers will track the time to first occurrence of these events as the primary outcome. Safety and other secondary outcomes like all-cause mortality will also be assessed. The total participation time can last up to about 54 months, with ongoing evaluations throughout this period.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a triple therapy inhaler combining budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate BGF MDI 32014.49.6 g compared to a dual therapy inhaler with glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate GFF MDI 14.49.6 g on heart and lung outcomes in adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD who have a higher risk for heart and lung events. This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and conducted at multiple centers, focusing on participants with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk. Participants will receive either the triple therapy inhaler or the dual therapy inhaler, both administered twice daily. The study compares these two inhalers over a period of up to three years, monitoring for serious cardiac or COPD events. The trial includes careful evaluation of various heart and lung-related health events during this period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through regular visits, assessments, and tests to measure lung function, heart events, and COPD exacerbations. Researchers will track the time until the first severe cardiac or COPD event and evaluate other cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes over up to three years. Participants will also be assessed for their ability to properly use the inhaler and adherence to the study protocol throughout the trial.

This trial focuses on people with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, including certain types of ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancers. It aims to study the safety and tolerance of sacituzumab tirumotecan combined with bevacizumab and compare how long participants live without their cancer worsening when treated with sacituzumab tirumotecan, with or without bevacizumab, versus standard care. The study is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label trial designed to evaluate these treatments after second-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Participants are assigned to one of three groups one group receives sacituzumab tirumotecan plus bevacizumab through intravenous infusions every 2 and 3 weeks respectively for 6 weeks another group receives sacituzumab tirumotecan alone every 2 weeks for up to about 2 years or until the disease progresses, with optional bevacizumab at the doctors choice the third group follows the local standard care until progression, with optional bevacizumab as determined by the physician. The study includes rescue medications such as H1 and H2 receptor antagonists, acetaminophen, dexamethasone, and steroid mouthwash taken as needed according to approved guidelines. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events up to 6 weeks in Part 1 and for progression-free survival for up to about 4 years in Part 2. Additional assessments include overall survival for up to 6 years and quality of life measures through questionnaires at baseline and periodically up to approximately 4 years. Safety and treatment tolerability will be closely tracked, and participants will have intravenous infusions and follow-up visits throughout the study period, which may last several years depending on disease progression and treatment continuation.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of tezepelumab in adults with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD who are receiving inhaled maintenance therapy. This Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on adults aged 40 to 80 years who have experienced multiple COPD exacerbations in the year prior to enrollment. The trial aims to assess tezepelumabs impact compared to placebo on COPD exacerbations and lung function. Participants will receive monthly subcutaneous injections of one of two doses of tezepelumab or a matching placebo. Treatment duration ranges from a minimum of 52 weeks to a maximum of 76 weeks. Following the treatment period, participants will undergo a 12-week off-treatment safety follow-up to monitor any lasting effects. Throughout the study, participants will be regularly assessed for COPD exacerbations, lung function changes measured by forced expiratory volume FEV1, and quality of life using questionnaires such as the St. Georges Respiratory Questionnaire and COPD Assessment Test. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug levels and immune responses. Safety and efficacy will be closely monitored, with total participation lasting up to approximately 88 weeks including follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating tozorakimab as an additional treatment to standard care in adults hospitalized with viral lung infection who need supplemental oxygen. The study aims to determine if tozorakimab can help prevent death or the need for invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. This Phase III trial involves a large group of participants to assess the safety and effectiveness of this approach. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one group receives a single intravenous dose of tozorakimab on the first day, while the other group receives a matching placebo. The study uses a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given. This helps ensure unbiased results. The treatments are given once, and participants continue to receive standard care during the trial. During the study, participants are closely monitored and evaluated up to 60 days after treatment. Researchers track important outcomes such as death rates, progression to invasive ventilation, days alive outside intensive care, and oxygen use. They also assess clinical progression using a World Health Organization scale and monitor for any anti-drug antibodies. The trial lasts until November 2027, with multiple assessments throughout to understand the treatments impact and safety.

This research aims to evaluate the effects of combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in adults aged 40 and older who have type 2 diabetes, established cardiovascular disease, a history of hypertension with a systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg, and at least one additional risk factor for heart failure. The study is a phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled trial focusing on preventing heart failure events and cardiovascular death. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat with dapagliflozin or placebo with dapagliflozin. Those starting the baxdrostatdapagliflozin treatment may begin with a lower baxdrostat dose that can be increased if certain criteria are met. A run-in period with dapagliflozin alone for 4 to 6 weeks may occur for those not previously treated or treated less than 4 weeks with SGLT2 inhibitors. Treatment visits will occur at about 2, 4, 8, 16, and 34 weeks after randomization, then every 4 months until study closure. Participants will undergo screening for eligibility within a 14-day period, with an optional pre-screening phase that does not require site visits or consent. During the study, regular assessments including monitoring for heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes will be conducted. If participants stop the blinded treatment early, they may continue with open-label dapagliflozin unless specific discontinuation criteria apply. The study will continue until a predetermined number of cardiovascular events occur, with ongoing data collection and visits according to protocol.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of balcinrenone combined with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in patients who have chronic heart failure, impaired kidney function, and have recently experienced a heart failure event. This Phase III study is conducted internationally across about 700 sites and aims to assess how these treatments impact cardiovascular death and heart failure events. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups balcinrenonedapagliflozin 15 mg10 mg plus placebo, balcinrenonedapagliflozin 40 mg10 mg plus placebo, or dapagliflozin 10 mg plus placebo. Each participant will take one capsule and one tablet daily. The study duration averages 22 months, including screening, about 20 months of blinded treatment, and a one-month follow-up with open-label dapagliflozin. During the study, participants will undergo assessments for heart failure events, hospitalizations, and cardiovascular death. Researchers will monitor these outcomes over about 38 months, including symptom scores and other health measures. Safety and treatment effects will be followed during the treatment and the one-month post-treatment period.

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.
