Researchers are investigating whether sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or combined with pembrolizumab can treat triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This phase 3 study compares these treatments to chemotherapy chosen by the physician, aiming to see if participants live longer or have longer periods without cancer growth or spread. The study focuses on people with previously untreated locally recurrent unresectable or metastatic TNBC with low PD-L1 expression. Participants receive sacituzumab tirumotecan through intravenous infusion alone or with pembrolizumab, also given intravenously. The study compares these to treatment options including paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, or gemcitabine plus carboplatin. Pre-medications like antihistamines, acetaminophen, and steroids are given before sacituzumab tirumotecan infusions to help reduce side effects. The trial evaluates safety and effectiveness over several months. Throughout the study, researchers monitor participants up to about 39 months for progression-free survival and up to about 61 months for overall survival. Participants undergo regular assessments to track cancer status and side effects. The study includes careful safety monitoring, and participants must meet specific health criteria to join. The total time in the study and follow-up depends on each participant's response and health status.

The HYIMPACT study is a large, observational research project across seven Asian countries designed to understand how Nebilet (nebivolol) works in people with high blood pressure, also called hypertension. It focuses on how Nebilet affects blood pressure control over time, treatment adherence, quality of life, prescription habits, and heart-related outcomes. The study includes about 5,000 adults with newly diagnosed or uncontrolled hypertension, some of whom may have other heart-related conditions. Participants will either start Nebilet treatment or have been on it for no more than two weeks before joining. They will be observed regularly for up to three years, with blood pressure measurements taken at baseline, 12, 24, and 36 months. The study also compares Nebilet used alone versus in combination with other treatments, and examines the relationship between blood pressure readings taken at home and in the clinic. Throughout the study, patients will have their blood pressure monitored, complete questionnaires about medication adherence and quality of life, and provide health information including cardiovascular risk factors and lab test results when available. Researchers will track major heart events like heart attacks and strokes, and record any side effects. Data will be collected electronically to ensure quality and consistency, helping to provide real-world insights about Nebilet's role in managing hypertension over time.
