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.

This trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of risankizumab compared to vedolizumab in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) who have not previously received targeted therapies. Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease causing inflammation and bleeding in the rectum and colon. The study is a Phase 3b, randomized, open-label trial enrolling about 530 participants across 285 sites worldwide. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either risankizumab or vedolizumab. Those in the risankizumab group will receive the drug intravenously during the initial induction phase, followed by subcutaneous injections for maintenance. Participants in the vedolizumab group will receive the drug intravenously throughout the study. The treatment period lasts 44 weeks for risankizumab and 46 weeks for vedolizumab, following a screening period of up to 35 days. During the study, participants will attend regular outpatient visits for medical assessments, side effect evaluations, and to complete questionnaires. Researchers will monitor disease activity and drug safety, focusing on the percentage of participants achieving endoscopic improvement by week 48. The total study duration is approximately 69 weeks for risankizumab and 71 weeks for vedolizumab recipients.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Afimkibart (RO7790121) as both an induction and maintenance treatment for people with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease in this Phase III, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The goal is to understand how well Afimkibart works compared to placebo in managing symptoms and disease activity over time. Participants will receive either Afimkibart or a matching placebo. Afimkibart is given both as an intravenous infusion and as a subcutaneous injection. This treat-through study means participants continue on the assigned treatment throughout the study period, allowing evaluation of both initial and ongoing therapy effects. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed to measure clinical remission using the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) and to check for endoscopic response at week 52. Researchers will monitor safety and treatment effects throughout, with the entire participation lasting up to one year. Assessments include clinical evaluations and endoscopic examinations to track disease changes and treatment impact.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of astegolimab compared to a placebo in adults aged 40 to 80 years who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The study focuses on participants who are former or current smokers with a history of frequent COPD flare-ups. This phase III trial aims to determine how well astegolimab reduces moderate and severe COPD exacerbations over one year. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either subcutaneous astegolimab every two or four weeks or a placebo every two weeks. All participants will continue their optimized COPD maintenance treatments, which may include combinations of inhaled corticosteroids, long-acting beta-agonists, and long-acting muscarinic antagonists. Study treatments will be administered over a 52-week period. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor the annual rate of moderate and severe COPD exacerbations. Participants will undergo lung function tests, chest imaging, and assessments of breathlessness and lung health. The study will also carefully track the safety of the treatments, including any infections or heart-related problems. The total participation time is 52 weeks, during which the effectiveness and safety of astegolimab will be evaluated.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of remibrutinib in adults aged 18 to 65 years with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS). This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, designed to better understand how remibrutinib affects disability progression in SPMS patients over time. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral remibrutinib tablets or matching placebo tablets during the Core Part of the study, which is event-driven and double-blinded. After this period, all participants may enter an Extension Part where they receive open-label remibrutinib treatment. This design allows researchers to compare remibrutinib against placebo and then monitor long-term effects when all participants receive the active drug. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including MRI scans and clinical evaluations to track changes in disability using the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS). The primary outcome measured is the time to confirmed disability progression over six months, with follow-up lasting up to approximately five years. Safety, tolerability, and other health parameters will also be closely monitored during both study phases.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of RO7837195 in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have not responded well or tolerated conventional or advanced treatments. This Phase IIb study aims to compare RO7837195 to a placebo during the initial treatment phase and then monitor all participants receiving the active drug to assess clinical remission at 12 weeks. The study includes a screening period lasting up to 5 weeks, followed by a 12-week induction phase where participants receive either RO7837195 or a matching placebo according to a specified schedule. After this induction phase, all participants enter a 40-week active treatment extension where they receive RO7837195 regardless of their earlier response. A safety follow-up period occurs after the last dose to continue monitoring participant health. Participants will undergo assessments throughout the study to measure clinical remission at week 12 and to monitor safety and pharmacokinetics. Researchers will collect data on symptoms, treatment effects, and any side effects experienced. The total participation involves multiple phases designed to carefully evaluate the long-term impact and safety of RO7837195 in ulcerative colitis management.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the effectiveness of astegolimab in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have already completed a 52-week treatment in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study focuses on participants aged 40 to 90 years and is a Phase III open-label extension trial designed to continue monitoring patients after their initial treatment period. Participants will receive astegolimab as a subcutaneous injection every two weeks during this extension study. This treatment continues from the prior placebo-controlled phase, allowing researchers to observe any ongoing effects and safety concerns over a longer period. The study does not include a placebo group during this extension phase, and all participants receive the active treatment. Throughout the study, researchers will closely monitor participants for any adverse events up to 12 weeks after the last dose of astegolimab. Participants will be assessed regularly to ensure their safety and to gather data on the treatment's long-term impact. The total duration of participant involvement depends on when they completed the parent studies but involves continued monitoring during and after the treatment period.
