Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of oral AP1189 combined with methotrexate (MTX) in adults with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have not previously taken disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). This phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to understand how different doses of AP1189 affect disease activity and inflammation in participants with active RA symptoms. The study involves four groups of 60 participants each, receiving either AP1189 at doses of 40 mg, 70 mg, 100 mg, or a placebo, all alongside oral methotrexate. Treatments are given daily for 12 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these groups to compare the dose response and safety of AP1189 combined with methotrexate versus methotrexate alone. Participants will attend scheduled visits to monitor their disease activity, safety, and tolerability of the treatment. Assessments include measuring changes in the Disease Activity Score 28 using C-Reactive Protein (DAS28-CRP) at week 12. The study also involves physical exams, joint assessments, blood tests for inflammation markers and antibodies, and safety monitoring. The total treatment period lasts 12 weeks, with ongoing evaluations throughout this time.

This research aims to collect long-term safety and effectiveness data for participants treated with ibrutinib, a medicine used for various blood cancers and conditions including Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, and Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease. It also provides ongoing access to ibrutinib for participants who have completed previous ibrutinib studies, continue treatment, and benefit from it. This is an open-label Phase 3b study without formal hypothesis testing. Participants will continue their current ibrutinib dosing regimen from the prior study, taken orally once daily as capsules in doses of 560 mg, 420 mg, 280 mg, or 140 mg, around the same time each day. Treatment continues until the investigator decides the participant no longer benefits due to disease progression or side effects, the participant withdraws, alternative ibrutinib access becomes available, or the study ends. Participants not able to access ibrutinib elsewhere can keep receiving the single-agent ibrutinib until all transition or stop treatment, or until the study is stopped. During the study, safety is monitored throughout and summarized, and effectiveness may be analyzed together with previous study data. The main outcome measured is the number of participants experiencing any adverse events within 30 days after the last dose or until starting another cancer treatment. Participants will undergo assessments including pregnancy testing and investigator evaluations to ensure ongoing benefit and safety. The study duration depends on when participants stop treatment or transition to other access.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of abrocitinib, given as a liquid oral suspension, in children aged 2 years and older with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. This Phase 3, open-label study includes children who have previously participated in abrocitinib studies as well as those who have not. The goal is to study up to 500 children globally over a period of up to 2 years or until the medicine becomes commercially available. Participants will receive abrocitinib oral suspension, with or without topical medications, throughout the study. The study consists of two groups: an extension group of children aged 2 to under 12 years who completed prior abrocitinib studies, and a de novo group of children aged 6 to under 12 years new to abrocitinib treatment. Both groups will be monitored for up to 24 months. During the study, children will be regularly assessed through evaluations, including monitoring for any adverse events, laboratory tests, and clinical examinations. Researchers will track treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, and any events leading to study discontinuation. Safety and efficacy will be closely followed throughout the entire study period to understand the long-term effects of abrocitinib in this population.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KarXT combined with KarX-EC in adults aged 55 to 90 who have agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease. This phase 3 study aims to better understand how these treatments impact agitation symptoms in this population by comparing them to a placebo group. Participants must have a confirmed Alzheimer's diagnosis and meet specific criteria for agitation severity to join the study. Participants will receive either the Xanomeline/Trospium Chloride Capsule, Xanomeline Enteric Capsule, or a placebo, each given at specified doses on designated days. The study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled to ensure reliable comparison of treatment effects. The treatment period lasts through Week 14, during which dosing schedules are closely followed. Throughout the study, participants will be regularly assessed using the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory-International Psychogeriatric Association (CMAI-IPA) to measure changes in agitation levels from baseline to Week 14. Caregivers will provide reports on participant status and help ensure medication compliance. Safety and symptom changes will be carefully monitored to evaluate the treatments' effects during this period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KT-621, an oral drug, in adults and adolescents aged 12 to 75 years with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), a common form of eczema. This phase 2b study aims to assess how well KT-621 reduces the severity and extent of AD, its safety and tolerability, how the drug behaves in the body, and the body's response to the drug. The study includes a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by a 52-week open-label phase. Participants will receive either KT-621 or a matching oral placebo during the initial 16-week double-blind period. Following this, all participants have the option to enter a 52-week open-label period where they receive KT-621. During these phases, participants will continue their regular use of moisturizers twice daily and adhere to the treatment plan. The study is conducted across multiple centers and includes dose-ranging to evaluate different doses of KT-621. Throughout the study, participants will have scheduled visits for assessments including clinical evaluations of eczema severity using the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score, which measures changes from baseline through week 16. Other evaluations include questionnaires, laboratory tests, and adherence monitoring via an electronic diary. Safety and tolerability are closely monitored, and participants are expected to comply with all study procedures over the entire duration of the trial, including both the double-blind and open-label periods.

Researchers are evaluating the medicine called abrocitinib in children aged 6 to less than 12 years old with moderate-to-severe eczema. This phase 3 study aims to find out if abrocitinib improves eczema symptoms and is safe for this age group. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either abrocitinib or a placebo for 16 weeks, with the total study lasting about 24 weeks. Participants will receive abrocitinib or placebo as a liquid oral suspension. During the study, children will use an electronic diary on a device resembling a cell phone to record questionnaire responses and receive daily reminders to take their medicine. They will also wear a wrist device to monitor scratching due to eczema. The study includes regular clinic visits and calls from study staff to monitor progress and adherence. Throughout the study, laboratory tests, physical exams, and vital signs (height, weight, temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate) will be conducted to monitor health. Questionnaires will assess eczema severity and improvement using standardized scales. The main outcomes measured at week 12 include skin clearance or near clearance and at least 75% improvement in eczema severity. Safety and overall health will be followed for the entire study duration.

Researchers are conducting a multi-center, global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of IMVT-1402 in adults with Graves' disease who remain hyperthyroid despite antithyroid drug treatment. The study focuses on participants aged 18 to 75 years who have this diagnosis and are still experiencing hyperthyroidism. Participants will receive either IMVT-1402 or a placebo for 26 weeks. The study includes two dosing regimens of IMVT-1402: Dose 1 administered for 26 weeks and Dose 2 also administered for 26 weeks. The placebo group will receive treatment for the same duration. The treatments are given as drugs, and the study is designed to keep both participants and researchers unaware of which treatment is assigned. During the study, researchers will monitor participants to see how many achieve normal thyroid function (euthyroid) and remain off antithyroid drugs by Week 26. Participants will be assessed regularly to evaluate safety, tolerability, and treatment effects. The involvement includes following the assigned treatment and attending scheduled visits for evaluations. The total participation time corresponds with the 26-week treatment period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tulisokibart, a humanized monoclonal antibody, in people with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. The research includes two studies: Study 1, which has induction and maintenance treatment phases, and Study 2, which only includes induction treatment. The main goals are to see if tulisokibart can help participants achieve clinical remission and endoscopic response compared to placebo, measured at 12 and 52 weeks depending on the study and region (US/FDA or EU/EMA).

This trial focuses on people aged 55 to 90 who have agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease and previously finished one of two earlier studies. It aims to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of a combination treatment using xanomeline tartrate/trospium chloride immediate release capsules (KarXT) and xanomeline enteric capsules (KarX-EC) in these participants. The study is a Phase 3 open-label extension, meaning all participants receive the treatment while researchers observe effects over time. Participants receive specified doses of KarXT and KarX-EC on set days as part of the treatment regimen. The study follows those who completed the earlier parent studies CN012-0023 or CN012-0024, continuing to monitor their response to the combined medication over an extended period. Throughout the study, researchers evaluate the number of participants who experience any treatment-emergent adverse events up to about 30 weeks. Caregiver involvement is required, with at least one caregiver having regular contact of about 10 hours per week or more. Safety and tolerability are closely monitored to understand the long-term impact of the treatment in managing agitation associated with Alzheimer's Disease.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of ritlecitinib for treating chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) in adults whose condition is not well controlled by antihistamines. CSU causes itchy hives and swelling under the skin without a clear cause. This Phase 2b study compares two oral doses of ritlecitinib, 50 mg and 100 mg, with a placebo to understand if these doses are safe and effective in managing symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to take either 50 mg, 100 mg, or placebo capsules once daily for 12 weeks (Period A). After this, those on ritlecitinib will continue their assigned dose while those on placebo will switch to 100 mg for another 12 weeks (Period B). The study involves about 150 adult participants and compares the effects of the two ritlecitinib doses against placebo over these two 12-week periods. Participants will be involved in the study for about 8 months with up to 9 visits to the study site. During visits, they will have physical exams, hearing tests, blood tests, X-rays, and ECGs. They will also complete daily questionnaires about their urticaria symptoms using an electronic diary. Researchers will measure changes in urticaria activity and monitor for any treatment-related side effects or adverse events throughout the study.
