Researchers are evaluating lutetium (177Lu) vipivotide tetraxetan (177Lu-PSMA) as a systemic additional treatment for men with high or very high risk prostate cancer. This phase 2 clinical trial focuses on patients who have completed radical locoregional teleradiotherapy and hormone therapy and have no signs of cancer spread in recent imaging. The goal is to assess treatment effectiveness up to 5 years after treatment ends. The study involves a single dose of 7.4 GBq of 177Lu-PSMA given to the research group, while both groups continue standard hormone therapy. The intervention phase lasts one day, followed by a 5-year observation phase to monitor outcomes. The study includes 200 adult men meeting specific health and cancer risk criteria. Participants will undergo regular assessments during the 5-year observation to evaluate treatment effectiveness and safety. Researchers will monitor organ function, hormone levels, and cancer status through radiological tests and clinical evaluations. The main outcome measured is treatment effectiveness assessed at 2 and 5 years after treatment completion.

Researchers are studying a new treatment combination for adults with advanced breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive, HER2 negative, and GRPR positive. The trial aims to find the recommended dose of the drug [177Lu]Lu-NeoB when given with ribociclib and fulvestrant to participants who have experienced early relapse after endocrine therapy or whose disease has progressed after endocrine therapy combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. This Phase 1 study includes a dose escalation part and a backfill part to assess safety, tolerability, and preliminary effectiveness. Participants will receive [177Lu]Lu-NeoB once every 28-day cycle for six cycles, ribociclib daily on days 1 to 21 of each cycle, and fulvestrant on specific days beginning at cycle 1. Pre- or perimenopausal women and men will also receive goserelin. The trial includes imaging with the radioactive agent [68Ga]Ga-NeoB at screening, possibly at cycle 2 day 15, and again 4 to 8 weeks after the last dose of [177Lu]Lu-NeoB to help locate cancer lesions. During the study, participants visit the clinic regularly for treatment, safety checks, and tumor assessments. Safety follow-up continues for 8 weeks after treatment ends, with extended monitoring every 12 to 24 weeks for up to 5 years to track side effects, adverse events, and treatment interruptions. Researchers will closely observe any dose-limiting toxicities and evaluate overall safety and effectiveness throughout the study period.

Researchers are studying whether combining calderasib, a targeted therapy for the KRAS G12C mutation, with subcutaneous pembrolizumab can treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aims to determine if people receiving calderasib with pembrolizumab live longer without their cancer growing or spreading compared to those receiving pembrolizumab with chemotherapy. This is a phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial focusing on participants with advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC carrying the KRAS G12C mutation. Participants will receive one of two treatment combinations. One group will take calderasib orally along with subcutaneous pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa injections. The other group will receive subcutaneous pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy drugs pemetrexed and a platinum-based drug, either carboplatin or cisplatin, administered by intravenous infusion. These treatments are given as first-line therapy, and the study evaluates their safety and effectiveness. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for progression-free survival, especially focusing on those with at least 1% PD-L1 tumor proportion score, for up to approximately 48 months. Participants will undergo regular assessments to track cancer progression and response to treatment. Safety and efficacy data will be collected throughout the study to understand how well the treatments work and their side effects over time.

Researchers are investigating new treatments for metastatic cervical cancer, which is cancer that has spread from the cervix to other parts of the body. This Phase 3 study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of combining sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), an antibody drug that targets cancer cells, with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab. The study seeks to find out if this combination can help people live longer or keep their cancer from worsening compared to standard treatments. The study has two parts. In Part 1, participants receive sac-TMT together with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab to assess safety. In Part 2, after standard initial treatment, those whose cancer does not progress will be randomly assigned to maintenance treatment with either pembrolizumab alone or sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab. Bevacizumab may be added during maintenance treatment based on the doctor's decision. All treatments are given through intravenous infusions, and participants may receive rescue medications to manage side effects before sac-TMT infusion. Participants will be monitored for adverse events and treatment tolerability over several months. The study measures include progression-free survival and overall survival, assessed by independent review. Safety and treatment continuation rates are tracked during Part 1 for up to approximately 66-69 months, while Part 2 outcome measures extend up to 48-60 months. Various assessments, including laboratory tests and evaluations of cancer status, will be performed throughout the study to understand treatment effects and participant well-being.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effects of a combination treatment using BNT113 and pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that is positive for human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16+) and expresses the PD-L1 protein with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. This Phase II/III trial includes patients whose cancer cannot be treated with local therapies and who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapy for their current disease condition. The trial consists of two parts. Part A is a non-randomized Safety Run-In Phase to confirm the safety and tolerability of BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab at the selected dose. Part B is a randomized phase that compares BNT113 plus pembrolizumab against pembrolizumab alone as first-line treatment. Patients in Part A continue their treatment without randomization. Treatments are given by intravenous injection or infusion, and patients may receive either combination therapy or monotherapy for up to 24 months. There is also an optional pre-screening phase to test tumor samples for HPV16 DNA and PD-L1 expression before entering the main trial. Participants undergo regular assessments including tumor measurements based on RECIST 1.1 criteria confirmed by independent review. Researchers monitor treatment-emergent adverse events for up to 27 months in Part A and evaluate overall survival and progression-free survival for up to 48 months in Part B. Tumor tissue samples are collected before treatment to confirm eligibility. The study involves ongoing safety monitoring and efficacy evaluations throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

The trial investigates the use of volrustomig in participants with unresected locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) who have not shown disease progression after receiving definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT). The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of volrustomig compared to observation in this patient population. Participants have tumors that express PD-L1 and the study is conducted as a Phase III, randomized, open-label, multi-center global trial. Participants are assigned to receive either volrustomig as sequential therapy following cCRT or to an observation group. The treatment period involves monitoring participants who have completed definitive cCRT but remain unresected and have no evidence of metastatic disease. The study focuses on participants with Stage III, IVA, or IVB LA-HNSCC according to AJCC criteria, who have not undergone tumor resection before cCRT and have not been treated with radiotherapy alone. During the study, participants are regularly evaluated for progression-free survival, with follow-up lasting up to approximately 8 years to assess long-term outcomes. Researchers will monitor safety and disease progression closely. The overall participation duration includes screening, treatment or observation, and extended follow-up to capture both efficacy and safety data over time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combining durvalumab and domvanalimab compared to durvalumab plus placebo in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has not worsened after definitive platinum-based concurrent chemoradiation therapy. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, international study involves multiple centers. Participants receive intravenous infusions of durvalumab and domvanalimab or durvalumab and placebo. The treatments are given after patients have completed concurrent platinum-based chemotherapy and radiation therapy with a total radiation dose of approximately 60 Gy. The study monitors patients over time to assess treatment effects and safety. During the study, participants undergo evaluations including tumor tissue analysis for PD-L1 status, performance status assessments, and monitoring of organ and marrow function. The main outcome measured is progression-free survival up to 8 years after randomization. Researchers also monitor for any adverse effects and disease progression throughout the study period.

Researchers are conducting a phase 3 open-label, randomized, controlled, multicenter study to compare petosemtamab with investigator's choice monotherapy in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) who have incurable metastatic or recurrent disease. This study focuses on patients with progressive disease after anti-PD-1 therapy and platinum-containing therapy and aims to evaluate the treatments as second- or third-line options. Participants will receive either petosemtamab or one of the investigator's choice monotherapies, including cetuximab, methotrexate, or docetaxel. The study involves treatment administration under controlled conditions with monitoring for efficacy and safety. The goal is to assess the treatments over time with a focus on response rates and overall survival. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including radiologic imaging to measure tumor response, and evaluations of overall survival up to approximately three years. The primary outcomes include objective response rate assessed by blinded independent central review and overall survival. Researchers will monitor patient health, side effects, and treatment effectiveness throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combining petosemtamab with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone as a first treatment for people with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1 positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This Phase 3, randomized, open-label study focuses on patients who have not received previous systemic therapy for incurable recurrent or metastatic disease, though prior therapy for locally advanced disease is allowed under certain conditions. The study excludes patients who have been treated with anti PD-(L)1 or anti-EGFR therapies except in specific cases. Participants will receive either the combination of petosemtamab plus pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab alone as their first-line treatment for this condition. The study includes detailed eligibility criteria based on tumor location, PD-L1 expression, health status, and prior treatments. Treatment effects will be observed over time with a focus on overall survival and tumor response rates measured according to standard criteria. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including tumor biopsies, imaging scans to measure disease progression, heart function tests, and evaluations of organ function. Safety and treatment response will be closely monitored up to approximately three years. The study also tracks overall survival and tumor response rate as primary outcomes, ensuring continuous follow-up and support throughout the trial period.

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.
