Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Datopotamab Deruxtecan Dato-DXd with or without Durvalumab compared to investigators choice chemotherapy combined with Pembrolizumab in patients with PD-L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer TNBC. This Phase III, randomized, open-label, international study aims to determine if Dato-DXd with Durvalumab can improve progression-free survival and overall survival while assessing quality of life impacts in this patient population. Participants are assigned to one of three groups Dato-DXd with Durvalumab, investigators choice chemotherapy paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, or gemcitabine plus carboplatin combined with Pembrolizumab, or Dato-DXd alone. All study drugs are given by intravenous infusion. The study includes stratification by geographic region, disease-free interval, and prior PD-1PD-L1 treatment. Treatment continues with monitoring up to about 33 months for progression-free survival and safety, with some outcomes followed up to 64 months. Throughout the study, participants undergo assessments including imaging to measure tumor response using RECIST criteria, laboratory tests, and questionnaires to evaluate symptoms and quality of life. Researchers monitor time to disease progression, overall survival, response duration, and safety outcomes. Follow-up includes evaluation of subsequent therapies and pharmacokinetics. The total participation duration can be up to several years to capture long-term outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating insulin icodec, a once-weekly insulin injection, compared to insulin glargine, a once-daily injection. This study focuses on adults with type 1 diabetes to see how well the weekly insulin controls blood sugar when combined with insulin aspart, which is taken 2 to 4 times daily. The trial aims to assess blood sugar control over about 8.5 months. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either insulin icodec once a week with insulin aspart daily or insulin glargine once a day with insulin aspart daily. Both insulins are given as subcutaneous injections. The study is designed as a parallel comparison to evaluate the effects of these insulin regimens on blood sugar control. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including blood tests to measure HbA1c and glucose levels, monitoring of hypoglycemic episodes, and tracking of insulin doses and body weight. The primary outcome is the change in HbA1c from baseline to week 26. Secondary outcomes include time spent in target glucose ranges and frequency of low blood sugar events. The study will last about 8.5 months with ongoing monitoring to evaluate treatment effects and safety.

This research aims to evaluate whether administering XEMBIFY every two weeks alongside Standard Medical Treatment SMT over a one-year period can reduce the number of major bacterial infections each year in adults with low antibody levels hypogammaglobulinemia who have B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia CLL, Multiple Myeloma MM, or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma NHL. The study compares this treatment to a placebo plus SMT to determine its impact on infection rates. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives a loading dose of XEMBIFY subcutaneously at 150 mgkgday for five consecutive days starting in Week 1, followed by biweekly doses of 300 mgkg until Week 51. The other group receives a placebo injection on the same schedule. Both groups continue to receive the standard medical treatments and supportive care they require throughout the study. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including monitoring the frequency of infections, hospitalizations, and antibiotic use. Researchers will measure the annual rate of major bacterial infections and track the time to first infection among other outcomes up to Week 51. Participants are observed closely throughout the treatment year to evaluate safety and effectiveness, with the entire study lasting approximately one year per participant.

Researchers are evaluating the combined use of vicadrostat and empagliflozin in adults with chronic heart failure who have a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction LVEF below 40%. Participants must have had chronic heart failure diagnosed at least three months before starting the study. The trial aims to find out if this combination helps people with symptomatic heart failure classified as New York Heart Association classes II to IV. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups, with an equal chance of receiving either vicadrostat plus empagliflozin tablets or placebo plus empagliflozin tablets. The study medicines are taken once daily for approximately six months up to about 3.5 years. During this time, participants may continue their usual heart failure treatments, excluding certain medications. The trial includes a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor study staff know who receives the active drug or placebo. Throughout the study, participants visit the study site regularly, with the number of visits depending on how long they stay enrolled. Some visits may occur by phone. They answer questions about their well-being, and doctors monitor health status, record any heart failure worsening, hospitalizations, or deaths. The main outcome is the time until cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or urgent heart failure visit, which is compared between groups. Safety and side effects are also closely followed during the trial.

Researchers are evaluating whether the combination of vicadrostat BI 690517 and empagliflozin helps adults with heart failure who have symptoms and a left ventricular ejection fraction LVEF of 40% or more. This phase III study is designed to compare the effects of vicadrostatempagliflozin tablets versus placeboempagliflozin tablets on heart failure outcomes. The study aims to understand if this combined treatment improves health and reduces heart-related events. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one group takes vicadrostat plus empagliflozin tablets once a day, and the other takes placebo plus empagliflozin tablets once a day. The study has no fixed duration and continues as long as participants benefit and tolerate the treatment. Throughout the study, participants visit their doctors regularly for health checks, and study staff may also contact them by phone to monitor well-being and any side effects. During the study, researchers monitor participants health through regular doctor visits and phone contacts. They collect data on heart-related events such as cardiovascular death, hospitalizations for heart failure, and urgent visits for heart failure over up to 42 months. Participants also answer questions about their symptoms and well-being. The study carefully tracks safety and treatment tolerance while gathering information to determine if the combined treatment helps people with heart failure.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of DPX-Survivac combined with pembrolizumab, with and without low-dose cyclophosphamide CPA, in adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma DLBCL. This Phase 2b, randomized, open-label study aims to better understand how these treatments work in this group of patients who have had previous therapies. The study is sponsored by ImmunoVaccine Technologies, Inc. IMV Inc.. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one group receives DPX-Survivac, pembrolizumab, and intermittent low-dose CPA, while the other group receives DPX-Survivac and pembrolizumab without CPA. DPX-Survivac is given as two 0.5 mL doses three weeks apart on days 7 and 28, followed by up to twelve 0.1 mL doses every eight weeks. Pembrolizumab is administered intravenously at 200 mg on day 7 and then every three weeks. In the CPA group, subjects take 50 mg of oral CPA twice daily for 7 days followed by 7 days off, repeating this cycle throughout the treatment period. During the study, participants will undergo assessments to monitor tumor response and safety for about 24 months, with some measures extending up to 48 months. Researchers will evaluate objective response rates, adverse events, duration and time to response, progression-free survival, and disease control rates. Patient-reported outcomes will be collected using specific questionnaires. The study involves regular visits for treatment administration, tumor biopsies, and laboratory tests to track the participants health and treatment effects over time.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose FCM compared with a placebo on death risk, heart failure events, NT-proBNP levels, and quality of life in patients who recently had an acute myocardial infarction AMI and have iron deficiency. This phase 4, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to assess these outcomes over a follow-up period ranging from 8 to 36 months. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either an intravenous 15-minute infusion of 1000 mg FCM diluted in saline or a placebo infusion of saline alone. The first dose is given on the day of randomization, with follow-up visits at 4, 8, 12, 18, 24, and 30 months to reassess participants and possibly repeat treatment if safety criteria are met. During the study, participants undergo evaluations including monitoring of death rates, heart failure events such as unplanned hospitalizations or emergency visits, changes in NT-proBNP concentration, and quality of life measured by the EQ-5D questionnaire. Safety and treatment effects are tracked throughout the follow-up period, which can last up to 36 months from the start of participation.

Researchers are studying maridebart cafraglutide to evaluate its effect on reducing cardiovascular problems and death in people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease who are also overweight or obese. This Phase 3 trial compares maridebart cafraglutide to a placebo, both given alongside standard care, to see if maridebart cafraglutide works better in lowering heart-related risks. Participants will receive either maridebart cafraglutide or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection. The study lasts for up to approximately 35 months, during which researchers monitor several heart and health outcomes. These include heart attacks, strokes, death rates, hospitalizations, blood pressure, body measurements, blood sugar control, cholesterol levels, kidney function, and inflammatory markers. During the trial, participants will have regular assessments including physical exams, blood tests, and monitoring of heart events. Researchers track the time to first major heart-related events and changes in health markers over the study period. Safety is also monitored by recording any adverse events. The total participation time can last nearly three years, allowing careful observation of the effects of the study drug compared to placebo.

Researchers are analyzing outcomes from patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention PCI for coronary artery disease involving bifurcation lesions. The study compares two different two-stent techniques the Culotte technique and the Double Kiss DK Culotte technique. This retrospective study uses data collected from two high-volume cardiac centers in the Lower Silesia Region between April 2012 and January 2024. The choice of which stent technique to use was made by the treating physician based on clinical and angiographic factors, with no restrictions on lesion characteristics. Patients included had bifurcation lesions treated with either the classical Culotte technique or the DK-Culotte technique, which involves an additional balloon dilation step after side branch stenting. The study groups consist of patients treated with one of these two stenting methods. The PCI was performed following standard clinical indications, with all patients informed about treatment options and risks before consenting. Patients who had previous stenting of the same bifurcation lesion before the procedure were excluded. Participants outcomes are monitored retrospectively over a 5-year period following their initial hospital stay. The primary outcome measured is target lesion failure, with evaluations every 6 months after hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes include major adverse cardiac events MACE. This long-term follow-up allows researchers to assess the safety and effectiveness of the two-stent techniques over time using clinical records and data analysis.

This research focuses on patients with moderately to severely calcified lesions in their coronary arteries who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention PCI. The study aims to collect data on the safety and effectiveness of PCI when supported by the Orbital Atherectomy Device. Patients are selected based on clinical indication according to current European Society of Cardiology guidelines and the presence of significant calcification assessed by angiography or intravascular imaging techniques like IVUS or OCT. The study involves patients treated at two cardiac centers in Poland where the decision to use the Orbital Atherectomy Device during PCI is made by the operator based on lesion characteristics. Moderate calcification is defined as involving 30% to 50% of the lesion diameter, while severe calcification involves more than 50%. The procedure details, including additional lesion preparation, stent implantation, medication, and imaging use, are determined by the treating physician. All patients give informed consent after being advised about treatment options and risks. Participants will be monitored at discharge up to 10 days to assess clinical success and any treatment-emergent adverse events. Long-term follow-up includes evaluation of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events for up to five years after hospitalization, with assessments every six months. The study collects comprehensive data on treatment outcomes and safety during and after the procedure, supporting ongoing patient care and research.
