Researchers are investigating the drug bezuclastinib in an open-label, two-part Phase 2 study for patients with Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis (AdvSM), including Aggressive Systemic Mastocytosis (ASM), Systemic Mastocytosis with an Associated Hematologic Neoplasm (SM-AHN), and Mast Cell Leukemia (MCL). The study aims to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and how the drug behaves in the body for these serious conditions. Bezuclastinib is given orally as tablets taken continuously in 28-day cycles. The study has two parts: Part I focuses on identifying safe and tolerable doses of bezuclastinib over 18 months, while Part II evaluates its effectiveness by measuring the objective response rate and confirming the relationship between drug exposure and response during another 18-month period. Participants will undergo assessments including clinical evaluations, laboratory tests, and monitoring of their disease status to determine treatment effects and safety. Researchers will track the drug's impact on the disease and patient health throughout the study, which involves continuous treatment and follow-up over the specified time frames.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of delgocitinib cream 20 mg/g applied twice daily compared to a cream vehicle in treating adults with mild to severe palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP). This phase 2a, double-blind, two-arm trial focuses on adults diagnosed with PPP, a condition characterized by persistent pustules on the palms and/or soles, lasting more than three months. The study aims to assess skin improvement using the PPP Area and Severity Index (PPPASI) and other clinical evaluations over 16 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to apply either delgocitinib cream or the cream vehicle twice daily during a 16-week treatment period. The study involves approximately 9 visits over about 18 weeks in total. The trial is designed to compare the two treatments' effects on PPP severity, with a thorough monitoring process throughout the study period. During the trial, participants will undergo clinical assessments including photographic evaluations to confirm PPP diagnosis, PPPASI scoring to measure skin improvement, and physician global assessments. Safety and treatment adherence will be closely monitored. The main outcome measure is the number of participants achieving at least a 75% improvement in PPPASI score from baseline at week 16. The study also includes safety checks and follow-up to ensure participant well-being throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating tulisokibart as a potential treatment for radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA), a type of arthritis causing pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the spine and pelvis joints, visible on X-rays. This Phase 2b study aims to determine if different doses of tulisokibart improve symptoms better than a placebo, which looks like the study medicine but contains no active drug. The study has two main parts: a 16-week placebo-controlled period where participants receive either tulisokibart or placebo through subcutaneous injections, followed by a 124-week long-term extension divided into a 40-week main extension and an 84-week optional extension. This allows researchers to assess both the short-term and longer-term effects and safety of tulisokibart. Participants will be monitored for their response using the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS) 40 response at week 16 as the primary outcome. Throughout the study, researchers will evaluate disease activity and safety while tracking symptoms and any side effects. The total involvement spans up to 140 weeks, including both initial treatment and extension phases.

Researchers are investigating new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a condition where current therapies like methotrexate (MTX) may not fully control symptoms for many people. This Phase 2b study evaluates a medicine called tulisokibart to see if it can better reduce RA symptoms in individuals already taking MTX. The trial aims to determine if one or more doses of tulisokibart work better than a placebo, which looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. The study includes a 12-week period where participants receive either tulisokibart or a placebo by subcutaneous injection while continuing their MTX treatment, which can be given by injection or orally. Following this, there is a long-term extension lasting 116 weeks, composed of a 44-week main extension and a 72-week optional extension, to further assess the medication's effects and safety over time. Participants will undergo assessments to measure treatment response, including the American College of Rheumatology 20% response criteria at week 12 to gauge symptom improvement. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor for safety and effectiveness, with evaluations extending through the long-term extension periods, totaling over two years of participation.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Xeomin injections in preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3 clinical trial compares Xeomin to placebo injections given into muscles of the head and neck. Participants have chronic migraine diagnosed for at least 12 months and meet specific headache and migraine day criteria. The study aims to measure changes in monthly migraine days over time with Xeomin treatment. Participants will receive four treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. The treatments involve injections of either Xeomin or placebo solution prepared with sodium chloride. Visits occur approximately every 4 weeks, totaling 14 visits: the first, last, and four treatment visits are on-site, while the other eight visits are remote via phone or video call. During the study, participants will keep headache diaries to track migraine and headache days. Researchers will focus on the change in monthly migraine days from baseline to six months after the first injection. Safety and effectiveness are monitored throughout, with frequent assessments during both on-site and remote visits to ensure accurate tracking of migraine symptoms and any side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing episodic migraine. This phase 3 clinical trial focuses on adults who experience episodic migraine, aiming to measure changes in the number of migraine days per month. Participants must have a diagnosis of episodic migraine for at least 12 months and meet specific headache frequency criteria. Participants will receive four treatments of either Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck, with treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart. The entire trial lasts approximately 52 to 55 weeks, beginning with a screening period of 4 to 5 weeks. There are about 14 visits in total, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted on-site, while the other visits are held remotely via phone or video. Throughout the study, participants will track their migraine days using a headache diary, and researchers will assess changes in monthly migraine frequency from baseline to six months after the first injection. Regular monitoring includes both in-person and remote assessments. The primary outcome focuses on the change in monthly migraine days between baseline and month six after treatment initiation.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and effectiveness of TAK-279 (also called Zasocitinib) in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease or Ulcerative Colitis, which are serious inflammatory bowel diseases causing pain and swelling in the intestines. This study is an extension of two earlier phase 2 trials where participants who responded to TAK-279 may continue to receive treatment. The goal is to understand how well TAK-279 controls bowel inflammation and symptoms when used for up to two years. Participants will receive oral Zasocitinib capsules for up to 108 weeks. During this time, they will attend 11 visits at their study clinic for treatment and monitoring. This open-label extension study focuses on long-term safety, tolerability, and sustained response in those who showed improvement in the initial parent trials. Throughout the study, researchers will track the number of participants experiencing treatment-related side effects, significant changes in vital signs, lab tests, and ECG results. Participants' symptoms and inflammation will be regularly assessed to monitor TAK-279's ongoing effects. The study includes safety monitoring from the start of treatment to week 112, with careful attention to any adverse events or important changes in health measurements.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of dazodalibep in adults with Sjögren's Syndrome. This phase 3 open-label extension study focuses on participants who have previously received dazodalibep or placebo in earlier phase 3 trials and completed those studies through Week 48. Participants will receive dazodalibep intravenously during this long-term extension study. The first dose is administered around Week 48 (+28 days) following the prior phase 3 studies. The study monitors safety and tolerability over an extended period to assess treatment-emergent adverse events up to 152 weeks. During the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations to monitor their health and any side effects. Researchers will collect data on adverse events that emerge during treatment. The overall goal is to gather long-term safety information to better understand how participants tolerate dazodalibep when used over an extended time frame.

Researchers are investigating the long-term safety and effectiveness of APG777, a treatment for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), in patients who have already completed an initial APG777 study. This phase 2, multicenter, double-blind study focuses on those who may benefit from extended treatment with APG777 to better understand its ongoing effects and safety over time. The study includes three main periods: a screening visit that occurs at the end of the previous study's maintenance period, an extended treatment period where participants receive APG777 subcutaneous injections every 12 or 24 weeks, and a post-treatment follow-up period. Participants will continue using their chosen non-medicated moisturizer from the previous study throughout this extension. During the study, participants' health and response to treatment will be closely monitored, including tracking any treatment-emergent adverse events for up to three years. Researchers will assess the long-term safety and efficacy of APG777 while ensuring participants remain compliant with study protocols. This ongoing observation aims to provide detailed information on how APG777 affects patients over extended use.

Researchers are studying adults with confirmed Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and cirrhosis, a scarring of the liver caused by damage to bile ducts. PBC is a slowly progressing disease that causes bile acid buildup and further liver damage, which can lead to cirrhosis. This study aims to evaluate if elafibranor, a daily medication, can prevent worsening clinical outcomes such as the need for liver transplant or death, compared to a placebo. It also looks at the safety of long-term elafibranor use and its effect on symptoms like itching and tiredness. Participants will take either an 80 mg tablet of elafibranor or a matching placebo once daily for up to 3.5 years in a double-blind setup, meaning neither the participants nor researchers know who receives which treatment. This long-term treatment period is designed to monitor the drug's impact over time. The study includes two groups: one receiving elafibranor and the other receiving placebo, with treatment lasting up to approximately 42 months. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed from the start until 4 weeks after treatment ends, with a maximum involvement of 3.5 years. Researchers will measure event-free survival, tracking if participants avoid clinical events indicating disease worsening. Safety monitoring will include tracking side effects and overall health, while symptom impact will be evaluated. Participants will provide informed consent and follow the study protocol throughout this extended observation period.
