Researchers are evaluating orforglipron to measure its effects on cardiovascular outcomes in adults aged 50 and older who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD andor chronic kidney disease CKD. This phase 3 study aims to compare orforglipron with a placebo to better understand its impact on major cardiovascular events over about five years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either orforglipron orally along with standard care or a placebo orally along with standard care. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers will know who receives the active drug or placebo during the trial period. During the study, participants will be followed for around five years, with researchers monitoring the time to the first major cardiovascular event and additional outcomes such as cardiovascular and kidney events, changes in kidney function measured by eGFR, and the onset of type 2 diabetes. The study includes regular assessments to track these outcomes and ensure participant safety throughout the long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy of the drug RO7837195 compared to a placebo in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC who have not responded well to conventional or advanced treatments. This Phase IIb study aims to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical effects of RO7837195 in this patient group. The study is sponsored by Genentech, Inc. and focuses on treatment outcomes including clinical remission at Week 12. Participants undergo a screening period lasting up to 5 weeks, followed by a 12-week induction phase where some receive RO7837195 and others receive a placebo. After this, all participants enter a 40-week active treatment extension phase receiving RO7837195 regardless of their initial response. This design allows comparison during induction and continued treatment for all in the extension phase. Safety follow-up occurs after the last dose of study treatment. Throughout the trial, participants will be monitored for clinical remission, response, and endoscopic improvements at Week 12, as well as adverse events and drug concentration levels up to Week 65. The study includes regular evaluations such as clinical assessments and laboratory tests to track treatment effects and safety. Total participation can last up to approximately 57 weeks, covering screening, treatment, and follow-up periods.

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 studying the effects of ribupatide KAI-9531, given as a weekly subcutaneous injection, in adults living with obesity or overweight who also have type 2 diabetes. The main goal is to see if ribupatide is better than a placebo in reducing body weight and lowering hemoglobin A1c HbA1c, a key marker of blood sugar control. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating safety and efficacy. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of four doses of ribupatide or a matching placebo once weekly. The study compares the effects of these different doses over time, focusing on changes in weight and HbA1c levels at week 76. The intervention involves subcutaneous injections administered once a week, with multiple doses tested to evaluate their impact relative to placebo. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to measure changes in body weight, HbA1c, waist circumference, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, glucose, insulin, and quality of life related to weight. Safety assessments include tracking adverse events and immune responses to the drug. Blood samples will be collected to measure ribupatide concentrations. The study lasts up to 76 weeks, with ongoing monitoring for treatment effects and safety throughout this period.

This research evaluates the effects of ribupatide KAI-9531 given as a weekly subcutaneous injection compared to a placebo.

The study aims to understand how ribupatide influences body weight changes over time. Participants are randomly assigned to one of several groups receiving different doses of ribupatide once weekly or a matching placebo injection once weekly. The study is double-blind, so neither participants nor researchers know who receives the drug or placebo. Dosages range from Dose 1 to Dose 4, and the treatment period lasts up to 76 weeks. During the study, participants will have their body weight and various health indicators measured, including waist circumference, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, blood glucose, and quality of life related to weight. Safety is monitored by tracking adverse events and immune responses to the drug. The trial spans over approximately 76 weeks, with assessments at baseline and week 76 to evaluate changes and effects.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety of Deucravacitinib compared to Ustekinumab in adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. This Phase 3b4 study focuses on cardiovascular events and other health outcomes over an extended period, aiming to understand how these treatments impact patients with psoriasis who have cardiovascular risk factors. The study is led by Bristol-Myers Squibb and involves random assignment of participants to either treatment. Participants receive either Deucravacitinib or Ustekinumab at specified doses on scheduled days. The study is open-label, meaning both participants and researchers know which treatment is being given. This trial runs for up to 5 years, during which patients are monitored for cardiovascular safety and other health events related to their psoriasis treatment. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments to track major cardiovascular events like heart attacks, strokes, and hospitalizations, as well as monitoring for infections, cancer, and treatment side effects. Researchers collect data on liver function and lipid levels up to 60 days after the last dose. The long-term follow-up helps evaluate safety and health outcomes over several years, with study activities continuing until early 2031.

Researchers are evaluating maridebart cafraglutide as an additional treatment to standard care for adults with heart failure who have preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction, and who are also obese. This phase 3, global, multicenter trial aims to see if this drug can reduce heart failure events like hospitalizations and urgent visits, lower cardiovascular deaths, and improve heart failure symptoms. The study has a double-blind phase and an open-label extension, and it will continue until about 850 primary endpoint events occur. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either maridebart cafraglutide or a placebo, both given by subcutaneous injection. The trial lasts up to approximately 35 months and includes assessments at various time points to measure heart failure events, cardiovascular deaths, kidney function, blood pressure, weight, blood sugar, cholesterol, and quality of life using questionnaires. The study also tracks serious adverse events and drug concentrations. During the trial, participants will have regular visits for monitoring, including questionnaires, laboratory tests, and physical assessments. Researchers will evaluate the time to first cardiovascular events and heart failure hospitalizations as the main outcome. Secondary measures include changes in symptoms, kidney health, blood pressure, and metabolic factors. Safety will be monitored throughout, with follow-up continuing up to about 35 months from the start of treatment.

This trial is a rollover study for adults who previously participated in specific Incyte-sponsored clinical trials involving the drug povorcitinib. It focuses on people with Hidradenitis Suppurativa HS, a condition being studied to better understand the long-term safety and effects of continuing povorcitinib treatment. The purpose is to monitor participants who have already benefited from povorcitinib in earlier studies, now entering an extended phase to further evaluate safety and treatment outcomes. Participants will continue taking povorcitinib orally, following the same dose and schedule they had in their original parent study. This study does not test new doses or compare treatments but observes continued use of the drug under the established regimen. The study may last for up to approximately three years, reflecting extended monitoring rather than initial treatment phases. During the study, participants will attend scheduled visits for assessments, including tracking any treatment-emergent adverse events and measuring symptom counts related to HS. Researchers will collect safety data over the long term and observe clinical responses. Participants must adhere to study procedures and avoid pregnancy or fathering children as required. The study aims to provide detailed safety information over an extended period while participants remain on the drug regimen from their original trial.

Researchers are evaluating whether adding zilebesiran to standard antihypertensive treatment can reduce major cardiovascular events in adults with hypertension that is not well controlled and who either have established cardiovascular disease or are at high risk for it. This phase 3, randomized, double-blind study aims to determine if zilebesiran lowers the risk of cardiovascular death, heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure events compared to placebo. The study will continue until a targeted number of these events have occurred, which may take up to about 5 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 300 mg of zilebesiran or a placebo, both given as subcutaneous injections every 6 months, alongside their usual blood pressure medications. The study uses a parallel design and includes careful monitoring of blood pressure and cardiovascular events over time. Both groups will continue their standard antihypertensive therapies, including at least two medications where one must be a diuretic. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, heart failure hospitalizations, and cardiovascular death. Blood pressure measurements will be taken at baseline and at 6 months, among other times. The primary outcome is the time until the first occurrence of a major cardiovascular event, with secondary outcomes including changes in blood pressure and other cardiovascular events. Participants will be followed for up to approximately 5 years to monitor these outcomes and overall survival.
