Researchers are investigating whether ziltivekimab can treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. The study compares ziltivekimab, a new medicine not yet approved anywhere, to a placebo, an inactive substance that looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. Participants have an equal chance of receiving either treatment. The study is expected to last up to one year and four months and focuses on people with heart failure who also have systemic inflammation. Participants will receive either ziltivekimab or placebo by monthly injections under the skin. The doses are given once a month throughout the study period. The study lasts for 12 months of treatment following randomization, during which the effects of the medicine compared to placebo will be closely monitored. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including a heart failure questionnaire called the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) to measure symptoms and physical function over the 12 months. Other evaluations may include walking tests and heart function tests. Safety and health will be monitored regularly to understand how participants respond to the treatments and to track any side effects or changes in heart failure symptoms.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of IPN10200, a medication designed to prevent episodic and chronic migraines in adults aged 18 to 80. Migraines cause severe throbbing pain often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light and sound, caused by brain activation releasing pain-related chemicals. IPN10200 works by stopping the release of these chemical messengers, and this phase II study aims to find the right dose that balances safety and efficacy. The study has three periods: first, a screening to check eligibility; second, Step 1 where two different doses of IPN10200 are tested sequentially in two groups, with injections given into muscles of the head, face, and neck and safety monitored over 36 weeks; third, Step 2 where new participants with episodic or chronic migraine are randomly assigned to receive one of two doses or a placebo, also via injections in the same areas, with monitoring continuing until Week 36. Participants will complete a daily electronic migraine diary and questionnaires throughout the study lasting up to 44 weeks. Researchers will monitor safety by tracking adverse events, laboratory changes, vital signs, facial exams, ECG readings, and antibody development. They will also measure changes in monthly migraine days to evaluate treatment effectiveness while ensuring participant safety throughout the study.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effects of the study medicine PF-07328948 for adults with heart failure. It focuses on how this medicine works compared to a placebo in people who are already using standard heart failure treatments that include sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. The trial is a Phase 2 study designed to better understand if PF-07328948 is safe and effective for managing heart failure symptoms and improving patients' health. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo tablets or one of three doses of PF-07328948 (low, medium, or high dose). All medications are taken once daily by mouth for 36 weeks. The treatment period is followed by ongoing study visits to monitor participants. The study involves 15 visits over about 48 weeks, with 10 visits at the study site and 5 visits conducted remotely by phone. During the study, researchers will assess participants at the start and after 36 weeks by measuring clinical events, changes in the six-minute walk test distance, and changes in heart failure symptoms using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. Safety and treatment effects will be closely monitored through these visits and assessments throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating whether ziltivekimab can help people who were hospitalized due to a heart attack by potentially reducing the development of heart disease and preventing new heart attacks or strokes. This Phase 3 study compares ziltivekimab with a placebo, which is a dummy medicine that has no effect on the body. Both treatments are given by chance, with equal likelihood for participants to receive either ziltivekimab or placebo. Participants will inject the study medicine once a month under the skin in the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. Ziltivekimab is given as an initial loading dose followed by monthly maintenance doses. The placebo group receives a matching injection schedule. The study duration is about two years. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for the time until the first serious heart-related event, including cardiovascular death, non-fatal heart attack, or non-fatal stroke. Participants will be closely observed from the start of randomization up to 25 months. The study includes regular follow-ups to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatments throughout this period.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety of two drugs, Deucravacitinib and Ustekinumab, in adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. This Phase 3b/4 study focuses on participants who are candidates for phototherapy or systemic treatment and have specific cardiovascular risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, or a family history of heart disease. Participants will receive either Deucravacitinib or Ustekinumab at specified doses on set days. This open-label, randomized study compares these treatments over an extended period to monitor their safety profiles, including cardiovascular health. Throughout the study, researchers will track major adverse cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, strokes, and related procedures, for up to five years. Participants will undergo regular assessments to monitor their psoriasis and cardiovascular status, ensuring comprehensive safety evaluation during the long-term treatment.

This research aims to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and clinical results of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusions (CTO) in patients treated in routine clinical practice in Poland. It focuses on rates of procedural success, complications, different PCI strategies and techniques, and the impact of artificial intelligence-based analysis on predicting outcomes and quality of life. The study includes a variety of patient subgroups, including those at higher risk due to conditions like low ejection fraction or diabetes. Patients receiving CTO PCI as part of their usual medical care will be enrolled in a national, multicenter registry. The study will observe different treatment strategies such as drug-coated balloons, drug-eluting stents, and hybrid approaches. It will also assess the use of intravascular imaging and mechanical circulatory support during PCI, examining how these factors relate to clinical outcomes. Participants will have clinical, procedural, and follow-up data collected to assess real-world results. Researchers will monitor procedural success within one day and track complications and cardiac injury markers after treatment. The study will analyze quality-of-life improvements and outcomes in high-risk groups over time, providing a comprehensive view of CTO PCI in contemporary practice.
