Researchers are evaluating the effects of enicepatide, a dual GLP-1GIP receptor agonist, at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight who do not have Type 2 diabetes. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind study aims to assess both the efficacy and safety of once-weekly enicepatide in this population, addressing weight-related comorbidities such as prediabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular conditions. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or one of three enicepatide dosing regimens, administered once weekly via an integrated drug-device combination product. The treatment phase lasts through 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures are monitored. The study includes multiple assessments to track body weight percentage change, waist circumference, fasting glucose and insulin levels, lipid profiles, blood pressure, and quality of life measures. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including physical examinations, laboratory tests, and questionnaires related to physical functioning and urinary incontinence. Researchers will monitor adverse events, patient-reported health questionnaires, and biomarkers at baseline and weekly intervals through week 72. This long-term follow-up allows for a comprehensive assessment of treatment effects and safety in participants managing obesity or overweight without Type 2 diabetes.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of three different dose regimens of MORF-057, a small molecule drug, in adults with moderately to severely active Crohns disease CD. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study aims to compare these doses with a matching placebo during an induction treatment period. The study includes adult participants who have active symptoms of CD and have not adequately responded to other treatments. Participants will first undergo a 14-week induction period where they receive either one of the three blinded MORF-057 dose regimens or a matching placebo, all taken orally. Following this, all participants enter a 38-week maintenance period receiving open-label MORF-057. Those who complete this 52-week treatment phase may have the chance to continue treatment for an additional 52 weeks during a long-term extension. MORF-057 is designed to selectively inhibit integrin 47. During the study, participants will have their disease activity monitored using endoscopic assessments and clinical symptom scores, such as the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohns Disease SES-CD and the Crohns Disease Activity Index CDAI. Researchers will assess the proportion of participants showing endoscopic response and clinical remission at Week 14. Safety and adherence will be closely followed throughout the treatment and extension phases. The entire study spans up to 6 years, allowing for long-term evaluation.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the drugs eltrekibart and mirikizumab in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. This Phase 2 study aims to find out how these treatments work alone or in combination to improve UC symptoms and health. The study is sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company and will last about 4 to 5 years, including screening. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of several treatments eltrekibart with a placebo, mirikizumab with a placebo, both drugs together, or placebo alone. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment is given to ensure unbiased results. The treatment period includes dosing with the study drugs or placebo, and participants will be monitored for safety and response. Participants will be involved in the trial for around 69 weeks, including a screening period of up to 35 days before starting treatment. Throughout the study, they will undergo assessments to measure clinical remission, response, endoscopic improvement, and quality of life using questionnaires. Blood samples will be taken to study drug levels, and researchers will monitor safety and disease activity regularly. The main outcome is the percentage of participants achieving clinical remission at Week 12, with additional measures assessed up to Week 52.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of several long-acting antibody treatments for adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC. This Phase 2, multicenter platform study aims to compare multiple investigational therapies, including both single agents and combinations, to better understand their potential benefits and risks. The study is sponsored by Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. and involves adults aged 18 to 75 years with active UC confirmed by endoscopy and histology.

Researchers are evaluating whether combining vedolizumab and upadacitinib, called dual targeted therapy DTT, reduces bowel inflammation and ulcers more effectively than vedolizumab alone in adults with moderately to severely active Crohns Disease CD. The study also compares the safety and effectiveness of these treatments. This Phase 3b trial is conducted worldwide and sponsored by Takeda, enrolling about 396 participants. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either vedolizumab with upadacitinib or vedolizumab with a placebo for 12 weeks during the Induction Phase. Vedolizumab is given as a 300 mg intravenous infusion at Weeks 0, 2, 6, and 10 upadacitinib or placebo is taken daily by mouth. Those who respond to treatment at Week 12 will continue with vedolizumab alone every 8 weeks for 40 weeks in the Maintenance Phase. Vedolizumab dosing frequency may increase to every 4 weeks if needed. During the approximately 70-week study, participants visit the clinic 15 times for assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and patient-reported outcomes. Researchers measure clinical remission, endoscopic response, and safety outcomes at Week 12 and Week 52. There is also an 18-week safety follow-up after the maintenance period to monitor participants health.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of TAK-279 in treating adults with moderately to severely active Crohns disease, a long-lasting condition causing inflammation in any part of the gut. This Phase 2b study aims to see if three different doses of TAK-279 can reduce bowel inflammation and ulcers compared to a placebo after 12 weeks of treatment. The study also compares medical problems experienced by participants taking TAK-279 or placebo and how well they tolerate these issues. An endoscopy will be used to assess bowel inflammation. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups three groups receiving different doses of TAK-279 capsules and one group receiving placebo capsules. The treatment period lasts 52 weeks one year, followed by a 4-week safety follow-up. TAK-279 and placebo capsules are taken orally, and the study is conducted at multiple global centers. Treatment groups remain undisclosed to participants and doctors unless urgent medical needs arise. During the study, participants will visit the clinic 15 times for assessments, including endoscopies to check for bowel inflammation. Researchers will measure responses such as endoscopic improvement based on the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohns Disease at week 12 and other clinical remission and response indicators. Quality of life and fatigue levels will also be evaluated. The total study duration is about 60 weeks, including treatment and follow-up.

Researchers are studying finerenone to evaluate its safety and effectiveness in patients hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failure who have mildly reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. This international trial is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, focusing on how finerenone compares to placebo in reducing heart failure events and cardiovascular death. Participants receive either oral finerenone or a matching placebo while hospitalized or recently discharged for heart failure. The study monitors patients over approximately 30 months to assess the total heart failure events, cardiovascular death, and adverse events related to the treatment. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments including symptom scoring using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire, monitoring for serious adverse events, and evaluation of heart failure outcomes. The study tracks safety and efficacy data over the long term, with follow-up visits scheduled to measure the impact of treatment on morbidity and mortality in heart failure patients.

Researchers are evaluating finerenone compared to a placebo to assess the effectiveness and safety of treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction HFrEF who cannot tolerate or are not eligible for steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists sMRA. This international study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial focused on this specific group of heart failure patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral finerenone or a matching placebo. The study uses a parallel design and treatment will be monitored for up to about 30 months. During this time, researchers will track cardiovascular events, heart failure events, and any serious or adverse events leading to discontinuation of the study drug. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including symptom questionnaires and monitoring for cardiovascular outcomes and safety. The main outcomes include the time to the first cardiovascular death or heart failure event and the number of serious adverse events. The study also tracks changes in symptom scores over six months and overall survival. Participants will be followed closely during treatment and after to understand both efficacy and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of tulisokibart in participants with moderately to severely active Crohns disease. This program includes two studies Study 1 involves both induction and maintenance treatment phases, while Study 2 focuses only on induction treatment. The main goal is to determine if one or more doses of tulisokibart are more effective than placebo in achieving clinical remission and endoscopic response at various time points up to Week 52. Participants are randomly assigned to receive different dosing regimens of tulisokibart or placebo. These regimens include high or low doses administered intravenously followed by subcutaneous injections, or subcutaneous injections alone. Some participants may continue in an extension phase receiving subcutaneous doses after completing their original treatment arm if they meet specific requirements. The studies use a double-blind design to compare tulisokibarts effects against placebo. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments to measure clinical remission, endoscopic response, and other health outcomes using tools like the Crohns Disease Activity Index and stool frequency with abdominal pain scores. Safety evaluations include monitoring adverse events and treatment discontinuations. The studies last up to 52 weeks for Study 1 and 12 weeks for Study 2, with multiple visits to assess treatment effects and participant health under medical supervision.
