Researchers are evaluating if combining the medicines calderasib and subcutaneous pembrolizumab can more effectively treat people with non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that has a KRAS G12C mutation. The study aims to find out whether patients receiving calderasib with pembrolizumab live longer without their cancer growing or spreading compared to those receiving pembrolizumab with chemotherapy. This is a Phase 3 clinical trial focusing on first-line treatment for advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC. Participants are assigned to one of two groups. One group receives subcutaneous pembrolizumab plus berahyaluronidase alfa every 6 weeks for up to 18 cycles about 2 years along with oral calderasib until treatment discontinuation criteria are met. The other group receives the same pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa regimen plus chemotherapy with pemetrexed and either carboplatin or cisplatin infusions during the early cycles. Treatment continues based on individual response and tolerability. During the study, participants will have regular visits for treatment and monitoring. Researchers will assess progression-free survival, overall survival, response rates, and quality of life using questionnaires and symptom scores over several years. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting. The trial lasts up to about 7 years with ongoing evaluation of health outcomes and side effects to understand the impact of these treatment combinations.

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.

Researchers are comparing two treatment combinations for adults with advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that have a specific KRAS p.G12C mutation and are negative for PD-L1 expression. The study aims to evaluate progression-free survival and overall survival between participants receiving sotorasib with platinum doublet chemotherapy and those receiving pembrolizumab with platinum doublet chemotherapy. This phase 3, randomized, open-label trial is led by Amgen and includes participants with stage IV or advanced stage IIIBC NSCLC. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either sotorasib orally combined with carboplatin and pemetrexed, or pembrolizumab intravenously combined with the same chemotherapy drugs. These treatments are given as front-line therapy. The study includes a treatment period with these drug combinations and monitoring for outcomes such as response rates and quality of life over several years. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed through various measures including survival status, tumor response, and quality-of-life questionnaires focusing on lung cancer symptoms. Researchers will monitor safety by tracking adverse events, vital signs, and laboratory tests. Treatment concentrations of sotorasib will also be measured up to 64 days after starting. The total study duration includes follow-up for up to approximately 5.5 years to fully evaluate treatment effects and outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the combination of adagrasib, pembrolizumab, and platinum-doublet chemotherapy compared to placebo plus pembrolizumab and platinum-doublet chemotherapy in adults with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC carrying the KRAS G12C mutation. This Phase 3 trial aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of these treatment combinations in this specific patient group. Participants will receive either adagrasib plus pembrolizumab combined with platinum-doublet chemotherapy or placebo plus pembrolizumab and platinum-doublet chemotherapy. Treatments involve specified doses administered on scheduled days, with the chemotherapy consisting of carboplatin or cisplatin along with pemetrexed. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the two study groups and treatments are blinded to ensure unbiased assessment. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including imaging scans to measure tumor response and progression-free survival, as well as assessments of overall survival. Safety is closely monitored by recording adverse events for up to 90 days after the last dose. Quality of life and symptom assessments are also conducted using validated questionnaires. The study duration includes follow-up for up to seven years to gather comprehensive data on treatment outcomes and participant health.

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 efficacy and safety of iza-bren, a bi-specific antibody-drug conjugate targeting EGFR and HER3 with a chemotherapy payload, compared to treatment chosen by physicians including paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, carboplatin plus gemcitabine, and capecitabine for patients with first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer TNBC or low estrogen receptor ER-low, HER2-negative breast cancer who cannot receive anti-PDL1 or endocrine therapies. This study includes adults with locally advanced, recurrent inoperable, or metastatic disease who meet specific eligibility criteria. Participants are randomly assigned to receive iza-bren or one of the physicians choice chemotherapy regimens. The treatments are given at specified doses on scheduled days.

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 whether sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or combined with pembrolizumab can treat people with triple-negative breast cancer TNBC that is locally recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic. The study aims to determine if these treatments help participants live longer overall or without their cancer growing or spreading compared to chemotherapy chosen by their physician. This is a phase 3, randomized, open-label trial focusing on patients whose tumors express PD-L1 at less than 10 combined positive score CPS. Participants are assigned to one of three groups. One group receives sacituzumab tirumotecan intravenously every two weeks until disease progression, toxicity, or stopping treatment. Another group gets the same sacituzumab tirumotecan schedule plus pembrolizumab intravenously every six weeks for up to about two years. The third group receives the physicians choice of chemotherapy, which may include paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, or gemcitabine plus carboplatin, given intravenously on various schedules until disease progression, toxicity, or discontinuation. Pre-medications are given before sacituzumab tirumotecan to help manage side effects. Participants will be monitored for how long they live without their cancer worsening and overall survival, with follow-up lasting up to around 61 months. Researchers will assess treatment response, quality of life using questionnaires, and physical and emotional functioning. Safety will be closely tracked by recording adverse events and treatment discontinuations. The total participation time depends on treatment duration and follow-up assessments.
