Researchers are evaluating the pharmacokinetics, safety, and immune response of two treatments, RPH-030 and Vectibix®, in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have wild-type RAS genes. This phase I, multicenter, double-blind, randomized study aims to demonstrate that these treatments have equivalent pharmacokinetic properties when given as first-line therapy in combination with the chemotherapy regimen FOLFIRI. The study also includes a pilot evaluation of the efficacy of these treatments. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either RPH-030 or Vectibix® intravenously at a dose of 6 mg/kg every two weeks alongside FOLFIRI chemotherapy. Treatment will continue for up to two years or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The study is divided into several periods: a screening period lasting up to 27 days (extendable to 42 days if biopsy is needed), a 6-month main treatment period, a continued therapy period up to one year, a treatment extension period for responders lasting up to two years, and a follow-up period after treatment ends. During the study, patients will undergo regular tumor assessments approximately every 6 to 8 weeks depending on the study phase. Hospitalizations of at least 24 hours will occur at certain visits for drug administration. Researchers will monitor drug levels in the blood at multiple time points to understand treatment pharmacokinetics. Follow-up will include imaging tests, survival data collection, and safety monitoring until one year after treatment or until patient withdrawal or death. The goal is to assess treatment safety, immune response, effectiveness, and patient well-being throughout the study timeline.

This research aims to collect long-term safety and effectiveness data for participants treated with ibrutinib, a medicine used for various blood cancers and conditions including Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, and Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease. It also provides ongoing access to ibrutinib for participants who have completed previous ibrutinib studies, continue treatment, and benefit from it. This is an open-label Phase 3b study without formal hypothesis testing. Participants will continue their current ibrutinib dosing regimen from the prior study, taken orally once daily as capsules in doses of 560 mg, 420 mg, 280 mg, or 140 mg, around the same time each day. Treatment continues until the investigator decides the participant no longer benefits due to disease progression or side effects, the participant withdraws, alternative ibrutinib access becomes available, or the study ends. Participants not able to access ibrutinib elsewhere can keep receiving the single-agent ibrutinib until all transition or stop treatment, or until the study is stopped. During the study, safety is monitored throughout and summarized, and effectiveness may be analyzed together with previous study data. The main outcome measured is the number of participants experiencing any adverse events within 30 days after the last dose or until starting another cancer treatment. Participants will undergo assessments including pregnancy testing and investigator evaluations to ensure ongoing benefit and safety. The study duration depends on when participants stop treatment or transition to other access.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a new biosimilar drug called bevacizumab (made by Mabscale, LLC) compared to the existing drug Avastin4 in treating patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that cannot be removed by surgery or has recurred or spread. This is a phase III randomized, double-blind trial designed to show that the new bevacizumab works as well and is as safe as Avastin4. The study also includes assessments of how the body processes the drug (pharmacokinetics). Participants will receive treatment with bevacizumab at 15 mg/kg or Avastin4, combined with chemotherapy drugs paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) and carboplatin (AUC 6). This combination is given as the first-line therapy for advanced NSCLC. The study is conducted across multiple centers and participants are randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups without knowing which they receive. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for their response to treatment, specifically measuring the Objective Response Rate at 18 weeks after starting therapy. Researchers will also assess safety and side effects. Various tests including tumor measurements, blood tests, and other evaluations will be done to ensure participants meet criteria and to track treatment effects. The total duration includes screening, treatment, and follow-up visits to monitor health and outcomes.

This research investigates treatment patterns and the evaluation of homologous recombination repair mutations (HRRm) in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) among patients with aggressive high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) in the Russian Federation. The study focuses on patients with high-aggressive disease characterized by Gleason scores 8-10 and high-volume disease as defined by specific criteria for bone and visceral metastases. Approximately 400 male patients aged 18 years and older with known tumor HRRm status will participate to better understand demographic and clinical characteristics and treatment approaches in routine practice. The study does not introduce new treatments but observes and collects data as patients receive standard care. Two study visits will occur: the first at baseline to gather medical history, demographic data, and treatment information from diagnosis to enrollment, including routine blood samples for ctDNA and HRRm testing. The second visit will happen at disease progression or after about 12 months to collect follow-up data on progression to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and subsequent treatments. Blood samples will be analyzed centrally. Participants will have their medical records reviewed and may be interviewed to complete missing information. Data will be entered into electronic records by the study physician. Outcome measures include the proportion of patients receiving various treatments (such as androgen deprivation therapy, chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and specific inhibitors), duration of therapies, time to progression, mutation presence in ctDNA, testosterone levels, and sites of disease progression over 36 months. Follow-up may be completed by phone if in-person visits are not possible, with the total study duration lasting about 38 months or until data from 400 patients are collected.

Researchers are conducting a national, multicenter, prospective study in the Russian Federation to collect real-world data on patients with aggressive, advanced endometrial cancer (stages III-IV). The study aims to understand the prevalence of molecular markers such as POLE mutations, dMMR/pMMR, p53 abnormalities, HER2, and PD-L1, as well as to observe first-line postoperative treatment approaches in these patients. Approximately 500 female patients with newly diagnosed aggressive subtypes of advanced endometrial cancer will be enrolled across about 30 sites. The study involves two visits aligned with routine clinical practice. At the first visit, demographic and clinical information will be collected from medical records or patient interviews, along with biopsy or archival tumor samples for molecular testing using immunohistochemistry and genetic sequencing methods. The second visit occurs six months after baseline or at disease progression, whichever is earlier, to gather follow-up data on treatments and disease status. No additional procedures beyond standard care are applied. Participants' data will be securely entered into electronic case report forms by study physicians. Researchers will monitor the rates of molecular markers such as POLE mutation positivity, mismatch repair status, p53 abnormalities, PD-L1 expression, and HER2 expression over 24 months. The overall study duration, from first patient enrollment to final data analysis, is expected to be about 27 months or until all data from 500 patients are collected, including follow-up information.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immune response to BCD-236 combined with chemotherapy in women with relapsed or metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). This Phase 2 study focuses on patients who have received at least one prior systemic therapy and whose cancer has progressed or relapsed. The study aims to better understand how this combination treatment works in later lines of therapy for this aggressive breast cancer subtype. Participants will receive BCD-236 as an intravenous infusion along with chemotherapy, which will be chosen at the investigator's discretion. The study compares this combination treatment's effects and monitors participants over time. The primary outcome measured is the overall response rate at 24 weeks after starting treatment, assessing how well tumors respond to the therapy. Throughout the study, participants will undergo tumor assessments using RECIST 1.1 criteria to measure treatment response. Eligibility requires confirmation of AXL expression in tumor cells from fresh or archival tumor samples. Patients will be monitored for safety and disease progression, with evaluations including physical exams and performance status assessments. The study includes women aged 18 to 74 years with adequate health to participate and a life expectancy of at least four months.

This research aims to understand the clinical and demographic characteristics of adult patients living with Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) in Russia. It is an open-label, single-arm, non-interventional, multi-center cohort study focused on evaluating clinical outcomes and patient-reported experiences in routine care settings. The study includes adults diagnosed with NF1 who have plexiform neurofibromas (PN) confirmed by clinical or imaging methods and who experience symptoms related to PN. The study does not involve any investigational treatments or interventions but observes patients during their routine care. It enrolls adults aged 18 years or older with newly diagnosed PN or established PN who have not been treated with MEK inhibitors for PN. Diagnosis confirmation includes clinical assessment, ultrasound imaging, MRI, or biopsy. Patients with certain cancers requiring chemotherapy or radiation, or those who have recently used MEK inhibitors, are excluded. Participants will undergo a variety of assessments at the start of the study, including measurement of age, body metrics, educational background, NF1 complications, and symptoms related to PN. Researchers will review medical histories, hospitalizations, disability status, and prior examinations. The study collects data on PN volume and duration of symptoms and diagnosis. Follow-up visits and further evaluations will be conducted as per routine care. The study monitors changes in disability and overall health status during participation.

Researchers are conducting a multi-center, non-interventional study to observe routine diagnostic and treatment practices for patients with unresectable or inoperable locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) in 50 major oncology centers across Russia. The study will collect data from 2000 patients receiving chemo-radiation therapy (CRT) over two years. The aim is to understand demographic and clinical characteristics, diagnostic procedures, treatment approaches, and short-term outcomes of CRT in these patients, without collecting information on treatments following CRT such as durvalumab. The study involves collecting data at two main points: at the start of CRT (either concurrent or sequential chemo-radiation) and after the last dose of radiation therapy, including results from computed tomography (CT) scans. Data collection will be done from patients' medical records in routine clinical practice, and the second data collection is expected to occur within six months after the first visit. The study follows local regulations for adverse event reporting and does not involve additional interventions or treatments. Participants will be adults aged 18 years or older who have locally advanced NSCLC or LS-SCLC and are currently undergoing radiation therapy as part of CRT. Researchers will gather information on patient demographics, disease stage, histology, and clinical status at baseline. The study will monitor treatment details and short-term outcomes after CRT. All data is collected from existing medical records, ensuring no extra procedures for participants. The total participation duration aligns with routine treatment schedules and follow-up visits.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of cariprazine in treating adolescents aged 13 to 17 years with schizophrenia. This Phase 3 study compares cariprazine to a placebo to understand its effects on this population. Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of schizophrenia based on DSM-5 criteria and meet specific symptom severity requirements. Participants receive either cariprazine or matching placebo capsules once daily by mouth for 6 weeks in a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group design. The study is conducted across multiple international centers to ensure diverse participation and data collection. Throughout the 6-week study, researchers assess changes in schizophrenia symptoms using the PANSS total score from baseline to Week 6. Safety and tolerability are also monitored closely. Participants will undergo clinical evaluations and symptom scoring to track progress and response to treatment during the study period.

Researchers are studying the effects of Mexidol®, given both as an intravenous solution and as oral tablets, on patients who have recently experienced ischemic stroke. This pilot, randomized, multicenter, open-label study aims to better understand how Mexidol® works during the early and acute phases of stroke and to assess its impact on clinical symptoms and brain imaging outcomes. It also compares Mexidol® treatment to Glycine tablets while monitoring safety and effectiveness in both patients and healthy volunteers. Participants with acute ischemic stroke are randomly assigned to two groups. The first group receives Mexidol® solution intravenously twice daily for 10 days, followed by Mexidol® FORTE 250 mg tablets three times daily for 60 days, alongside standard stroke care. The second group receives Glycine sublingual tablets once daily for 5 days, also with standard care. Healthy volunteers will not receive treatment but will provide baseline biomarker data. The total treatment and observation period lasts up to 70 days for patients. During the study, participants undergo clinical evaluations, laboratory tests, and brain imaging such as CT or MRI scans to assess stroke damage and recovery. Researchers measure outcomes including infarct volume at day 11 and monitor safety throughout the trial. Both patients and healthy volunteers provide informed consent, and adherence to treatment and contraception requirements is tracked. The study includes follow-up assessments to evaluate the effects of the treatments over time.
