This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) in adults with established cardiovascular disease and elevated Lipoprotein(a) who have completed the parent trial CTQJ230A12301. The study is an open-label extension following the phase 3 parent study, providing participants continued access to pelacarsen after the initial trial. Participants will receive pelacarsen 80 mg by subcutaneous injection once a month during this open-label extension. The study is single-arm and multicenter, focusing on continued treatment with pelacarsen for up to 36 months after completion of the parent study. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess safety and tolerability, with particular attention to adverse events occurring up to 36 months. Researchers will collect data on health status throughout this period to understand the long-term effects of pelacarsen in this patient population.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of NBI-1065845 when added to ongoing antidepressant treatment in adults diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). It focuses on participants who have experienced moderate or severe recurrent MDD or persistent depressive disorder and who have not responded adequately to oral antidepressants during their current depressive episode. This is a Phase 3, open-label study designed to monitor the effects of this adjunctive treatment over an extended period. Participants will receive NBI-1065845 tablets alongside their current oral antidepressant therapy. The study will observe treatment effects and monitor any adverse events that emerge during the course of therapy. There is no mention of a comparator or placebo group, indicating all enrolled individuals will be treated with NBI-1065845 in addition to their existing medication. The treatment and observation period extends through 52 weeks, allowing for comprehensive long-term safety assessment. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated for treatment-emergent adverse events from the start through week 52. Researchers will track safety and tolerability through clinical assessments and monitoring. Participants must be willing and able to follow all study procedures and restrictions as determined by the investigators. The overall duration and detailed assessments ensure thorough monitoring of how well participants tolerate the adjunctive treatment over the course of one year.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of baxdrostat combined with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in adults aged 40 and older who have type 2 diabetes, established cardiovascular disease, a history of hypertension with systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg at screening, and at least one additional risk factor for heart failure. This Phase III randomized, placebo-controlled, event-driven study aims to determine if the combination reduces the risk of heart failure events or cardiovascular death, with follow-up lasting up to 38 months. Participants who meet screening criteria but are not currently treated with SGLT2 inhibitors or have been treated for less than 4 weeks will enter a run-in period receiving dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily for 4 to 6 weeks before randomization. The study involves random assignment to either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or placebo plus dapagliflozin. Site visits occur at approximately 2, 4, 8, 16, and 34 weeks after randomization, then every 4 months. Participants discontinuing the blinded study drug may continue open-label dapagliflozin, with ongoing visits and data collection as per protocol. Participants will undergo an optional pre-screening period without site visits or consent to help identify eligibility, followed by up to 14 days of formal screening after informed consent. Researchers will monitor heart failure events and cardiovascular deaths as primary outcomes. Safety and adherence will be tracked throughout the study, including during any premature discontinuation of blinded treatment. The study will conclude when a predetermined number of secondary endpoint events have occurred, with continued follow-up as needed.
