This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of duvakitug injection in people with moderately to severely active Crohns Disease. It is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study focused on maintaining treatment benefits. The study includes participants aged 16 to 80 years and is sponsored by Sanofi. Participants receive subcutaneous injections of duvakitug or placebo according to the study protocol. The trial includes a 40-week pivotal maintenance sub-study followed by a 240-week open-label extension sub-study for those who continue. The total treatment duration may be up to 280 weeks, with up to 43 on-site visits throughout the study. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including clinical remission, endoscopic response, and other measures related to Crohns Disease activity. Safety is monitored by tracking adverse events and antidrug antibody levels. There is a 45-day follow-up visit after treatment ends. The study duration may be up to 286 weeks depending on participation in the extension phase.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a new medicine called NNC0487-0111 in people who have Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction HFpEF or Heart Failure with mildly reduced Ejection Fraction HFmrEF and excess body weight. This phase 3 clinical trial aims to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating these conditions compared to a placebo. Participants have HFpEF or HFmrEF and a body mass index of 30 or above. The study is sponsored by Novo Nordisk AS and uses a randomized, quadruple-masked design. Participants will receive either NNC0487-0111 or a matching placebo by injection under the skin once a week. The NNC0487-0111 is given in increasing doses over time. The study is parallel in design, meaning participants are randomly assigned to one of the two groups and receive that treatment throughout the trial. This treatment period extends for up to about 165 weeks. The study evaluates the time to certain heart failure events, hospitalizations, cardiovascular deaths, and other major cardiovascular events. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess heart failure outcomes and kidney function, as well as quality of life using questionnaires like the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. Safety and effectiveness are assessed through hospital visits, heart failure event tracking, and blood tests including kidney function and blood sugar levels. The total participation spans over three years, with ongoing evaluations to measure the time to heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes. Participants receive close medical monitoring throughout the study period.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the efficacy of astegolimab in adults aged 40 to 90 years with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. It focuses on participants who have completed a 52-week placebo-controlled treatment period in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study is a phase 3, open-label extension to gather extended safety information on this drug in COPD patients. Participants from the parent studies who qualify will receive subcutaneous injections of astegolimab every two weeks throughout the study until it ends. This open-label extension allows all participants to receive the active drug without placebo comparison. The study continues treatment beyond the initial 52-week period to monitor long-term effects. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events up to 12 weeks after their last dose of astegolimab. Researchers will collect safety data to understand the incidence of any side effects. The study involves regular assessments and follow-ups to ensure participant well-being, with the total duration lasting until July 2034.

Researchers are investigating the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in people with moderately to severely active Crohns Disease in a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study. The trial includes three sub-studies aiming to evaluate duvakitugs effects compared to placebo during induction treatment phases, focusing on clinical remission and endoscopic response at 12 weeks. Participants receive subcutaneous injections of duvakitug or placebo following the study protocol. The study duration can be up to 35 weeks, including a screening period of up to 5 weeks, followed by a 12-week induction phase in either Sub-Study 1 open-label, Sub-Study 2 pivotal induction, or Sub-Study 3 extended induction for non-responders. A 6-week follow-up period applies to participants not entering the maintenance study. Throughout the trial, participants undergo scheduled visits for assessments including clinical remission based on Crohns Disease Activity Index and endoscopic scores. Safety is monitored with reports of adverse events and serum drug levels. Up to 8 to 15 visits are planned depending on the sub-study, with follow-up continuing for 45 days after the last dose for those not moving to maintenance treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of duvakitug, a drug given by subcutaneous injection, in people with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis UC. This Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study includes participants aged 16 to 80 years and aims to assess clinical remission and other health improvements over a series of treatment periods. The study lasts up to 35 weeks and includes a screening period followed by three possible sub-studies a 12-week open-label induction, a 12-week pivotal induction, and a 12-week extended induction for those who do not respond initially. Participants receive injections of either duvakitug at one of two doses or placebo according to the study protocol, with up to 15 visits scheduled for those in extended induction. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including clinical remission rates at week 12, endoscopic and histological improvements, symptom tracking, quality of life questionnaires, and safety monitoring for adverse events. Follow-up visits occur up to 45 days after the last dose for those not continuing in the maintenance study. Researchers will also measure drug levels and immune responses over the study period to better understand treatment effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of vicadrostat combined with empagliflozin in adults who have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease but no history of heart failure. The study aims to assess whether this combination can help reduce cardiovascular risks compared to a placebo with empagliflozin. This Phase III trial involves adults with these conditions who are already receiving treatment for them. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets daily, while the other group takes placebo tablets that look like vicadrostat but have no active medicine, alongside empagliflozin. Treatment lasts from two and a half years up to four years and three months. All participants continue their usual medications for diabetes, blood pressure, and heart disease during the study. Throughout the study, lasting up to four years and three months, participants visit the study site regularly for health checks and blood samples. Doctors monitor cardiovascular events and any side effects experienced. The main outcome measured is the time until the first cardiovascular death or heart failure event. Other health indicators like blood pressure and kidney function are also tracked to understand the effects of the treatment combination.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of LY4268989 compared to a placebo in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC. The study focuses on participants with a diagnosis of UC for at least 3 months, confirmed by specific clinical and endoscopic criteria. This Phase 2 trial aims to better understand how LY4268989 may impact clinical remission and response in this patient group over a long-term period. Participants will receive either one of two doses of LY4268989 or a placebo, all administered orally. The study is randomized and double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active drug or placebo. The treatment period lasts up to approximately 108 weeks, excluding the screening phase, allowing for assessment of the drug over an extended time. During the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including clinical assessments using the Modified Mayo Score to measure remission and response at multiple time points, including weeks 10 and 52. Researchers will also monitor symptomatic response and measure plasma concentrations of LY4268989. Safety and effectiveness will be tracked through these clinical and laboratory tests to understand the drugs impact on UC over the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating whether adding zilebesiran to standard antihypertensive treatment can reduce major cardiovascular events in adults with hypertension that is not well controlled and who either have established cardiovascular disease or are at high risk for it. This phase 3, randomized, double-blind study aims to determine if zilebesiran lowers the risk of cardiovascular death, heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure events compared to placebo. The study will continue until a targeted number of these events have occurred, which may take up to about 5 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 300 mg of zilebesiran or a placebo, both given as subcutaneous injections every 6 months, alongside their usual blood pressure medications. The study uses a parallel design and includes careful monitoring of blood pressure and cardiovascular events over time. Both groups will continue their standard antihypertensive therapies, including at least two medications where one must be a diuretic. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, heart failure hospitalizations, and cardiovascular death. Blood pressure measurements will be taken at baseline and at 6 months, among other times. The primary outcome is the time until the first occurrence of a major cardiovascular event, with secondary outcomes including changes in blood pressure and other cardiovascular events. Participants will be followed for up to approximately 5 years to monitor these outcomes and overall survival.
