Researchers are studying the effects of two experimental drugs, pozelimab and cemdisiran, in adults aged 50 to 85 who have Geographic Atrophy (GA) caused by Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), a condition that affects central vision. The study aims to compare how quickly GA progresses in patients treated with cemdisiran alone, a combination of pozelimab and cemdisiran, or a placebo. Additional goals include monitoring possible side effects, measuring drug levels in the blood, and checking for antibodies that might reduce drug effectiveness or cause side effects. Participants receive subcutaneous injections of either pozelimab combined with cemdisiran, cemdisiran alone, or a placebo. The study is randomized, double-masked, and placebo-controlled, conducted at multiple centers. Treatment schedules and dosing are managed as described in the protocol, with vaccinations for meningococcal and pneumococcal infections required prior to participation. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular clinic visits where eye imaging using Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF) tracks the progression of GA lesion area over 52 weeks. Researchers also monitor safety, side effects, and immune responses, ensuring adherence to study procedures. The main outcome measured is the growth rate of the GA lesion area over one year, helping to evaluate the potential benefits and risks of the study drugs.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of IMVT-1402 in adults with Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus, including Subacute and Chronic forms. The study focuses on participants who have active disease and have not responded adequately to conventional treatments. This Phase 2b trial aims to better understand how IMVT-1402 performs compared to a placebo in this patient group. The study includes three treatment periods. In Period 1, participants are randomly assigned to receive either IMVT-1402 Dose 1 or a placebo injection once weekly for 12 weeks. In Period 2, all participants who finished the first period receive IMVT-1402 Dose 1 once weekly for 14 weeks. In Period 3, after completing Period 2, participants are re-randomized to receive either IMVT-1402 Dose 1 or Dose 2 weekly for 26 weeks. All treatments are given as subcutaneous injections. Participants will be involved for about 61 weeks total. Researchers will measure changes in disease severity using the Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease area and Severity Index (CLASI-A) score from the start to Week 12. Throughout the study, safety and tolerability will be monitored, along with other assessments to track disease activity and participant health.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of the Port Delivery System with ranibizumab (PDS) at 100 mg/mL in people with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). This study includes participants who have completed previous Phase II or Phase III studies or reached Week 24 in a related study but were not randomized. The study also explores two sub-studies: one assessing a laser treatment to reduce eye bleeding related to the PDS implant procedure, and another assessing the safety of re-implanting an updated PDS device. Participants receive the PDS implant with ranibizumab according to specific schedules in their study arms. The first sub-study uses transscleral photocoagulation with an Iridex laser system to reduce vitreous hemorrhages after implantation, enrolling about 55 participants. The second sub-study involves up to 100 participants in the United States who undergo re-implantation of the updated device and are followed for up to 72 weeks. Treatments and procedures are carefully monitored throughout. Participants undergo regular visits for up to 240 weeks to monitor for adverse events, including eye-related and systemic effects, severity, duration, and any device-related issues. The sub-studies also track specific complications like vitreous hemorrhages and adverse device effects during postoperative and follow-up periods. Safety assessments include eye exams, imaging, and evaluation of systemic health to ensure ongoing monitoring of participant well-being throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating whether the drug zilebesiran can reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as cardiovascular death, nonfatal heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure in adults who have hypertension that is not well controlled and who either have established cardiovascular disease or are at high risk for it. This Phase 3 global study is designed to continue until enough cardiovascular events have occurred to assess the treatment's effect. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zilebesiran or a placebo, both given as injections under the skin (subcutaneous administration). All participants will continue with their standard care, which includes treatment with at least two antihypertensive medications, one of which must be a diuretic such as a thiazide or loop diuretic. The study is double-blind, so neither participants nor researchers know who is receiving the active drug or placebo. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, heart failure hospitalizations, and cardiovascular deaths over approximately five years. Researchers will collect data on these events to determine the time until the first occurrence of any of these outcomes. Safety assessments and standard clinical evaluations will also be performed throughout the study period to ensure participant well-being.
