Researchers are evaluating molnupiravir, a study medicine designed to stop the COVID-19 virus from multiplying, to see if it can prevent severe illness from COVID-19 more effectively than a placebo. This Phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study focuses on non-hospitalized adults at high risk of severe disease progression due to COVID-19. The study addresses the need for alternative treatments for people who cannot take certain COVID-19 medications due to availability or potential drug interactions. Participants will receive either molnupiravir or a placebo, both given orally as two 400 mg film-coated tablets every 12 hours for 5 days, totaling 10 doses. Some participants may also receive remdesivir as part of standard care if clinically appropriate and available. The study compares the effects of molnupiravir with placebo in preventing severe illness outcomes. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for outcomes such as hospitalization, death, or medically attended visits related to COVID-19 up to 29 days. Safety is assessed by tracking adverse events for up to about 5 months and discontinuation of study treatment due to adverse events for about 5 days. The study involves laboratory tests, symptom assessments, and safety evaluations to understand molnupiravir's impact on disease progression and participant health.

Researchers are conducting a phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of orforglipron for treating hypertension in adults who are overweight or have obesity. The study framework supports two independent trials and aims to better understand how orforglipron works in this specific population with high blood pressure and excess weight. Participants receive orforglipron or a placebo orally once daily. The study includes screening and baseline visits to confirm eligibility based on blood pressure and body mass index. Treatment is randomized and double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active medication or placebo during the trial. Throughout the study, researchers monitor blood pressure and other health factors to assess the number of participants assigned to each treatment group. Safety and efficacy are evaluated regularly, with ongoing observation of participants’ response to the medication and any potential side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of orforglipron for treating people who have both hypertension and are either overweight or obese. This study is part of a larger master protocol called GZPL and focuses specifically on these health conditions. The trial is designed as a Phase 3 study to provide important information about this potential treatment. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo, both given orally once daily. The study compares these two groups to understand the impacts of orforglipron on blood pressure and weight-related health issues. The treatment period lasts up to 36 weeks, during which participants are monitored closely. During the study, participants will have their office systolic blood pressure measured to track changes from the start of the trial to week 36. Researchers will also monitor safety and other health measures throughout the trial. The study involves regular visits and assessments to ensure participant well-being and to gather thorough data on the treatment's effects.

This research aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of orforglipron for treating hypertension in adults with obesity or overweight. It is conducted as part of the GZPL master protocol and focuses on participants who have both high blood pressure and elevated body weight. The study is designed as a Phase 3 clinical trial to provide detailed evaluation of this new treatment approach. Participants will receive either orforglipron or a placebo, both given orally once daily. The study compares these two groups to understand the benefits and any side effects of orforglipron when used for managing hypertension in this specific population. The treatment period and detailed dosing schedule are based on the master protocol, which guides participant management and study procedures. During the study, participants will have their systolic blood pressure measured regularly to track changes from the start through week 36. Researchers will monitor safety and treatment effects closely, following all procedures outlined in the master protocol. The overall duration of participant involvement and additional assessments are determined by the master protocol guidelines for this comprehensive evaluation.

This research aims to evaluate how well brenipatide (LY3537031) is tolerated, what side effects may occur, and its safety and effectiveness in adults with Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Diarrhea (IBS-D). The study focuses on participants who meet specific IBS-D criteria related to bowel movement patterns and abdominal pain. It is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial lasting approximately 35 weeks. Participants will receive either brenipatide or a placebo, both administered under the skin through subcutaneous injection. The treatments are compared to assess their impact on IBS-D symptoms. The study involves careful monitoring of patients' responses to the medication over the treatment period, with no changes in diet allowed in the four weeks before screening. During the study, participants will track their symptoms daily using an electronic diary, including abdominal pain and stool consistency. Researchers will measure the percentage of days participants have a positive composite response between weeks 9 and 16. Safety and side effects will be monitored throughout the study, ensuring participants are closely observed during the full duration of about 35 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of muvalaplin on reducing cardiovascular risk in adults with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels who either have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or are at risk for a heart attack or stroke. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on adults with high Lp(a) levels and prior or potential cardiovascular events. The study aims to assess the time to the first major adverse cardiovascular event over about 5.25 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either muvalaplin or a placebo, both administered orally. The study includes individuals with Lp(a) levels of at least 175 nanomoles per liter who have had a prior cardiovascular event within 10 years or are at risk for a first event due to conditions such as coronary artery disease, carotid stenosis, peripheral artery disease, high coronary artery calcium score, reduced kidney function with diabetes, or other high-risk factors. The treatment period lasts through the study duration, with close monitoring. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated to track the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events, including heart attacks and strokes. Safety assessments will monitor blood pressure, kidney function, and heart failure status among other health indicators. The primary outcome measures the time to the first major cardiovascular event from baseline up to the end of the study, which spans approximately 5.25 years.

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.
