Researchers are evaluating the combination of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin in people with chronic kidney disease CKD and high blood pressure hypertension. This Phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to assess whether this combination reduces the risk of serious kidney damage, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death compared to dapagliflozin alone. The study includes participants with CKD and hypertension who meet specific kidney function and blood pressure criteria. Participants who are not already taking SGLT2 inhibitors will first complete a 4-week dapagliflozin run-in period. Then, they will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or a placebo plus dapagliflozin. Baxdrostat dosing may start low and be increased if needed. Study visits will occur at 2, 4, 8, 16, 34, and 52 weeks after randomization, and then approximately every four months until the study ends, which is based on the number of key kidney or heart-related events. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including blood tests to monitor kidney function and potassium levels, blood pressure measurements, and evaluations of heart and kidney health. If participants stop the blinded study drug early, they will continue dapagliflozin if possible and remain in the study for ongoing visits and monitoring. The main outcome is whether the combination treatment reduces the risk of a 50% sustained decline in kidney function, kidney failure, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death over up to 37 months.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study. This trial focuses on patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study aims to assess how AZD0780 compares to placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, also known as MACE-PLUS, over the course of the trial. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 once daily or a matching placebo once daily. The study continues until a primary analysis censoring date, which may be up to approximately 54 months from randomization. After this, a study closure visit will be conducted as the final visit for each participant. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, urgent coronary revascularizations, and other related outcomes. Researchers will track the time to first occurrence of these events as the primary outcome. Safety and other secondary outcomes like all-cause mortality will also be assessed. The total participation time can last up to about 54 months, with ongoing evaluations throughout this period.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of combining elecoglipron and dapagliflozin compared to each drug alone in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM who have not achieved adequate control through lifestyle changes or other glucose-lowering medications. This Phase III study aims to better understand how these treatments work together in managing blood sugar levels in this population. Participants are randomly assigned to one of five groups two groups receive elecoglipron at different dose levels combined with dapagliflozin two groups receive elecoglipron at different dose levels combined with a placebo matching dapagliflozin and one group receives dapagliflozin alone with a placebo matching elecoglipron. All medications are taken orally once daily. The treatment period lasts 40 weeks, during which the effects of the drugs on blood sugar and other health measures will be monitored. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments of their blood sugar control, body weight, and blood pressure. Researchers will measure changes in Hemoglobin A1c HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and self-monitored blood glucose levels. Other outcomes include weight loss and the need for rescue medication. Safety and tolerability will be closely monitored. Participation in the trial lasts for 40 weeks, during which participants will attend scheduled visits for evaluation and medication monitoring.

Researchers are assessing the effectiveness and safety of rilvegostomig combined with fluoropyrimidine and trastuzumab deruxtecan compared to trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab in adults with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction GEJ adenocarcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS 1. The study also evaluates rilvegostomig combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy to understand the contribution of each treatment component. This is a Phase 2, randomized, open-label, global, multicenter trial sponsored by AstraZeneca. Participants are divided into three groups Arm A receives T-DXd, rilvegostomig, and fluoropyrimidine capecitabine or 5-FU Arm B receives pembrolizumab, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy either 5-FU plus cisplatin or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin Arm C receives rilvegostomig, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy 5-FU plus cisplatin or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin. Treatments are given by intravenous infusion every three weeks or oral administration twice daily for capecitabine. This setup allows comparison of different combinations to evaluate each drugs role. During the study, participants will be monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival up to about six years. Researchers will also assess response rates, duration of response, adverse events, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and quality-of-life factors like eating difficulties and side-effect burden. The study involves regular assessments including tumor measurements and laboratory tests. Participation may last several years, with safety and efficacy closely followed throughout this time.

Researchers are evaluating novel combination treatment options for adults with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer NSCLC in this Phase II, multi-center, open-label study. The trial includes several sub-studies focused on specific NSCLC populations based on genomic alterations and PD-L1 expression levels. The study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of various drug combinations across approximately 80 centers worldwide. Participants will receive one of three investigational drug combinations administered by intravenous infusion rilvegostomig with or without ramucirumab for first-line NSCLC with non-actionable genomic alterations and varying PD-L1 expression levels, or Dato-DXd combined with ramucirumab with or without rilvegostomig for later-line NSCLC with actionable genomic alterations. Treatments continue until disease progression, unacceptable side effects, or withdrawal from the study. Each sub-study may include initial safety run-in cohorts followed by dose expansion cohorts. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular evaluations including tumor imaging to assess response, clinical safety monitoring, and laboratory testing. Researchers will measure outcomes such as adverse events, objective response rates, progression-free survival, and overall survival over an average of three years. Pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of the study drugs will also be monitored. Participation involves ongoing treatment and follow-up visits until study completion or discontinuation.

Researchers are evaluating tozorakimab as an additional treatment to standard care in adults hospitalized with viral lung infection who need supplemental oxygen. The study aims to determine if tozorakimab can help prevent death or the need for invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. This Phase III trial involves a large group of participants to assess the safety and effectiveness of this approach. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one group receives a single intravenous dose of tozorakimab on the first day, while the other group receives a matching placebo. The study uses a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given. This helps ensure unbiased results. The treatments are given once, and participants continue to receive standard care during the trial. During the study, participants are closely monitored and evaluated up to 60 days after treatment. Researchers track important outcomes such as death rates, progression to invasive ventilation, days alive outside intensive care, and oxygen use. They also assess clinical progression using a World Health Organization scale and monitor for any anti-drug antibodies. The trial lasts until November 2027, with multiple assessments throughout to understand the treatments impact and safety.

This research aims to evaluate the effects of combining baxdrostat 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 a systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg, and at least one additional risk factor for heart failure. The study is a phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled trial focusing on preventing heart failure events and cardiovascular death. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat with dapagliflozin or placebo with dapagliflozin. Those starting the baxdrostatdapagliflozin treatment may begin with a lower baxdrostat dose that can be increased if certain criteria are met. A run-in period with dapagliflozin alone for 4 to 6 weeks may occur for those not previously treated or treated less than 4 weeks with SGLT2 inhibitors. Treatment visits will occur at about 2, 4, 8, 16, and 34 weeks after randomization, then every 4 months until study closure. Participants will undergo screening for eligibility within a 14-day period, with an optional pre-screening phase that does not require site visits or consent. During the study, regular assessments including monitoring for heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes will be conducted. If participants stop the blinded treatment early, they may continue with open-label dapagliflozin unless specific discontinuation criteria apply. The study will continue until a predetermined number of cardiovascular events occur, with ongoing data collection and visits according to protocol.
