Researchers are studying a medicine called enlicitide to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in adults with high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia). This trial aims to find out if taking enlicitide together with rosuvastatin, a standard cholesterol-lowering drug, works better than a placebo in lowering LDL-C levels. The study is a Phase 3 trial that is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled to ensure accurate and unbiased results. Participants will receive oral tablets of enlicitide or placebo along with oral capsules of rosuvastatin or placebo. The study compares the effect of enlicitide plus rosuvastatin against placebo to evaluate their impact on LDL-C. The treatment period lasts 8 weeks, during which participants take their assigned medications as directed. During the study, researchers will measure the average percent change in LDL-C from the start of the trial to week 8. Participants will be monitored for safety and any side effects throughout the study. The total participation time includes screening, treatment, and follow-up assessments to evaluate the medicines' effects and safety in adults aged 18 to 64 with hyperlipidemia.

Researchers are assessing the safety and effects of marstacimab as a potential treatment for hemophilia in children aged 1 to 17 years. This study includes pediatric participants with severe Hemophilia A or moderately severe to severe Hemophilia B, with or without inhibitors. Enrollment will occur in stages, starting with adolescents aged 12 to 17 years, followed by children aged 6 to 11 years, and finally those aged 1 to 5 years. Participants must have detailed historical records of their hemophilia treatment and bleeding events for at least one year prior to joining the study. All participants will receive marstacimab once weekly by subcutaneous injection, with the first dose given at the study site by staff. During the 12-month treatment period, weekly injections may be administered at home or at the study site based on preference. The study compares participant experiences during treatment with their historical records before starting marstacimab to evaluate its potential to prevent bleeding episodes common in hemophilia. Participants will be involved for about 14 months, including a 1-month screening period, 12 months of treatment, and a 1-month follow-up. They will visit the study site at least 10 times, with the option for two visits to be conducted at home if local rules allow. Additionally, six telephone calls will be scheduled every two months. Researchers will monitor bleeding rates, adverse events, thrombotic events, immune responses, injection site reactions, and hypersensitivity throughout the study period.

Researchers are investigating BGB-16673, a targeted protein degrader aimed at treating various B-cell cancers including marginal zone lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Waldenström macroglobulinemia, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The study includes both Phase 1 and Phase 2 parts to determine safe and effective dosing and to evaluate the drug's response in patients. The trial is conducted under the new company name BeOne Medicines, previously known as BeiGene. The treatment involves oral administration of BGB-16673. Phase 1 focuses on dose escalation and safety expansion to identify the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for expansion over approximately 28 days to 3 years. Phase 2 includes expansion cohorts to assess overall response rates over about 3 years. Participants may have prior treatments including Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors and other anticancer therapies depending on their cancer type and study phase. Participants will be monitored closely with assessments of adverse events from the first dose until 30 days after the last dose or before starting new therapy, whichever comes first, for up to 47 weeks. The study measures tolerability, dosing recommendations, and treatment response. Eligibility assessments include performance status and measurable disease, with safety and response evaluations continuing through both phases for up to three years.

This research aims to collect long-term safety and effectiveness data for participants treated with ibrutinib, a medicine used for various blood cancers and conditions including Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, and Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease. It also provides ongoing access to ibrutinib for participants who have completed previous ibrutinib studies, continue treatment, and benefit from it. This is an open-label Phase 3b study without formal hypothesis testing. Participants will continue their current ibrutinib dosing regimen from the prior study, taken orally once daily as capsules in doses of 560 mg, 420 mg, 280 mg, or 140 mg, around the same time each day. Treatment continues until the investigator decides the participant no longer benefits due to disease progression or side effects, the participant withdraws, alternative ibrutinib access becomes available, or the study ends. Participants not able to access ibrutinib elsewhere can keep receiving the single-agent ibrutinib until all transition or stop treatment, or until the study is stopped. During the study, safety is monitored throughout and summarized, and effectiveness may be analyzed together with previous study data. The main outcome measured is the number of participants experiencing any adverse events within 30 days after the last dose or until starting another cancer treatment. Participants will undergo assessments including pregnancy testing and investigator evaluations to ensure ongoing benefit and safety. The study duration depends on when participants stop treatment or transition to other access.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of baxdrostat combined with dapagliflozin compared to baxdrostat with placebo on reducing albuminuria in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and high blood pressure. This Phase IIb, randomized, multicenter, double-blind study includes adults aged 18 years and older, with or without type 2 diabetes and regardless of current SGLT2 inhibitor treatment. The study aims to assess both the impact on albuminuria and the safety of these treatments. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat with dapagliflozin or baxdrostat with a matching placebo. The study includes an optional pre-screening period to assess kidney function and other health markers, and those on SGLT2 inhibitors will undergo a washout before starting treatment. Randomization will consider diabetes status to ensure balanced groups. During the study, participants will be monitored up to 12 weeks to measure changes in albuminuria, specifically urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). Safety and other health parameters will also be assessed through blood tests and blood pressure measurements. The study ends when the last participant completes their final visit and procedures, ensuring thorough data collection on treatment effects and safety.

Researchers are investigating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and high blood pressure. This Phase III, international, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to see if this combination reduces risks such as significant kidney function decline, kidney failure, heart failure events, or cardiovascular death. The study includes a 4-week run-in period where participants not previously treated with SGLT2 inhibitors receive dapagliflozin alone. After this, participants are randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat plus dapagliflozin or placebo plus dapagliflozin in a double-blinded manner. Study visits occur frequently initially (at 2, 4, 8, 16, 34, and 52 weeks after randomization) and then approximately every 4 months. If participants stop the blinded treatment early, they continue dapagliflozin alone unless specific criteria require its discontinuation. Participants will undergo regular assessments including blood pressure monitoring and laboratory tests related to kidney function and cardiovascular health. The primary outcome measures the reduction in risk of major kidney and heart events over up to 37 months. Even if participants stop the study treatment, they will continue follow-up visits and data collection to ensure comprehensive safety and efficacy evaluation throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study to see if it can reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-PLUS) in adults with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study compares AZD0780 to a placebo and monitors participants from randomization until the primary analysis censoring date, followed by a final study closure visit. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 or an oral placebo once daily. The treatment period lasts until the primary analysis censoring date, after which a study closure visit will occur. The study is event-driven and designed to assess the time to the first major cardiovascular event during treatment. During the study, participants will be closely monitored with various assessments to evaluate cardiovascular outcomes and safety over approximately 54 months. Researchers will track the time to first event of any component of MACE-PLUS and collect data to assess the effect of AZD0780 compared to placebo. The study includes regular visits and evaluations to ensure participant safety and adherence to treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of HLX22 combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as the first treatment for patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the gastric or gastroesophageal junction. This phase 2, double-blind, randomized, and multiregional study compares this combination against trastuzumab and chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab. The study aims to measure how well the treatments work in controlling the disease and improving survival for up to five years. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives HLX22 at 15 mg/kg every three weeks along with trastuzumab, chemotherapy (XELOX regimen), and possibly a placebo for pembrolizumab. The other group receives a placebo for HLX22 plus trastuzumab, chemotherapy (XELOX), and possibly pembrolizumab every three weeks. Treatment continues until the disease worsens, unacceptable side effects occur, withdrawal of consent, or other protocol-specified reasons. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including tumor scans reviewed by an independent committee to evaluate progression-free survival and overall survival over up to five years. Other evaluations include safety monitoring and organ function tests. The study tracks how long patients live without disease progression and overall survival, aiming to better understand the benefits and risks of HLX22 combined with current standard treatments.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0519-0130 on kidney function in adults with chronic kidney disease, some of whom may also have type 2 diabetes, and who are living with overweight or obesity. The study compares NNC0519-0130 with semaglutide, an existing medicine, and a placebo, which is a "dummy" treatment. This is a Phase 2 proof-of-concept and dose-finding study aimed at understanding how these treatments may reduce kidney damage. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups receiving either NNC0519-0130, semaglutide, or placebo. All treatments are given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The study treatment phase lasts up to 36 weeks, with assessments at weeks 12, 24, and 36 to monitor changes in kidney damage by measuring the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio. The overall study duration can be up to 43 weeks. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored through laboratory tests and clinical evaluations to assess kidney function and safety. Researchers will measure changes from the start of the study in the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio at multiple time points. Participants will also need to have stable doses of certain blood pressure medications before joining. Safety and treatment effects will be assessed throughout the study period.

Researchers are investigating whether ziltivekimab can treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. The study compares ziltivekimab, a new medicine not yet approved anywhere, to a placebo, an inactive substance that looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. Participants have an equal chance of receiving either treatment. The study is expected to last up to one year and four months and focuses on people with heart failure who also have systemic inflammation. Participants will receive either ziltivekimab or placebo by monthly injections under the skin. The doses are given once a month throughout the study period. The study lasts for 12 months of treatment following randomization, during which the effects of the medicine compared to placebo will be closely monitored. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including a heart failure questionnaire called the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) to measure symptoms and physical function over the 12 months. Other evaluations may include walking tests and heart function tests. Safety and health will be monitored regularly to understand how participants respond to the treatments and to track any side effects or changes in heart failure symptoms.
