Researchers are studying treatments for locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer mCRC that cannot be removed by surgery and has a specific KRAS G12C gene mutation. This trial aims to evaluate if adding the targeted therapies calderasib and cetuximab to the standard chemotherapy regimen mFOLFOX6 can provide better outcomes compared to mFOLFOX6 with or without bevacizumab. The study focuses on the safety and tolerability of these combinations and whether they can help people live longer without their cancer growing or spreading. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive calderasib orally, cetuximab every two weeks, and mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy including oxaliplatin, leucovorin or levofolinate calcium, and 5-fluorouracil every two weeks. The other group will receive mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab every two weeks, based on the investigators decision. Treatments will continue until certain stopping criteria are met. During the study, participants will be monitored for side effects and treatment tolerance, with regular assessments of cancer progression. Researchers will measure outcomes such as dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Quality of life will also be evaluated through questionnaires. The study may last up to several years, with monitoring continuing for safety and effectiveness throughout the treatment period and follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of enicepatide, a dual GLP-1GIP receptor agonist, at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM. This Phase III study aims to better understand how enicepatide affects body weight and other health measures in this population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or one of three dosing regimens of enicepatide, administered once weekly using an integrated drug-device combination product. The study lasts for 72 weeks, during which participants will self-administer the study drug or receive injections from a trained individual if needed. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including body weight, hemoglobin A1c, waist circumference, fasting glucose and insulin, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and quality of life questionnaires. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting and specific rating scales. This comprehensive evaluation will help determine the effects of enicepatide on weight and diabetes management over the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effects of BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab alone as a first-line treatment for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma HNSCC positive for human papilloma virus 16 HPV16 and expressing the protein PD-L1 with a combined positive score of 1 or higher. This is an open-label, multi-site, Phase IIIII clinical trial consisting of two parts an initial safety run-in phase and a randomized phase. In the safety run-in phase Part A, patients receive BNT113 in combination with pembrolizumab to confirm safety and tolerability at selected dose levels. The randomized phase Part B compares BNT113 combined with pembrolizumab against pembrolizumab monotherapy. Treatments are given by intravenous injection or infusion and continue for up to 24 months. An optional pre-screening phase allows tumor samples to be tested for HPV16 DNA and PD-L1 expression before the main trial screening. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study. Assessments include safety evaluations, tumor response, and survival outcomes such as overall survival and progression-free survival. Tumor tissue samples must be provided for testing. Researchers will measure treatment-emergent adverse events, response rates, duration of response, and disease control. The study may last up to 48 months, with ongoing safety and efficacy monitoring during and after treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of marstacimab, a study medicine, for potential treatment of hemophilia in boys and male children aged 1 to 17 years. The trial focuses on those with severe Hemophilia A or moderately severe to severe Hemophilia B, including participants with or without inhibitors. The study aims to compare participants experiences with marstacimab to their historical bleeding episodes without the medicine. All participants will receive weekly subcutaneous injections of marstacimab. The first dose is administered at the study site by staff, and subsequent doses can be given at home or by study staff during the 12-month treatment period. Enrollment opens sequentially by age groups, starting with adolescents 12-17 years, followed by children 6-11 years, and finally children 1-5 years. The study includes about 1 month of screening, 12 months of treatment, and 1 month of follow-up. Participants will visit the study site at least 10 times during the study, with the option for two visits to occur at home if allowed. They will also receive six phone calls approximately every two months. Researchers will monitor bleeding rates, adverse events, injection site reactions, and immune responses. The overall participation lasts about 14 months, including screening, treatment, and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab, both combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, as a first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC whose tumors express PD-L1 at levels of 1% or higher. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, global study aims to compare these treatments to improve outcomes for this patient group. Participants will receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab, each given intravenously on Day 1 of every 21-day cycle, combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy either carboplatin or cisplatin also given on Day 1 of each cycle for up to four cycles. After chemotherapy cycles, patients continue with rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab monotherapy combined with pemetrexed maintenance. The study follows patients for up to approximately six years to monitor treatment effects and safety. During the study, participants undergo assessments including imaging scans to measure tumor size, blood tests to evaluate organ function, and questionnaires about symptoms and quality of life. Researchers monitor overall survival and progression-free survival as primary outcomes, alongside other measures such as response duration and physical functioning. Safety is closely observed throughout, with study visits scheduled regularly during treatment and follow-up periods, lasting up to six years in total.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of combining durvalumab and domvanalimab compared to durvalumab plus placebo in adults with locally advanced Stage III, unresectable non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC whose disease has not progressed after definitive platinum-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy cCRT. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, international study aims to provide new insights into treatment options for this patient population. Participants will receive either durvalumab and domvanalimab or durvalumab plus placebo as intravenous infusions every four weeks, beginning on Day 1 and continuing for up to 12 months. The study includes two groups one receiving the combination of durvalumab and domvanalimab, and the other receiving durvalumab with a placebo. Both treatments are given through infusion to assess their effects on disease progression and safety. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including monitoring progression-free survival for up to 8 years after randomization. Other measures include overall survival, response rates, duration of response, and various time-to-event outcomes related to disease progression and symptom deterioration. Researchers will also evaluate drug concentrations and immune responses approximately 12 weeks after the last dose. Participants can expect scheduled visits for infusions and evaluations as part of this long-term study.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of JNJ-81201887, given as an intravitreal injection a shot into the eye, in participants with Geographic Atrophy GA secondary to Age-related Macular Degeneration AMD. This study is a long-term extension of parent clinical trials where participants had previously received either low or high doses of JNJ-81201887 or a sham procedure. The goal is to monitor participants over an extended period to understand any lasting treatment effects or side effects. Participants entering this long-term extension study will not receive additional doses of the study drug or any new intervention as part of this trial. They previously participated in parent studies where they were treated with either low dose or high dose JNJ-81201887 or sham procedure. Some participants who were in the sham group of the parent study may receive open-label treatment outside this study before entering this extension. This study focuses solely on follow-up without new treatment administration. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments to monitor ocular and systemic safety. These include tracking treatment-emergent adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, retinal imaging, and eye examinations over up to five years. This extended monitoring aims to evaluate the long-term safety profile of the previous treatments. Participants will be followed with periodic visits and evaluations, with the total study duration extending until 2030.

This research aims to gather long-term safety and effectiveness information for people treated with ibrutinib, a medicine taken by mouth that blocks a specific enzyme called brutons tyrosine kinase. The study focuses on participants who previously took part in ibrutinib studies that have finished and are still receiving ibrutinib treatment, continuing to benefit from it. It is an open-label study, meaning both participants and researchers know the treatment being given. Participants will continue taking ibrutinib capsules daily at the dose they were given in their prior study until the doctor decides the treatment is no longer helpful due to disease progression or side effects, the participant chooses to stop, other treatment options become available, or the study ends. Safety will be monitored throughout, and effectiveness data may be combined with previous study results. No formal testing of hypotheses is planned in this extension. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for safety and disease status. The main outcome is the number of participants experiencing side effects within 30 days after the last ibrutinib dose or before starting another cancer therapy. Participants may continue treatment until alternative access to ibrutinib is arranged or the study ends, which is planned for December 2029. Researchers will collect ongoing data to understand the long-term effects of ibrutinib treatment.

Researchers are conducting an observational study to better understand fucosidosis, a rare disease, its symptoms, and how it changes over time. The study aims to gather detailed information about the diseases natural history and progression, including patients who have or have not undergone stem cell transplant. There is currently no approved treatment for fucosidosis, so this study focuses on observing the condition without introducing new medications. The study is divided into two parts Part A involves collecting past medical data from up to 57 participants, and Part B involves following up with up to 31 participants prospectively, many of whom may also be in Part A. Participants will continue to receive their usual medical care throughout the study, with no additional treatments or interventions provided by the study team. Participants will provide medical history and health information that will be reviewed over time. The main focus is to track disease progression in individuals untreated by investigational products for up to four years. This includes gathering retrospective data and ongoing prospective observations to aid future research and potential treatment development. The study is expected to run until January 2031.

Researchers are evaluating a new classification system called the Modified Baveno Classification to better understand obstructive sleep apnoea OSA in adults newly diagnosed with this condition. The study aims to monitor long-term improvements in both objective and subjective measures related to OSA, including daytime sleepiness and cardiovascular health. This observational cohort study is led by Wissenschaftliches Institut Bethanien e.V and focuses on patients aged 40 years and older. Participants will be categorized into three groups based on the Baveno classification those for whom OSA-specific treatment is generally not recommended, those for whom treatment should be considered individually, and those for whom treatment is generally recommended. The study does not involve administering treatments but observes the patients over time according to their classification and treatment indications. During the study, participants will be followed for up to 36 months. Researchers will assess changes in daytime sleepiness using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale and monitor office blood pressure. Additional evaluations include cardiovascular events, treatment usage, insomnia severity, sleep length, fatigue, cognitive performance, and overnight oxygen levels. The study tracks these measures throughout the observation period to understand how the classification correlates with patient outcomes and treatment decisions.
