Researchers are evaluating MK-1045, an immunotherapy, in people with two types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma NHL follicular lymphoma FL, which grows slowly, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma DLBCL, which grows more quickly. NHL is a cancer of the lymphatic system causing swollen lymph nodes. This study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of MK-1045 and to see if it can shrink or eliminate these lymphomas. Participants are randomly assigned to one of four groups receiving different doses or methods of MK-1045 administration. Dosages A, B, and D are given by intravenous IV infusion, while Dosage C is given by subcutaneous SC injection. Treatment lasts for up to approximately one year or until participants stop treatment for any reason. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events and treatment side effects, with measurements including tumor response using specific criteria. Blood levels of MK-1045 will also be tracked. The study involves regular visits for infusions and assessments. Participant safety and treatment effects will be followed for up to about 49 months in total.

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 investigating a combination therapy of BNT326 and pumitamig also called BNT327 or PM8002 in adults with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC who may have relapsed, progressive, or treatment-nafve disease. This multi-site, open-label study aims to find the best dose levels for this combination, assess how well participants tolerate the therapy, including side effects, and evaluate its ability to shrink tumors in this population. The study has three parts Part 1 focuses on finding safe dose levels for the combination Part 2a expands the dose evaluation to assess preliminary effectiveness and safety Part 2b is a randomized phase to optimize doses and understand the contribution of each drug component. Participants will receive intravenous infusions of BNT326 and pumitamig or pumitamig alone in some arms. Treatment continues until disease progression, unacceptable side effects, withdrawal, study end, or up to 24 months. Dose levels for later parts are chosen based on earlier safety and efficacy data. Participants will go through screening, treatment, safety follow-up, efficacy follow-up, and long-term survival follow-up phases, with total involvement expected to last about 36 months unless treatment benefit continues. Assessments include monitoring for dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, tumor response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and pharmacokinetics of the drugs. Safety evaluations continue up to 90 days after treatment ends, and antibody responses to the drugs are also measured for up to one year post-treatment.

Researchers are studying people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis IPF or progressive pulmonary fibrosis PPF who have previously taken nerandomilast in another study. The aim is to assess how well patients tolerate long-term treatment with nerandomilast and to evaluate whether it improves lung function and delays worsening symptoms, hospital visits, or death. This open-label extension trial is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim and focuses on treatment over an extended period. Participants take nerandomilast tablets for up to 1 year and 10 months while continuing their usual pulmonary fibrosis treatments. The study involves a single treatment group receiving the drug, and no placebo or comparison groups. Regular visits with doctors help monitor health and collect data during this extended treatment phase. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular lung function tests and health assessments to track any adverse events and changes in lung capacity. The main outcome measured is the occurrence of any adverse events for up to about 99 weeks. Secondary outcomes include changes in forced vital capacity and time to worsening of disease symptoms or hospitalization. The study includes ongoing safety monitoring with a total participation time of up to nearly two years.

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 safety and effectiveness of rilvegostomig combined with platinum-based chemotherapy compared to pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy as a first treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express programmed death-ligand 1 PD-L1. This Phase III global study focuses on patients with PD-L1 tumor cell expression of 1% or higher and aims to determine which treatment provides better overall and progression-free survival. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study groups one group will receive rilvegostomig plus carboplatin and either paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy, while the other group will receive pembrolizumab plus the same chemotherapy options. Rilvegostomig and pembrolizumab are both given intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle, with chemotherapy given up to 4 cycles. Nab-paclitaxel may be administered on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Treatment continues with rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab until disease progression or other criteria are met. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including imaging scans to measure tumor response, laboratory tests to monitor organ function, and patient questionnaires about physical function and quality of life. Researchers will track overall survival, progression-free survival, response rates, and duration of response for up to approximately 6 years. Safety and immune response to rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of volrustomig compared to observation in participants with unresected locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma LA-HNSCC who have not progressed after receiving definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy cCRT. This phase III, randomized, open-label global study aims to assess whether volrustomig can improve outcomes in this patient population. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups those who receive volrustomig as sequential therapy, and those who undergo observation without additional treatment. The study compares these two approaches following prior curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The trial includes long-term follow-up to monitor patient outcomes. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for progression-free survival, overall survival, physical functioning, and quality of life. Researchers will also monitor for the presence of anti-drug antibodies and adverse events related to volrustomig. Follow-up evaluations may continue for up to approximately eight years to fully understand the treatment impact and safety profile.

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 efficacy and safety of elecoglipron, an oral tablet taken once daily, for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight. This Phase III global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes two independent pivotal studies one in adults without type 2 diabetes T2DM and the other in adults with T2DM, all having at least one weight-related health condition. The goal is to understand how elecoglipron compares to placebo when combined with diet and exercise. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of elecoglipron or a matching placebo daily. Study 1 involves about 3000 adults living with obesity or overweight without T2DM, while Study 2 involves about 1500 adults with obesity or overweight and T2DM. Both studies last 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures will be monitored. During the trial, participants will undergo regular health assessments including measurements of body weight, waist circumference, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and other related health indicators. Researchers will track percent change in body weight from baseline at 72 weeks as the primary outcome. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatment in managing weight and associated health conditions.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma DLBCL is the most common and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, with rapid tumor growth and symptoms varying by tumor location. The disease is classified using advanced methods like immunohistochemistry and molecular testing to guide prognosis and personalized treatment. Despite standard immunochemotherapy curing 60-70% of patients, many experience treatment failure or relapse, and options after second-line therapies remain limited. This observational study examines treatment patterns, demographic, and clinical characteristics of DLBCL patients in the Middle East and Africa. It includes two patient groups those newly diagnosed and eligible for treatment, and those with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who have failed previous therapies. The study aims to explore access to novel therapies and understand real-world treatment approaches in these regions. Participants will be observed over 22 months, during which researchers will document treatment regimens, patient risk profiles, and access to new treatments. Data collection includes patient demographics, disease characteristics, and treatment outcomes. The study does not involve experimental treatments but gathers detailed information to inform future care strategies for DLBCL patients.
