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 efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy as the first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express high levels of PD-L1. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter global study focuses on patients with mNSCLC without certain genetic mutations who are suitable for this treatment approach. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study compares these two drugs over repeated treatment cycles as first-line therapy. Both treatments are biological agents given by infusion, and the study is designed to monitor their effects over up to approximately five years. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including physical exams, imaging scans such as CT or MRI to measure tumor lesions, and laboratory tests to evaluate organ function. Researchers will closely monitor overall survival, progression-free survival, treatment response, duration of response, and patient-reported outcomes on physical functioning and quality of life. Safety and immunogenicity of rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants are followed and assessed for up to five years to gather comprehensive data on treatment effects and long-term outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of elecoglipron compared with placebo in adults who have type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM with impaired kidney function. Participants are also on dapagliflozin 10 mg as part of their guideline-directed medical therapy for chronic kidney disease CKD, along with other glucose-lowering medications. This Phase III study aims to understand how elecoglipron performs in this specific group of patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups elecoglipron at dose level 1, elecoglipron at dose level 2, or placebo. All treatments are given orally once daily alongside background dapagliflozin 10 mg. The study uses a parallel design and includes a 40-week treatment period during which participants take their assigned medication. During the study, participants will have their blood sugar control measured through Hemoglobin A1c HbA1c levels from baseline to Week 40, which is the primary outcome. Additional assessments include body weight changes, blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, and time to needing additional diabetes medication. Safety and tolerability will be monitored throughout the study, which lasts up to 40 weeks for each participant.

Researchers are evaluating MB12, a proposed pembrolizumab biosimilar, compared to Keytruda in combination with pemetrexed-platinum chemotherapy as the first treatment for patients with advanced metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC. This randomized, double-blind, multicenter study aims to compare the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, and immune response of MB12 and Keytruda in this patient population. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups MB12 with pemetrexed and carboplatin or cisplatin, European Union-sourced Keytruda with the same chemotherapy, or US-sourced Keytruda with the same chemotherapy. MB12 and Keytruda are given intravenously at 200mg every three weeks on Day 1. Pemetrexed is given at 500 mgm2 IV every three weeks on Day 1, while carboplatin or cisplatin is administered every three weeks for four cycles. During the study, participants will be monitored from Week 1 to Week 52 for drug levels in the body, treatment effectiveness, safety, and immune response. Key assessments include measuring pharmacokinetic bioequivalence and efficacy equivalence within the first 24 weeks, along with longer-term safety and immune monitoring. The study is led by mAbxience Research S.L. and is expected to continue until September 2027.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of pegozafermin in adults with compensated cirrhosis caused by metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis MASH, previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis NASH. This study focuses on participants with biopsy-confirmed advanced liver fibrosis stage F4 due to MASH. The research aims to understand how pegozafermin affects liver health over time compared to a placebo. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a matched placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study follows a randomized, parallel design with quadruple masking to ensure unbiased results. The treatment period extends up to 24 months, with additional long-term follow-up lasting up to five years to assess disease progression and liver fibrosis regression. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including measurements of liver fibrosis, disease progression through clinical events, and liver function tests such as alanine aminotransferase ALT levels. Tools like Enhanced Liver Fibrosis ELF score and FibroScan Vibration-controlled Transient Elastography VCTE will be used to monitor liver condition up to 60 months. Safety and efficacy will be closely monitored throughout the study period, which may last up to seven years in total.

Researchers are evaluating treatments for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that have specific genetic changes called HER2 mutations. This lung cancer has spread or cannot be controlled with current treatments. The study aims to compare how well a drug called sevabertinib works and how safe it is compared to standard treatment for this type of cancer. Participants will receive either sevabertinib tablets twice daily or standard treatment consisting of pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy given every 21 days by infusion. Those on standard treatment who experience disease progression may switch to sevabertinib. Treatment continues as long as participants benefit and do not have severe side effects or until they or their doctor decide to stop. During the study, participants will have imaging scans like CT, PET, MRI, and X-rays to monitor cancer spread. Doctors will also perform health checks including blood and urine tests, heart monitoring with ECG, pregnancy tests for women, and ask about symptoms or side effects. The main measure is progression-free survival assessed up to about 2 years, with additional outcomes related to survival, response rates, side effects, and quality of life followed up to 4 years.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of belzutifan as a single therapy for people with advanced pheochromocytomaparaganglioma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, von Hippel-Lindau disease-related tumors, advanced wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumors, or other advanced solid tumors with genetic changes related to hypoxia inducible factor-2 alpha. This phase 2 study focuses on measuring the objective response rate using standardized criteria reviewed by an independent central panel. Participants will receive oral belzutifan at a dose of 120 mg once daily. Treatment continues until the disease progresses or the participant chooses to stop. The study does not include a comparison group and follows a single-group design. The study period can last up to about 5.5 years to assess treatment effects and safety over time. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including imaging scans reviewed centrally to evaluate tumor response. Researchers will track outcomes such as duration of response, time to response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and any adverse events experienced. Safety and treatment tolerability will be monitored throughout the study. Participants are expected to remain in the study for several years to gather long-term data on belzutifans effects.
