This research aims to evaluate the effects of litifilimab (BIIB059), a monoclonal antibody, in adults with active subacute or chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), with or without systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Participants have active skin symptoms of CLE that have not improved with antimalarial therapy or had difficulties continuing that treatment. The study focuses on reducing skin disease activity using several scores including CLA-IGA-R and CLASI, while also assessing safety, immune response, and quality of life. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either litifilimab or a placebo injection under the skin every four weeks during a 24-week double-blind period where neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given. After this, all participants will receive litifilimab injections every four weeks for an additional 28 weeks. Those who complete the treatment may join a long-term extension study or enter a follow-up safety period lasting up to 24 weeks. Total participation may last up to 80 weeks. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor skin disease activity using the CLA-IGA-R erythema score and the CLASI-A activity score to see how many participants improve. They will also assess safety, tolerability, immune system effects, and participants' quality of life using questionnaires. These evaluations occur regularly during both treatment periods and follow-up to understand the impact of litifilimab on CLE symptoms and overall health.

Researchers are evaluating new treatment options for adults with locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and has a specific KRAS G12C gene mutation. This study compares the safety and effectiveness of adding calderasib and cetuximab, both targeted therapies, to a standard chemotherapy regimen called mFOLFOX6. The goal is to see if this combination can help patients live longer without their cancer growing or spreading compared to current treatments that may include mFOLFOX6 with or without bevacizumab. The study has two parts. It involves treatment with calderasib taken as an oral tablet, cetuximab given according to standard procedures, and mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy combining oxaliplatin, leucovorin/levofolinate calcium, and 5-fluorouracil. Some participants may receive bevacizumab or a bevacizumab biosimilar as part of the comparison. The treatments are given following approved dosing schedules. This design allows researchers to assess the safety and tolerability of these drug combinations in treating this type of colorectal cancer with the KRAS G12C mutation. Participants will be monitored for side effects, treatment tolerability, and cancer progression over a period that may last up to about 44 months. Researchers will track outcomes such as how many participants experience dose-limiting toxicities or adverse events, how many stop treatment due to side effects, and progression-free survival time. Assessments include health evaluations, laboratory tests, and imaging to observe cancer status. This long-term follow-up aims to understand both safety and effectiveness of the treatment combinations.

Researchers are evaluating molnupiravir, a study medicine designed to stop the COVID-19 virus from multiplying, to see if it can prevent severe illness from COVID-19 more effectively than a placebo. This Phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study focuses on non-hospitalized adults at high risk of severe disease progression due to COVID-19. The study addresses the need for alternative treatments for people who cannot take certain COVID-19 medications due to availability or potential drug interactions. Participants will receive either molnupiravir or a placebo, both given orally as two 400 mg film-coated tablets every 12 hours for 5 days, totaling 10 doses. Some participants may also receive remdesivir as part of standard care if clinically appropriate and available. The study compares the effects of molnupiravir with placebo in preventing severe illness outcomes. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for outcomes such as hospitalization, death, or medically attended visits related to COVID-19 up to 29 days. Safety is assessed by tracking adverse events for up to about 5 months and discontinuation of study treatment due to adverse events for about 5 days. The study involves laboratory tests, symptom assessments, and safety evaluations to understand molnupiravir's impact on disease progression and participant health.

Researchers are investigating new treatments for people with high-risk, early-stage breast cancer, specifically targeting triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and hormone receptor (HR)-low positive/HER2-negative breast cancer. These types have little or no HER2 protein and involve hormones like estrogen or progesterone. The study aims to evaluate if the addition of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), a targeted therapy, combined with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy can improve outcomes compared to pembrolizumab with chemotherapy alone. Participants receive treatments including sacituzumab tirumotecan, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy drugs such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, all given by intravenous infusion. Rescue medications like antihistamines, acetaminophen, dexamethasone, or steroid mouthwash may be used as needed. The study is randomized and open-label, comparing sac-TMT followed by chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab to chemotherapy and pembrolizumab without sac-TMT. During the study, researchers will monitor participants up to about 30 weeks to assess the percentage of people with no remaining cancer cells at surgery. They will also follow participants for up to approximately 92 months to track event-free survival, meaning time without cancer growth, spread, or return. Participants will undergo imaging, clinical assessments, and laboratory tests to evaluate treatment effects and safety throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating tulisokibart as a potential treatment for radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA), a type of arthritis causing pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the spine and pelvis joints, visible on X-rays. This Phase 2b study aims to determine if different doses of tulisokibart improve symptoms better than a placebo, which looks like the study medicine but contains no active drug. The study has two main parts: a 16-week placebo-controlled period where participants receive either tulisokibart or placebo through subcutaneous injections, followed by a 124-week long-term extension divided into a 40-week main extension and an 84-week optional extension. This allows researchers to assess both the short-term and longer-term effects and safety of tulisokibart. Participants will be monitored for their response using the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS) 40 response at week 16 as the primary outcome. Throughout the study, researchers will evaluate disease activity and safety while tracking symptoms and any side effects. The total involvement spans up to 140 weeks, including both initial treatment and extension phases.

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 investigating budoprutug, a humanized immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody targeting CD19, in adults with Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP). This Phase 1b/2a, open-label, sequential-cohort study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary effectiveness of budoprutug. Participants have ITP with low platelet counts despite prior treatment attempts. Participants will receive budoprutug as two intravenous infusions given 14 days apart in escalating doses. The study includes dose escalation and expansion cohorts where the medication is given as a single IV dose on Day 1 and Day 15. The treatment is designed to deplete targeted cells through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor safety by tracking treatment-emergent adverse events up to week 48. Participants will undergo laboratory tests to confirm eligibility and monitor blood counts and other parameters. The study evaluates pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical response while following participants for safety and tolerability over several weeks.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of Radotinib in patients with chronic phase Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) who have not responded well or cannot tolerate previous treatments with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) including Imatinib. This Phase 3, multinational, multicenter, open-label study aims to enroll 173 participants to better understand Radotinib's impact on this condition. Participants will receive Radotinib capsules at a dose of 400 mg twice daily in a single treatment arm. Radotinib is provided as hard capsules containing 100 mg or 200 mg doses of the drug. Treatment will be administered continuously, and the study includes monitoring for safety and efficacy throughout the course. The study does not include a comparator group but follows participants closely for response to therapy. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated to monitor their response, including measuring the major cytogenetic response at 6 months. Assessments will include laboratory tests to check organ function and disease status, as well as safety monitoring for side effects. The study requires participants to attend scheduled visits and comply with study procedures, including pregnancy testing for women of childbearing potential and contraception use. The overall participation duration and follow-up details are based on the study protocol.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, how the body processes the drug, and the effectiveness of calderasib alone or combined with other treatments in adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12C mutation. This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter study focusing on participants with this genetic mutation in their tumors, aiming to understand how calderasib works alone and with other drugs. Participants receive calderasib as an oral dose, and some may also receive other medications such as pembrolizumab through intravenous infusion, or drugs like carboplatin, pemetrexed, cetuximab, oxaliplatin, leucovorin, and 5-fluorouracil according to standard guidelines. The treatments may be given alone or in combination depending on the study arm, with dosing schedules following label instructions or protocol specifications. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for any dose-limiting toxicities and adverse events, including reasons for stopping treatment. Researchers will assess these effects for up to about 21 days for dose-limiting toxicities and up to 56 months for adverse events and treatment discontinuation. The study involves regular evaluations to track safety, tolerability, and how well the treatment works over time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of calderasib combined with pembrolizumab as a first treatment in adults with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation and a PD-L1 tumor proportion score of 50% or higher. This Phase 3 trial aims to test if the combination of calderasib and pembrolizumab improves progression-free survival and overall survival compared to pembrolizumab with a placebo. Participants receive oral calderasib tablets or placebo along with pembrolizumab given by intravenous infusion. The study compares these two treatment groups to see which provides better outcomes. Treatments continue during the study, and there are no additional interventions described beyond these drugs. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments including scans and tests to monitor their cancer's progression and overall health. The main outcomes measured are progression-free survival for up to about 42 months and overall survival for up to about 56 months. Safety is monitored throughout, and participants are followed for several years to evaluate long-term effects of the treatments.
