Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of an investigational drug called BNT323 also known as DB-1303 compared with standard chemotherapy in women with recurrent endometrial cancer. The study includes two groups based on the level of HER2 protein in the tumor Cohort 1 with HER2 levels 1 or 2 who have been previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, and Cohort 2 with HER2 level 3. The study aims to understand how well BNT323 or chemotherapy controls cancer progression and how the drug affects patients immune response and quality of life. Participants in Cohort 1 will be randomly assigned to receive either BNT323 or chemotherapy drugs such as doxorubicin, paclitaxel, or docetaxel. In Cohort 2, participants will receive BNT323 alone. Treatments are given intravenously and continue until the cancer progresses, unacceptable side effects occur, or consent is withdrawn. The study includes screening, treatment, safety follow-up, efficacy follow-up, and a long-term survival follow-up lasting up to about 53 months. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including tumor evaluations, safety monitoring, and quality of life questionnaires. Researchers will measure progression-free survival in Cohort 1 and tumor response rate in Cohort 2. Safety is monitored by tracking adverse effects and drug levels in the body. Participants can expect to be followed for up to 53 months after treatment to assess long-term outcomes and survival.

Researchers are evaluating AZD8965 in a Phase IIb trial to study its safety, tolerability, and effectiveness in treating Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis IPF. The study compares three doses of AZD8965 to a placebo in participants with IPF, including those who are on stable doses of approved antifibrotic therapies such as nintedanib, pirfenidone, or nerandomilast, as well as those not taking antifibrotic treatment. The trial is randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, and parallel-group in design. Participants are assigned to one of four groups placebo, low dose AZD8965, medium dose AZD8965, or high dose AZD8965. The treatment lasts for 24 weeks, during which participants receive their assigned medication. The study includes approximately 360 participants across around 200 sites worldwide. Researchers aim to assess the clinical efficacy of AZD8965 by measuring changes in lung function and study the relationship between dose and outcomes. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including lung function tests such as forced vital capacity FVC, monitoring for adverse events, and pharmacokinetic analyses of AZD8965. Safety and tolerability are monitored up to 25 weeks. Researchers will also track any serious adverse events and treatment discontinuations. The total participation time covers the 24-week treatment period with scheduled visits to assess the study outcomes and participant health.

Researchers are evaluating the use of epigenome-guided treatment selection compared to the usual standard-of-care SOC treatment for adults with active Crohns Disease CD. This study aims to assess the effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness of using an epigenetic biomarker assay and machine-learning software called EpiPredict to help choose between two biologic therapies, Vedolizumab VDZ and Ustekinumab UST, for treating active CD. The trial includes participants who have active disease and are either new to biologic therapy or have had limited prior biologic exposure. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one group will receive biologic treatment guided by the EpiPredict software based on epigenetic blood tests, which indicates the likelihood of response to VDZ or UST, while the other group will receive biologic therapy following usual SOC without epigenetic guidance. Both groups will receive their biologic therapy according to approved product labels, with dose adjustments allowed as needed by the treating doctor. Treatment and assessments will be carried out over 26 weeks, with different assessment schedules depending on the biologic received. After this treatment period, participants will have long-term follow-up every six months up to 24 months. During the study, participants will provide blood samples for epigenetic testing and undergo clinical and endoscopic evaluations to monitor their disease activity and response to treatment. Data will also be collected from routine medical records and online questionnaires during follow-up visits. The primary measurement is the comparison of clinical remission and endoscopic response rates at Week 26 between the two treatment selection methods. Researchers will also evaluate cost-effectiveness and explore how well the epigenetic assay predicts treatment success. Participants are required to comply with study procedures and provide informed consent to participate fully.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a triple therapy inhaler combining budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate BGF MDI 32014.49.6 g compared to a dual therapy inhaler with glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate GFF MDI 14.49.6 g on heart and lung outcomes in adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD who have a higher risk for heart and lung events. This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and conducted at multiple centers, focusing on participants with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk. Participants will receive either the triple therapy inhaler or the dual therapy inhaler, both administered twice daily. The study compares these two inhalers over a period of up to three years, monitoring for serious cardiac or COPD events. The trial includes careful evaluation of various heart and lung-related health events during this period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through regular visits, assessments, and tests to measure lung function, heart events, and COPD exacerbations. Researchers will track the time until the first severe cardiac or COPD event and evaluate other cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes over up to three years. Participants will also be assessed for their ability to properly use the inhaler and adherence to the study protocol throughout the trial.

This trial is for adults with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma HNSCC that has not been treated with systemic therapy before. The study compares the anti-tumor effects of amivantamab combined with pembrolizumab and carboplatin against pembrolizumab with 5-fluorouracil and platinum therapy carboplatin or cisplatin. Participants have HNSCC in the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx but not nasopharynx or unknown primary tumor sites, and HPV status is considered for oropharynx cases. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives pembrolizumab, amivantamab, and carboplatin, while the other receives pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil given as a 4-day infusion, and carboplatin or cisplatin. Treatments are given according to standard protocols for these drugs. The study is open-label and conducted across multiple centers. During the trial, participants will be monitored for overall survival and tumor response using established criteria up to about 3 years and 7 months. Additional assessments include progression-free survival, duration of response, quality of life questionnaires specific to head and neck cancer, and safety evaluations through adverse event and lab test monitoring. Blood samples will check amivantamab levels and antibodies. Participation involves regular visits for treatment and assessments throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating zolbetuximab combined with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in adults with stomach or gastroesophageal junction GEJ cancer. This study focuses on cancers that do not have the HER2 protein but do express Claudin 18.2. The goal is to understand how well zolbetuximab works with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy compared to a placebo with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in people with advanced or metastatic disease that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zolbetuximab or a placebo, both given via intravenous infusion every 2 or 3 weeks, alongside pembrolizumab infusions every 3 or 6 weeks. Chemotherapy will be administered using one of two regimens, CAPOX or modified FOLFOX6, over multiple cycles lasting about 42 days each. Treatment continues until the cancer worsens, side effects prevent further use, or another therapy is needed. Pembrolizumab may be given for up to 2 years. During the study, participants will visit the clinic for infusions and health monitoring, including scans to check cancer status. Medical problems and treatment side effects will be recorded. After treatment ends, participants will continue to have regular health checks and scans every 9 to 12 weeks, along with phone check-ins every 3 months. The study will measure overall survival, disease progression, response rates, and safety over several years, with up to 72 months of follow-up for some outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the disease-free survival in participants with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer HR-NMIBC who have previously received Bacillus Calmette-Gurin BCG treatment. This Phase 3 trial compares a new treatment called TAR-210 with the investigators choice of intravesical chemotherapy. The study focuses on participants with specific fibroblast growth factor receptor FGFR alterations and aims to find out which treatment better prevents cancer recurrence or progression after BCG therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. Group A will have TAR-210 inserted into the bladder starting on Day 1 and continuing for about 2 years. Group B will receive either mitomycin C or gemcitabine chemotherapy, chosen by the investigator, given once weekly for 4 to 6 weeks induction, followed by monthly maintenance doses for up to 1 year, with a possible second year of maintenance at the investigators discretion. All treatments are delivered directly into the bladder intravesically. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to 5 years to track disease-free survival and other outcomes such as recurrence-free survival, time to next intervention, disease worsening, progression, and overall survival. Researchers will also assess side effects, laboratory and vital sign changes, and quality of life using specific questionnaires. The study includes regular evaluations and safety monitoring throughout the participation period, which may last several years.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the efficacy of astegolimab in adults aged 40 to 90 years with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. It focuses on participants who have completed a 52-week placebo-controlled treatment period in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study is a phase 3, open-label extension to gather extended safety information on this drug in COPD patients. Participants from the parent studies who qualify will receive subcutaneous injections of astegolimab every two weeks throughout the study until it ends. This open-label extension allows all participants to receive the active drug without placebo comparison. The study continues treatment beyond the initial 52-week period to monitor long-term effects. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events up to 12 weeks after their last dose of astegolimab. Researchers will collect safety data to understand the incidence of any side effects. The study involves regular assessments and follow-ups to ensure participant well-being, with the total duration lasting until July 2034.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of AZD6793, an oral medication, in adults with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. This Phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involves approximately 970 participants across about 350 global sites. The trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of two different doses of AZD6793 against placebo over a 24-week period. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups receiving either dose 1 of AZD6793, dose 2 of AZD6793, or a matching placebo tablet. The study medication is taken orally and the trial lasts for 24 weeks. The study is designed as a parallel-group format with a 111 allocation ratio among the three arms. During the study, participants will be monitored through various assessments including lung function tests measuring forced expiratory volume FEV1, questionnaires evaluating breathlessness, cough, sputum, and quality of life, and tracking of COPD exacerbation events. Blood samples will be collected to measure plasma concentrations of AZD6793. Safety and efficacy outcomes will be evaluated up to 24 weeks, with the main outcome being the rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tezepelumab in adults aged 40 to 80 years with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. This phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on participants already receiving inhaled maintenance therapy and who have experienced multiple COPD exacerbations in the previous year. The trial aims to understand tezepelumabs impact on reducing COPD flare-ups and improving lung function compared to placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive monthly subcutaneous injections of one of two doses of tezepelumab or a matching placebo. The treatment period lasts between 52 and 76 weeks, followed by a 12-week safety monitoring period without treatment. Throughout the study, participants continue their inhaled COPD therapies, and their health is closely tracked to assess the study drugs effects. During the trial, participants will undergo various assessments including lung function tests, questionnaires measuring respiratory symptoms and quality of life, and blood tests to monitor drug levels and immune responses. Researchers will measure the annual rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations and other health outcomes over the study period. Safety will be monitored throughout treatment and during the follow-up period, with visits scheduled regularly to collect data and support participant care.
