Researchers are studying the effectiveness and safety of eloralintide in adults who are obese or overweight but do not have type 2 diabetes. This Phase 3 trial aims to understand how eloralintide affects body weight and related health measures over a long period. The study includes a main phase and an extension phase for those with prediabetes to evaluate ongoing effects. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of four doses of eloralintide or a placebo, all given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The main phase lasts about 75 weeks, and participants with prediabetes may continue in an extension phase for an additional two years. This structure allows researchers to assess both short-term and longer-term outcomes. During the study, participants will have regular visits to measure body weight, body fat, waist size, blood pressure, blood markers like triglycerides and insulin, and quality of life questionnaires. Safety and treatment effects are monitored throughout. The main outcome is the percent change in body weight from the start to week 64, with follow-up continuing up to week 191 for some. Overall participation can last up to several years depending on the participants health status.

This research aims to compare two asthma inhalers that use different propellants in people with mild to moderate asthma. The study evaluates whether an investigational inhaler with a new climate-friendly propellant, HFA-152a, works as safely and effectively as inhalers using the existing HFA-134a propellant. This global Phase II study plans to enroll 468 patients in Europe, Latin America, Ukraine, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. Participants will use one of three inhaler treatments in a randomized, double-blind crossover design the investigational CHF5993 pMDI with HFA-152a, CHF5993 pMDI with HFA-134a, or CHF718 pMDI with HFA-134a. Each inhaler is taken as two puffs twice daily. The study compares lung function effects of these inhalers during treatment periods. During the trial, participants will be assessed for lung function through measurements like forced expiratory volume in 1 second FEV1 at baseline and after treatment. Researchers will monitor safety, treatment adherence, and asthma control over the study period. Participants undergo scheduled visits for these evaluations, with the study expected to complete in June 2027.
