Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes an extension period and aims to measure changes in the number of monthly migraine days. Participants have chronic migraine and meet specific criteria related to headache frequency and migraine history. Participants receive Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck at pericranial and cervical points. The study includes two Xeomin dose groups and a placebo group during the controlled period, with all groups receiving Xeomin in the extension phase. Four treatments are given approximately 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. Participants take part in 14 visits over the study period, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted in person and the remaining eight visits by phone or video call. Researchers collect headache and migraine data from diaries and assess changes in monthly migraine days as the primary outcome. Safety is monitored by tracking treatment-related adverse events throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the use of Xeomin injections to prevent episodic migraine. This Phase 3 clinical trial compares Xeomin to placebo injections in the muscles of the head and neck to measure changes in the number of monthly migraine days. Participants have episodic migraine with or without aura, and the study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of different Xeomin doses over time. Participants receive a series of four Xeomin or placebo injections spaced about 12 weeks apart. The study includes two experimental groups receiving different Xeomin doses and a placebo group, followed by an extension period where some participants receive Xeomin. Injections are given at specific points around the head and neck. The trial lasts approximately 52 to 55 weeks, starting with a 4 to 5 week screening period. Participants attend about 14 visits, including the first and last visits and four treatment visits conducted on-site, with other visits done remotely by phone or video call. Researchers monitor changes in monthly migraine days, headache days, and medication use, as well as any treatment-related side effects throughout the study.

Primary immune thrombocytopenia ITP is a condition where the immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, leading to a lower number of platelets and increased risk of bruising or bleeding. This Phase 3 study evaluates the long-term safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of mezagitamab in adults with chronic primary ITP. The study also investigates how the body processes mezagitamab over an extended period. Participants who completed previous mezagitamab studies TAK-079-3002 or TAK-079-1004 will be invited to join this continuation trial. Eligible participants may receive mezagitamab injections on demand, with treatment courses repeated as needed based on specific criteria and the investigators clinical judgment. The treatment is administered subcutaneously. During the study, participants will visit the clinic several times for assessments. Researchers will monitor safety by tracking treatment-emergent adverse events, and evaluate effectiveness through platelet response and remission rates. Measurements of drug levels and antibodies will also be taken. The study may last up to approximately 108 weeks, allowing detailed long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety of subcutaneous guselkumab injections in children with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, Crohns disease, or juvenile psoriatic arthritis. This Phase 3 study focuses on pediatric participants who have previously been treated with guselkumab and will continue therapy in this extension study to monitor safety over an extended period. Participants who completed dosing in one of three primary pediatric guselkumab studies and are deemed by their investigator to benefit from continued treatment will join this long-term extension. Guselkumab is administered as a subcutaneous injection either every 8 weeks or every 4 weeks, depending on prior study assignment and clinical status. Some participants may switch dosing frequency once during the extension before unblinding, after which dosing aligns with their original regimen. Dose adjustments are restricted based on the primary study they came from. During the study, participants will receive guselkumab injections regularly and be monitored for treatment-emergent adverse events for up to nearly seven years. Researchers will assess safety outcomes through ongoing clinical evaluations over this time. Parents or legal representatives provide consent for children to participate, and children capable of understanding the study will give assent. The total participation duration may extend up to six years and nine months, allowing long-term safety data collection.

Researchers are evaluating Enzomenib DSP-5336, an oral drug, in patients with various types of acute leukemia, including relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia AML, acute lymphocytic leukemia ALL, and acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage. The study also includes patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes MDS and relapsed multiple myeloma MM in selected sites. This phase 12 trial aims to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of DSP-5336 alone or combined with standard AML treatments, particularly in patients with specific genetic mutations like MLL rearrangement or NPM1 mutation. The study involves dose escalation and dose expansion of DSP-5336 administered orally. Participants may receive DSP-5336 alone or combined with standard AML regimens such as venetoclax plus azacitidine or intensive chemotherapy with cytarabine and daunorubicin 73. Different study arms include patients with or without certain medications like CYP3A4 inhibitor azoles, and those with specific genetic profiles. The trial evaluates recommended phase 2 doses for various patient groups and combination treatments. Participants will undergo assessments including monitoring for adverse events within 30 days after the last dose and evaluation of clinical responses approximately six months after treatment begins. Researchers will collect blood and bone marrow samples for genomic analysis and track drug levels in the body. Safety labs, ECGs, physical exams, and patient questionnaires will be performed throughout the study. The trial includes long-term follow-up of overall survival up to two years after treatment ends, with visits and tests scheduled to monitor health and treatment effects.

Researchers are evaluating camizestrant against standard endocrine therapy for patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer who have an intermediate or high risk of disease recurrence. These patients must have completed locoregional therapy and at least 2 to 5 years of standard adjuvant endocrine therapy. The study is a Phase III open-label trial focused on improving outcomes for these patients over a long-term period. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either camizestrant orally or continue with the standard endocrine therapy chosen by their investigator, which may include aromatase inhibitors exemestane, letrozole, anastrozole or tamoxifen. Treatment in each group lasts for 60 months. The study allows prior use of CDK46 inhibitors and includes a follow-up period extending up to 10 years from the last patient randomization. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments to monitor invasive breast cancer-free survival and other outcomes such as invasive disease-free survival, distant relapse-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Researchers will also evaluate symptoms like joint pain, hot flushes, and vaginal dryness using specific scales, along with quality of life measures and pharmacokinetics. Safety monitoring continues up to 28 days after the last dose, and participants remain under observation for up to 10 years total.

Primary immune thrombocytopenia ITP is a condition where the immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, the cells responsible for blood clotting, resulting in increased bleeding and bruising. This trial evaluates whether mezagitamab given as a subcutaneous injection can effectively maintain stable platelet counts in adults with chronic ITP compared to a placebo. The study is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to assess both the efficacy and safety of mezagitamab in this population. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either mezagitamab or a matching placebo by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The treatment schedule consists of 8 weekly doses followed by an 8-week break, then another 8 weekly doses, totaling up to 6 months of treatment. Those who finish this trial or do not respond to treatment by week 16 may have the option to join a continuation study to receive open-label mezagitamab if eligible and if the site is open. During the study, participants will visit the clinic multiple times for treatment and monitoring. Researchers will measure platelet responses, symptom changes using patient questionnaires, bleeding events, and blood concentrations of mezagitamab. Safety assessments include monitoring for anti-drug antibodies and adverse events. The primary outcome is the percentage of participants with a durable platelet response up to week 24. The trial is expected to complete in March 2028.

Researchers are evaluating nipocalimab compared to a placebo in adults with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus SLE, a chronic disease where the immune system attacks healthy tissues causing swelling and redness in various organs. This Phase 3 study aims to understand how well nipocalimab works in treating SLE symptoms and disease activity. Participants will receive either nipocalimab or a placebo alongside standard care treatments during a double-blind treatment period lasting up to 52 weeks. After this period, eligible participants from both groups may enter an open-label long-term extension phase to continue nipocalimab treatment until Week 156 or until discontinuation. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including measurement of disease activity, joint pain, fatigue, and flare status. Researchers will monitor responses such as the SLE Responder Index at Week 52, and track safety and treatment adherence. The total participation duration may extend up to approximately three years including the extension phase.

Psoriatic arthritis PsA is a long-lasting inflammatory condition affecting joints and skin in people with psoriasis. This trial evaluates how well the drug zasocitinib TAK-279 works in adults with active PsA, focusing on participants past experiences with certain treatments. The study is a phase 3 clinical trial designed to assess treatment effectiveness and safety. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups one receiving zasocitinib Dose A tablets once daily for up to 52 weeks, another receiving zasocitinib Dose B tablets once daily for up to 52 weeks, and a third group receiving a placebo once daily for 16 weeks followed by either Dose A or Dose B of zasocitinib once daily through week 52. This design allows comparison of doses and placebo effects during the early treatment period. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including joint counts and skin evaluations to monitor disease activity and response to treatment.
