Researchers are evaluating the study drug ALN-PNP, with and without another drug called tirzepatide, to see if they can help treat Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease MASLD, also known as fatty liver disease. ALN-PNP works by reducing a protein called PNPLA3 that liver cells produce, which may decrease liver fat when this protein is abnormal. The goal is to understand the effects of ALN-PNP alone and combined with tirzepatide on reducing liver fat. Participants will receive ALN-PNP with or without tirzepatide, or a placebo matching ALN-PNP, following a randomized and double-blind design. The study includes different groups and is conducted in two parts. Treatments are administered according to the study protocol, and the effects of these drugs on liver fat and other health measures will be compared over time. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly with assessments including liver fat measurements by MRI, blood tests to track drug levels, and safety evaluations to record any side effects. The main outcomes measured are the percentage change in liver fat at 24 and 48 weeks. Additional monitoring of side effects will continue through week 72. The total study duration extends up to March 2030.

Researchers are evaluating oral icotrokinra as a treatment for adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the large intestine causing ulcers in the colon lining. The study aims to assess how well icotrokinra works, along with its safety and tolerability in this population. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with a parallel group design including both adults and adolescents. Adult participants will be randomly assigned to receive either icotrokinra or placebo daily by mouth during a 12-week induction phase. At Week 12, those showing clinical response will enter a maintenance phase where they will continue icotrokinra or placebo daily for 40 weeks. Adults who do not respond will also enter the maintenance phase and receive icotrokinra. Adolescents will receive open-label icotrokinra during induction and then continue on icotrokinra during maintenance regardless of response. After completing the 40-week maintenance phase, eligible participants may join a long-term extension study. Participants will be monitored regularly through clinical assessments at specified time points including Week 12 for induction and Week 40 for maintenance. Outcomes measured include rates of clinical remission, symptom improvement, endoscopic and histologic healing, and quality of life scores. Safety will be evaluated by tracking adverse and serious adverse events throughout the study. The total study duration may extend up to approximately 6 years, ending in 2032, allowing long-term evaluation of icotrokinra in ulcerative colitis management.
