Researchers are studying the effects of the drug leflutrozole on semen quality in men aged 18 to 49 years with low testosterone levels. This phase 2 clinical trial aims to find out whether leflutrozole can improve semen quality and what side effects participants may experience compared to a placebo. The trial is sponsored by ReproNovo Aps and focuses on testicular function and hormone levels. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of three doses of leflutrozole 0.05 mg, 0.1 mg, or 0.3 mg or a placebo. The medication is taken orally once a week for 16 weeks. The study is double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who receives the drug or placebo. Checkups and tests occur every 4 weeks during the treatment period. Men in the trial will provide semen samples to measure sperm count, motility, and other quality markers. Blood tests will monitor hormone levels such as testosterone and estradiol, as well as safety markers including prostate-specific antigen and ECG readings. Questionnaires will assess changes in libido and energy. Researchers will track adverse events throughout the 16 weeks to evaluate safety and effectiveness.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of intermittent use of elismetrep in adults who experience acute migraine attacks. This Phase 3 study aims to monitor adverse events and overall safety during an average of one year of treatment. The study is conducted by Kallyope Inc. and compares two doses of elismetrep with a placebo using a randomized, triple-blind design. Participants will receive oral doses of elismetrep at either 10 mg or 20 mg, or a matching placebo. The study focuses on intermittent use during acute migraine episodes. Participants must have completed a prior acute treatment trial of elismetrep and meet compliance criteria. Treatment and assessments continue through the study duration, averaging one year. During the trial, participants will be monitored for any treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, and events leading to discontinuation. They will use a personal smartphone to complete eDiary check-ins and questionnaires, including assessments at 2 and 4 hours post-dose during migraine attacks. Safety and tolerability data will be collected throughout, with study participation lasting approximately one year.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KarXT combined with KarX-EC in adults aged 55 to 90 who have agitation related to Alzheimers Disease. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to address agitation symptoms in this population by comparing the investigational drugs with a placebo. The study is sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb and uses established diagnostic criteria for Alzheimers Disease. Participants will receive either the combination of XanomelineTrospium Chloride capsules KarXT KarX-EC or a placebo with specified doses on designated days. The study includes a parallel group design and treatment lasts for 14 weeks. The main focus is to assess changes in agitation using the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory-International Psychogeriatric Association CMAI-IPA total score. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including cognitive and behavioral evaluations, safety monitoring through vital signs, laboratory tests, electrocardiograms, and rating scales for movement disorders and suicidal ideation. Caregivers will be involved to help monitor participant status and medication compliance. The primary outcome is measured at Week 14, with safety follow-up extending to Week 18. Participants are expected to be engaged throughout the treatment period and follow-up assessments.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study. This trial focuses on patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study aims to assess how AZD0780 compares to placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, also known as MACE-PLUS, over the course of the trial. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 once daily or a matching placebo once daily. The study continues until a primary analysis censoring date, which may be up to approximately 54 months from randomization. After this, a study closure visit will be conducted as the final visit for each participant. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, urgent coronary revascularizations, and other related outcomes. Researchers will track the time to first occurrence of these events as the primary outcome. Safety and other secondary outcomes like all-cause mortality will also be assessed. The total participation time can last up to about 54 months, with ongoing evaluations throughout this period.

This research aims to compare two approaches for treating previously untreated amblyopia in children aged 3 to under 13 years. It evaluates whether using glasses and patching at the same time leads to similar improvements in vision as first using glasses alone, followed by patching only if needed. The trial focuses on children with amblyopia caused by differences in eye alignment or prescription errors. Children will be assigned randomly to one of two treatment groups one group will wear glasses full-time and add patching for 2 hours daily only if there is no improvement after glasses alone the other group will wear glasses and patch the weaker eye for 2 hours daily at the same time from the start. Vision tests will be done at baseline and follow-up visits every 8 weeks for up to 56 weeks. Participants will have their distance visual acuity measured with trial frames before and after getting their glasses to confirm eligibility. During the study, vision will be monitored to classify improvement or stability, guiding whether patching is needed in the sequential group. Outcomes include changes in vision clarity after 56 weeks and quality-of-life assessments. Regular visits help track progress and safety until study completion.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a new medicine called NNC0487-0111 in people who have Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction HFpEF or Heart Failure with mildly reduced Ejection Fraction HFmrEF and excess body weight. This phase 3 clinical trial aims to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating these conditions compared to a placebo. Participants have HFpEF or HFmrEF and a body mass index of 30 or above. The study is sponsored by Novo Nordisk AS and uses a randomized, quadruple-masked design. Participants will receive either NNC0487-0111 or a matching placebo by injection under the skin once a week. The NNC0487-0111 is given in increasing doses over time. The study is parallel in design, meaning participants are randomly assigned to one of the two groups and receive that treatment throughout the trial. This treatment period extends for up to about 165 weeks. The study evaluates the time to certain heart failure events, hospitalizations, cardiovascular deaths, and other major cardiovascular events. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to assess heart failure outcomes and kidney function, as well as quality of life using questionnaires like the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. Safety and effectiveness are assessed through hospital visits, heart failure event tracking, and blood tests including kidney function and blood sugar levels. The total participation spans over three years, with ongoing evaluations to measure the time to heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes. Participants receive close medical monitoring throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating insulin icodec, a once-weekly insulin injection, compared to insulin glargine, a once-daily injection. This study focuses on adults with type 1 diabetes to see how well the weekly insulin controls blood sugar when combined with insulin aspart, which is taken 2 to 4 times daily. The trial aims to assess blood sugar control over about 8.5 months. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either insulin icodec once a week with insulin aspart daily or insulin glargine once a day with insulin aspart daily. Both insulins are given as subcutaneous injections. The study is designed as a parallel comparison to evaluate the effects of these insulin regimens on blood sugar control. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including blood tests to measure HbA1c and glucose levels, monitoring of hypoglycemic episodes, and tracking of insulin doses and body weight. The primary outcome is the change in HbA1c from baseline to week 26. Secondary outcomes include time spent in target glucose ranges and frequency of low blood sugar events. The study will last about 8.5 months with ongoing monitoring to evaluate treatment effects and safety.

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 evaluates the effectiveness of dotinurad compared with allopurinol in lowering serum uric acid levels in adults with gout-related hyperuricemia. The study focuses on reducing uric acid to below 6.0 mgdL after 24 weeks of treatment, addressing a common complication in gout patients. It is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind study involving adult participants aged 18 to 75 years with a history of gout. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups one group continues allopurinol at their existing dose once daily through week 64 the second group receives dotinurad starting at 1 mg once daily for the first 4 weeks, then 2 mg once daily through week 64 the third group begins with 1 mg daily for 4 weeks, increases to 2 mg daily for 8 weeks, then continues 4 mg daily through week 64. All treatments are administered orally as over-encapsulated tablets. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular monitoring of serum uric acid levels and gout flares from baseline up to week 68. Assessments include measuring the percentage of participants achieving target uric acid levels at various points, gout flare rates, and treatment-emergent adverse events. The study also evaluates safety and tolerability over the course of the treatment period, which lasts up to approximately 68 weeks including follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy of dotinurad compared with allopurinol in lowering serum uric acid sUA levels in adults with tophaceous gout. This Phase 3 trial focuses on adult participants aged 18 to 75 years who have measurable tophi and a diagnosis of gout for at least one year. The study aims to assess how well dotinurad reduces sUA levels at Week 24 compared to allopurinol, an established treatment for this condition. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. One group will stop their current allopurinol and continue with study-supplied allopurinol once daily through Week 76. The other group will discontinue allopurinol and start dotinurad at 1 mg daily for the first 4 weeks, then increase to 2 mg daily for the next 8 weeks, and finally 4 mg daily thereafter until Week 76. Both treatments are given as oral tablets, and participants are closely monitored throughout the study. During the study, participants will undergo various assessments including blood tests to measure serum uric acid levels at multiple time points, evaluation of tophi response, and tracking of gout flare frequency and severity. Safety monitoring will include recording any adverse events and serious side effects up to Week 80. The main outcome measures focus on the percentage of participants achieving target sUA levels at Week 24 and clinical responses in tophi at Week 76, with ongoing evaluations up to Week 80 to assess longer-term effects and safety.
