Researchers are evaluating ibuzatrelvir, an oral medication, to determine its effectiveness and safety in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older with COVID-19 who are not hospitalized but are at high risk for severe illness. The study is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind trial comparing ibuzatrelvir with a placebo. Participants must have confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection with symptoms starting within 5 days and meet specific risk factor criteria based on age. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ibuzatrelvir or a matching placebo twice daily by mouth for 5 days. The study allows co-administration of standard care treatments available locally. The total study duration is about 6 months, including follow-up. Participants will be monitored for emergency department visits related to COVID-19, hospitalizations, and mortality up to 28 days after starting treatment. Additional evaluations include symptom resolution, occurrence of long COVID symptoms, viral RNA levels, and safety measures such as adverse events through 24 weeks. The study involves regular assessments, including clinical visits and laboratory tests, to track outcomes and safety over time.

Researchers are studying the safety of BHV-1300 as a treatment for adults with Graves Disease. This Phase 1 trial aims to explore how BHV-1300 affects biomarkers related to this condition to better understand its impact. The study is led by Biohaven Therapeutics Ltd. and focuses on monitoring the treatments safety profile over time. Participants will receive BHV-1300, which is given as a subcutaneous injection. This open-label study does not include placebo control or blinding, and all participants receive the same treatment. The treatment period and follow-up extend up to 52 weeks to observe effects and any adverse events. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for serious adverse events, side effects that may lead to stopping treatment, and laboratory abnormalities. Researchers will regularly assess health status and collect data on disease-specific biomarkers. The total duration of participation is approximately one year, ensuring comprehensive safety and effect evaluations.

Researchers are examining the effect of abelacimab compared to a placebo in patients with atrial fibrillation AF who are considered unsuitable for oral anticoagulation therapy. This Phase 3 study focuses on high-risk patients with AF to evaluate whether abelacimab can reduce the occurrence of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism. The study is led by Anthos Therapeutics, Inc. and aims to address treatment options in patients where traditional anticoagulation is deemed inappropriate. Participants are randomly assigned in equal numbers to receive either abelacimab 150 mg or a matching placebo by subcutaneous injection once a month. The study consists of three periods a screening period lasting up to 60 days, a double-blind treatment period that continues until at least 111 patients experience a primary endpoint event, and an end-of-treatment visit. Following this, participants may enter a 30-day follow-up or an optional open-label extension to receive abelacimab, depending on eligibility and regulatory approval. During the study, participants undergo assessments to monitor stroke, systemic embolism, and bleeding events, with the primary outcomes measured up to 30 months. Safety is tracked by recording bleeding events classified by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium. Secondary outcomes include cardiovascular and all-cause mortality and other thrombotic events. The study also involves regular monitoring and follow-up visits to assess efficacy and safety throughout the treatment and observation periods.
