Participants may withdraw from the study at any time, and the total participation lasts up to 55 weeks.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ELAPR002f injectable gel in adults with moderate to severe atrophic acne scars. These scars are flat or indented marks that remain after acne heals and can affect quality of life through reduced self-esteem and embarrassment. The study is a controlled, randomized trial including about 395 adults with scarring on both cheeks, conducted at multiple sites in the United States. Participants are divided into two cohorts. Cohort 1 receives ELAPR002f injectable gel openly, while Cohort 2 participants are randomly assigned to receive either ELAPR002f gel or a saline control via intradermal injections. Treatments are given on Days 1, 31, and 61. After the three treatment sessions over two months, participants are followed for up to 12 months to observe outcomes and any side effects. During the study, participants will have regular visits at a clinic or hospital for medical assessments, blood tests, and questionnaires to monitor their progress and any side effects. Researchers will measure the percentage of participants who achieve at least a 20% reduction in acne scar area and various safety parameters, including injection site responses and changes in vital signs and laboratory values. The total study duration for each participant can be up to 420 days.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of adding ponsegromab to systemic chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy plus placebo for adults with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma mPDAC who have cachexia, a condition causing significant weight loss and fatigue. This Phase 2b3 randomized, double-blind, multinational study focuses on first-line treatment for this advanced cancer and associated cachexia. Participants will receive standard first-line chemotherapy regimens, either nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine or FOLFIRINOX, combined with either ponsegromab at one of two doses or a matching placebo. Study intervention is given subcutaneously every four weeks starting on the same day as the chemotherapy cycle and prior to chemotherapy administration. After Phase 2b, one ponsegromab dose will be selected for Phase 3, and participants will either continue or switch to that dose while remaining blinded. An optional open-label extension allows participants to receive ponsegromab for up to 12 months after the double-blind phase. During the study, participants will have tumor assessments approximately every 6 to 8 weeks by independent radiologists. Researchers will measure changes in body weight, anorexia symptoms, physical activity, muscle and fat tissue quality, overall survival, and treatment safety through laboratory tests, adverse event monitoring, and patient questionnaires. The study duration extends through Phase 3 with ongoing monitoring until key survival events occur, with an additional optional sub-study assessing caregiver quality of life.

Researchers are evaluating the study medicine PF-08046054 compared to the standard treatment docetaxel in adults with non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that has PD-L1 expression of 1% or higher. These participants have cancer that has spread or cannot be treated with surgery or definitive radiation and have shown disease progression during or after previous treatments including PD-L1 or PD-1 inhibitors, platinum-based chemotherapy, and targeted therapies for known genomic alterations. The study is a randomized phase 3 trial assessing treatment options for advanced NSCLC. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one receives PF-08046054 as an intravenous IV infusion twice during each 21-day cycle, and the other receives docetaxel as an IV infusion once every 21 days. The study treatment may continue for up to 5 years if the participants cancer responds to therapy. Both treatments are given in cycles, and participants receive the medicine through infusions during clinic visits. During the study, participants will have regular clinic visits to monitor their health and how well the treatment is working. Assessments include measuring overall survival, progression-free survival, tumor response rates, and quality of life through questionnaires. Safety is monitored for adverse events up to 90 days after treatment ends. Blood samples are also taken to study the medicines levels and immune response. The total study duration can be up to 5 years depending on individual responses and outcomes.

Researchers are conducting a randomized controlled trial to compare survival outcomes between robotic-assisted laparoscopy and open hysterectomy with lymph node assessment for early-stage cervical cancer. The study aims to determine if robotic hysterectomy with tumor containment before colpotomy is not worse than abdominal hysterectomy in terms of disease-free survival. It includes patients with specific cervical cancer stages and tumor sizes suitable for surgery. Participants will undergo either a radical or simple hysterectomy using either traditional open surgery or a robotic-assisted technique. In the robotic group, the vagina is closed before colpotomy, and certain vaginal manipulators are not allowed. Both groups may have salpingectomy and oophorectomy with or without ovarian transposition. Surgeons will document operative details, including any complications, blood loss, and reasons for conversion to open surgery. During the trial, participants will be closely monitored with preoperative assessments like labs, EKG, and MRI to confirm eligibility. Surgical findings and complications will be recorded. The primary outcome measured is survival at 36 months. Participants must provide informed consent and undergo follow-up to assess disease status and survival over the study period, which extends until 2030.
