Researchers are studying MK-1084, a targeted therapy, to see if it can treat advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with KRAS G12C mutations. This substudy is part of the larger KEYMAKER-U01 master protocol and aims to evaluate the safety of MK-1084 in combination with other treatments and how well the cancer responds to these therapies in patients who have already received prior treatments. Participants receive MK-1084 orally along with other treatments including patritumab deruxtecan, sacituzumab tirumotecan, and cetuximab, all given through intravenous infusions. Some participants may also receive rescue medications such as antihistamines, acetaminophen, dexamethasone, or steroid mouthwash to help prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. The study includes a phase 1b/2 design with rolling arms to assess these investigational agents in previously treated patients. During the study, participants are monitored for adverse events, dose-limiting toxicities, and treatment discontinuations due to side effects for up to about 5 years. Researchers measure how many participants experience tumor shrinkage or disappearance (objective response rate). Tissue samples and biopsies are collected before treatment to confirm KRAS G12C mutation status. The study includes ongoing safety and effectiveness evaluations throughout the treatment and follow-up periods.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of trontinemab in people aged 50 to 90 with early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, ranging from mild cognitive impairment to mild dementia. This Phase III clinical trial focuses on those who show evidence of Alzheimer's pathology and have a recent history of cognitive decline. The study aims to measure changes in cognitive function over 72 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either intravenous trontinemab or a placebo. The trial is designed as a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active drug or placebo. The treatment period lasts up to 72 weeks, during which participants will undergo various assessments to monitor their cognitive status and safety. During the study, participants will complete clinical tests including cognitive assessments and imaging such as MRI, PET scans, or cerebrospinal fluid analysis to confirm Alzheimer's pathology. A study partner will assist participants as needed. Researchers will track changes from the start of the study through week 72 using tools like the Clinical Dementia Rating. Safety monitoring and adherence to study procedures will also be closely observed throughout the trial.

Researchers are investigating whether buntanetap/Posiphen can help treat early Alzheimer's disease in adults aged 55 to 85 years. This Phase 3 study aims to find out if buntanetap/Posiphen improves thinking abilities and daily functioning compared to a placebo. It also evaluates the safety of buntanetap/Posiphen by monitoring any medical issues that participants may experience during the trial. Participants will take either a 30 mg capsule of buntanetap/Posiphen or a placebo capsule by mouth once daily for 18 months. The study includes regular clinic visits at screening, enrollment, and months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18. During some visits, participants will have brain MRI scans. The study uses a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active drug or placebo. Throughout the study, participants will complete tests and questionnaires to measure cognitive function and daily living activities, including the ADAS-Cog13 and ADCS-iADL scales. Phone calls before and after visits help track progress and adherence. Safety is closely monitored with ongoing assessments from screening through the 18-month treatment period.

Researchers are evaluating whether the drugs retatrutide and tirzepatide can prevent major adverse liver outcomes (MALO) in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) who are at high risk. This Phase 3 trial enrolls about 4,500 adults with MASLD identified by non-invasive tests indicating an increased likelihood of developing serious liver problems. The study aims to understand how these treatments might affect liver health over time compared to a placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either retatrutide, tirzepatide, or a placebo, all given by subcutaneous injection. The study will last approximately 224 weeks, during which participants may attend 25 to 30 clinic visits for monitoring and assessment. After the main study, eligible participants can join an optional 2-year extension where all will receive either retatrutide or tirzepatide regardless of their original group. Throughout the trial, participants’ liver function and disease progression will be closely monitored through various health assessments. Researchers will track the time to the first major adverse liver event as the main outcome. Safety and health status will be evaluated regularly during clinic visits, ensuring thorough observation over the long study period.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two different dose schedules of pegozafermin compared to a placebo in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) who have liver fibrosis at stage F2 or F3. This phase 3 study focuses on improving liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis in this patient group, which involves chronic liver disease associated with metabolic dysfunction. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study compares two doses of pegozafermin to assess their impact on liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis. The treatment period lasts up to 52 weeks, with outcomes measured at this time point. During the study, participants will be monitored for improvements in liver fibrosis and resolution of steatohepatitis without worsening fibrosis by week 52. Researchers will also track the time until any disease progression occurs, up to 5 years. Throughout the trial, safety and efficacy will be carefully assessed through clinical evaluations and laboratory tests to ensure participant well-being.

Researchers are evaluating alisertib monotherapy in patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who have already undergone treatment with a platinum-based chemotherapy and an anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy. This Phase 2 study aims to identify biomarker-defined subgroups that might benefit most from alisertib and to assess the drug's effectiveness, safety, and how it is processed by the body. Participants may have received up to two prior systemic anti-cancer therapies for SCLC. The study involves giving patients alisertib in the form of enteric-coated tablets. The study focuses on a specific group of patients who have progressed after previous treatments. There are no details provided about dosing schedules or additional treatment periods within the source. During the study, researchers will measure outcomes such as objective response rate, duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival, all assessed within biomarker-defined subgroups up to 36 months from the first dose. Participants will be monitored throughout this period to evaluate these outcomes and to observe safety and pharmacokinetics.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of two drugs, eltrekibart and mirikizumab, in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This study is a phase 2 trial lasting about 4 to 5 years, aiming to understand how well these treatments work alone or together for this chronic condition. Participants will receive either eltrekibart alone, mirikizumab alone, a combination of both, or a placebo. The treatments are administered as drugs, and the study includes a screening period of up to 35 days before enrollment. The total participation time for each person is approximately 69 weeks, which includes the screening and treatment periods. During the trial, participants will be closely monitored to assess the percentage who achieve clinical remission by week 12. Researchers will conduct regular evaluations, which may include medical assessments and questionnaires, to track the safety and effects of the treatments. The study emphasizes careful follow-up to ensure participant safety and to gather detailed information about the therapies over the entire study duration.

Researchers are evaluating nemtabrutinib compared with the investigator's choice of ibrutinib or acalabrutinib in adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have not received any prior therapy. This Phase 3 study aims to determine if nemtabrutinib is not worse than ibrutinib or acalabrutinib in terms of objective response rate and if it is better regarding progression-free survival, both assessed using standardized disease criteria by independent review. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the three oral treatments: nemtabrutinib, ibrutinib, or acalabrutinib. The study compares the effectiveness of nemtabrutinib against the other two drugs chosen by the investigator to treat first-line CLL/SLL. Treatment continues with monitoring over months to assess response and disease progression. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations based on the International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia criteria, including blinded independent central reviews of their disease status. Researchers will track objective response rates up to about 33 months and progression-free survival up to around 104 months. Participants will also be monitored for safety and treatment adherence throughout the trial period.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of adding Tersolisib (LY4064809/STX-478) to other anti-cancer drugs as the first treatment for adults with advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer. This phase 3 study focuses on participants whose cancer has a specific genetic change called a PIK3CA mutation and who have not received prior treatment for advanced breast cancer. The study aims to understand how well this treatment combination works and its safety over time. Participants will receive Tersolisib or a placebo, combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (Ribociclib, Palbociclib, or Abemaciclib) and endocrine therapy (Anastrozole, Letrozole, Exemestane, or Fulvestrant). All drugs are given orally except for Fulvestrant, which is given by injection into the muscle. The study includes two parts: Part 1 allows participants who have had up to two prior treatments for advanced breast cancer, including chemotherapy; Part 2 includes those with no prior treatment for advanced disease and classifies them as endocrine sensitive or resistant based on their cancer history. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for cancer response, progression-free survival, and side effects. Researchers will monitor measurable disease or bone involvement and track overall response rates, including complete or partial tumor shrinkage. The study will continue as long as the treatment is helping without causing unbearable side effects. Follow-up may last up to five years to observe long-term outcomes and safety.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of zilovertamab vedotin (ZV) combined with standard treatments for participants with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (rrDLBCL). It is a Phase 2/3, randomized, open-label, multisite study including participants aged 18 and older. The study tests two main hypotheses: that ZV combined with rituximab, gemcitabine, and oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) is better than R-GemOx alone for progression-free survival; and that ZV combined with bendamustine rituximab (BR) is better than BR alone. However, enrollment in the BR and ZV + BR arms is discontinued, so no outcome analysis will be done for those groups. The study is split into two parts: Part 1 confirms the dose of ZV, and Part 2 expands to evaluate its efficacy. Participants receive intravenous infusions of ZV at various doses, along with standard drugs including rituximab, gemcitabine, oxaliplatin, and bendamustine as appropriate. Prophylactic granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is given with each ZV cycle according to institutional guidelines. Treatment schedules and doses are carefully managed to assess safety and treatment effects. During the study, participants will be monitored for dose-limiting toxicities up to about 6 weeks, and adverse events for up to approximately 68 months. Researchers will also track treatment discontinuations due to adverse events. Key outcomes include overall survival and progression-free survival up to about 35 months. Participants will have regular assessments including scans, clinical evaluations, and laboratory tests to measure response and monitor safety throughout their participation.
