Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the drugs eltrekibart and mirikizumab in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis UC, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. This Phase 2 study aims to find out how these treatments work alone or in combination to improve UC symptoms and health. The study is sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company and will last about 4 to 5 years, including screening. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of several treatments eltrekibart with a placebo, mirikizumab with a placebo, both drugs together, or placebo alone. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment is given to ensure unbiased results. The treatment period includes dosing with the study drugs or placebo, and participants will be monitored for safety and response. Participants will be involved in the trial for around 69 weeks, including a screening period of up to 35 days before starting treatment. Throughout the study, they will undergo assessments to measure clinical remission, response, endoscopic improvement, and quality of life using questionnaires. Blood samples will be taken to study drug levels, and researchers will monitor safety and disease activity regularly. The main outcome is the percentage of participants achieving clinical remission at Week 12, with additional measures assessed up to Week 52.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety of rimegepant in children and adolescents aged 6 to under 18 years for the acute treatment of migraine, including migraines with or without aura. The study focuses on understanding the safety profile of this medication when used over an extended period in this younger population. Participants receive rimegepant orally in doses of 75 mg, 50 mg, or 35 mg as orally disintegrating tablets. The study is open-label and single-group, meaning all participants receive the active drug. The treatment period lasts up to 58 weeks, during which the medication is assessed for safety and tolerability. Throughout the study, participants are monitored for adverse events, including serious side effects and lab abnormalities. Researchers track the frequency and severity of these events, including any liver-related issues. The study includes blood sampling and requires participants to distinguish migraine attacks from other headaches. The total participation spans up to 58 weeks to ensure comprehensive safety data collection.

Researchers are comparing the rates of surgical and minimally invasive interventions, as well as any harms, in Medicare beneficiaries treated with the MILD procedure versus those treated with interspinous process decompression IPD for lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. This observational study uses Medicare claims data to follow patients for 24 months after their initial procedure starting from January 1, 2017. The purpose is to evaluate outcomes between these two types of procedures without requiring prior patient enrollment or consent. The study includes two groups patients who received MILD, which is a percutaneous image-guided lumbar decompression performed under fluoroscopic guidance through a dorsal approach to the spine, and patients who received IPD, a different device-based decompression procedure. Data on reoperations and complications will be collected for both groups over a 24-month follow-up period using Medicare claims. Enrollment continues until the sponsor decides to stop. Participants involvement is passive as the study uses existing Medicare claims data. Researchers will monitor rates of harms related to the initial procedure and subsequent surgical or minimally invasive interventions over two years. No direct patient visits or interventions are conducted, and the study is exempt from institutional review board oversight. The total study duration extends to December 2026, covering cases treated since early 2017.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of BHV-3000 rimegepant compared to a placebo for treating moderate to severe migraine attacks in children and adolescents aged 6 to under 18 years. This Phase 3 clinical trial focuses on acute migraine treatment in a pediatric population, aiming to measure pain freedom two hours after dosing and other migraine-related symptoms to understand how well the treatment works in this age group. Participants receive either BHV-3000 rimegepant 75 mg or 50 mg orally disintegrating tablet ODT, or a matching placebo tablet. The study uses a randomized, double-blind design where participants are assigned to one of these groups. The trial monitors the effects of the medication shortly after administration and compares outcomes between the active drug and placebo groups. During the study, participants will be assessed for pain relief, freedom from the most bothersome migraine symptoms, and need for rescue medication within 24 to 48 hours after treatment. Researchers will also evaluate sustained pain freedom and the ability to function normally following the migraine attack. Various outcome measures include pain and symptom assessments at 2 hours post-dose, along with tracking medication use and migraine impact. The trial lasts until the primary completion date in January 2029, with ongoing safety and efficacy monitoring throughout.
