Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of CYB003, a Deuterated Psilocin Analog, compared to a placebo when added to current antidepressant treatment in adults with moderate to severe Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). This Phase III trial focuses on participants aged 18 to 85 years who have had inadequate response to a stable antidepressant dose, aiming to better understand how CYB003 might improve depressive symptoms. Participants receive oral doses of CYB003 or matching placebo along with manualized psychological support provided by trained facilitators. The treatment period includes multiple dosing sessions with monitoring and assessments throughout. Placebo is used as a comparator to evaluate the combined safety and efficacy of CYB003 in this population. During the study, participants undergo evaluations using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) at several time points, including screening, baseline, and multiple days up to the end of treatment at Day 42. Researchers monitor symptoms, side effects, and overall safety. Participants provide informed consent and are assessed regularly to track changes in depression severity and any adverse events over the course of the study.

Researchers are studying a new treatment for HIV-1 infection that combines two medicines, islatravir and ulonivirine, taken once weekly. The goal is to see if this new study treatment works as well as the standard antiretroviral therapy (ART), which usually involves taking up to three medicines once or twice daily. This research also aims to learn about the safety and tolerability of the study treatment compared to the standard ART. The study compares the once-weekly combination of islatravir and ulonivirine with the standard daily treatment of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF). Participants will take either the study drugs or the standard drugs for 96 weeks. Some participants may receive matching placebos as part of the study design. The treatment is given orally as capsules or tablets according to the assigned group. Participants will be monitored throughout the study with regular assessments, including measuring the amount of HIV-1 virus in the blood to see if it is suppressed below 50 copies/mL at weeks 24 and 48. The study will also track any side effects or adverse events and whether participants stop the treatment due to these events. Overall, the study lasts about 96 weeks, with ongoing safety and effectiveness evaluations to understand how well the treatments work and how safe they are over time.

Researchers are studying a treatment called MK-2214 to see if it can slow certain brain changes in people with early Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a form of dementia that causes memory loss, difficulties with communication, and challenges in decision-making, which affect daily activities. The study aims to find out if MK-2214 can slow the spread of tau protein in the brain compared to a placebo and to assess the safety and tolerability of MK-2214. Participants will receive either MK-2214 or a placebo through an intravenous (IV) infusion. The study is designed as a phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial with parallel groups. The treatment period lasts up to about 23 months, during which participants will receive infusions as scheduled. The placebo looks like the study treatment but contains no active drug, helping researchers understand the treatment's effects. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for changes in tau protein levels in the brain using PET scans and for any adverse events or side effects. Researchers will track the number of participants experiencing adverse events and those who stop treatment because of them, with safety follow-up lasting up to approximately 26 months. Participants will also undergo brain imaging such as CT, PET, or MRI scans. The study involves regular assessments to measure the treatment's impact and ensure participant safety over the study duration.

Researchers are looking for new medicines to prevent HIV-1 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1) infection. The goals of this study are to learn: * If taking MK-8527 once a month works to prevent HIV-1 infection as well as or better than a standard (usual) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) taken once a day * About the safety of MK-8527 and if people tolerate it

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 evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Xeomin injections in preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3 clinical trial compares Xeomin to placebo injections given into muscles of the head and neck. Participants have chronic migraine diagnosed for at least 12 months and meet specific headache and migraine day criteria. The study aims to measure changes in monthly migraine days over time with Xeomin treatment. Participants will receive four treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. The treatments involve injections of either Xeomin or placebo solution prepared with sodium chloride. Visits occur approximately every 4 weeks, totaling 14 visits: the first, last, and four treatment visits are on-site, while the other eight visits are remote via phone or video call. During the study, participants will keep headache diaries to track migraine and headache days. Researchers will focus on the change in monthly migraine days from baseline to six months after the first injection. Safety and effectiveness are monitored throughout, with frequent assessments during both on-site and remote visits to ensure accurate tracking of migraine symptoms and any side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing episodic migraine. This phase 3 clinical trial focuses on adults who experience episodic migraine, aiming to measure changes in the number of migraine days per month. Participants must have a diagnosis of episodic migraine for at least 12 months and meet specific headache frequency criteria. Participants will receive four treatments of either Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck, with treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart. The entire trial lasts approximately 52 to 55 weeks, beginning with a screening period of 4 to 5 weeks. There are about 14 visits in total, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted on-site, while the other visits are held remotely via phone or video. Throughout the study, participants will track their migraine days using a headache diary, and researchers will assess changes in monthly migraine frequency from baseline to six months after the first injection. Regular monitoring includes both in-person and remote assessments. The primary outcome focuses on the change in monthly migraine days between baseline and month six after treatment initiation.

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 the safety of LY3954068 in people with early symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This Phase 1 study aims to understand how LY3954068 behaves in the body and its effects on markers of AD.
