Researchers are evaluating KT-621, an oral drug, for its safety and effectiveness in treating adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe eosinophilic asthma. This Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to understand how KT-621 affects lung function and asthma control compared to a placebo. The study is sponsored by Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. and seeks to provide detailed information on KT-621s behavior in the body and its tolerability. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups receiving different doses of KT-621 or a matching placebo. The treatment period lasts 12 weeks, during which participants take the study drug orally. The trial includes regular assessments to monitor lung function, asthma symptoms, and quality of life, with additional follow-up extending to 16 weeks to evaluate safety and drug levels in the blood. Throughout the study, participants will attend scheduled visits for lung function tests, questionnaires about asthma control and quality of life, and blood sampling to measure drug concentration and monitor safety. Researchers will track changes in lung function from the start through Week 12 and observe any adverse events up to Week 16. Participants are expected to comply with all study visits, treatments, and procedures, including keeping an electronic diary to record relevant health information.

This research aims to evaluate mezagitamab for adults with primary Immunoglobulin A nephropathy IgAN, a kidney disease caused by immune protein buildup leading to inflammation and potential kidney damage. The study will compare how mezagitamab affects protein levels in urine proteinuria against a placebo, focusing on safety, tolerability, and maintenance of kidney function over time. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive mezagitamab or a placebo injection subcutaneously over approximately 22 weeks in the main group, with a 21 ratio favoring mezagitamab. An open-label group includes participants with specific proteinuria or kidney filtration levels, including those from a prior related study, all receiving mezagitamab in the same manner. After treatment, participants will be observed for about 1.5 years with regular check-ups. During the study, participants will attend multiple clinic visits for treatment and monitoring. Researchers will measure changes in proteinuria at Week 36 as the primary outcome, as well as kidney filtration rates over one and two years. Safety and long-term kidney function will be closely monitored throughout the 2-year participation period.

This research aims to evaluate the antiviral effects of S-337395 compared with a placebo in adults who are not hospitalized but have respiratory syncytial virus RSV infection and are at high risk of progressing to severe disease. Participants must start treatment within 72 hours of showing RSV symptoms. The study is a Phase 2b trial and involves adults with specific risk factors such as older age and chronic lung or cardiovascular disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a high dose or low dose of S-337395, or a matching placebo. The treatment is given orally twice daily for up to 5 days. The study is double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is being administered during the trial. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored closely with assessments including nasal swabs to measure RSV RNA levels at several time points up to day 6. Researchers will also track symptoms using questionnaires and record any side effects up to 28 days. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug levels, and safety will be monitored throughout the study, which runs until December 2026.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a medicine called BI 764198 in adults and adolescents who have a kidney condition known as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis FSGS. This Phase 3 clinical trial aims to determine whether BI 764198 helps improve kidney function in people with primary FSGS or genetic FSGS linked to TRPC6 gene variants. The study is randomized and placebo-controlled, meaning participants are randomly assigned to receive either the medicine or a placebo, and neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment each person receives. Participants take either BI 764198 tablets or placebo tablets once a day for up to two years, while continuing their usual medication for FSGS. The study involves two groups running in parallel. The main treatment period lasts 104 weeks about two years, during which the participants regularly visit the study site approximately every three months. Both groups are compared to see if BI 764198 affects kidney protein levels and function. During the study, participants provide urine samples regularly to assess their kidney health. Researchers measure changes in urine protein-creatinine ratio and kidney filtration rate from the start to the end of the treatment period. Questionnaires about health-related quality of life are also completed. Doctors monitor participants health and note any side effects throughout the two years. This thorough follow-up helps understand how BI 764198 impacts kidney disease and overall well-being.

Researchers are studying the effects and safety of the medicine PF-07275315 for adults aged 35 to 80 with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. COPD makes breathing difficult and reduces quality of life. This clinical trial aims to evaluate PF-07275315 compared to placebo to assess its potential as a treatment for COPD. Participants will receive either multiple injections of PF-07275315 or placebo shots in a clinic over 24 weeks for the Phase 2 part and 52 weeks for the Phase 3 part. The study uses a randomized and parallel design to compare outcomes between the groups. Phase 2 participants will have 11 clinic visits over about 40 weeks, while Phase 3 participants will have 18 visits over about 68 weeks. During the trial, participants will undergo lung function tests including forced expiratory volume FEV1 measurements, and assessments of COPD exacerbations. Researchers will monitor safety, adverse events, and changes in respiratory symptoms and quality of life. The study includes regular clinic visits for treatment and evaluations, with the total duration depending on the phase of participation.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a medicine called PF-07275315 for treating adults with moderate-to-severe asthma that is not well controlled. The study focuses on adults aged 18 to 70 who have had asthma for at least 12 months and have been on regular maintenance treatments. Asthma is a condition that makes breathing difficult and can reduce quality of life and daily functioning. Participants will receive either PF-07275315 or a placebo through multiple injections under the skin during clinic visits over a 12-week period. The study is randomized and blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the medicine or placebo. The trial includes several experimental groups receiving different doses of PF-07275315 and a group receiving placebo to compare safety and effects. The study includes a 12-week treatment phase. During about 7.5 months of involvement, participants will attend nine clinic visits. Researchers will monitor lung function using tests like forced expiratory volume in 1 second FEV1, record any side effects or adverse events, and assess asthma control and quality of life through questionnaires. Safety will be followed for 24 weeks, including lab tests, vital signs, and heart monitoring. This helps understand how PF-07275315 affects lung function and overall health in asthma patients.

Researchers are evaluating depemokimab as a treatment for adults aged 40 to 80 with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD who have type 2 inflammation and uncontrolled symptoms despite standard care. The study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of depemokimab compared to a placebo when added to the usual treatment. This phase 3 trial is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and focuses on reducing COPD exacerbations and improving respiratory symptoms over a long period. Participants will receive either depemokimab by subcutaneous injection alongside their standard inhaler therapy or a placebo injection plus standard care. The study is randomized, double-blind, and includes two groups one receiving depemokimab and the other a placebo, both continuing optimized inhaler treatments. This study will last up to 104 weeks, with regular assessments throughout. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations including lung function tests, symptom questionnaires such as the COPD assessment test and St. Georges Respiratory Questionnaire, and monitoring for COPD flare-ups or hospital visits. Researchers will track the number and severity of exacerbations and changes in quality of life measures. Safety and tolerability will also be closely monitored throughout the trial duration, which extends up to two years.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of VX-147 in adults and children aged 10 to 65 who have APOL1-mediated proteinuric kidney disease. This study includes participants with specific APOL1 genotypes and aims to understand how VX-147 affects kidney function over time in this population. Participants are randomly assigned to receive different doses of VX-147 or a matching placebo. Those in the initial phase Part A will receive their assigned treatment for at least 96 weeks. Participants who complete Part A will then receive VX-147 for an additional 96 weeks in Part B. The study uses tablets taken orally and includes a placebo control group. During the trial, participants will be monitored regularly for changes in urine protein to creatinine ratio and kidney function measured by estimated glomerular filtration rate eGFR. Safety and tolerability are assessed through tracking adverse events throughout the study, which may last around four years after the last participant enrolls. Blood levels of VX-147 will also be measured, and pediatric participants will be asked about their satisfaction with the tablet form.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of two different oral doses of vapendavir VPV compared to a placebo in adults aged 40 to 85 years who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD and rhinovirus infections. The goal is to determine the appropriate dose of VPV to reduce the severity and duration of respiratory symptoms caused by these infections. This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind clinical trial sponsored by Altesa Biosciences, Inc. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups VPV 1000 mg, VPV 500 mg, or placebo. The first dose is taken at the study site with food, followed by a second dose taken at home the next morning with food. Subsequent doses are taken every 24 hours with food for a total of 7 doses. The study uses a parallel design to compare these groups over the treatment period. During the study, participants will complete daily assessments of respiratory symptoms using the Evaluating Respiratory Symptoms E-RS tool for up to 42 days following a 12-week baseline period. Additional measurements include lung function tests, oscillometry assessments, patient global impressions, and symptom surveys at specific time points throughout the study. Safety and efficacy are closely monitored, with participants followed until the study ends in November 2027.
