Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tenapanor in adults with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation CIC. This study is a 26-week, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial followed by a 4-week treatment-free safety follow-up period. It aims to compare three different doses of tenapanor with a placebo taken twice daily to assess their impact on constipation symptoms. The study includes a 2-week screening period to confirm eligibility, followed by a 26-week randomized treatment period where patients receive either 5 mg, 25 mg, or 50 mg of tenapanor twice daily, or a matching placebo. Patients record their constipation symptoms daily in an electronic diary. After the treatment period, there is a 4-week safety follow-up without treatment to monitor any adverse effects. Participants will have regular visits every 2 to 6 weeks for safety checks including medical assessments, vital signs, ECG, and lab tests. Their symptom diaries will be reviewed throughout the study. The main outcome measured is the durable complete spontaneous bowel movements response at 12 weeks. Secondary outcomes include changes in bowel movement frequency, stool consistency, and straining. The total study duration is approximately 32 weeks including all phases.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and efficacy of the study drug LY4065967 for treating diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain DPNP. This trial is part of a larger chronic pain master protocol designed to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain conditions. The study focuses on adults with DPNP related to type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either LY4065967 or a placebo, both taken orally. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives the active drug or placebo. The treatment period lasts eight weeks, during which participants take the assigned study drug daily. Throughout the trial, participants will report their pain intensity and other symptoms at the start and after eight weeks using various scales, including the Numeric Rating Scale and Brief Pain Inventory. Researchers will also monitor sleep quality, emotional functioning, and the use of rescue medication. Safety and tolerability will be assessed, and the study concludes in July 2027.

Researchers are conducting a master protocol study to evaluate multiple pain treatments for people experiencing chronic pain conditions such as osteoarthritis of the knee, diabetic neuropathic pain, and chronic low back pain. This study aims to compare different pain interventions by using a flexible design where specific intervention appendices ISAs can begin independently as new treatments become available. The study is sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company and is designed as a phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Participants may receive one of several study drugs administered either intravenously or orally, including LY3016859 given through IV and LY3556050, LY3526318, and LY3857210 given orally. Each treatment group is compared to a matching placebo group. The study uses a parallel design where participants are assigned randomly to one of the intervention groups or placebo. The protocol includes disease-state addenda to define target populations and assessment scales for each pain condition. During the trial, participants undergo screening to confirm eligibility based on pain levels, history, and health status. They are monitored for outcomes such as the number of participants allocated to each intervention up to week 8. Researchers assess pain and other health measures while participants maintain consistent use of any ongoing non-drug pain therapies and discontinue other chronic pain medications except for rescue use. The study includes safety monitoring and will continue through April 2027, with results posted for each intervention.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of elecoglipron, an oral tablet taken once daily, for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight. This Phase III global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes two independent pivotal studies one in adults without type 2 diabetes T2DM and the other in adults with T2DM, all having at least one weight-related health condition. The goal is to understand how elecoglipron compares to placebo when combined with diet and exercise. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of elecoglipron or a matching placebo daily. Study 1 involves about 3000 adults living with obesity or overweight without T2DM, while Study 2 involves about 1500 adults with obesity or overweight and T2DM. Both studies last 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures will be monitored. During the trial, participants will undergo regular health assessments including measurements of body weight, waist circumference, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and other related health indicators. Researchers will track percent change in body weight from baseline at 72 weeks as the primary outcome. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatment in managing weight and associated health conditions.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study. This trial focuses on patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study aims to assess how AZD0780 compares to placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, also known as MACE-PLUS, over the course of the trial. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 once daily or a matching placebo once daily. The study continues until a primary analysis censoring date, which may be up to approximately 54 months from randomization. After this, a study closure visit will be conducted as the final visit for each participant. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, urgent coronary revascularizations, and other related outcomes. Researchers will track the time to first occurrence of these events as the primary outcome. Safety and other secondary outcomes like all-cause mortality will also be assessed. The total participation time can last up to about 54 months, with ongoing evaluations throughout this period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a new medicine called CagriSema in helping adults living with obesity, with or without type 2 diabetes, to lose weight. This phase 3 clinical study compares two different weekly doses of CagriSema against an existing medicine, semaglutide. The study aims to understand how well these treatments support weight loss over a long period. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive one of three treatments CagriSema at dose level 1, CagriSema at dose level 2, or semaglutide. Each treatment is given by weekly injection under the skin for 72 weeks. The study lasts about 83 weeks, covering treatment and follow-up periods to observe effects and safety. During the study, participants will have regular assessments to monitor body weight, body mass index BMI, waist size, cholesterol levels, blood sugar control HbA1c, and quality of life. Researchers will track changes from the start of treatment to the end of 72 weeks, including weight loss milestones and health measurements. Safety will also be closely monitored through reports of any adverse events until the study ends.

Researchers are evaluating the long-term effects of aleniglipron, a drug taken orally, in adults with overweight or obesity who also have type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study designed to assess the drugs effectiveness, safety, and tolerability over an extended period. The study focuses on the management of weight and diabetes in this population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either aleniglipron or a placebo, all administered orally. The treatment period lasts for 76 weeks, during which participants will take multiple doses of the assigned medication. The study includes three different aleniglipron arms and one placebo arm, all aiming to evaluate weight change and diabetes control over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments to measure changes in body weight, waist circumference, HbA1c levels, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. The primary outcome is the percent change in body weight from the start of the study to week 76. Secondary outcomes include the proportion of participants achieving various levels of weight loss and diabetes targets. The study also monitors safety and tolerability during the treatment period, which lasts approximately 76 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of brenipatide compared to a placebo for reducing the risk of relapse to cigarette smoking in adults who have recently quit. The study is a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial focused on helping adults maintain abstinence from smoking. Participants are adults aged 18 to 75 years who have recently quit smoking and are motivated to stay quit. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either brenipatide or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection. The study involves a 2-week screening period, followed by a 24-week treatment period where participants self-inject the assigned intervention. After treatment, there is an 8-week safety follow-up period to monitor participants health and any effects related to the study drug. Throughout the approximately 34-week study, participants are expected to attend up to 17 study visits. Researchers will measure the percentage of participants who achieve continuous abstinence from cigarette smoking, confirmed by carbon monoxide levels, from week 1 to week 24. Additional assessments include patient-reported outcomes, body weight changes, drug plasma concentration levels, and monitoring for anti-drug antibodies. Safety and adherence are closely monitored during and after the treatment phase.

This research aims to evaluate whether participants who previously took donanemab receive clinical benefits from annual doses of the drug. The study focuses on individuals with Alzheimer Disease, Dementia, and Amyloid Plaque accumulation. Sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company, it is a phase 3 trial designed to assess the treatments effects over a long period. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either donanemab or a placebo through intravenous IV administration. The study follows a parallel design with double masking to compare the outcomes between the two groups. The treatment period lasts up to 2.5 years, during which participants will have six visits, including drug administration and monitoring. Throughout the study, participants will undergo evaluations such as the Clinical Dementia Rating - Sum of Boxes CDR-SB, Cognitive Function Index CFI, brain amyloid plaque imaging with Florbetapir F 18 PET scans, and plasma tests for phosphorylated tau protein. Pharmacokinetics of donanemab will be measured at baseline, week 52, and week 104. The study involves close monitoring of safety and clinical changes over the entire duration.

Researchers are evaluating LY3457263 compared with a placebo in adults with type 2 diabetes who have not reached their hemoglobin A1c HbA1c goal despite being on stable doses of semaglutide or tirzepatide. This Phase 2, double-blind study focuses on measuring changes in HbA1c levels. Participation in the trial lasts about nine months, aiming to provide insights into treatment effects in this specific patient group. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of three doses of LY3457263 or a placebo, all given by subcutaneous injection once weekly. The study uses a parallel-group design where each participant receives only one assigned treatment. The trial compares these treatments over a 24-week period to assess their impact on blood sugar control and body weight. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including blood tests to measure HbA1c and fasting serum glucose, as well as body weight measurements. These evaluations occur at baseline and at 24 weeks. The study team will monitor participants health and treatment effects throughout the trial, which is expected to last about nine months in total.
