Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combining durvalumab and domvanalimab compared to durvalumab plus placebo in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has not worsened after definitive platinum-based concurrent chemoradiation therapy. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, international study involves multiple centers. Participants receive intravenous infusions of durvalumab and domvanalimab or durvalumab and placebo. The treatments are given after patients have completed concurrent platinum-based chemotherapy and radiation therapy with a total radiation dose of approximately 60 Gy. The study monitors patients over time to assess treatment effects and safety. During the study, participants undergo evaluations including tumor tissue analysis for PD-L1 status, performance status assessments, and monitoring of organ and marrow function. The main outcome measured is progression-free survival up to 8 years after randomization. Researchers also monitor for any adverse effects and disease progression throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Datopotamab Deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) with or without durvalumab compared to the investigator's choice chemotherapy combined with pembrolizumab in patients who have PD-L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This Phase III, randomized, open-label, international study aims to see if adding durvalumab to Dato-DXd can help patients live longer without their cancer worsening or simply live longer compared to standard chemotherapy with pembrolizumab. The study also examines how the treatments and cancer impact patients' quality of life. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: Dato-DXd plus durvalumab, Dato-DXd alone, or investigator's choice chemotherapy (paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, or gemcitabine plus carboplatin) combined with pembrolizumab. All treatments are given by intravenous infusion. The study design includes stratification based on geographic location, disease-free interval history, and prior PD-1/PD-L1 treatment for early-stage TNBC. During the study, participants will have regular assessments to monitor their disease status using RECIST 1.1 criteria and undergo imaging reviewed by blinded independent central review. Researchers will track progression-free survival, quality of life, safety, and other health measures over an anticipated period of up to 33 months. Participants must provide tumor samples for PD-L1 testing, and safety monitoring will continue throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of camizestrant compared to standard endocrine therapy in patients with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-). These patients have an intermediate or high risk of cancer recurrence and have already completed local treatments such as surgery and possibly chemotherapy, alongside at least 2 years and up to 5 years of standard adjuvant endocrine therapy. The study is a Phase III, open-label trial designed to assess outcomes over a long term. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either camizestrant, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader, or one of several standard endocrine therapies including tamoxifen, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane, administered according to local approved guidelines. The treatment duration for both groups is planned to last 60 months. Eligible patients may have previously used CDK4/6 inhibitors, and the study will specifically include those with intermediate or high risk of recurrence as determined by clinical and biological markers. During the study, participants will be monitored for up to 10 years from the last patient's randomization to evaluate invasive breast cancer-free survival. Additional outcomes include invasive disease-free survival, distant relapse-free survival, overall survival, safety, and clinical outcome assessments. The study involves ongoing assessments of health status, treatment effects, and safety to determine the long-term benefits and risks of camizestrant compared to standard therapies.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of opevesostat combined with hormone replacement therapy compared to alternative treatments with abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have already been treated with one next-generation hormonal agent. This Phase 3 study aims to determine whether opevesostat improves radiographic progression-free survival, assessed by independent central review, in participants with or without androgen receptor ligand binding domain mutations. Participants will receive either oral opevesostat along with hormone replacement therapy drugs such as dexamethasone and fludrocortisone acetate, or they will receive alternative oral treatments including abiraterone acetate with prednisone acetate or enzalutamide. Hydrocortisone can be used as a rescue drug if needed. The study is open-label and randomized, comparing these treatment strategies in participants who have progressed after prior hormonal therapy. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including imaging scans to monitor disease progression. Researchers will measure radiographic progression-free survival up to approximately 52 months. Safety and overall survival are also monitored as secondary outcomes. Participants must attend scheduled visits for evaluations, provide tumor tissue samples, and have ongoing monitoring of organ function, hormone levels, and other relevant health parameters throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of telisotuzumab vedotin compared to docetaxel in adults with previously treated non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that overexpresses c-Met. This phase 3 study focuses on participants with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have specific genetic markers and have progressed after prior therapies. The study aims to assess changes in disease activity and adverse events over time. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either intravenous telisotuzumab vedotin every two weeks or intravenous docetaxel every three weeks. Treatment continues until predefined discontinuation criteria are met. Those who benefit from the study treatment may have the option to continue receiving it through an extension or rollover study. Approximately 698 adults will be enrolled worldwide at about 330 sites. During the study, participants will attend regular hospital or clinic visits for medical assessments, blood tests, side effect monitoring, and questionnaires. Researchers will measure progression-free survival and overall survival for up to approximately 39 months. The study includes careful safety monitoring and evaluates the impact of treatment on disease progression and patient well-being.

Researchers are evaluating whether adding sacituzumab tirumotecan to pembrolizumab after surgery improves treatment outcomes for adults with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not achieved a complete response after initial therapy. This Phase 3 study compares the combination of sacituzumab tirumotecan and pembrolizumab to pembrolizumab alone, focusing on disease-free survival as measured by a blinded independent central review. Participants receive neoadjuvant treatments including pembrolizumab with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (such as cisplatin, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, carboplatin, or paclitaxel) before surgery. After surgery, those without a complete pathological response are randomized to receive either sacituzumab tirumotecan every two weeks for up to 24 weeks plus pembrolizumab every six weeks for up to 42 weeks, or pembrolizumab alone. Rescue medications may be given to prevent infusion reactions and oral side effects. During the study, participants undergo regular radiological assessments and provide tumor tissue samples to evaluate markers like PD-L1 and TROP2. Researchers monitor disease-free survival for up to approximately 93 months. Safety assessments, recovery from previous therapies, and control of infections such as HIV or hepatitis are also part of participant evaluations throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating whether adding immunotherapy drugs brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab to standard chemotherapy, with or without radiation, can improve survival for patients aged 5 to 60 years with newly diagnosed stage I or II classical Hodgkin lymphoma. This phase III trial compares outcomes in groups based on their early response to initial chemotherapy, aiming to understand if immunotherapy can lead to better progression-free survival and overall survival compared to standard treatment alone. The study also looks at side effects, quality of life, and long-term health impacts across different patient groups. Participants first receive two cycles of standard ABVD chemotherapy every 28 days, followed by imaging to classify their response as rapid or slow early responders and their risk status as favorable or unfavorable. Based on these factors, patients are assigned to one of eight treatment arms that include either continued standard chemotherapy regimens or immunotherapy with brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab, sometimes combined with involved-site radiation therapy. Treatments are given intravenously or orally depending on the drugs, and cycles typically last 28 days. Imaging and blood samples are collected regularly throughout the study. Throughout the trial, participants undergo frequent scans such as FDG-PET, CT, MRI, and PET-CT to monitor their disease status. Blood samples and questionnaires assess treatment effects and quality of life. After completing treatment, patients have scheduled follow-up visits every 3 months for the first year, then every 6 months for two years, and annually up to 12 years to track long-term outcomes, side effects, and survival. The main measurements focus on progression-free survival, overall survival, treatment-related adverse events, and patient-reported experiences.

Researchers are evaluating two surgical procedures, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, to see how well they reduce the risk of ovarian cancer in women who have BRCA1 gene mutations. The study aims to determine if removing just the fallopian tubes (bilateral salpingectomy) is almost as effective as removing both the fallopian tubes and ovaries (bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) in lowering ovarian cancer risk. This trial also assesses symptoms related to estrogen loss, quality of life, sexual function, cancer-related distress, decision-making about surgery, and treatment side effects in these patients. Participants choose between two groups: one group undergoes bilateral salpingectomy and may have their ovaries removed later, while the other group undergoes bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Both groups receive pelvic or transvaginal ultrasounds or pelvic MRI scans during screening, and blood samples are collected throughout the trial. Ancillary studies include quality-of-life assessments and questionnaires. The study also collects tissue and blood samples for future research. After surgery, participants have follow-up visits at 10 to 60 days, then at 6, 12, and 24 months, and annually for up to 20 years. Researchers monitor the time until any high-grade serous carcinomas develop, specifically ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancers. They also track menopausal symptoms, sexual function, quality of life, cancer distress, medical decisions about surgery, and any adverse events during this long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, effectiveness, and how the body processes VX-01 as an oral treatment for people with moderate to severe Non-Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR) without clinically significant diabetic macular edema (CI-DME). This Phase 2, multi-center study compares VX-01 to a placebo over 52 weeks, aiming to see if daily doses can improve the condition in adults with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either VX-01 tablets (150 mg twice daily) or matching placebo tablets twice daily for one year. The study groups are balanced based on the presence of proliferative diabetic retinopathy and blood sugar control levels. After the 52-week treatment period, there is a 12-week follow-up phase where all participants continue to be monitored without the study drug. During the study, participants will have regular eye exams, including imaging and visual acuity tests, and blood tests to monitor safety and treatment effects. Researchers will track adherence to medication and evaluate outcomes such as vision changes and diabetic retinopathy progression. Safety and tolerability will also be closely observed throughout the treatment and follow-up periods, with total participation lasting about 64 weeks.

This is a Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The planned duration of treatment in either arm of the study is 7 years. Eligible patients must have intermediate-high or high risk of recurrence as defined by specified clinical and biologic criteria. Concurrent use of abemaciclib is permitted in both arms. The primary endpoint of the study is Invasive breast cancer-free survival (IBCFS) and main secondary endpoints include Invasive disease-free survival (IDFS), Distant relapse-free survival (DRFS), Overall survival (OS), Safety and Clinical Outcome Assessments (COAs). Patients will be followed for 10 years from randomization of the last patient.
