Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of EIK1001 combined with standard treatments in adults with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not previously received vein-based treatment for their advanced disease. This phase 2, open-label, multicenter trial includes participants with confirmed stage 4 squamous or non-squamous NSCLC without mutations suitable for first-line targeted therapy. The study aims to find appropriate dosing and monitor adverse events alongside treatment response. Participants receive EIK1001, a Toll-like receptor 7/8 agonist, together with pembrolizumab, a PD-1 inhibitor, and chemotherapy drugs such as paclitaxel, pemetrexed, or carboplatin. These treatments are combined as part of the standard care for stage 4 NSCLC. The trial assesses safety and efficacy over the treatment period, including a dose-finding phase to determine the best dose of EIK1001. During the study, participants undergo regular assessments including tumor measurements based on RECIST 1.1 criteria, organ function tests, and monitoring of performance status. Researchers track the percentage of participants experiencing safety events throughout up to two years of treatment. Follow-up includes ongoing evaluation of side effects and effectiveness to understand the treatment impact and participant well-being over the course of the trial.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study to see if it can reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-PLUS) in adults with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or those at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The study compares AZD0780 to a placebo and monitors participants from randomization until the primary analysis censoring date, followed by a final study closure visit. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral AZD0780 or an oral placebo once daily. The treatment period lasts until the primary analysis censoring date, after which a study closure visit will occur. The study is event-driven and designed to assess the time to the first major cardiovascular event during treatment. During the study, participants will be closely monitored with various assessments to evaluate cardiovascular outcomes and safety over approximately 54 months. Researchers will track the time to first event of any component of MACE-PLUS and collect data to assess the effect of AZD0780 compared to placebo. The study includes regular visits and evaluations to ensure participant safety and adherence to treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the drug disitamab vedotin, alone or combined with pembrolizumab, to treat urothelial cancer that expresses HER2. This cancer is locally advanced, cannot be removed by surgery, or has spread to other parts of the body. The study aims to see how well the drug works and how safe it is for participants by monitoring side effects and treatment responses. Participants will receive disitamab vedotin through an intravenous (IV) infusion every two weeks. Pembrolizumab, when given, is administered by IV on the first day of each six-week cycle. The study includes several groups, called cohorts, each with different treatment histories and eligibility criteria. Treatment and evaluation may continue for about two years. During the study, participants will have regular tests including scans to measure tumor response, lab tests, heart function checks, and monitoring for adverse events. Researchers will also track drug levels in the blood and any changes in heart function. The study will assess confirmed tumor responses and safety outcomes over approximately two years, with close monitoring to understand how participants respond to the treatments and any side effects experienced.

Researchers are evaluating a drug called sigvotatug vedotin alone and in combination with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, to determine its safety and effects in people with various advanced solid tumors. This Phase 1 study includes participants with specific cancers like non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell cancer, HER2-negative breast cancer, esophageal cancers, ovarian cancer, and others. The trial aims to find out the side effects of sigvotatug vedotin and whether it can treat these solid tumors effectively. The study is divided into four parts. Part A focuses on finding the right dose of sigvotatug vedotin. Part B tests the safety and effectiveness of that dose. Parts C and D look at the safety and effectiveness of sigvotatug vedotin combined with pembrolizumab alone or with chemotherapy drugs carboplatin or cisplatin. Participants receive these drugs intravenously, with pembrolizumab given every 3 or 6 weeks and chemotherapy every 3 weeks depending on the drug. During the study, participants undergo tumor biopsies, physical exams, and disease assessments to monitor treatment effects. Researchers track side effects, lab abnormalities, and dose-limiting toxicities for up to 30-37 days after the last dose of sigvotatug vedotin, and for up to 3 years after pembrolizumab treatment. The study follows participants with regular safety monitoring and evaluations of tumor response throughout the trial.

Researchers are conducting a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and safety of iloperidone for treating adults aged 18 to 65 with uncontrolled hypertension. The study focuses on participants whose systolic blood pressure remains 130 mmHg or higher despite at least 8 weeks of treatment with one or more antihypertensive therapies. This trial aims to understand how iloperidone affects blood pressure control in this population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either iloperidone or a placebo. The treatments are administered as drugs, with participants and researchers blinded to the assignments. The study measures changes in systolic blood pressure from baseline to the fourth week of treatment to evaluate the effects of iloperidone compared to placebo. During the study, participants will undergo blood pressure monitoring and safety assessments. The primary outcome is the change in sitting systolic blood pressure after 4 weeks of treatment. The study excludes individuals with severe hypertension, unstable heart disease, or kidney problems to ensure participant safety. The trial duration includes at least 4 weeks of treatment, with ongoing monitoring for efficacy and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of Suzetrigine in adults with pain caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). This phase 3 study focuses on participants who have had diabetes type 1 or type 2 with bilateral lower limb pain for at least one year and aims to compare Suzetrigine's effects against a placebo. Participants will receive either Suzetrigine tablets or a placebo that looks like Suzetrigine, taken orally. The study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, ensuring that neither participants nor researchers know who receives which treatment. The main goal is to measure the change in weekly average daily pain intensity using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) over 12 weeks. During the study, participants will track their daily pain levels to assess treatment effects. Researchers will monitor safety and tolerability throughout the 12-week period, focusing on changes in pain intensity compared to the baseline. Participants must weigh at least 45 kilograms and have a body mass index between 18 and 40 kg/m². The study allows adults aged 18 to 80 years with controlled diabetes and specific pain levels to join.

Researchers are evaluating surgical and minimally invasive treatments for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) by comparing Medicare patients who received the MILD procedure against those who had interspinous process decompression (IPD). The study focuses on outcomes such as the rate of harms related to the initial procedure and the frequency of additional surgical or minimally invasive interventions within 24 months after treatment. Enrollment includes patients treated from January 1, 2017, onward, with continuation until the sponsor decides to stop. The MILD procedure involves percutaneous image-guided lumbar decompression, performed under fluoroscopy through a dorsal approach to partially remove tissue and bone at the affected spinal level. The control group receives the IPD procedure for LSS. Both groups are monitored for a 24-month period post-index procedure using Medicare claims data to track reoperations and any harms. Participants contribute data through Medicare claims without needing prior enrollment or consent, as the study is exempt from IRB oversight. Researchers collect and analyze information on procedure-related harms and subsequent interventions over two years. This approach allows evaluation of long-term safety and effectiveness outcomes for patients treated with either MILD or IPD.

Menstrual migraine is a type of moderate to severe headache occurring around the time of menstruation, often accompanied by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. This trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of ubrogepant, a drug being studied as a short-term preventive treatment for menstrual migraine. Adult women who experience migraine attacks in at least two out of three menstrual cycles are invited to participate in this Phase 3 study. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either oral ubrogepant tablets or a placebo once daily for 7 consecutive days, starting 3 days before the expected start of their period, across three menstrual cycles during a 16-week double-blind treatment phase. Those who qualify may continue taking ubrogepant daily for 7 days per cycle during a 52-week open-label extension. The study involves about 496 women at around 100 sites across the United States and Puerto Rico. Throughout the study, participants will record daily information in electronic diaries and attend regular clinic visits. Researchers will monitor treatment effects through medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires, and side effect checks. The main outcomes measured include changes in the number of migraine days during perimenstrual periods over 16 weeks and the number of participants experiencing adverse events up to approximately 68 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a drug called PF-07220060 combined with letrozole compared to other approved treatments (palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib with letrozole) in adults with breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative. This cancer has spread locally or to other parts of the body and has not been treated with systemic anti-cancer therapy for advanced or metastatic disease. The study is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized trial involving multiple centers. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either PF-07220060 plus letrozole or the investigator's choice of one of the approved CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib) combined with letrozole. The treatments are given as drugs with letrozole serving as endocrine therapy. The study compares these treatments in terms of how well they control the cancer and their safety profiles. Participants will visit the study clinic regularly for monitoring during treatment. Researchers will assess how long participants live without their disease worsening or dying from any cause, which is the main outcome measured up to about four years. The study team will monitor each participant's health and response to treatment through these visits to gather information about treatment effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating whether the drug zilebesiran can reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as cardiovascular death, nonfatal heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure in adults who have hypertension that is not well controlled and who either have established cardiovascular disease or are at high risk for it. This Phase 3 global study is designed to continue until enough cardiovascular events have occurred to assess the treatment's effect. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either zilebesiran or a placebo, both given as injections under the skin (subcutaneous administration). All participants will continue with their standard care, which includes treatment with at least two antihypertensive medications, one of which must be a diuretic such as a thiazide or loop diuretic. The study is double-blind, so neither participants nor researchers know who is receiving the active drug or placebo. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for cardiovascular events including heart attacks, strokes, heart failure hospitalizations, and cardiovascular deaths over approximately five years. Researchers will collect data on these events to determine the time until the first occurrence of any of these outcomes. Safety assessments and standard clinical evaluations will also be performed throughout the study period to ensure participant well-being.
