Researchers are evaluating the long-term safety and tolerability of intermittent use of elismetrep in adults who experience acute migraine attacks. This Phase 3 study aims to monitor adverse events and overall safety during an average of one year of treatment. The study is conducted by Kallyope Inc. and compares two doses of elismetrep with a placebo using a randomized, triple-blind design. Participants will receive oral doses of elismetrep at either 10 mg or 20 mg, or a matching placebo. The study focuses on intermittent use during acute migraine episodes. Participants must have completed a prior acute treatment trial of elismetrep and meet compliance criteria. Treatment and assessments continue through the study duration, averaging one year. During the trial, participants will be monitored for any treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, and events leading to discontinuation. They will use a personal smartphone to complete eDiary check-ins and questionnaires, including assessments at 2 and 4 hours post-dose during migraine attacks. Safety and tolerability data will be collected throughout, with study participation lasting approximately one year.

Researchers are evaluating the consistency of immune responses to three different batches of an investigational chickenpox vaccine called VNS vaccine in healthy children aged 12 to 15 months who have not had chickenpox or received a chickenpox vaccine before. The study also compares the safety and immune response of the VNS vaccine to an approved chickenpox vaccine known as Varivax. This Phase 3a study is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and aims to better understand the immune protection provided by these vaccines. Participants are randomly assigned to receive one dose of either one of the three investigational VNS vaccine lots or one of two lots of the marketed Varivax vaccine. Along with the chickenpox vaccine, they also receive one dose each of measles, mumps, and rubella MMR vaccine, hepatitis A vaccine HAV, and a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV which could be PCV 13, Vaxneuvance, or PCV 20 depending on availability and country recommendations. All vaccines are given on Day 1 of the study. During the study, researchers monitor the participants immune responses by measuring antibodies against varicella zoster virus VZV and other vaccine components at Day 43. They also track safety by recording any side effects or adverse events from Day 1 to Day 181. The study includes diary reports by parents and regular clinical evaluations to assess immune response and safety outcomes. Participation involves a single vaccination visit and follow-up assessments over approximately six months.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of solriamfetol in adolescents aged 12 to under 18 years who have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ADHD based on DSM-5 criteria. This Phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to compare two doses of solriamfetol against a placebo over a 6-week period to better understand its impact on ADHD symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups solriamfetol dose A, solriamfetol dose B, or placebo. Each participant will take their assigned capsules once daily for up to 6 weeks. The study uses a parallel-group design, meaning each participant receives only one treatment throughout the trial. During the study, participants will have assessments to track changes in ADHD symptoms, specifically measured by the ADHD Rating Scale-5 ADHD-RS-5 total score from baseline to week 6. Researchers will monitor participants closely to evaluate the safety of the treatments. The total duration of participation is approximately 6 weeks, during which participants will attend scheduled visits as part of the study protocol.

Researchers are conducting a Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of solriamfetol in children aged 6 to under 12 years diagnosed with ADHD based on the DSM-5 criteria. This study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, aiming to provide reliable data on solriamfetols impact on ADHD symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups solriamfetol dose A, solriamfetol dose B, or placebo. Each participant will take their assigned capsule once daily for six weeks. This parallel-group design allows comparison between different doses of solriamfetol and placebo over the treatment period. During the study, children will be monitored regularly for changes in ADHD symptoms using the ADHD-RS-5 total score from baseline to week 6. Safety assessments and adherence to the daily capsule regimen will be observed. The trial will last six weeks, with data collected to assess how solriamfetol affects ADHD symptoms and to monitor any side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of elismetrep, an oral drug, compared with a placebo for the acute treatment of migraine in adults aged 18 to 75. This phase 3, double-blind, randomized study is conducted at multiple centers to assess the drugs safety, tolerability, and effectiveness in relieving migraine symptoms quickly. Participants receive either 10 mg or 20 mg of elismetrep or a placebo orally as part of the trial. The study uses a parallel design where participants are randomly assigned to one of these groups and neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment is given until the study ends. During the trial, participants will be monitored for migraine pain relief and freedom from bothersome symptoms two hours after dosing, among other outcomes. Researchers will also assess pain relief at various time points, use of rescue medication, and safety by tracking any adverse events. Participants will complete questionnaires and use an eDiary app to record their experiences. The study is expected to last until February 2027.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and tolerability of a new multivalent pneumococcal vaccine called PG4 compared to the currently used 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine 20vPnC in healthy infants about 2 months old. The study aims to see if the new vaccine is as safe as the existing one and whether it can provide additional protection against infections caused by the Streptococcus pneumoniae germ, including pneumonia, meningitis, and ear infections. This is a phase 3, randomized, double-blinded trial conducted by Pfizer focused on prevention of pneumococcal disease. About 2400 infants will be randomly assigned to receive either the PG4 vaccine or the 20vPnC vaccine. Vaccinations are given by injection into the left thigh muscle at 2, 4, 6, and between 12 to 15 months of age. The study consists of two groups receiving these vaccines according to this schedule. The treatment period spans these vaccination times, with a total participation duration of about 16 to 19 months. During the study, infants will have six clinic visits and one phone call for monitoring. Parents or legal guardians will report any side effects or adverse events their infant experiences after vaccinations. Researchers will evaluate local and systemic reactions within 7 days of each dose, adverse events from the first dose through one month after the third and fourth doses, and serious adverse events up to six months after the last dose. Safety and tolerability data will be collected throughout the study period.

Researchers are studying influenza in children younger than 12 years to understand how the virus changes when treated with the drug baloxavir marboxil. This study has two parts Part A monitors the presence and development of specific changes in the virus before and after treatment in pediatric patients. Part B focuses on how influenza spreads within households from treated children under 12 to their family members, though no new participants will join Part B as per the latest study update. Participants receive a single oral dose of baloxavir marboxil on the first day, with the dose based on their body weight and age. Household contacts of the treated children are enrolled for observation but do not receive the drug. The study tracks viral changes and resistance at multiple points, including baseline and several days after treatment, and monitors influenza transmission within households. Throughout the study, children will undergo various tests such as local influenza and SARS-CoV-2 testing to confirm infection status. Researchers will measure how often virus mutations associated with resistance occur, changes in viral levels, and any side effects up to 29 days. For household contacts, influenza transmission and symptom development are checked on days 6 and 10. Participation involves scheduled visits and testing to gather this information, with the study expected to continue until mid-2027.

This trial investigates monitoring and treatment options for patients with low risk and standard risk metastatic germ cell tumors, which are cancers that start in the cells that produce sperm or eggs. The study aims to find out if active surveillance after surgical removal of low risk tumors can maintain high survival rates, and whether carboplatin or cisplatin chemotherapy works better for treating standard risk tumors in children, adolescents, and young adults. Patients with low risk tumors undergo observation after surgery and may transfer to a standard risk treatment arm if the tumor recurs. Those with standard risk tumors are randomly assigned to receive one of two chemotherapy regimens one containing carboplatin, bleomycin, and etoposide, or the other containing cisplatin, bleomycin, and etoposide. Treatments are given intravenously in cycles every 21 days for up to 3 or 4 cycles depending on the group. Throughout the study, patients have imaging scans, blood tests, tumor biopsies, and pulmonary function tests to monitor response and side effects. Participants are followed closely during treatment and afterward with regular check-ups including CT, MRI, and chest X-rays, as well as blood sample collections. Follow-up visits occur every 2 months for the first year, then every 3-6 months up to 2 years, every 6 months for years 3 to 5, and annually up to 10 years. Researchers measure overall survival, event-free survival, hearing loss, body composition, tumor markers, and patient-reported outcomes related to hearing and neuropathy. This long-term monitoring helps assess the effects and safety of chemotherapy and surveillance strategies.

Researchers are studying the effects of adding olaparib, a PARP inhibitor, after surgery and chemotherapy in patients with pancreatic cancer that has been surgically removed and who have mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 genes. This phase II trial aims to see if olaparib can improve relapse-free survival compared to placebo. The study also evaluates overall survival and differences in outcomes based on mutation type and prior chemotherapy treatment. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either olaparib or a placebo orally twice daily in 28-day cycles for up to 12 cycles, unless the disease progresses or side effects occur. During the treatment, patients will have CT or MRI scans and blood samples taken regularly. After treatment, participants will be followed up at 30 days, every 4 months for the first year, then every 6 months for up to 10 years. Throughout the study, patients will undergo imaging and blood tests to monitor their health and detect any recurrence of cancer. The main outcome measured is the time from randomization to disease recurrence or death. Researchers will also track overall survival for up to 10 years. Safety will be monitored, and participants will be observed regularly after treatment to assess long-term effects and disease status.

Researchers are studying adults newly diagnosed with breast, colorectal, melanoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or non-small cell lung cancer who are planning to receive systemic cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors ICIs. The study aims to understand how cannabis and cannabinoid use relates to cancer-related symptoms over one year. This observational research includes patients treated in community oncology clinics and is sponsored by Wake Forest University Health Sciences. Participants complete surveys and allow medical record reviews throughout the study. The study tracks cannabis and cannabinoid use as well as perceived benefits, harms, and adverse effects monthly for 12 months following enrollment. An optional sub-study is available at select sites for patients with non-small cell lung cancer receiving specific chemotherapy with ICIs. During the study, participants fill out monthly surveys about their symptoms and cannabis use. Researchers also review medical records to assess cancer-related symptoms and treatment progress. The main measure is cancer-related symptoms assessed monthly for up to one year. Secondary measures include cannabis use patterns and adverse effects. Participation involves ongoing survey completion and record review, with the total study duration lasting 12 months post-enrollment.
