Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of rilvegostomig compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy as the first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer mNSCLC whose tumors express high levels of PD-L1. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter global study focuses on patients with mNSCLC without certain genetic mutations who are suitable for this treatment approach. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either rilvegostomig or pembrolizumab intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study compares these two drugs over repeated treatment cycles as first-line therapy. Both treatments are biological agents given by infusion, and the study is designed to monitor their effects over up to approximately five years. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including physical exams, imaging scans such as CT or MRI to measure tumor lesions, and laboratory tests to evaluate organ function. Researchers will closely monitor overall survival, progression-free survival, treatment response, duration of response, and patient-reported outcomes on physical functioning and quality of life. Safety and immunogenicity of rilvegostomig will also be evaluated. Participants are followed and assessed for up to five years to gather comprehensive data on treatment effects and long-term outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety 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 progressed after definitive platinum-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy cCRT. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, international study aims to provide new insights into treatment options for this patient population. Participants will receive either durvalumab and domvanalimab or durvalumab plus placebo as intravenous infusions every four weeks, beginning on Day 1 and continuing for up to 12 months. The study includes two groups one receiving the combination of durvalumab and domvanalimab, and the other receiving durvalumab with a placebo. Both treatments are given through infusion to assess their effects on disease progression and safety. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including monitoring progression-free survival for up to 8 years after randomization. Other measures include overall survival, response rates, duration of response, and various time-to-event outcomes related to disease progression and symptom deterioration. Researchers will also evaluate drug concentrations and immune responses approximately 12 weeks after the last dose. Participants can expect scheduled visits for infusions and evaluations as part of this long-term study.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and tolerability of DB-1303BNT323 in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that express HER2. This Phase 12a trial focuses on patients with tumors that are advanced, unresectable, recurrent, or metastatic and have limited or no standard treatment options. The study aims to identify the best dose and explore early signs of effectiveness in a variety of HER2-expressing cancers. The trial has two parts an initial dose-escalation phase using an accelerated titration followed by a classic 33 design to find the maximum tolerated dose MTD or recommended Phase 2 dose RP2D, and a dose-expansion phase to further assess safety, tolerability, and potential effects at the established dose. Participants receive DB-1303BNT323 by intravenous infusion once every three weeks Q3W at various dose levels. Some groups are randomized to receive different dose levels or combinations with other drugs like Pertuzumab, Ritonavir, or Itraconazole to study drug interactions and responses. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including monitoring for dose-limiting toxicities, adverse events, and serious adverse events using standard criteria up to about one year after treatment. Researchers will also evaluate tumor responses using RECIST 1.1 criteria and collect pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data. Other evaluations include heart function tests, organ function, and overall health status. The study duration varies per participant, with follow-up visits extending up to one year post-treatment to monitor safety and treatment effects.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of the experimental drug ACR-368 alone or combined with ultra-low dose gemcitabine ULDG sensitization in participants with high-grade endometrial cancer. This Phase 2 open-label study divides participants into groups based on a test called OncoSignature, which predicts tumor sensitivity to ACR-368. Some groups receive ACR-368 alone while others receive it with ULDG, and treatment continues until disease progresses or unacceptable side effects occur. Participants are assigned to four different arms Arm 1 includes OncoSignature Positive tumors treated with ACR-368 alone Arm 2 includes OncoSignature Negative tumors treated with ACR-368 plus ULDG sensitization Arm 3 and Arm 4 include participants without OncoSignature selection, receiving either ACR-368 with ULDG or ACR-368 alone, respectively. Participants in the European Union are only enrolled in the unselected groups Arms 3 and 4. Treatment is administered continuously until progression, toxicity, or withdrawal. During the study, participants undergo tumor assessments every 8 weeks for up to two years or until death to measure anti-tumor activity. Safety is monitored by recording adverse events and pharmacokinetic testing occurs at specific times during the first treatment cycle. Other outcomes include overall survival, duration of response, and progression-free survival. Participants provide tumor tissue samples either from new biopsies or archival tissue depending on their assigned arm. The study runs from screening through treatment and follow-up until study completion in November 2027.

Researchers are assessing the effectiveness and safety of rilvegostomig combined with fluoropyrimidine and trastuzumab deruxtecan compared to trastuzumab, chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab in adults with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction GEJ adenocarcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS 1. The study also evaluates rilvegostomig combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy to understand the contribution of each treatment component. This is a Phase 2, randomized, open-label, global, multicenter trial sponsored by AstraZeneca. Participants are divided into three groups Arm A receives T-DXd, rilvegostomig, and fluoropyrimidine capecitabine or 5-FU Arm B receives pembrolizumab, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy either 5-FU plus cisplatin or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin Arm C receives rilvegostomig, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy 5-FU plus cisplatin or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin. Treatments are given by intravenous infusion every three weeks or oral administration twice daily for capecitabine. This setup allows comparison of different combinations to evaluate each drugs role. During the study, participants will be monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival up to about six years. Researchers will also assess response rates, duration of response, adverse events, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and quality-of-life factors like eating difficulties and side-effect burden. The study involves regular assessments including tumor measurements and laboratory tests. Participation may last several years, with safety and efficacy closely followed throughout this time.

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 effectiveness of amivantamab combined with either lazertinib or platinum-based chemotherapy in treating participants who have epidermal growth factor receptor mutated EGFRm non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC. This study focuses on advanced or metastatic NSCLC cases where standard curative treatments are not suitable. It aims to assess the antitumor activity of these treatment combinations in this patient population. Participants receive either amivantamab with oral lazertinib in 28-day cycles or amivantamab with intravenous chemotherapy consisting of carboplatin and pemetrexed in 21-day cycles. Treatment continues until disease progression, participant withdrawal, death, or investigator decision to stop treatment. The study is designed with two separate groups receiving these distinct treatment combinations. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments to monitor treatment effects and safety. Researchers will measure progression-free survival as the primary outcome up to 4 years and 6 months, along with secondary outcomes including dose adjustments, adverse events, overall survival, response rates, and duration of response. Participants are followed regularly during treatment to track these outcomes and manage any side effects until the studys completion.

Researchers are evaluating camizestrant against standard endocrine therapy for patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer who have an intermediate or high risk of disease recurrence. These patients must have completed locoregional therapy and at least 2 to 5 years of standard adjuvant endocrine therapy. The study is a Phase III open-label trial focused on improving outcomes for these patients over a long-term period. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either camizestrant orally or continue with the standard endocrine therapy chosen by their investigator, which may include aromatase inhibitors exemestane, letrozole, anastrozole or tamoxifen. Treatment in each group lasts for 60 months. The study allows prior use of CDK46 inhibitors and includes a follow-up period extending up to 10 years from the last patient randomization. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments to monitor invasive breast cancer-free survival and other outcomes such as invasive disease-free survival, distant relapse-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Researchers will also evaluate symptoms like joint pain, hot flushes, and vaginal dryness using specific scales, along with quality of life measures and pharmacokinetics. Safety monitoring continues up to 28 days after the last dose, and participants remain under observation for up to 10 years total.

Researchers are evaluating a new medication called CX11 for adults with type 2 diabetes who have not achieved adequate blood sugar control despite taking a stable dose of metformin, with or without an SGLT2 inhibitor, for at least 90 days. This phase 2 study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, aiming to determine the safety and effectiveness of different doses of CX11 in comparison to placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of six groups, each receiving a different dose of CX11 40 mg, 80 mg, 120 mg, 160 mg, or 200 mg or a matching placebo. The medication is taken orally once daily for 24 weeks, followed by a 2-week safety follow-up period. The study is conducted across multiple medical centers and neither participants nor staff will know the group assignments during the trial. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including blood tests to measure changes in HbA1c a marker of blood sugar control, fasting plasma glucose, body weight, and blood pressure. Continuous glucose monitoring will track time spent in the target glucose range. Safety is monitored by recording adverse events and measuring plasma drug levels at specified intervals. The total participation period is approximately 26 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating NX-5948 bexobrutideg in adults with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma SLL who have previously been treated with both a Brutons Tyrosine Kinase BTK inhibitor and a B-cell lymphoma-2 BCL-2 inhibitor. This study aims to understand how well NX-5948 works as a treatment by destroying the BTK protein, which differs from BTK inhibitors that only block part of its activity. The study also assesses the safety of NX-5948 and its presence in the bloodstream over time. Participants will receive NX-5948 orally once daily in continuous 28-day cycles until their cancer worsens or other reasons require stopping treatment. During treatment, patients will have regular check-ups to monitor their cancer and overall health. If a patients cancer has not progressed and they stop taking NX-5948, they will continue to have cancer evaluations until progression occurs. Participation could last up to five years or longer if the disease remains stable. Throughout the study, researchers will measure the objective response rate without partial response with lymphocytosis, along with other outcomes like duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, quality of life, and safety through adverse event monitoring and laboratory tests. Assessments include regular health check-ups, quality of life questionnaires, and blood tests. The study is open-label and involves ongoing evaluation of the drugs effects and participant well-being for up to five years.
