This trial studies adults aged 50 to under 80 with mild or moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis and elevated lipoproteina levels. Researchers are assessing the safety, tolerability, and ability of pelacarsen TQJ230 given once monthly by injection to slow the progression of this heart valve condition. The study compares pelacarsen to a placebo in a randomized, double-blind design. Participants receive either pelacarsen 80 mg or a matching placebo as a subcutaneous injection monthly. They continue treatment and monitoring for up to 36 months to observe changes in heart valve narrowing and calcium buildup. The study also tracks lipoproteina levels and clinical heart-related events during this period. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including imaging to measure aortic valve function and calcium score, blood tests for lipoproteina, and monitoring for safety. The main outcomes analyzed after 36 months include changes in valve jet velocity and calcium score, alongside clinical events. Participants remain under medical care while being observed for any effects of the study drug or placebo.

Researchers are evaluating VENT-03 in adults with active cutaneous lupus erythematosus CLE, including those who may also have systemic lupus erythematosus SLE. This Phase 2a clinical trial aims to determine if VENT-03 affects the activity and severity of CLE and to assess its safety and how the body processes the drug. Participants will be compared to a placebo group to better understand VENT-03s effects. Participants will take either VENT-03 tablets or a placebo for the first 4 weeks. After this double-blind phase, all participants switch to taking VENT-03 for an additional 8 weeks in an open-label extension. The study uses a randomized, double-blind design with monthly clinic visits for checkups and tests throughout the treatment periods. During the study, participants will visit the clinic once a month for assessments including physical exams and tests to monitor the drugs effects and safety. Researchers will evaluate changes in interferon gene signature in the skin, CLE disease severity, skin biopsy markers, and record any treatment-emergent adverse events. Blood samples will be collected to study the drugs concentration over time. The total treatment duration is 12 weeks with ongoing safety and efficacy monitoring.

This trial investigates MZE829 capsules in adults with proteinuric chronic kidney disease who also carry the APOL1 high risk genotype, specifically G1G1, G2G2, or G1G2 variants. The study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and impact on albuminuria, a marker of kidney damage, in this population. It is an open-label Phase 2 trial, meaning all participants receive the study drug and results will help determine its effects and safety profile. Participants receive MZE829 capsules orally in a single-group design. The study includes two cohorts one with chronic kidney disease alongside diabetes, and another with chronic kidney disease without diabetes. The treatment and monitoring occur over a 12-week period, during which the study team assesses drug safety and effects on albuminuria levels. During the trial, participants will be monitored for adverse events and tolerability from baseline through week 12. Researchers will also measure changes in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio UACR to evaluate kidney function. Blood samples will be taken to assess plasma drug concentrations. The total participation time is approximately 12 weeks, focusing on safety and biological effects of MZE829.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0519-0130 in people living with chronic kidney disease, some of whom have type 2 diabetes and are overweight or obese. This Phase 2 study also compares NNC0519-0130 to semaglutide, an already prescribed medicine, and a placebo to see how they may improve kidney function. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive once-weekly subcutaneous injections of NNC0519-0130 with a fixed dose escalation until reaching a maintenance dose, semaglutide with a similar dosing schedule, or a placebo matching NNC0519-0130. The treatment period lasts up to 43 weeks with several dosing schemes and groups. During the study, participants will have their kidney function monitored through urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio changes at weeks 12, 24, and 36. Other assessments include estimated glomerular filtration rate, body weight changes, waist circumference, blood pressure, and glycated hemoglobin levels. Safety will be evaluated by tracking adverse events throughout the trial duration. Participants will be regularly assessed to understand the medicines effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating insulin icodec, a once-weekly insulin injection, compared to insulin glargine, a once-daily injection. This study focuses on adults with type 1 diabetes to see how well the weekly insulin controls blood sugar when combined with insulin aspart, which is taken 2 to 4 times daily. The trial aims to assess blood sugar control over about 8.5 months. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either insulin icodec once a week with insulin aspart daily or insulin glargine once a day with insulin aspart daily. Both insulins are given as subcutaneous injections. The study is designed as a parallel comparison to evaluate the effects of these insulin regimens on blood sugar control. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including blood tests to measure HbA1c and glucose levels, monitoring of hypoglycemic episodes, and tracking of insulin doses and body weight. The primary outcome is the change in HbA1c from baseline to week 26. Secondary outcomes include time spent in target glucose ranges and frequency of low blood sugar events. The study will last about 8.5 months with ongoing monitoring to evaluate treatment effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a triple therapy inhaler combining budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol fumarate BGF MDI 32014.49.6 g compared to a dual therapy inhaler with glycopyrronium and formoterol fumarate GFF MDI 14.49.6 g on heart and lung outcomes in adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD who have a higher risk for heart and lung events. This Phase III study is randomized, double-blind, and conducted at multiple centers, focusing on participants with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk. Participants will receive either the triple therapy inhaler or the dual therapy inhaler, both administered twice daily. The study compares these two inhalers over a period of up to three years, monitoring for serious cardiac or COPD events. The trial includes careful evaluation of various heart and lung-related health events during this period. During the study, participants will be closely monitored through regular visits, assessments, and tests to measure lung function, heart events, and COPD exacerbations. Researchers will track the time until the first severe cardiac or COPD event and evaluate other cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes over up to three years. Participants will also be assessed for their ability to properly use the inhaler and adherence to the study protocol throughout the trial.

Researchers are studying the effects of the drug ZT-01 on nighttime low blood sugar hypoglycemia in adults with type 1 diabetes who experience low blood sugars at night. The study aims to find out if ZT-01 can reduce the number of nighttime hypoglycemia episodes and how it affects blood sugar levels. The safety of ZT-01 will also be evaluated during this phase 2a trial sponsored by Zucara Therapeutics Inc. Participants will receive both placebo and ZT-01 at one of three dose levels 7 mg, 15 mg, or 22 mg, injected under the skin daily for 28 days each. The study uses a randomized, double-blind, crossover design, so participants will receive ZT-01 during one period and placebo during another, without knowing which they are receiving. They will wear a continuous glucose monitor CGM provided by the study during treatment periods and continue their usual blood sugar monitoring and insulin use. During the approximately 16-week study, participants will have up to 6 visits and 2 phone calls. They will provide blood and urine samples to assess eligibility and effects of treatment, have blood pressure and temperature checked at visits, and receive ECGs at 4 visits to monitor heart activity. Some participants may join a sub-study requiring overnight stays for blood level tests of ZT-01 and glucagon. Participants will complete daily diaries and upload CGM data to a study phone for ongoing monitoring. The main outcome measured is the number of nighttime hypoglycemia episodes during each 28-day treatment period.

Researchers are investigating whether adding cancer-specific amplitude-modulated radiofrequency electromagnetic field therapy using the TheraBionic P1 device can affect the pathological response in patients with resectable early-stage breast cancer. This study focuses on women with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who are planning upfront surgery. The research is designed to evaluate the treatments impact before surgery in a neoadjuvant setting. Participants will self-administer the TheraBionic P1 device therapy three times a day for 60 minutes each sessionmorning, midday, and eveningover approximately two weeks before their scheduled tumor resection surgery. This device delivers amplitude-modulated electromagnetic fields continuously during these sessions. The study does not include a comparison group or blinding. During the trial, participants will have their tumor tissue evaluated for pathological response at the time of surgery. Researchers will also analyze changes in microRNA, Ki-67, tumor apoptosis marker Cleaved caspase-3, and cell cycle arrest marker p27 from baseline to post-surgical tissue. Long-term follow-up will assess overall survival and progression-free survival for up to five years after surgery. Participants will be monitored for safety and treatment adherence throughout the study period.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of upadacitinib at different doses for adults with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis AD who have not responded well to dupilumab treatment. AD is a skin condition causing rash and itching due to inflammation. The study includes approximately 200 adults aged 18 to less than 64 years, all current dupilumab users with a history of inadequate response. The trial is conducted in two periods to compare upadacitinib 15mg to dupilumab 300mg and adjust doses based on clinical response. In Period 1, participants are randomly assigned to receive either upadacitinib 15mg tablets once daily or dupilumab 300mg subcutaneous injections every two weeks for eight weeks. Participants on upadacitinib 15mg may have their dose increased to 30mg after two weeks depending on response. Period 2 lasts 24 weeks, during which participants continue or adjust doses based on their Eczema Area and Severity Index EASI response at Week 8. Participants may remain on their assigned dose or switch doses accordingly. Participants attend regular visits at hospitals or clinics during the 35-day screening, 8-week Period 1, and 24-week Period 2, plus a 30-day follow-up. Assessments include medical exams, blood tests, monitoring for side effects, and questionnaires. Researchers measure outcomes such as the percentage achieving at least a 90% reduction in eczema severity EASI 90 at Week 8. The study monitors treatment effects and safety carefully throughout the 32-week treatment and follow-up period.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of IMVT-1402 in adults with Graves disease who remain hyperthyroid despite treatment with antithyroid drugs ATD. The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial aiming to compare IMVT-1402 against placebo by measuring thyroid hormone levels and ATD dose changes at Week 26. Participants receive either IMVT-1402 or placebo via subcutaneous injections once weekly. Some groups will receive IMVT-1402 for 52 weeks, others IMVT-1402 for 26 weeks followed by placebo for 26 weeks, and one group will receive placebo for 52 weeks. The study evaluates thyroid hormone levels, seronegative status for thyroid receptor antibodies, and sustained euthyroidism at multiple time points up to Week 104. During the trial, participants undergo regular assessments of thyroid hormones T3, FT3, FT4, TSH, antibody levels, and clinical status. Researchers will monitor participants up to two years to assess the proportion achieving normal thyroid function without ATD and maintaining this status over time. Safety and tolerability of IMVT-1402 are also evaluated throughout the study.
