This research aims to evaluate the antiviral effects of S-337395 compared with a placebo in adults who are not hospitalized but have respiratory syncytial virus RSV infection and are at high risk of progressing to severe disease. Participants must start treatment within 72 hours of showing RSV symptoms. The study is a Phase 2b trial and involves adults with specific risk factors such as older age and chronic lung or cardiovascular disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a high dose or low dose of S-337395, or a matching placebo. The treatment is given orally twice daily for up to 5 days. The study is double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is being administered during the trial. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored closely with assessments including nasal swabs to measure RSV RNA levels at several time points up to day 6. Researchers will also track symptoms using questionnaires and record any side effects up to 28 days. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug levels, and safety will be monitored throughout the study, which runs until December 2026.

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 effects of two study medicines, PF-07275315 and PF-07264660, for treating moderate to severe atopic dermatitis AD, a long-lasting itchy red rash caused by a skin reaction. The study includes adults aged 18 years or older who have had AD confirmed for at least six months and have not responded effectively to topical treatments. The study is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial sponsored by Pfizer. The study consists of multiple stages. In Stage 1, participants received PF-07275315, PF-07264660, or a placebo for 12 weeks. Stage 2 involves PF-07275315 or placebo injections over 12 weeks. Stage 3 includes participants who previously received anti-inflammatory proteins, with treatment lasting up to 32 weeks. Stage 4 involves PF-07264660 or placebo injections for 12 weeks. All injections are given as multiple shots in a clinic setting. Participants will be in the study for up to 40 weeks in Stages 1, 2, and 4, and up to 52 weeks in Stage 3. Researchers will monitor skin improvements using measures such as the EASI75 score, which reflects a 75% improvement in eczema severity, along with other skin assessments, vital signs, ECG, and laboratory tests. Safety and treatment effects will be closely observed throughout the study period.

Researchers are studying the effects of ribupatide KAI-9531, given as a weekly subcutaneous injection, in adults living with obesity or overweight who also have type 2 diabetes. The main goal is to see if ribupatide is better than a placebo in reducing body weight and lowering hemoglobin A1c HbA1c, a key marker of blood sugar control. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating safety and efficacy. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of four doses of ribupatide or a matching placebo once weekly. The study compares the effects of these different doses over time, focusing on changes in weight and HbA1c levels at week 76. The intervention involves subcutaneous injections administered once a week, with multiple doses tested to evaluate their impact relative to placebo. During the study, participants will be monitored regularly to measure changes in body weight, HbA1c, waist circumference, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, glucose, insulin, and quality of life related to weight. Safety assessments include tracking adverse events and immune responses to the drug. Blood samples will be collected to measure ribupatide concentrations. The study lasts up to 76 weeks, with ongoing monitoring for treatment effects and safety throughout this period.

This research evaluates the effects of ribupatide KAI-9531 given as a weekly subcutaneous injection compared to a placebo. It focuses on adults living with obesity or overweight who also have weight-related health issues but do not have diabetes. The study aims to understand how ribupatide influences body weight changes over time. Participants are randomly assigned to one of several groups receiving different doses of ribupatide once weekly or a matching placebo injection once weekly. The study is double-blind, so neither participants nor researchers know who receives the drug or placebo. Dosages range from Dose 1 to Dose 4, and the treatment period lasts up to 76 weeks. During the study, participants will have their body weight and various health indicators measured, including waist circumference, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, blood glucose, and quality of life related to weight. Safety is monitored by tracking adverse events and immune responses to the drug. The trial spans over approximately 76 weeks, with assessments at baseline and week 76 to evaluate changes and effects.

This research aims to assess the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of switching from glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists GLP-1RA to maridebart cafraglutide in adults with obesity or overweight. The study focuses on adults with a body mass index of 25 or higher who have lost at least 10% of their body weight using weekly GLP-1RA treatment and have stable weight and gastrointestinal tolerability. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, each receiving a different dosing schedule of maridebart cafraglutide administered by subcutaneous injection during the treatment period. This is a phase 3, open-label trial with a parallel study model designed to evaluate the treatment effects over a period culminating at week 68. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including body weight changes, plasma concentration of maridebart cafraglutide, and monitoring for treatment-emergent adverse events up to 84 weeks. The primary outcome measured is the percent change in body weight from baseline at week 68. Secondary outcomes include weight maintenance and safety evaluations, with participants expected to follow trial procedures for the entire duration.

Researchers are comparing the rates of surgical and minimally invasive interventions, as well as any harms, in Medicare beneficiaries treated with the MILD procedure versus those treated with interspinous process decompression IPD for lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. This observational study uses Medicare claims data to follow patients for 24 months after their initial procedure starting from January 1, 2017. The purpose is to evaluate outcomes between these two types of procedures without requiring prior patient enrollment or consent. The study includes two groups patients who received MILD, which is a percutaneous image-guided lumbar decompression performed under fluoroscopic guidance through a dorsal approach to the spine, and patients who received IPD, a different device-based decompression procedure. Data on reoperations and complications will be collected for both groups over a 24-month follow-up period using Medicare claims. Enrollment continues until the sponsor decides to stop. Participants involvement is passive as the study uses existing Medicare claims data. Researchers will monitor rates of harms related to the initial procedure and subsequent surgical or minimally invasive interventions over two years. No direct patient visits or interventions are conducted, and the study is exempt from institutional review board oversight. The total study duration extends to December 2026, covering cases treated since early 2017.
