Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes an extension period and aims to measure changes in the number of monthly migraine days. Participants have chronic migraine and meet specific criteria related to headache frequency and migraine history. Participants receive Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck at pericranial and cervical points. The study includes two Xeomin dose groups and a placebo group during the controlled period, with all groups receiving Xeomin in the extension phase. Four treatments are given approximately 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. Participants take part in 14 visits over the study period, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted in person and the remaining eight visits by phone or video call. Researchers collect headache and migraine data from diaries and assess changes in monthly migraine days as the primary outcome. Safety is monitored by tracking treatment-related adverse events throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the use of Xeomin injections to prevent episodic migraine. This Phase 3 clinical trial compares Xeomin to placebo injections in the muscles of the head and neck to measure changes in the number of monthly migraine days. Participants have episodic migraine with or without aura, and the study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of different Xeomin doses over time. Participants receive a series of four Xeomin or placebo injections spaced about 12 weeks apart. The study includes two experimental groups receiving different Xeomin doses and a placebo group, followed by an extension period where some participants receive Xeomin. Injections are given at specific points around the head and neck. The trial lasts approximately 52 to 55 weeks, starting with a 4 to 5 week screening period. Participants attend about 14 visits, including the first and last visits and four treatment visits conducted on-site, with other visits done remotely by phone or video call. Researchers monitor changes in monthly migraine days, headache days, and medication use, as well as any treatment-related side effects throughout the study.

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 efficacy and safety of elecoglipron, an oral tablet taken once daily, for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight. This Phase III global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes two independent pivotal studies one in adults without type 2 diabetes T2DM and the other in adults with T2DM, all having at least one weight-related health condition. The goal is to understand how elecoglipron compares to placebo when combined with diet and exercise. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of elecoglipron or a matching placebo daily. Study 1 involves about 3000 adults living with obesity or overweight without T2DM, while Study 2 involves about 1500 adults with obesity or overweight and T2DM. Both studies last 72 weeks, during which changes in body weight and other health measures will be monitored. During the trial, participants will undergo regular health assessments including measurements of body weight, waist circumference, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and other related health indicators. Researchers will track percent change in body weight from baseline at 72 weeks as the primary outcome. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study to assess safety and effectiveness of the treatment in managing weight and associated health conditions.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and preliminary effects of a single intradiscal injection of BRTX-100 in adults with chronic lumbar disc disease, a condition causing back and leg pain due to degeneration of spinal discs confirmed by imaging and clinical evaluation. This is a phase 2, double-blind, randomized study with controlled and blinded assessments to compare BRTX-100 against a sham procedure treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either BRTX-100, which contains specially cultured stem cells from their own bone marrow combined with platelet lysate, or a control group receiving a sham procedure with saline. Those in the treatment group will undergo bone marrow collection to prepare the BRTX-100 injection, while the control group will have bone marrow and blood collected but will not receive the active injection. The study includes a Safety Run-In phase with close monitoring of the first four treated participants before continuing the randomized phase. Follow-up visits will occur at weeks 2, 12, 26, 52, and 104 or early termination. During the study, participants will be monitored through physical exams, lab tests, and safety assessments to track any adverse effects and evaluate treatment impact. Primary safety measures will be assessed from baseline through week 104, and efficacy will be evaluated through week 52. The study aims to gather detailed information on safety and initial effectiveness while participants continue regular evaluations over two years, with careful oversight by medical monitors and a data safety board.

Researchers are evaluating the experimental drugs pozelimab and cemdisiran for treating Geographic Atrophy GA, a late stage of Age-related Macular Degeneration AMD that affects central vision. The study aims to compare the progression rate of GA in patients receiving cemdisiran alone, the combination of pozelimab and cemdisiran, or a placebo. Additional goals include monitoring side effects, drug levels in the blood over time, and the bodys antibody response to these drugs. Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of either pozelimab combined with cemdisiran, cemdisiran alone, or a placebo. The study is randomized and double-masked with three groups receiving different treatments. Treatment and monitoring will continue through specified time points up to 104 weeks, with follow-up on safety and antibody responses extending even further. During the study, participants will attend regular clinic visits for eye exams, imaging using Fundus Autofluorescence to measure GA lesion growth, vision tests including visual acuity and contrast sensitivity, and blood tests to assess drug levels and antibody formation. Researchers will track treatment-emergent adverse events and evaluate changes in vision and GA progression over time. Participation lasts until the study completion date in April 2033, with primary outcomes assessed at 52 weeks and further evaluations up to 296 weeks.

Researchers are evaluating KT-621, an oral drug, for its safety and effectiveness in treating adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe eosinophilic asthma. This Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to understand how KT-621 affects lung function and asthma control compared to a placebo. The study is sponsored by Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. and seeks to provide detailed information on KT-621s behavior in the body and its tolerability. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups receiving different doses of KT-621 or a matching placebo. The treatment period lasts 12 weeks, during which participants take the study drug orally. The trial includes regular assessments to monitor lung function, asthma symptoms, and quality of life, with additional follow-up extending to 16 weeks to evaluate safety and drug levels in the blood. Throughout the study, participants will attend scheduled visits for lung function tests, questionnaires about asthma control and quality of life, and blood sampling to measure drug concentration and monitor safety. Researchers will track changes in lung function from the start through Week 12 and observe any adverse events up to Week 16. Participants are expected to comply with all study visits, treatments, and procedures, including keeping an electronic diary to record relevant health information.

Researchers are studying the safety and effects of two drugs, PF-08653945 and PF-08653944, given alone or together for weight loss in adults with overweight or obesity. This Phase 2b trial compares these drugs to a placebo to better understand their impact on body weight over time. The study is designed to evaluate different doses and combinations of these drugs to find the most effective approach. Participants receive subcutaneous injections of either PF-08653945 alone, PF-08653945 combined with PF-08653944, PF-08653944 alone, or a placebo. The study uses a randomized, double-blind design with multiple cohorts receiving different drug combinations or placebo. Treatments are administered as injections under the skin over a planned period of 48 weeks, with follow-up extending to 70 weeks to monitor safety and outcomes. During the study, participants will have their body weight measured at baseline and regularly through Week 48 and Week 60 to track changes. Researchers will assess the percentage of weight loss and monitor any treatment-emergent or serious adverse events up to Week 70. Participants will attend scheduled visits for injections and evaluations throughout the trial, which lasts for over a year in total.

Researchers are evaluating the study drug JNJ-42847922, also called seltorexant, in adults and older adults with major depressive disorder MDD, a mood disorder causing lasting sadness and loss of interest. The study aims to compare seltorexant with a placebo in improving depressive symptoms during a double-blind treatment phase and to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of seltorexant in an open-label phase. Participants will receive either seltorexant or a matching placebo tablet once daily for 42 days during the double-blind phase. Those who qualify for the open-label phase will then take seltorexant daily for up to six months. The treatments are oral tablets, and the study includes two main periods the initial 42-day double-blind phase and the subsequent long-term open-label phase. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including physical exams, vital signs, ECGs, and questionnaires on depression, sleep disturbance, suicidality, withdrawal symptoms, sexual functioning, body measurements, and laboratory tests. Researchers will measure changes in depression scores and monitor adverse events and safety indicators throughout both phases. The total participation can last up to about seven months including both treatment periods.

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.
