Researchers are evaluating the use of XYOSTED as a testosterone replacement therapy in adolescent males aged 12 to under 18 years with primary or secondary hypogonadism, a condition where the body produces little or no testosterone. This Phase 34 open-label study aims to assess how well XYOSTED supports the continuation or start of puberty, along with its safety and the testosterone levels it maintains. Participants will receive XYOSTED injections at doses tailored to their weight and targeted pubertal stage. Dose adjustments will be made based on testosterone levels measured at specific intervals after dosing, with evaluations approximately every three months to reach the desired hormone levels. After completing the 52-week initial study period, participants may enter a 24-month extension to further monitor long-term safety and treatment effects. Throughout the study and extension, participants will undergo clinical examinations including pubertal staging, blood tests for testosterone and other labs, bone density scans, body composition assessments, and X-rays to monitor bone age. Researchers will track changes in puberty progression, bone health, body measurements, and hormone levels. Participants will attend regular clinic visits every six months during the extension phase to continue safety and pharmacokinetic evaluations.

Researchers are exploring new treatments for women with relapsed high-grade serous ovarian cancer, which is a fast-growing cancer starting in ovarian cells, the lining of the belly, or fallopian tubes. The study evaluates raludotatug deruxtecan R-DXd, a type of antibody drug conjugate, combined with other therapies, to understand safety, tolerability, and cancer response. This includes women with platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer who have had prior treatments. The study has two parts Part 1 involves gradually increasing doses of R-DXd combined with chemotherapy drugs like carboplatin, paclitaxel, bevacizumab, or pembrolizumab to find a recommended dose. Part 2 uses this recommended dose to further assess treatment effects. Participants receive intravenous infusions every three weeks, with chemotherapy cycles lasting up to about four months and pembrolizumab up to two years. The combinations vary depending on cancer sensitivity and treatment history. Participants undergo regular treatment visits where cancer response and side effects are monitored. Tumor tissue samples are collected before treatment. Researchers track adverse events, dose-limiting toxicities, and how long the cancer responds to treatment. The study lasts up to approximately three years, allowing for long-term safety and effectiveness assessments, with ongoing evaluation of participants health throughout the trial.

Researchers are evaluating YL205, a drug given by intravenous infusion, in patients with advanced solid tumors. This multicenter, open-label phase III study in China aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics how the drug moves through the body, and preliminary effectiveness of YL205. Eligible patients have advanced solid tumors that overexpress Napi2B and include cancers such as ovarian, non-squamous non-small cell lung, renal cell, and endometrial cancer. Participants receive YL205 as a lyophilized powder reconstituted for intravenous infusion at a dose of 160 mg per vial. Treatment is given once every three weeks in cycles, with dose levels adjusted during different study phases dose escalation phase Ia, dose expansion phase Ib, and cohort expansion phase II. The study evaluates at least two dose levels and the recommended phase 2 dose RP2D. Throughout approximately 36 months, participants are closely monitored for dose-limiting toxicities, treatment-emergent adverse events, and serious adverse events. Researchers assess tumor response using RECIST v1.1 criteria, including overall response rate, disease control rate, duration and depth of response, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Pharmacokinetic parameters like AUC, Cmax, and half-life are also measured. Patients undergo tumor sampling and radiological evaluations to track treatment effects and safety.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of enicepatide, a dual GLP-1GIP receptor agonist, at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM. This Phase III study aims to better understand how enicepatide affects body weight and other health measures in this population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or one of three dosing regimens of enicepatide, administered once weekly using an integrated drug-device combination product. The study lasts for 72 weeks, during which participants will self-administer the study drug or receive injections from a trained individual if needed. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including body weight, hemoglobin A1c, waist circumference, fasting glucose and insulin, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and quality of life questionnaires. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting and specific rating scales. This comprehensive evaluation will help determine the effects of enicepatide on weight and diabetes management over the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the experimental antibody COM701 to see if it can delay the progression of relapsed platinum sensitive ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. The trial aims to find out if COM701, given as maintenance treatment, can slow disease progression, delay the need for new anti-cancer treatments, and to understand its safety profile in participants who have had prior platinum-containing therapies. This trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study where participants have a 67% chance to receive COM701 and a 33% chance to receive a placebo. The treatment is given through intravenous infusion once every three weeks. The study includes multiple sub-studies, with initial focus on COM701 alone and later evaluation of COM701 combined with other anti-cancer drugs as maintenance therapy. Participants will visit the clinic every three weeks for treatment infusion and undergo various health checks including physical exams, vital signs, ECG, blood and urine tests, and pregnancy tests if applicable. Disease response is monitored through tumor imaging by CT or MRI scans and analysis of tumor tissue samples. The main outcome is progression-free survival over up to two years, with safety monitored during and up to 90 days after treatment. The study duration and follow-up depend on individual participant progress.

This research aims to develop and test a culturally tailored smartphone app called HealthyCells to help African American smokers quit smoking and reduce sedentary behavior. African Americans have higher quit attempts but lower success rates compared to other groups. By integrating two proven smartphone interventions, the study seeks to address barriers and promote cessation and activity using tailored content that considers cultural strengths and challenges. HealthyCells combines a smoking cessation app with features like facial recognition to verify smoking status twice daily using carbon monoxide breath samples, and activity monitoring via a Google smartwatch. The app sends real-time prompts to encourage movement after 30 minutes of sitting and delivers motivational messages twice daily to support quitting and reduce sedentary time. The study includes a pilot phase with 15 African American smokers to refine the app, followed by a main phase where 30 participants will use HealthyCells during a planned quit attempt. Participants will engage in smoking status assessments and activity monitoring remotely, with rewards for abstinence based on biochemical verification at 8 weeks. Sedentary time will be measured by accelerometer for 7 days before quitting and 7 days at 8 weeks post-quit. The research team will evaluate smoking abstinence rates and changes in sedentary behavior to determine the apps feasibility. The total study participation is focused on the 8-week period post-quit date, with frequent assessments and feedback via the app.

Researchers are evaluating a culturally-tailored home-based physical activity program designed for Hispanic or LatinoLatina adolescent and young adult childhood cancer survivors. These survivors may face long-term effects like weight gain, fatigue, and reduced physical fitness after cancer treatment. The study aims to see if this culturally-relevant program can help increase physical activity and improve overall health compared to using a Fitbit tracker alone. The study has two stages. In Stage 1, 20 Latinx survivors participate in developing the intervention using Fitbit trackers, text messages, social media support, wearable activity devices, and interviews over 9 months. In Stage 2, 170 survivors who do not meet physical activity guidelines are randomized to either the intervention group, which includes Fitbit use, weekly goal-setting, peer support via social media and Zoom meetings, and optional activity partners, or a control group that only uses Fitbit trackers for 12 weeks. The intervention includes an intensive phase with weekly sessions followed by a 4-week maintenance phase. Participants will wear Fitbit trackers daily and engage in goal-setting, peer discussions, and physical activity reminders. Researchers will measure moderate to vigorous physical activity, sedentary time, and health-related quality of life over 12 weeks. Additional evaluations include physiological markers of heart and metabolic health and qualitative interviews to improve the program. The study lasts through the intervention phases with ongoing monitoring and support for participants.

This Phase 1 study aims to find the best dose to use in future studies and will assess pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity. Participants will receive AO-252 as oral tablets or capsules daily. The study includes two parts a dose escalation phase to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose, followed by a dose expansion phase where participants are assigned to specific dose levels based on initial findings. During the study, participants will be monitored for safety over 12 months in the dose escalation phase and up to 30 months in dose expansion, with assessments of tumor response and drug behavior in the body. Evaluations include regular safety checks, measurement of tumor activity, and pharmacokinetic profiling. Participants will be followed closely throughout the treatment period to track outcomes and any side effects.

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.
