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 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 evaluating the effects of Galvokimig compared to a placebo in adults with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis NCFB. The study aims to assess how these treatments impact the time until the first pulmonary exacerbation, a worsening of lung symptoms, in participants with this condition. This is a Phase 2 clinical trial focused on treatment safety and effectiveness. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups three groups receiving different doses of Galvokimig and one group receiving a matching placebo. Galvokimig is given as a solution for injection. The treatment period ranges from 24 to 52 weeks, during which participants receive the assigned dose or placebo. The study design is parallel and quadruple-masked, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives which treatment. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including lung function tests post bronchodilator FEV1, quality of life questionnaires specific to bronchiectasis symptoms, and monitoring for adverse events. Researchers will track the time to first moderate or severe lung exacerbation and the rate of exacerbations over the study period. Safety evaluations continue up to 60 weeks, and participant involvement includes regular visits and evaluations to monitor health, treatment effects, and side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of a new drug called GSK3862995B in adults with bronchiectasis, a chronic lung disease. This Phase 2 study also examines how the body processes the drug and checks for any immune reactions. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two doses of GSK3862995B or a placebo to compare their effects on bronchiectasis. Participants will receive either Dose Level 1 or Dose Level 2 of GSK3862995B, or a matching placebo. The study uses a double-blind, randomized design, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets which treatment. The treatment period lasts up to 48 weeks, during which participants receive repeated doses. The study also includes assessments up to 72 weeks to monitor safety and immune responses. During the trial, participants will undergo evaluations including lung function tests, quality-of-life questionnaires, and monitoring of respiratory symptoms. Researchers will track the number of lung exacerbations, serious adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs, and electrocardiograms to assess safety and effectiveness. Participants will be involved in regular visits and assessments throughout the treatment and follow-up periods, lasting up to about 72 weeks in total.

Researchers are evaluating AZD0292, a bispecific IgG1k monoclonal antibody, for preventing exacerbations in bronchiectasis patients who are chronically colonized with Pseudomonas aeruginosa PsA. This Phase IIb study compares two dosage regimens of AZD0292 administered intravenously with placebo in participants aged 12 years and older. The study mainly focuses on non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis patients with frequent pulmonary exacerbations due to chronic PsA colonization, which negatively affects lung function, quality of life, and survival. Additionally, patients with cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis colonized with PsA are included as an exploratory group. Participants will receive either high-dose or low-dose AZD0292 starting on Day 1 via IV infusion, or placebo administered similarly. Subsequent doses will follow a schedule of assessments. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of AZD0292 over a variable follow-up period ranging from a minimum of 28 weeks up to 52 weeks. The trial also includes monitoring for adverse events and immune responses to the treatment. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations including lung function tests, quality of life questionnaires, and monitoring of exacerbation rates. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug concentration and antibody development. Safety assessments will continue through the treatment period and for up to 24 weeks after the last dose. The primary outcome is the annualized rate of exacerbations over the follow-up time, and secondary measures include severe exacerbation rates, time to first exacerbation, and changes in quality of life scores. Total participation spans from screening through the treatment and follow-up phases.

This research aims to evaluate the long-term safety and explore the efficacy of astegolimab in adults aged 40 to 90 years with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. It focuses on participants who have completed a 52-week placebo-controlled treatment period in previous studies GB43311 or GB44332. The study is a phase 3, open-label extension to gather extended safety information on this drug in COPD patients. Participants from the parent studies who qualify will receive subcutaneous injections of astegolimab every two weeks throughout the study until it ends. This open-label extension allows all participants to receive the active drug without placebo comparison. The study continues treatment beyond the initial 52-week period to monitor long-term effects. During the study, participants will be monitored for adverse events up to 12 weeks after their last dose of astegolimab. Researchers will collect safety data to understand the incidence of any side effects. The study involves regular assessments and follow-ups to ensure participant well-being, with the total duration lasting until July 2034.

This multinational Phase 4 study evaluates the effect of dupilumab compared with placebo on airway inflammation, resistance, and remodeling in people aged 40 to 85 years with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD. The study focuses on changes in mucus plugging and how these relate to lung function, exacerbations, and quality of life. Participants receive either dupilumab or placebo via subcutaneous injection according to the study protocol. Treatment lasts up to 24 weeks, and the total study duration can be up to 40 weeks. There are two treatment groups in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design. During the study, participants attend nine visits for assessments including lung imaging to measure mucus volume and airway wall thickness, lung function tests using forced oscillation technique, and monitoring for adverse events. The main outcome is the change in global lung mucus score from baseline to Week 24. Safety is followed through Week 36, with ongoing evaluation of lung inflammation and resistance.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of AZD6793, an oral medication, in adults with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. This Phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involves approximately 970 participants across about 350 global sites. The trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of two different doses of AZD6793 against placebo over a 24-week period. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups receiving either dose 1 of AZD6793, dose 2 of AZD6793, or a matching placebo tablet. The study medication is taken orally and the trial lasts for 24 weeks. The study is designed as a parallel-group format with a 111 allocation ratio among the three arms. During the study, participants will be monitored through various assessments including lung function tests measuring forced expiratory volume FEV1, questionnaires evaluating breathlessness, cough, sputum, and quality of life, and tracking of COPD exacerbation events. Blood samples will be collected to measure plasma concentrations of AZD6793. Safety and efficacy outcomes will be evaluated up to 24 weeks, with the main outcome being the rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tezepelumab in adults aged 40 to 80 years with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. This phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on participants already receiving inhaled maintenance therapy and who have experienced multiple COPD exacerbations in the previous year. The trial aims to understand tezepelumabs impact on reducing COPD flare-ups and improving lung function compared to placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive monthly subcutaneous injections of one of two doses of tezepelumab or a matching placebo. The treatment period lasts between 52 and 76 weeks, followed by a 12-week safety monitoring period without treatment. Throughout the study, participants continue their inhaled COPD therapies, and their health is closely tracked to assess the study drugs effects. During the trial, participants will undergo various assessments including lung function tests, questionnaires measuring respiratory symptoms and quality of life, and blood tests to monitor drug levels and immune responses. Researchers will measure the annual rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations and other health outcomes over the study period. Safety will be monitored throughout treatment and during the follow-up period, with visits scheduled regularly to collect data and support participant care.

Researchers are studying the effects and safety of the medicine PF-07275315 for adults aged 35 to 80 with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. COPD makes breathing difficult and reduces quality of life. This clinical trial aims to evaluate PF-07275315 compared to placebo to assess its potential as a treatment for COPD. Participants will receive either multiple injections of PF-07275315 or placebo shots in a clinic over 24 weeks for the Phase 2 part and 52 weeks for the Phase 3 part. The study uses a randomized and parallel design to compare outcomes between the groups. Phase 2 participants will have 11 clinic visits over about 40 weeks, while Phase 3 participants will have 18 visits over about 68 weeks. During the trial, participants will undergo lung function tests including forced expiratory volume FEV1 measurements, and assessments of COPD exacerbations. Researchers will monitor safety, adverse events, and changes in respiratory symptoms and quality of life.
