Researchers are investigating new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a condition where current therapies like methotrexate (MTX) may not fully control symptoms for many people. This Phase 2b study evaluates a medicine called tulisokibart to see if it can better reduce RA symptoms in individuals already taking MTX. The trial aims to determine if one or more doses of tulisokibart work better than a placebo, which looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. The study includes a 12-week period where participants receive either tulisokibart or a placebo by subcutaneous injection while continuing their MTX treatment, which can be given by injection or orally. Following this, there is a long-term extension lasting 116 weeks, composed of a 44-week main extension and a 72-week optional extension, to further assess the medication's effects and safety over time. Participants will undergo assessments to measure treatment response, including the American College of Rheumatology 20% response criteria at week 12 to gauge symptom improvement. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor for safety and effectiveness, with evaluations extending through the long-term extension periods, totaling over two years of participation.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and potential benefits of VHB937 in people aged 50 to 85 years with early Alzheimer's disease, including those diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment due to Alzheimer's or mild Alzheimer's disease. This Phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to assess how VHB937 affects memory, thinking abilities, daily activities, and brain changes, while also studying how the body processes and responds to the treatment. The study includes an initial 72-week double-blind phase followed by an extension period. Participants will receive either VHB937 solution for infusion or a placebo solution through infusion during the 72-week double-blind phase. The study compares these two groups to evaluate the effects and safety of VHB937 in early Alzheimer's disease. After the double-blind phase, participants may continue in an extension period for further observation. Treatment involves regular infusions under controlled conditions throughout the study. During the study, participants and their study partners will attend visits for assessments including memory and cognitive tests, evaluations of daily functioning, brain imaging, and biomarker analysis from cerebrospinal fluid or PET scans. Researchers will monitor safety, record any side effects, and track changes using the Clinical Dementia Rating scale (CDR) over 72 weeks. The study requires a reliable partner to accompany participants to visits, and overall participation includes monitoring during treatment and the extension phase to thoroughly assess VHB937's effects and safety.

This research focuses on participants with narcolepsy type 1, narcolepsy type 2, and idiopathic hypersomnia. It is a long-term extension study following a previous trial, aiming to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of the drug ORX750 in these conditions. The study is part of a Phase 2 clinical trial program specifically involving participants who completed the initial parent study. Participants will receive oral ORX750 during the long-term extension period. This open-label study continues treatment with ORX750, allowing researchers to observe its effects over an extended time without a placebo comparison. The study builds upon prior treatment to assess ongoing outcomes and safety. During the study, participants will be closely monitored for any treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, abnormal lab tests, changes in vital signs, abnormal ECG results, and any signs of suicidal thoughts or behavior up to day 70. The study requires participants to adhere to protocol requirements and will assess their continued safety and response to ORX750 throughout the treatment period.

Researchers are investigating the long-term safety of buntanetap in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) over a 36-month period. This open-label study includes two groups: one with participants previously involved in buntanetap trials and another with those receiving deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment. The study focuses on evaluating safety outcomes, including adverse and serious adverse events during treatment. Qualified participants will receive a daily oral dose of 30 mg buntanetap after a screening period lasting up to 42 days. Cohort 1 includes invited participants from prior buntanetap studies, who will stop their standard PD medications 12 hours before baseline and annual visits to ensure an OFF medication state. Cohort 2 includes participants treated with DBS for at least 12 months; they will stop PD medications 12 hours prior to all clinic visits and adjust their DBS settings to baseline the night before these visits. Throughout the study, participants will be assessed by trained clinicians using cognitive and motor evaluations such as MMSE, MoCA, C-SSRS, and MDS-UPDRS. Each participant is assessed by the same clinician during the study. Researchers will monitor treatment safety, adverse events, and emergent side effects for 36 months. Participants must have a support person for study visits, and certain medication and health stability requirements apply. The total participation can last up to three years, including regular clinical visits and assessments.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of INCB123667 in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer that shows overexpression of Cyclin E1. This phase 2 study focuses on participants with high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who have developed resistance to platinum-based therapies. The trial aims to assess how well the drug works and its safety profile in this specific patient group. Participants will receive INCB123667 orally twice a day. The study includes women who have undergone between one and four prior systemic therapies after their initial diagnosis and have platinum-resistant disease. A pretreatment biopsy is required, preferably a fresh sample but an archival tissue sample not older than five years is also acceptable. The study monitors the participants over time to evaluate their response to the treatment. During the study, researchers will closely observe participants through assessments that include biopsies and monitoring for safety and response to treatment over a period of up to two years. The main outcome measure is the objective response evaluated by an independent review committee. Safety and efficacy data will guide the understanding of INCB123667's potential for treating this challenging form of ovarian cancer.

This trial evaluates whether using the PINPOINT imaging system during surgery can reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks and other complications after rectosigmoid resection in women with ovarian cancer. The study focuses on women diagnosed with primary or recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are scheduled for debulking or cytoreductive surgery involving a suspected need for low anterior rectosigmoid resection. This Phase III randomized controlled trial compares near-infrared angiography with standard intraoperative assessment methods. During the surgery, participants will receive an intravenous injection of Indocyanine Green (ICG) dye to help visualize blood flow. The PINPOINT endoscopic fluorescence imaging system will be used first to assess blood flow in the colonic stump after resection and then again using a proctoscope to visualize the rectosigmoid anastomosis. The control group will have standard assessment of the anastomosis without near-infrared angiography. This allows surgeons to identify and correct any blood flow issues in real-time during the procedure. Participants will be involved in the study before and during surgery, with assessments focused on the occurrence of anastomotic leaks within 30 days after the procedure. Researchers will monitor complications and evaluate outcomes related to the safety and effectiveness of the imaging system. The main outcome measure is the reduction of risk for 30-day postoperative anastomotic leaks compared with standard intraoperative assessment alone, with follow-up assessments occurring up to 45 days after surgery.

Narcolepsy Type 1 (NT1), Narcolepsy Type 2 (NT2), and Idiopathic Hypersomnia (IH) are rare sleep disorders causing excessive daytime sleepiness, making it difficult for people to stay alert during daily activities like school, work, or driving. NT1 often includes sudden muscle weakness called cataplexy triggered by strong emotions, while NT2 does not have cataplexy. People with IH feel tired even after long sleep and may have trouble waking up. This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effects of ORX750, a drug designed to mimic orexin, a brain protein that helps keep people awake, in individuals with NT1, NT2, and IH. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ORX750 capsules or matching placebo capsules in this Phase 2a trial. The study will compare the drug against placebo to learn about its safety, how the body processes it, and its potential to reduce sleepiness and improve symptoms in these conditions. Participants must stop all other narcolepsy or hypersomnia medications and follow study requirements throughout the trial. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for treatment-related side effects, changes in laboratory tests, vital signs, heart electrical activity (ECG), and any suicidal thoughts or behaviors up to day 35. The main outcomes focus on safety and tolerability of ORX750. The study includes adults aged 18 to 65 years with specific diagnoses of NT1, NT2, or IH and tracks their response and health closely during the trial period.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of adding Tersolisib (LY4064809/STX-478) to other anti-cancer drugs as the first treatment for adults with advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer. This phase 3 study focuses on participants whose cancer has a specific genetic change called a PIK3CA mutation and who have not received prior treatment for advanced breast cancer. The study aims to understand how well this treatment combination works and its safety over time. Participants will receive Tersolisib or a placebo, combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (Ribociclib, Palbociclib, or Abemaciclib) and endocrine therapy (Anastrozole, Letrozole, Exemestane, or Fulvestrant). All drugs are given orally except for Fulvestrant, which is given by injection into the muscle. The study includes two parts: Part 1 allows participants who have had up to two prior treatments for advanced breast cancer, including chemotherapy; Part 2 includes those with no prior treatment for advanced disease and classifies them as endocrine sensitive or resistant based on their cancer history. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed for cancer response, progression-free survival, and side effects. Researchers will monitor measurable disease or bone involvement and track overall response rates, including complete or partial tumor shrinkage. The study will continue as long as the treatment is helping without causing unbearable side effects. Follow-up may last up to five years to observe long-term outcomes and safety.

Researchers are evaluating sacituzumab tirumotecan as a second-line treatment for female participants with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have previously received platinum chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. This study has two phases: a safety run-in to assess the safety and efficacy of sacituzumab tirumotecan, followed by a Phase 3 portion comparing sacituzumab tirumotecan to treatment chosen by physicians. The study aims to determine if sacituzumab tirumotecan improves overall survival, especially in participants with high TROP2 expression. Participants will receive intravenous infusions of sacituzumab tirumotecan during the safety run-in phase. In the Phase 3 portion, participants are randomized to receive either sacituzumab tirumotecan or one of several physician-chosen treatments including pemetrexed, tisotumab vedotin, topotecan, vinorelbine, gemcitabine, or irinotecan, all given by IV infusion. This setup allows comparison of sacituzumab tirumotecan monotherapy against standard second-line therapies. Throughout the study, participants will undergo evaluations for tumor response, adverse events, and overall survival, with monitoring lasting up to approximately 51 months for the safety run-in and about 43 months for the Phase 3 portion. Researchers will use imaging and tumor tissue analysis to assess measurable disease and TROP2 expression. Safety and treatment tolerability will be closely observed, including tracking discontinuations due to adverse events.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of the drug BMS-986365 compared to the investigator's choice of therapy in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. This Phase 3 study aims to measure the length of time participants live without radiographic disease progression, using established criteria for bone and soft tissue cancer progression. The study focuses on patients who have already been treated with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors and have metastatic prostate cancer confirmed by imaging. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two dose levels of BMS-986365 or the investigator's choice of treatment, which may include Docetaxel plus Prednisone/Prednisolone, Abiraterone plus Prednisone/Prednisolone, or Enzalutamide. The study has two parts: initially, participants are assigned to one of three groups including two BMS-986365 doses or comparator therapy, followed by a second part where they are randomized to either the selected BMS-986365 dose or the comparator treatment. During the study, participants will be monitored for disease progression through scans and evaluations using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors and Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group criteria, with follow-up lasting up to four years. Safety and treatment effects will be assessed regularly, and participants' symptoms and quality of life will be closely observed. This long-term follow-up helps researchers understand the treatment's impact on cancer progression and patient well-being.
