This research aims to evaluate the effects of litifilimab (BIIB059), a monoclonal antibody, in adults with active subacute or chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), with or without systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Participants have active skin symptoms of CLE that have not improved with antimalarial therapy or had difficulties continuing that treatment. The study focuses on reducing skin disease activity using several scores including CLA-IGA-R and CLASI, while also assessing safety, immune response, and quality of life. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either litifilimab or a placebo injection under the skin every four weeks during a 24-week double-blind period where neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given. After this, all participants will receive litifilimab injections every four weeks for an additional 28 weeks. Those who complete the treatment may join a long-term extension study or enter a follow-up safety period lasting up to 24 weeks. Total participation may last up to 80 weeks. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor skin disease activity using the CLA-IGA-R erythema score and the CLASI-A activity score to see how many participants improve. They will also assess safety, tolerability, immune system effects, and participants' quality of life using questionnaires. These evaluations occur regularly during both treatment periods and follow-up to understand the impact of litifilimab on CLE symptoms and overall health.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Xeomin injections in preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3 clinical trial compares Xeomin to placebo injections given into muscles of the head and neck. Participants have chronic migraine diagnosed for at least 12 months and meet specific headache and migraine day criteria. The study aims to measure changes in monthly migraine days over time with Xeomin treatment. Participants will receive four treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. The treatments involve injections of either Xeomin or placebo solution prepared with sodium chloride. Visits occur approximately every 4 weeks, totaling 14 visits: the first, last, and four treatment visits are on-site, while the other eight visits are remote via phone or video call. During the study, participants will keep headache diaries to track migraine and headache days. Researchers will focus on the change in monthly migraine days from baseline to six months after the first injection. Safety and effectiveness are monitored throughout, with frequent assessments during both on-site and remote visits to ensure accurate tracking of migraine symptoms and any side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing episodic migraine. This phase 3 clinical trial focuses on adults who experience episodic migraine, aiming to measure changes in the number of migraine days per month. Participants must have a diagnosis of episodic migraine for at least 12 months and meet specific headache frequency criteria. Participants will receive four treatments of either Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck, with treatments spaced about 12 weeks apart. The entire trial lasts approximately 52 to 55 weeks, beginning with a screening period of 4 to 5 weeks. There are about 14 visits in total, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted on-site, while the other visits are held remotely via phone or video. Throughout the study, participants will track their migraine days using a headache diary, and researchers will assess changes in monthly migraine frequency from baseline to six months after the first injection. Regular monitoring includes both in-person and remote assessments. The primary outcome focuses on the change in monthly migraine days between baseline and month six after treatment initiation.

Researchers are studying the dose-response effects of galvokimig compared with a placebo in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a chronic skin condition lasting at least one year. The study focuses on adults aged 18 years and older who have significant disease activity as measured by specific clinical scores and a history of inadequate response to topical treatments or contraindications to them. This phase 2 trial aims to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and how the drug behaves in the body. Participants will receive either galvokimig or a placebo as an injection. The study uses a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design with multiple doses tested in parallel groups. Treatments are given as solutions for injection, and the study monitors participants over a defined period to assess how the drug works and its safety profile. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including clinical scoring of their skin condition such as the Eczema Area and Severity Index at week 16 to measure response. Researchers will also monitor safety through physical exams, laboratory tests, and medical history reviews. The study requires stopping other systemic or topical treatments before starting and tracks participant adherence and outcomes carefully throughout the study duration.

Researchers are investigating the long-term safety and effectiveness of APG777, a treatment for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), in patients who have already completed an initial APG777 study. This phase 2, multicenter, double-blind study focuses on those who may benefit from extended treatment with APG777 to better understand its ongoing effects and safety over time. The study includes three main periods: a screening visit that occurs at the end of the previous study's maintenance period, an extended treatment period where participants receive APG777 subcutaneous injections every 12 or 24 weeks, and a post-treatment follow-up period. Participants will continue using their chosen non-medicated moisturizer from the previous study throughout this extension. During the study, participants' health and response to treatment will be closely monitored, including tracking any treatment-emergent adverse events for up to three years. Researchers will assess the long-term safety and efficacy of APG777 while ensuring participants remain compliant with study protocols. This ongoing observation aims to provide detailed information on how APG777 affects patients over extended use.

Researchers are evaluating the SureSmile clear aligner medical device in a three-armed, multicenter clinical study focused on patients with dental malocclusion. The primary goal is to confirm the safety and assess the accuracy of different tooth movements during treatment. The study also compares three different aligner trimline designs: Scalloped, Straight, and Straight Extended. Participants will be treated using SureSmile Clear Aligners, which are custom-made devices designed to fit different mouth shapes and sizes. The study groups differ only by the trimline design used on the aligners. All other pre-treatment, treatment, and post-treatment procedures and materials are the same across groups. Treatment duration typically ranges from 6 to 18 months, depending on the individual treatment plan. During the study, participants will undergo assessments of tooth movement accuracy at the beginning and end of the treatment period. Researchers will monitor the progress through clinical visits and follow-ups, evaluating how well the aligners achieve the planned tooth positions. Safety and adherence to treatment protocols will also be observed throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KarXT in preventing relapse of psychosis symptoms in people aged 55 to 90 years who have psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease. This Phase 3 study is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and conducted at multiple outpatient centers. The main goal is to compare relapse prevention between KarXT treatment and placebo over 38 weeks, while also assessing time to discontinuation, safety, and tolerability. Participants receive either KarXT in varying doses (ranging from 20 mg/2 mg to 66.7 mg/6.67 mg taken three times daily) or placebo capsules. The study lasts 38 weeks, during which participants remain on assigned treatment in an outpatient setting. The randomized, double-blind design ensures neither participants nor researchers know who receives KarXT or placebo during the study. Throughout the study, participants will visit the clinic regularly for assessments of their psychosis symptoms, safety checks, and overall health. Researchers will track the time to relapse of psychosis symptoms as the primary outcome. They will also monitor safety and tolerability through clinical examinations and other evaluations. The total duration of participation is 38 weeks from randomization to the end of the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of IPN10200, a medication designed to prevent episodic and chronic migraines in adults aged 18 to 80. Migraines cause severe throbbing pain often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light and sound, caused by brain activation releasing pain-related chemicals. IPN10200 works by stopping the release of these chemical messengers, and this phase II study aims to find the right dose that balances safety and efficacy. The study has three periods: first, a screening to check eligibility; second, Step 1 where two different doses of IPN10200 are tested sequentially in two groups, with injections given into muscles of the head, face, and neck and safety monitored over 36 weeks; third, Step 2 where new participants with episodic or chronic migraine are randomly assigned to receive one of two doses or a placebo, also via injections in the same areas, with monitoring continuing until Week 36. Participants will complete a daily electronic migraine diary and questionnaires throughout the study lasting up to 44 weeks. Researchers will monitor safety by tracking adverse events, laboratory changes, vital signs, facial exams, ECG readings, and antibody development. They will also measure changes in monthly migraine days to evaluate treatment effectiveness while ensuring participant safety throughout the study.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ruxolitinib cream in children aged 2 to 11 years with nonsegmental vitiligo, a condition that causes loss of skin color in patches. The study is a Phase 3 trial focusing on this pediatric population to better understand how well the treatment works and how safe it is for young patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ruxolitinib cream or a matching vehicle cream, both applied as a thin layer twice daily to the affected skin areas. The treatment is topical and focuses on areas of skin depigmentation, including the face and other body parts. The study measures progress over 24 weeks to determine the proportion of participants who achieve significant improvement in facial vitiligo. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including skin evaluations and safety monitoring. Researchers will track changes in the affected skin areas using the Facial Vitiligo Area Scoring Index. Participants must stop all other vitiligo treatments before starting and during the study. Safety follow-ups will continue after treatment to ensure participant well-being and gather comprehensive data on treatment effects.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tezepelumab in children aged 5 to under 12 years who have severe uncontrolled asthma. These children must be on medium to high doses of inhaled corticosteroids along with at least one other asthma controller medication, with or without oral corticosteroids. This phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to better understand how tezepelumab affects asthma control in this pediatric population. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either subcutaneous injections of tezepelumab or a matching placebo for 52 weeks during the double-blind treatment period. Before this, there is a 4 to 6 week screening and run-in phase. After the treatment period, a 12-week follow-up phase occurs without treatment. Eligible participants can then join an optional open-label extension, receiving tezepelumab for an additional 104 weeks followed by another 12-week post-treatment follow-up. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments including lung function tests, asthma control questionnaires, and monitoring for asthma exacerbations. Researchers will measure the annualized rate of severe asthma flare-ups from the start of treatment to week 52. Safety and treatment adherence will also be closely monitored during all study phases, with total participation potentially extending over two years for those in the extension period.
