Researchers are evaluating how well oral icotrokinra works, its safety, and how well patients tolerate it in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic condition where the colon lining becomes inflamed and develops ulcers. This is a Phase 3 study aimed at finding effective treatments for this condition using a rigorous comparison. Participants will receive either icotrokinra tablets or placebo tablets taken by mouth. The study includes an induction phase and a maintenance phase, with adults participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, while adolescents join an open-label maintenance study. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor clinical remission rates at 12 weeks during induction and at 40 weeks during maintenance. Participants will undergo assessments including endoscopic evaluations and pregnancy tests for females of childbearing potential. Safety and tolerability will be closely observed, with the total study duration covering both induction and maintenance periods.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of a drug called azenosertib (ZN-c3) in women with platinum-resistant, high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. This Phase 2 study focuses on patients whose tumors test positive for Cyclin E1 protein, determined by a specific assay developed by the sponsor. The study aims to understand how well azenosertib works in this group and its safety profile. The study involves administering azenosertib orally to participants. It is divided into two parts: Part 1 included all patients regardless of biomarker status and has completed enrollment; Part 2 requires tumors to be Cyclin E1 positive. Participants receive azenosertib and are monitored throughout the study according to the protocol. Participants will be involved in various assessments including tumor measurements following RECIST version 1.1 criteria up to about 12 months after the last participant enrolls. Researchers will track the objective response rate to evaluate tumor response. Safety and efficacy evaluations, along with monitoring of side effects and overall health, will take place during the study period to gather comprehensive data on the treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a medicine called disitamab vedotin for adults with advanced breast cancer that is hard to treat and has spread in the body. This study focuses on participants whose tumors express HER2 and who have received previous treatments for their advanced breast cancer. The goal is to understand how well this medicine works and its safety in these patients through a Phase 1b/2 open-label study. All participants will receive disitamab vedotin intravenously (IV) once every two weeks at the study clinic. They will continue the treatment until they or their doctor decide to stop, which could be due to cancer progression, side effects, or personal choice. During treatment, study visits occur every two weeks. After stopping treatment, participants will have follow-up visits about every six weeks, and later follow-up phone calls approximately every twelve weeks. Participants will undergo evaluations including assessments of their cancer response by the study doctors, following recognized criteria. The study team will monitor the participants for up to about two years or until their disease progresses or they pass away. This includes safety monitoring and collecting information about the medicine’s effects to determine its safety and effectiveness.

This Phase 2b/3 study aims to understand how well icotrokinra works compared to a placebo in improving symptoms and intestinal healing in this patient group. Participants will receive either icotrokinra or a matching placebo orally every day. The study includes both induction and maintenance phases where researchers assess clinical and endoscopic responses at specific time points, such as Week 12 and Week 40, to determine treatment effects over time. Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments including clinical evaluations, endoscopic exams, and safety monitoring. Researchers will measure outcomes like clinical response, clinical remission, and endoscopic healing at Weeks 12 and 40. The study involves regular monitoring to track the participants' health and treatment adherence over the duration of the trial.

This trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of risankizumab compared to vedolizumab in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) who have not previously received targeted therapies. Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease causing inflammation and bleeding in the rectum and colon. The study is a Phase 3b, randomized, open-label trial enrolling about 530 participants across 285 sites worldwide. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either risankizumab or vedolizumab. Those in the risankizumab group will receive the drug intravenously during the initial induction phase, followed by subcutaneous injections for maintenance. Participants in the vedolizumab group will receive the drug intravenously throughout the study. The treatment period lasts 44 weeks for risankizumab and 46 weeks for vedolizumab, following a screening period of up to 35 days. During the study, participants will attend regular outpatient visits for medical assessments, side effect evaluations, and to complete questionnaires. Researchers will monitor disease activity and drug safety, focusing on the percentage of participants achieving endoscopic improvement by week 48. The total study duration is approximately 69 weeks for risankizumab and 71 weeks for vedolizumab recipients.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Afimkibart (RO7790121) as both an induction and maintenance treatment for people with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease in this Phase III, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The goal is to understand how well Afimkibart works compared to placebo in managing symptoms and disease activity over time. Participants will receive either Afimkibart or a matching placebo. Afimkibart is given both as an intravenous infusion and as a subcutaneous injection. This treat-through study means participants continue on the assigned treatment throughout the study period, allowing evaluation of both initial and ongoing therapy effects. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed to measure clinical remission using the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) and to check for endoscopic response at week 52. Researchers will monitor safety and treatment effects throughout, with the entire participation lasting up to one year. Assessments include clinical evaluations and endoscopic examinations to track disease changes and treatment impact.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of induction therapy with Afimkibart (RO7790121) compared to a placebo in people with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This Phase III, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on participants aged 16 to 80 who have an established diagnosis of UC and have shown inadequate response or intolerance to previous UC treatments. Participants will receive either Afimkibart or a matching placebo. Those assigned to the Afimkibart group will get the drug first through an intravenous (IV) infusion, followed by subcutaneous (under the skin) injections. The placebo group will receive matching IV and subcutaneous treatments that do not contain the active drug. During the study, participants will be monitored for clinical remission at 12 weeks, which is the primary outcome measure. Researchers will assess safety and response through scheduled visits and evaluations. The study includes careful tracking of participants' health status and any side effects to understand the treatment's impact over the course of the trial.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of Afimkibart (also known as RO7790121) compared with a placebo in adults with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have not responded adequately or cannot tolerate tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and/or Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. This Phase II, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on participants who have active RA with specific joint swelling and tenderness, and who meet established RA classification criteria. Participants will receive either Afimkibart or placebo administered as a subcutaneous injection. The treatments are given to compare how well Afimkibart works against the placebo in reducing disease activity in RA patients with an inadequate response or intolerance to prior treatments. The study carefully monitors responses over a fixed timeline, including evaluations at baseline and Week 14. During the study, participants will undergo assessments measuring changes in the Disease Activity Score-28 for Rheumatoid Arthritis with C-Reactive Protein (DAS28-CRP) from baseline to Week 14. Researchers will monitor safety and efficacy through physical exams, laboratory tests, and other clinical evaluations. The study excludes individuals with certain prior treatments or medical conditions to ensure participant safety and reliable results.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of Armour Thyroid compared to synthetic T4 treatment in adults with primary hypothyroidism who are currently stable on synthetic T4. The study focuses on assessing how well patients respond to dose conversion from synthetic T4 therapy to Armour Thyroid. This trial is conducted as a Phase 2/3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, active-controlled study. Participants receive either Armour Thyroid in oral capsule or tablet form or synthetic T4 capsules. They must have been on a stable dose of synthetic T4 for at least 12 months before screening, with a dose of at least 25 mcg daily. The study compares both treatments over time to evaluate efficacy and safety in maintaining thyroid function. During the study, researchers monitor thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels to measure treatment response at week 55. They also track any adverse events related to the treatments for up to approximately 90 weeks. Participants undergo regular assessments to ensure safety and effectiveness throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of the medicine PF-07248144 combined with fulvestrant for treating hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This type of breast cancer involves cancer cells that grow in response to hormones like estrogen and progesterone but have little or no HER2 protein. The study focuses on people whose breast cancer worsened after treatment with cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor therapy. The trial is a phase 3, open-label, randomized study comparing PF-07248144 plus fulvestrant to other therapies chosen by doctors. Participants will receive either PF-07248144 tablets daily at home in 28-day cycles combined with fulvestrant injections at the clinic, or the usual treatment of everolimus tablets with endocrine therapy (either exemestane or fulvestrant). The study doctor will help decide the hormone therapy before starting treatment. The trial compares the experiences of those taking PF-07248144 plus fulvestrant with those receiving standard treatments to assess safety and effectiveness. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for disease progression or death, using blinded independent central review based on standard tumor response criteria. The main outcome measure is progression-free survival for up to about 2 years from randomization. Regular assessments, including clinical visits for injections and evaluations, will help track treatment effects and safety throughout the study.
