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 effects of NEU-411 in men and women aged 40 to 80 years who have early Parkinson's Disease (PD) with increased activity in the LRRK2 pathway, identified through a genetic test. This Phase 2 trial aims to evaluate how well NEU-411 works and its safety in this specific group compared to a placebo. The study involves participants with clinically established or probable PD and focuses on those with LRRK2-driven PD. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either NEU-411, a brain-penetrant oral drug that inhibits LRRK2 activity, or a matching placebo once daily for 52 weeks. After completing this treatment phase, participants will have a safety follow-up visit within two weeks. Those eligible may join an open-label extension to receive NEU-411 for an additional 26 weeks. During the study, researchers will monitor changes in a digital biomarker score using a Parkinson's Disease app from enrollment through 52 weeks, along with recording any treatment-emergent or serious adverse events until the study ends at 54 weeks. Assessments include genetic testing, clinical evaluations of PD status, safety monitoring, and tracking of side effects to understand the drug's effects and tolerability over time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KarXT combined with KarX-EC in adults aged 55 to 90 who have agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease. This phase 3 study aims to better understand how these treatments impact agitation symptoms in this population by comparing them to a placebo group. Participants must have a confirmed Alzheimer's diagnosis and meet specific criteria for agitation severity to join the study. Participants will receive either the Xanomeline/Trospium Chloride Capsule, Xanomeline Enteric Capsule, or a placebo, each given at specified doses on designated days. The study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled to ensure reliable comparison of treatment effects. The treatment period lasts through Week 14, during which dosing schedules are closely followed. Throughout the study, participants will be regularly assessed using the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory-International Psychogeriatric Association (CMAI-IPA) to measure changes in agitation levels from baseline to Week 14. Caregivers will provide reports on participant status and help ensure medication compliance. Safety and symptom changes will be carefully monitored to evaluate the treatments' effects during this period.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of pembrolizumab combined with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy compared to the standard chemotherapy treatments in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer. This Phase III trial focuses on cancers that have spread to nearby tissues, lymph nodes, or other parts of the body. The study aims to compare overall survival and other outcomes such as progression-free survival, response rates, clinical benefits, duration of response, and treatment toxicity between the two treatment approaches. Quality of life and fatigue are also assessed as secondary measures. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. One group receives standard of care chemotherapy, which may include carboplatin or cisplatin combined with gemcitabine, or alternatively docetaxel or paclitaxel, administered intravenously in cycles every 21 days for up to six cycles, unless the disease progresses or side effects become unacceptable. The other group receives sacituzumab govitecan-hziy intravenously on days 1 and 8, along with pembrolizumab intravenously on day 1 of each 21-day cycle, continuing for up to 35 cycles or two years, unless there is disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular blood sample collections and imaging scans using computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging to monitor their condition. Quality of life questionnaires are also completed to assess symptoms and fatigue over time. After treatment ends, patients are followed up 30 days later and then annually for up to five years to evaluate long-term outcomes and safety. The main outcome measured is overall survival from the time of randomization up to five years.

This research aims to understand the safety, effectiveness, and overall treatment experience of participants prescribed BRIUMVI4 (ublituximab-xiiy) in a real-world setting. The study focuses on people living with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS), a form of multiple sclerosis characterized by episodes of new or increasing neurological symptoms. It is designed to gather detailed insights from actual use outside of controlled clinical trials. Participants in this study are those who have been prescribed BRIUMVI4 but have not yet received their first infusion at the start of the study. There is no intervention assigned by the study itself; instead, it observes the outcomes and experiences of patients treated with BRIUMVI4 as part of their routine care over time. Throughout the study, researchers will track the annualized relapse rate (ARR) up to week 96 to measure disease activity. Participants' safety, treatment adherence, and experiences will be evaluated through regular monitoring, including any adverse events. The total duration of participation covers up to 96 weeks, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of long-term treatment effects and patient-reported outcomes.

Researchers are examining the safety and effectiveness of AAV2-GDNF gene therapy delivered directly into the putamen for adults with moderate Parkinson's Disease. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind study compares this gene therapy to a control surgical procedure without dural penetration. Participants have been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease for 4 to 10 years and experience motor fluctuations, with responsiveness to levodopa therapy. The treatment involves a single bilateral, image-guided infusion of AAV2-GDNF into the putamen. The control group undergoes a sham surgery involving partial burr and twist holes without penetrating the dura. This design helps evaluate the impact of the gene therapy compared to the control procedure over the study duration. Participants are involved in the study for at least 18 months, during which safety and efficacy are closely monitored. The main outcome measured is the change from baseline to month 18 using the PD Motor Diary to track motor fluctuations. The study also includes thorough screening to ensure participants meet criteria and ongoing assessments to monitor treatment effects and safety throughout the study period.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and how the body processes the drug LY4006896 when given intravenously compared to a placebo in both healthy adults and adults with Parkinson's disease. This Phase 1 study aims to generate evidence on these aspects to better understand the effects of LY4006896 in these two groups. Participants include healthy individuals and those diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, reflecting a broad study population. Participants with Parkinson's disease undergo a screening period of up to 120 days and receive four doses of the study drug or placebo. Healthy participants have a shorter screening period of up to 35 days and receive a single dose. The treatment and follow-up last up to 61 weeks for Parkinson's disease participants and 48 weeks for healthy participants. Both LY4006896 and placebo are administered intravenously during the study. During the study, participants will have regular assessments including evaluations for any serious or treatment-emergent adverse events up to 48 weeks for healthy participants and 61 weeks for those with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will monitor safety, tolerability, and drug effects through blood sampling and clinical evaluations over a total duration of up to 78 weeks for Parkinson's disease participants and 53 weeks for healthy participants. Cognitive function and treatment stability are also monitored in Parkinson's disease participants.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of KarXT in adults aged 55 to 90 who have mild to severe Alzheimer's Disease (AD) accompanied by moderate to severe psychosis related to AD. This phase 3 study aims to better understand how KarXT compares to a placebo in treating the psychotic symptoms associated with Alzheimer's Disease. Participants must have documented AD diagnosis and a history of psychotic symptoms lasting at least two months prior to starting the study. Participants will receive either KarXT or a placebo, with specified doses given on designated days. The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with parallel groups to assess the treatment's effects. Details about dosing schedules and administration are planned but not specified here. During the study, researchers will measure changes from baseline in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician: Hallucinations and Delusions (NPI-C: H+D) score up to week 14 to evaluate the impact on psychosis symptoms. Participants will undergo brain imaging (MRI or CT) if not already done within the past five years to rule out other conditions, and safety monitoring including laboratory tests will be conducted. The total participation duration covers screening through at least 14 weeks of treatment and assessment.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of two different doses of the study drug AP-472 as an add-on treatment to levodopa in people with Parkinson's disease who experience motor fluctuations. This Phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to compare these doses of AP-472 with a placebo to see how they affect daily OFF time, which is when motor symptoms are not well controlled. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two doses of AP-472 or a placebo, all given as oral tablets. The study lasts about 12 weeks and includes a screening period, a 4-week phase where Parkinson's medications must remain stable, followed by an 8-week treatment period. During the treatment, small adjustments to levodopa doses are allowed if necessary. During the study, participants will keep motor diaries to track OFF time and attend visits for assessments. Researchers will measure changes in average daily OFF time compared to baseline over 12 weeks. Safety and tolerability will also be monitored throughout. Participants need to be able to swallow oral medication and walk independently, and they will be followed closely during the study's duration.
