Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of combining elecoglipron and dapagliflozin compared to each drug alone in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus T2DM who have not achieved adequate control through lifestyle changes or other glucose-lowering medications. This Phase III study aims to better understand how these treatments work together in managing blood sugar levels in this population. Participants are randomly assigned to one of five groups two groups receive elecoglipron at different dose levels combined with dapagliflozin two groups receive elecoglipron at different dose levels combined with a placebo matching dapagliflozin and one group receives dapagliflozin alone with a placebo matching elecoglipron. All medications are taken orally once daily. The treatment period lasts 40 weeks, during which the effects of the drugs on blood sugar and other health measures will be monitored. Throughout the study, participants will have regular assessments of their blood sugar control, body weight, and blood pressure. Researchers will measure changes in Hemoglobin A1c HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and self-monitored blood glucose levels. Other outcomes include weight loss and the need for rescue medication. Safety and tolerability will be closely monitored. Participation in the trial lasts for 40 weeks, during which participants will attend scheduled visits for evaluation and medication monitoring.

Researchers are studying the effects and safety of different doses of a new medicine called NNC0662-0419 in people with type 2 diabetes. This study compares NNC0662-0419 with semaglutide, an approved diabetes medication, and a placebo to find out if NNC0662-0419 is an effective and safe treatment option. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of these treatments. Participants will receive their assigned treatment by weekly injections under the skin. The study includes groups receiving NNC0662-0419 with increasing doses, semaglutide, or placebo matched to the investigational medicines. Treatments will be given once a week during the study period. During the study, participants will have their blood sugar control monitored by measuring glycated hemoglobin HbA1c at various time points up to 40 weeks. Researchers will also track changes in body weight, blood sugar levels, cholesterol, kidney function, and the number of adverse events. The study lasts until about 48 weeks, allowing for safety and effectiveness assessments throughout this time.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of atogepant, a medicine approved for preventing migraine in adults, in young participants aged 12 to 17 years who experience chronic migraine. The study aims to compare atogepant with a placebo, which looks like the medicine but contains no active drug. It focuses on monitoring side effects and changes in migraine frequency in this pediatric population. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either atogepant or placebo tablets once daily for 12 weeks in a double-blind design, meaning neither participants nor doctors know who receives which treatment. After the treatment period, participants will be followed for an additional 4 weeks to observe ongoing effects. The study plans to enroll about 420 adolescents across approximately 70 sites worldwide. During the study, participants will attend regular clinic visits where researchers will assess treatment effects through daily diaries, medical exams, blood tests, side effect monitoring, and questionnaires. The main outcomes include the number of participants experiencing adverse events and changes in the average monthly number of migraine days. Secondary measures cover headache days, medication use, quality of life, and migraine-related disability. Total participation lasts about 16 weeks.

Migraines cause severe throbbing or pulsating headaches, often on one side of the head, and are linked with nausea and sensitivity to light and sound. This study evaluates Corabotase IPN10200, a medication designed to prevent episodic and chronic migraines by blocking the release of chemicals that cause pain. The research aims to assess the safety, optimal dosing, and effectiveness of Corabotase injections into head and neck muscles. The trial has three periods an initial screening to confirm participant eligibility Step 1, where two doses of Corabotase are tested sequentially in separate cohorts against placebo, with injections administered into head, face, and neck muscles, and safety monitored for 36 weeks and Step 2, where new participants with episodic or chronic migraine are randomly assigned to receive either Dose A, Dose B, or placebo, with injections given in the same muscle areas and both safety and effectiveness tracked until Week 36. Participants complete a daily electronic migraine diary and questionnaires throughout the study, which lasts up to 44 weeks. Researchers monitor adverse events, lab and vital sign changes, facial exams, ECG readings, suicidal behavior, and antibody responses. The main outcome is the reduction in monthly migraine days by Week 12, with ongoing evaluation of headache frequency, medication use, and safety measures through Week 36.

Researchers are studying influenza in children younger than 12 years to understand how the virus changes when treated with the drug baloxavir marboxil. This study has two parts Part A monitors the presence and development of specific changes in the virus before and after treatment in pediatric patients. Part B focuses on how influenza spreads within households from treated children under 12 to their family members, though no new participants will join Part B as per the latest study update. Participants receive a single oral dose of baloxavir marboxil on the first day, with the dose based on their body weight and age. Household contacts of the treated children are enrolled for observation but do not receive the drug. The study tracks viral changes and resistance at multiple points, including baseline and several days after treatment, and monitors influenza transmission within households. Throughout the study, children will undergo various tests such as local influenza and SARS-CoV-2 testing to confirm infection status. Researchers will measure how often virus mutations associated with resistance occur, changes in viral levels, and any side effects up to 29 days. For household contacts, influenza transmission and symptom development are checked on days 6 and 10. Participation involves scheduled visits and testing to gather this information, with the study expected to continue until mid-2027.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab delivered under the skin in adults with uncontrolled asthma who are already using medium-to-high doses of inhaled corticosteroids. This phase IIb, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to find the optimal dosing range of tozorakimab in this population. The study is sponsored by AstraZeneca and uses a randomized, parallel design to compare different doses and placebo. Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of either tozorakimab at one of two dose levels or a placebo. The study arms include dosing with tozorakimab Dose 1, tozorakimab Dose 2, or placebo, administered under the skin. The treatment period lasts from 26 to 52 weeks, during which participants will be monitored for their asthma symptoms and lung function. Throughout the study, participants will undergo assessments including lung function tests such as forced expiratory volume in 1 second FEV1, asthma control questionnaires ACQ-6, quality of life questionnaires AQLQ12, and measurements of asthma exacerbations. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug levels and immune response. Safety and adherence will be closely monitored, and the primary outcome is the annualized rate of severe asthma exacerbations over the treatment period.

This research aims to evaluate the effects of combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin compared to dapagliflozin alone in adults aged 40 and older who have type 2 diabetes, established cardiovascular disease, a history of hypertension with a systolic blood pressure of at least 130 mmHg, and at least one additional risk factor for heart failure. The study is a phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled trial focusing on preventing heart failure events and cardiovascular death. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either baxdrostat with dapagliflozin or placebo with dapagliflozin. Those starting the baxdrostatdapagliflozin treatment may begin with a lower baxdrostat dose that can be increased if certain criteria are met. A run-in period with dapagliflozin alone for 4 to 6 weeks may occur for those not previously treated or treated less than 4 weeks with SGLT2 inhibitors. Treatment visits will occur at about 2, 4, 8, 16, and 34 weeks after randomization, then every 4 months until study closure. Participants will undergo screening for eligibility within a 14-day period, with an optional pre-screening phase that does not require site visits or consent. During the study, regular assessments including monitoring for heart failure events and cardiovascular outcomes will be conducted. If participants stop the blinded treatment early, they may continue with open-label dapagliflozin unless specific discontinuation criteria apply. The study will continue until a predetermined number of cardiovascular events occur, with ongoing data collection and visits according to protocol.

Migraine is a common neurological disorder that causes moderate to severe headache attacks, often with nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of ubrogepant, a drug approved for adults, for the acute treatment of migraine in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. The trial includes two participant groups a pharmacokinetic PK cohort for dose analysis in younger children and a main study cohort involving randomized treatment with different ubrogepant doses or placebo. Participants aged 6 to 11 years in the PK cohort will receive one of two doses of ubrogepant to determine dosing for the main study. In the main study, children aged 6 to 11 and adolescents aged 12 to 17 will be randomly assigned to low or high doses of ubrogepant or placebo, with a one in three chance of receiving placebo. For qualifying migraine attacks, participants will take oral tablets of the assigned study treatment, with the option of a second dose or rescue medication at least two hours later if headaches remain moderate or severe. Participants will be involved for up to six months and will attend regular hospital or clinic visits. Researchers will monitor treatment effects using medical assessments, blood tests, side effect checks, and questionnaires. The primary outcome measured is the percentage of participants achieving pain freedom two hours after the initial dose. Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic data will also be collected to understand ubrogepants effects in this younger population.
