Researchers are looking for more ways to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that is recurrent. Researchers want to learn if recurrent advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) responds (gets smaller or goes away) after treatment with belzutifan (MK-6482) and zanzalintinib compared to cabozantinib. The goal of this study is to learn if: People who take belzutifan and zanzalintinib live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse than people who take cabozantinib.

This study will compare the retention rates for UPA vs. TNFi treatment in adult participants with moderate to severe active RA per local label and according to local standard of care This is a mono-country, prospective, multi-center observational study in patients with moderate to severe active RA receiving UPA or TNFi therapy. Around 678 participants will be enrolled in approximately 80 sites in Germany. Study recruitment will last approximately 24 months, and the study participation time will be up to 24 months, for a total study duration of approximately 48 months.

The prerequisite for participation in this observational study is the independent decision of the treating physician and patient to start an approved injectable or oral DMT for RMS as routine medical treatment. This decision must have been made prior to enrollment in this study. Cohort 1: The prospective observational period per patient in the core part will be up to approx. two years from the time of consent (2 years +2 months visit window). If a patient re-consents to the extension part, then the prospective extension observational period will be additional approx. two years, resulting in a total observational period (prospectively for the core and extension part \& retrospectively for the potential gap between core and extension part) of approx. 4 years (+ 2 month visit window). Cohort 2: The prospective observational period per patient will be up to approx. two years from the time of consent (2 years + 2 months visit window). The observational period will not be dictated by the protocol. The follow-up documentation will take place at a frequency defined as per investigator's discretion. The diagnostic or monitoring procedures are only those ordinarily applied to the therapeutic strategy and to routine clinical care, can be performed as telemedicine visits and will take place as per investigator's discretion.

Prospective, primary data will be collected from patients with sNfL outcomes in the context of switching to ofatumumab or continuing their current therapy. Data collection will cover a maximum period of 24 months. The observational period will not be dictated by the protocol. Baseline and follow-up visits will take place at a frequency defined as per Investigator´s discretion following clinical routine. The diagnostic or monitoring procedures are only those ordinarily applied to therapeutic strategy and routine clinical care. During the observation phase of the study, data will be collected according to standard of care as recommended by KKNMS (Competence Network Multiple Sclerosis in Germany). Eligible participants for the study are patients who have received treatment with category 1 DMTs and those who have included sNfL into their treatment decision-making process. These patients have the option to either continue their current DMT or switch to ofatumumab. According to local treatment guidelines, DMT category 1 include dimethylfumarate/diroximelfumarate, glatirameroids, Interferon beta and teriflunomide. The decision to switch to ofatumumab or to continue the current DMT category 1 therapy must be made by the treating physician independently of the decision to enroll the patient in the study.

This non-interventional study aims to provide information on real-world effectiveness, safety and tolerability, management of adverse events, QoL and patient compliance of patients with HR+/HER2- early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence treated with ribociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) ± luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) with curative intent according to the current effective local summary of product characteristics. In order to put the results of patients treated with ribociclib into perspective, socio-economic data, data on QoL and patient compliance will also be collected from patients treated with abemaciclib + endocrine therapy (ET) ± LHRH as described in the current effective local summary of product characteristics. To understand reasons for treatment decision, and to analyze the clinical adoption of ribociclib + AI ± LHRH after EU approval over time, baseline data will be collected from cohorts of ribociclib + AI ± LHRH, abemaciclib + ET ± LHRH, and additionally from patients treated with ET monotherapy ± LHRH and analyzed cross-sectionally. The study is planned to be rolled out into a broad set of German and Austrian breast centers and gynecological practices to describe clinical routine in a representative subset of the local healthcare eco-system. It will gather insights into the potential benefits and risks associated with ribociclib + AI ± LHRH in the adjuvant treatment of HR+/HER2- eBC patients at high risk of recurrence. This knowledge will inform about clinical decision-making and contribute to improved patient outcomes in routine practice.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the safety and performance of the MOBYBOX System in the veno-arterial configuration in patients with cardiorespiratory failure or in the veno-venous configuration in patients with severe respiratory failure.

The study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat participants living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (inactive substance that looks like the study medicine but does not contain any medicine). The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participant's chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study is expected to last for up to 1 year and 4 months.

Dose Optimization, Part A, and Part B are randomized. Safety Lead-In for Part B is single arm, non-randomized. Part C is non-randomized.

The primary objective of this study is to assess whether treatment with I-DXd improves objective response rate (ORR) and prolongs overall survival (OS) compared with treatment of physician's choice among participants with relapsed SCLC. The secondary objectives of the study are to further evaluate the efficacy/safety of I-DXd, health economics and outcome research measures (including patient reported outcomes), immunogenicity of I-DXd, B7-H3 protein expression, and characterize the pharmacokinetics of I-DXd.

Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease primarily affecting the axial skeleton. The most frequent axSpA symptom is chronic, often inflammatory back pain that might be difficult to distinguish from other causes of chronic back pain. Many participants report persistent pain, including back pain, which impacts disease activity and and impairs quality of life while evoking typical disease burden such as sleep disturbance, social isolation, loss of productivity, as well as anxiety and depression. This study will assess the real-world effectiveness of upadacitinib on early and sustained disease control, and the association between pain and clinical/patient-reported outcomes in axSpA participants. Upadacitinib is being developed for the treatment of axSpA. Approximately 352 adult participants with active axSpA will be enrolled in Germany. Participants will receive oral upadacitinib tablets as prescribed by the physician prior to enrolling in this study in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization and professional and reimbursement guidelines with regards to dose, population and indication. The overall duration of the study is approximately 52 weeks. There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to usual standard of care due to study procedures. Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
