Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (PCNSL) is a rare lymphoma affecting only the central nervous system compartment. PCNSL patients are typically 60 years or older and have poor prognoses. However, there are alternative treatment approaches to consider with the potential to improve medical outcomes for this patient population. The current standard of care in Germany and many international centres for patients 65 and older is treatment with R-MP, comprising rituximab, high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) and procarbazine followed by maintenance therapy with procarbazine. An alternative approach comprised of a shorter induction treatment with rituximab, HD-MTX and cytarabine (MARTA) followed by age-adjusted high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (HCT-ASCT) was recently shown to be feasible and effective in elderly PCNSL patients considered eligible for high-dose chemotherapy requiring autologous stem cell transplantation. Nevertheless, data evaluating this short duration treatment approach remains scarce, and randomized trials have not yet been published. The objective of the PRIMA-CNS trial is to demonstrate that intensified chemotherapy followed by consolidating HCT-ASCT is superior to conventional chemotherapy with R-MP followed by maintenance with procarbazine in elderly patients with newly diagnosed PCNSL; not only regarding survival and remission after treatment but also regarding standards like quality of life (QOL) and treatment related morbidities. Results of this randomized trial will either change the standard of care to an intense and shorter treatment approach or re-define R-MP as a proven treatment standard. In addition, a geriatric assessement is implemented in this trial with the goal to better define transplant eligibility. If this trial shows the superiority of HCT-ASCT, the investigators will establish an improved treatment standard with increased chances for long-term remission and cure and reduced frequency and length of chemotherapy treatment. Considering the poor prognosis of this patient population, this randomized phase III trial is of great clinical importance to provide patients, the patients' families and care takers with optimal treatment.

The presence of a BRAFV600E mutation is a marker of poor prognosis in patients with mCRC and associated with a median overall survival (mOS) of approximately 12 to 14 months compared to 20 to 25 months for pa-tients with BRAF wild-type tumors. After 1st line therapy, treatment out-comes with standard therapy are poor in patients with BRAF-mutated mCRC, with response rates (ORR) of ≤ 11%, a median progression-free survival (mPFS) between 1.8 and 2.8 months, and a mOS between 4.1 and 6.2 months. Failure to achieve adequate survival outcomes with standard treatment regimens in patients with BRAF-mutated mCRC has encouraged efforts to combine multiple targeted therapies: With 665 randomized patients, the BEACON CRC trial represents the largest trial and is currently the only phase III study in patients with BRAFV600E-mutant mCRC. After a safety lead in for dose confirmation of the triplet regimen, the phase III part was per-formed with a total of 665 patients, randomized 1:1:1 to either receive encorafenib plus binimetinib and cetuximab (triplet) or encorafenib plus cetuximab (doublet) or FOLFIRI / IRI plus cetuximab (control). The BEACON CRC study met its primary endpoints Overall Response Rate (ORR) and Overall Survival (OS) comparing Encorafenib + Binimetinib + Cetuximab vs. Chemotherapy + Cetuximab (ORR: 26 vs. 2%, p\<0.001; OS: median 9.0 vs. 5.4 months, HR 0.52, p\<0.001). The BEACON CRC study was alpha-controlled also for the secondary endpoint comparing Encorafenib + Cetuximab vs. Chemotherapy + Cetuximab in terms of ORR and OS and showed a statistically significant advantage (ORR: 20 vs. 2%, p\<0.001; OS: median 8.4 vs. 5.4 months, HR 0.60, p\<0.001). In terms of safety, the overall frequency of adverse events grade 3/4 was 58% (En-corafenib + Binimetinib + Cetuximab) vs. 50% (Encorafenib + Cetuximab) vs. 61% (Chemotherapy + Cetuximab). Analysis of Quality of Life data resulted in a longer maintenance of Quality of Life in the Encorafenib + Binimetinib + Cetuximab arm and the Encorafenib + Cetuximab arm com-pared to Chemotherapy + Cetuximab. Between Encorafenib + Binimetinib + Cetuximab and Encorafenib + Cetuximab, no relevant differences were reported. With a longer Follow-Up (12.8 months) the updated OS data showed a median OS of 9.3 months in both the Encorafenib + Binimetinib + Cetuximab arm and the Encorafenib + Cetuximab arm compared to 5.9 months in the control arm. Updated ORR rates were 27% in the triplet arm (p\<0.0001 vs. control), 20% in the doublet arm (p\<0.0001 vs. control) and 2% in the control arm. The safety and tolerability were adequate, manage-able and consistent with the known profiles of BRAF-, MEK-, and EGFR-inhibitors. Regarding the triplet combination, the most common adverse events of any grade were diarrhea (triplet: 62%; control: 48%), dermatitis acneiform (triplet: 49%; control: 39%), nausea (triplet: 45%; control: 41%), and vomiting (triplet: 38%; control: 29%). Regarding the doublet combina-tion, the most common adverse events of any grade were nausea (34%), diarrhea (33%), fatigue (doublet 30%; triplet 33%; control 27%) and derma-titis acneiform (29%). The most common updated grade ≥3 adverse events regarding the triplet combination were diarrhea (triplet: 11%; control: 10%), abdominal pain (triplet: 6%; control: 5%), nausea (triplet: 5%; control: 2%,vomiting (triplet: 5%; control: 3%) and intestinal obstruction (triplet 5%; control 3%). With the doublet regimen, the most common updated grade ≥3 adverse events were intestinal obstruction (doublet 5%), asthenia (doublet 4%; triplet 4%; control 5%), fatigue (doublet 4%; triplet 2%; control 5%), diarrhea (3%) and abdominal pain (3%). Based on these data, it is expected that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) will approve encorafenib plus cetuximab for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic BRAFV600E-mutant CRC, who have received prior systemic therapy. Data from pivotal clinical trials are usually based on a selected patient population in order to provide standardized results in the given indication. However, after marketing authorization usage in a broader patient popula-tion is to be expected. Therefore, BERINGCRC - designed as a prospective (allowing initial retrospective documentation), longitudinal, non-interventional study - will investigate the real-world effectiveness, quality of life, safety and tolerability of encorafenib and cetuximab in BRAFV600E-mutant mCRC patients, who have received prior systemic therapy.

This study is open to adults with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. People can join the study if they have these conditions and do not have a history of heart failure. The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called vicadrostat, when taken with empagliflozin, helps reduce cardiovascular risk in people with these conditions. The study will compare this combination to a placebo version of vicadrostat with empagliflozin. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets with empagliflozin. Placebo tablets look like vicadrostat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet once per day for 2 and a half years and up to 4 years and 3 months. All participants also continue their medication for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. Participants have an equal chance of receiving the study medicine or placebo. Participants are in the study for up to 4 years and 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site regularly. During these visits, doctors collect information about participants' health and take blood samples. The doctors document when participants experience cardiovascular events. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

The purpose of the study is to compare how the new combination treatment (Sigvotatug Vedotin plus pembrolizumab) works compared to pembrolizumab alone in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with high levels of PD-L1. This is a protein that acts as a kind of "brake" to keep the body's immune responses under control. The study is seeking for participants who: * Are confirmed to have NSCLC (Stage 3 or 4). * Have PD-L1 levels in more than 50% of the cancer cells. All participants in this study will receive pembrolizumab at the study clinic once every 6 weeks as an intravenous (IV) infusion (give directly into a vein). In addition, half of the participants will also receive Sigvotatug Vedotin once every 2 weeks as an IV infusion in addition to receiving pembrolizumab. Participants may receive pembrolizumab for up to about two years. Those participants taking Sigvotatug Vedotin can continue until their NSCLC is no longer responding. The study team will monitorsee how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the clinic.
