There are 2 study treatments in this study taken as injections under the skin once a week. Participants will either get NNC0487-0111, (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it) and which treatment participants get is decided by chance.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of cevostamab in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone (CevosPd) versus standard of care (SOC) in participants with multiple myeloma (MM) who have received one to three prior lines of therapy and have been exposed to an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and lenalidomide.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if morphine added to the spinal anaesthesia can improve postoperative pain treatment for patients undergoing caesarean section, without increasing the risk of serious adverse events in mother and baby. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the treatment effective in preventing postoperative pain? * Is the treatment safe for both mother and baby? Participants will be given a normal spinal anaesthesia with addition of either morphine or sodium chloride (inactive substance). All participants will receive standard postoperative pain treatment, including morphine tablets as needed. Researchers will collect data from the electronic medical record and ask the participants to fill out questionnaires about pain levels and possible side effects.

This is a Phase 2 global, multi-center, open-label study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of surovatamig (AZD0486) monotherapy in adult participants with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) who have received at least two prior lines of therapies. The study has 2 Modules: Module 1 for FL and Module 2 for LBCL.

The primary objectives are to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in participants who receive sotorasib with platinum doublet chemotherapy versus participants who receive pembrolizumab with platinum doublet chemotherapy.

The brain is protected from any toxic or inflammatory molecule by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This physical barrier is located at the level of the blood vessel walls. Because of these barrier properties, the blood vessels are also impermeable to the passage of therapeutic molecules from the blood to the brain. The development of effective treatments against glioblastoma is thus limited due to the BBB that prevents most drugs injected in the bloodstream from getting into brain tissue where the tumour is seated. The SonoCloud-9 (SC9) is an investigational device using ultrasound technology and specially developed to open the BBB in the area of and surrounding the tumour. The transient opening of the BBB allows more drugs to reach the brain tumour tissue. Carboplatin is a chemotherapy that is approved to treat different cancer types alone or in combination with other drugs, and has been used in the treatment of glioblastoma. Despite its proven efficacy in the laboratory on glioblastoma cells, carboplatin does not readily cross the BBB in humans. A clinical trial has shown that in combination with the SonoCloud-9, more carboplatin can reach the brain tumour tissue. The objective of the proposed trial is to show that the association - carboplatin with the SonoCloud-9 - will increase efficacy of the drug in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

This open-label, exploratory study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of targeted therapies or immunotherapy as single agents or combinations, in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) whose tumors are biomarker positive as per treatment arm-specific definition. Eligible participants with mCRC will be enrolled into specific treatment arms based on their biomarker assay results.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A standard (usual) treatment for certain people with RCC is belzutifan (a study medicine), which is a targeted therapy. Targeted therapy is a treatment that works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread. Researchers want to learn if adding another targeted therapy called zanzalintinib (another study medicine) can treat more people with advanced RCC than belzutifan alone. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive belzutifan and zanzalintinib live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse compared to people who receive belzutifan and placebo.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat ovarian cancer (OC). Current treatment for OC may start with surgery to remove as much of the cancer as possible. After surgery, people may receive chemotherapy. After chemotherapy, standard care options may include: * Maintenance treatment, which is used after another therapy to keep the cancer from growing, spreading, or coming back. Bevacizumab is a targeted therapy used as standard maintenance treatment. Targeted therapy works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread. * Observation, which is watching to see if cancer grows or worsens The study medicine, sacituzumab tirumotecan (also called sac-TMT), is a targeted therapy. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive sac-TMT maintenance treatment with or without bevacizumab live longer without the cancer getting worse than people who receive standard care.

In Denmark, around 25,000 children under 18 undergo general anesthesia annually. Hospital stays and anesthesia can induce significant anxiety and stress in children due to unfamiliar environments, procedures, and communication issues. This anxiety can be linked to postoperative complications such as emergence delirium and may negatively impact both the child and their family's well-being. Engaging patients actively in their healthcare, including pediatric cases, is essential for improving outcomes. Assessing perioperative patient and family outcomes, particularly through patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) and patient-reported experience measures (PREM), can significantly enhance the quality of care provided to children. While PROMs are widely used in adults, they are less common in pediatric settings. The Pediatric Scale for Quality of Recovery (PedSQoR), developed by Australian and American researchers, is one such tool designed to measure recovery in children. This study aims to translate andvalidate the PedSQoR for Danish children aged 4-12. Furthermore, no existing instruments comprehensively assess pediatric surgery patients' experiences under general anesthesia, particularly from the child's perspective without relying on parents as proxies. Empowering children to express their healthcare experiences gives healthcare workers an insight into what matters for children and gives children a more positive outlook on healthcare, benefiting lifelong engagement. Study Aims and Objectives: The study aims to enhance the assessment of children's outcomes and experiences in perioperative settings, ultimately improving pediatric perioperative healthcare. The objectives include: 1. Translation and Adaptation: a. Translate and adapt the PedSQoR for Danish children aged 4-12. b. Validate the Danish PedSQoR version. 2. Development of a PREM Instrument: a. Develop a comprehensive PREM for children's experiences during surgery and anesthesia. b. Pilot-test and adjust the PREM questionnaire with a group of children aged 4-12. Study Methods: 1. PedSQoR Translation and Validation: A single-center prospective cohort study will adapt and test the PedSQoR for Danish children. The process involves translating the 21-item scale, validating it with a sample size of 150, and ensuring reliability through various statistical methods, including Cronbach's Alpha and test-retest reliability. Data will be collected from the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care at Gødstrup Hospital. 2. PREM Instrument Development: This study will develop a PREM instrument using the Warwick Patient Experiences Framework (WaPEF), which encompasses seven dimensions of patient experience. The process will involve forming a panel of child experts, conducting focus groups, and translating insights into a pictorial questionnaire. The PREM will undergo pilot testing with 20 children to validate its effectiveness in capturing the dimensions of the WaPEF. Research Ethics: Given the vulnerability of children in research, this study will prioritize their safety and comfort, ensuring the study's benefits outweigh any potential risks. Informed consent will be obtained from both parents and children. The study will be registered with the Region Central Denmark's list of research projects and will not require approval from the Scientific Ethics Committee.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD5148 for prevention of recurrence of Clostridioides difficile infection in Individuals 18 years of age and above.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BG-75098 alone and in combination with BGB-43395 and fulvestrant in participants with advanced solid tumors.

This is a Phase 2b study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Imeroprubart in adults with CIDP.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) endometrial cancer (EC) that is advanced or recurrent. * EC is a type of cancer that starts in the tissues inside the uterus (womb) * pMMR indicates that certain normal proteins are present in the cancer cells * Advanced means the cancer has spread locally or to other parts of the body (metastatic) and cannot be removed with surgery * Recurrent means the cancer came back after surgery Sacituzumab tirumotecan (also known as sac-TMT) and pembrolizumab are the study medicines. Sac-TMT is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to specific targets on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive sac-TMT with pembrolizumab live longer and without the cancer getting worse compared to people who receive pembrolizumab alone.

The study treatment, BAY 3713372, is under development to treat MTAP (methylthioadenosine phosphorylase)-deleted solid tumors. It is thought to work by blocking the protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5). This may kill the MTAP-deleted cancer cells while sparing the normal cells. The main objective of this first-in-human study is to learn how safe BAY 3713372 is, how the body processes it, and how well it works in people with MTAP-deleted solid tumors. For this, the researchers will study and analyze: * the number of participants who have adverse events (AEs) after receiving different doses of BAY 3713372 and the AE's severity. * the number of participants who experience dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) after receiving different doses of BAY 3713372, the DLT's severity and how often they happened. A DLT is a pre-defined medical problem caused by a specific dose of a drug that is too severe to continue using that dose. * the total amount of BAY 3713372 in participants' blood (also called AUC) over time after single and multiple doses. * the highest level of BAY 3713372 in participants' blood (also called Cmax) after single and multiple doses. Other than the main objective, researchers will also check for the number of participants who show a response to treatment and how long they live without the cancer getting worse. The study participants will take part in one of the eight distinct groups or "intervention cohorts" of the study. The study will start with a dose escalation phase where distinct groups of participants will receive different doses of BAY 3713372 alone to find the dose that is deemed safe and works best for the participants. When this dose has been found, a larger number of participants will receive BAY 3713372 alone or with other treatments in a dose expansion phase. Participants may take the study treatment as long as they benefit from the treatment without any severe medical problems. Participants will visit the study site: * at least twice before the treatment starts * multiple times when they start taking the treatment * once after 30 days of receiving the last dose and every 9 weeks after that until the cancer worsens, or the participant stops for any other reason During the study, the doctors and their study team will: * check participants' health by performing tests such as blood and urine tests, and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram * check if the participants' cancer has grown and/or spread using computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, if needed, bone scan * take tumor samples The study doctors and their team will contact the participants every 3 months until 2 years after the last participant's last dose or the end of the study to learn about the participant's health.

Researchers want to know if sacituzumab tirumotecan given alone or with pembrolizumab can treat triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). The main goal of this study is to learn if people treated with sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or with pembrolizumab live longer overall or without the cancer growing or spreading compared to people treated with chemotherapy.

The goal of this case-control study is to pave the way for new revolutionary treatment measures within hearing loss that could either replace or delay the need for hearing aids. The study focuses on people with Turner syndrome (TS). The aim is to find out if there are specific DNA methylation patterns and/or RNA expression profiles linked to sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in people with TS. Additionally, the structure and function of the inner ear in these individuals will be examined to see if there is a connection to their epigenetic profile. The main question it aims to answer is: Does epigenetics constitute a common denominator for some of the unexplained SNHL cases? Turner Syndrome (TS) represents an ideal model for studying epigenetics related to sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Participants will undergo the following tests: * Ear examinations * Hearing tests * Balance tests * Blood tests * MRI scans * CBCT (cone-beam computed tomography) scans

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC means lung cancer that has spread nearby or to other parts of the body or is unlikely to be controlled with current treatments. HER2 is a protein that helps cells to grow and divide. Sometimes, cancer cells have a damaged HER2 gene. This is called a mutation. This mutation can lead to an abnormal HER2 protein which may cause cancer cells to grow and divide too quickly. The study treatment, sevabertinib, is designed to block the mutated HER2 protein and may help slow or stop the cancer from growing. The main purpose of this study is to find out how well sevabertinib works and how safe it is, compared with standard treatment in participants with advanced NSCLC with a HER2 mutation. The study participants will receive one of the study treatments: * Sevabertinib as a tablet taken by mouth twice a day * Standard approved treatment for this condition given by infusion into a vein every 21 days Participants will continue their assigned treatment for as long as they benefit from it and do not experience severe side effects, or until they or their doctor decide to stop treatment. When a participant assigned to the standard treatment has their cancer gets worse, they may have the opportunity to switch to receive sevabertinib. This switch is called a crossover. Participants who switch to sevabertinib will continue this treatment until their disease gets worse again, they have side effects that are too severe, or they or their doctor decide to stop treatment. During the study, the research team will: * do scans such as CT, PET, MRI, or X-rays to check the cancer * Check the overall health of the participants by performing tests such as blood and urine tests and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram and echocardiogram. * do pregnancy tests when needed * ask how the participants are feeling and whether they have had any adverse events or other health problems An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatment.

This is a randomized, open-label study comparing the efficacy and safety of adjuvant sacituzumab tirumotecan (MK-2870) in combination with pembrolizumab compared to treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in participants with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who received neoadjuvant therapy and did not achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) at surgery. The primary objective is to compare sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab to TPC (pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab plus capecitabine) with respect to invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) per investigator assessment. It is hypothesized that sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab is superior to TPC with respect to iDFS per investigator assessment.

The goal of this age-based cohort study is to provide normative data of vestibular function in the general Danish pediatric population. Thus, the investigators will be able to compare patient data with norms, allowing for more precise diagnostics. The participants will be children in the age of 6 months to 10 years, without any known hearing or balance problems. The test protocol consists of questionnaires, hearing screening and vestibular and postural assessments.

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate the vestibular function in children with unilateral or bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. The main hypothesis of the study is that abnormal vestibular test results will be found in 20-30 % of the children with sensorineural hearing loss. The participants will be children in the age of 3-10 years with sensorineural hearing loss. The test protocol consists of questionnaires and vestibular and postural assessments.

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate the vestibular function in children suspected of balance disorders, and to follow up on their balance progressions after rehabilitation. The main hypothesis of the study is that delayed gross motor development and symptoms of dizziness and balance problems in some children are caused by vestibular dysfunction. The investigators expect that early detection and rehabilitation by a physiotherapist will improve the balance ability for the child. The participants will be children in the age of 6 months to 10 years with delayed gross motor development and/or with dizziness/balance problems. The test protocol consists of questionnaires, hearing screening and vestibular and postural assessments.

The purpose of this Phase 2/3, randomized, multisite, open-label, dose confirmation, and expansion study is to evaluate the safety, and efficacy of zilovertamab vedotin (ZV) in combination with standard of care options for the treatment of rrDLBCL. This study will be divided into 2 parts: Dose Confirmation (Part 1) and Efficacy Expansion (Part 2) and will enroll participants who are at least 18 years of age with rrDLBCL. The hypotheses are: ZV in combination with rituximab, gemcitabine, and oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) is superior to R-GemOx with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Lugano response criteria by blinded independent review committee (BICR); and that ZV in combination with bendamustine rituximab (BR) is superior to BR with respect to PFS per Lugano response criteria by BICR. With protocol amendment 4 (effective: 04-April-2024), enrollment in Cohort B (study arms Bendamustine Rituximab \[BR\] and ZV + BR) is discontinued. No efficacy outcome analysis and hypothesis testing will be conducted for Cohort B.
