Clinical trials

Claudin 18.2 or CLDN18.2 is a protein found on cells in the digestive system. It is also found in some tumors. Researchers are looking at ways to attack CLDN18.2 to help control tumors. ASP2138 is thought to bind to CLDN18.2 and a type of immune cell called a T cell. This "tells" the immune system to attack the tumor. ASP2138 is a potential treatment for people with gastric cancer (also known as stomach cancer) or gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJ cancer). GEJ is where the tube that carries food (esophagus) joins the stomach. This study is for people with gastric or GEJ cancer that has spread nearby (locally advanced) and is not removable by surgery (unresectable), or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). It is for those whose cancer is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative and CLDN18.2-positive. HER2-negative means the cancer does not have extra HER2 protein, so medicines that target HER2 do not work and are therefore not used. CLDN18.2-positive means people have a certain amount of CLDN18.2 proteins on their cancer cells. In this study, researchers want to learn if ASP2138 given together with standard treatments (chemotherapy and pembrolizumab) help people with HER2-negative and CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ cancer. The main aim is to learn how long people who are given ASP2138 with chemotherapy and pembrolizumab live without their cancer getting worse, compared with placebo given with chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab, and if they live for longer. Placebo looks like the study treatment but does not have any medicine in it. The main aim of this study is to check how well ASP2138 works when given together with chemotherapy and pembrolizumab compared with placebo plus chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab. People aged 18 years or older with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer can take part. Their tumor should be HER2-negative and CLDN18.2-positive. The study doctors will check people for any health conditions that can exclude them from taking part, interfere with the study procedures, or pose an unacceptable risk. This is a double-blind study. That means the people and the study doctors will not know who will receive which treatment. People will be assigned to one of 2 treatment groups by chance: Group A: People will receive ASP2138 along with chemotherapy and pembrolizumab. Group B: People will receive placebo along with chemotherapy, with or without pembrolizumab. People will keep receiving treatment until their cancer gets worse, they have medical problems that require stopping treatment, or a study rule says they must stop. There will be regular safety checks. People will continue to have scans of their tumor until their cancer becomes worse.

This study is being done to look at the effect and safety of different doses of NNC0662-0419 in people living with type 2 diabetes when compared to placebo or semaglutide. The purpose of this clinical study is to find out if NNC0662-0419 is effective and safe for treating people living with type 2 diabetes. Participants will get either NNC0662-0419, semaglutide or placebo. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. NNC0662-0419 is a new medicine which cannot be prescribed by doctors but has previously been tested in humans. Semaglutide is an approved medication to treat type 2 diabetes.

The study has 2 Modules: Module 1 for FL and Module 2 for LBCL.

This study is researching an experimental drug called ALN-SOD (called "study drug"). This study is focused on people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) caused by a change in a gene called the Superoxide Dismutase-1 (SOD1) gene. This type of ALS is known as "SOD1-ALS". This is the first time that ALN-SOD will be given to people. The aim of the study is to see how safe and tolerable the study drug is. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * The effect the study drug has on specific biomarkers, which are substances in the blood or in the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, known as Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) * How much study drug is in the blood and in the CSF, at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects) * What effects the study drug has on ALS symptoms

Claudin 18.2 protein, or CLDN18.2 is a protein found on cells in the digestive system. It is also found on some tumors. Researchers are looking at ways to attack CLDN18.2 to help control tumors. ASP2138 is thought to bind to CLDN18.2 and a protein on a type of immune cell called a T-cell. This "tells" the immune system to attack the tumor. ASP2138 is a potential treatment for people with stomach cancer, gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJ cancer) or pancreatic cancer. GEJ is where the tube that carries food (esophagus) joins the stomach. Before ASP2138 is available as a treatment, the researchers need to understand how it is processed by and acts upon the body. In this study, ASP2138 will either be given by itself, or given together with standard treatments for gastric, GEJ and pancreatic cancer. Pembrolizumab and mFOLFOX6, and ramucirumab and paclitaxel are standard treatments for gastric and GEJ cancer. mFOLFIRINOX is a standard treatment for pancreatic cancer. This information will help find a suitable dose of ASP2138 given by itself and together with the standard cancer treatments and to check for potential medical problems from the treatments. The main aims of the study are: * To check the safety of ASP2138 and how well people can tolerate medical problems during the study. * To find a suitable dose of ASP2138 to be used later in the study. * These are done for ASP2138 given by itself and when given together with the standard cancer treatments. Adults 18 years or older with stomach cancer, GEJ cancer, or pancreatic cancer can take part. Their cancer is locally advanced unresectable or metastatic. Locally advanced means the cancer has spread to nearby tissue. Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. There should also be the CLDN18.2 marker in a tumor sample. People cannot take part if they need to take medicines to suppress their immune system, have blockages or bleeding in their gut, have specific uncontrollable cancers, have specific infections, have a condition such as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) which is when the body over-reacts to a "trigger" such as infection, or have a specific heart condition ("New York Heart Association Class III or IV"). Phase 1: Lower to higher doses of ASP2138 * ASP2138 is either given through a vein (intravenous infusion) or just under the skin (subcutaneous injection). * Different small groups are given lower to higher doses of ASAP2138. * ASP2138 is either given by itself, or given with 1 of 3 standard treatments: * Pembrolizumab and mFOLFOX6 (first treatment for gastric GEJ cancer) * Ramacirumab and paclitaxel (Second treatment for gastric or GEJ cancer) * ASP2138 with mFOLFIRINOX (first treatment for pancreatic cancer) Phase 1b: doses of ASP2138 worked out from Phase 1 * ASP2138 is either given through a vein or just under the skin. This depends on the findings from Phase 1. * People with gastric cancer, GEJ cancer or pancreatic cancer are given doses of ASP2138, worked out from Phase 1. * This includes doses of ASP2138 given by itself and ASP2138 given with the standard cancer treatments. * The standard cancer treatments given depends on the type of cancer they have. End of treatment visit: This is 7 days after final dose of study treatment or if the study doctor decides to stop the person's treatment. People who have locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer will not receive ASP2138 by itself.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (UC). Current treatments for locally advanced or metastatic UC include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Researchers want to know if giving sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), the trial medicine, can treat locally advanced or metastatic UC that got worse after certain treatments. The goal of this trial is to learn if people who receive sac-TMT live longer than those who receive certain non-platinum chemotherapies.

The purpose of this trial is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of GEN1106 when it is used for the treatment of participants with certain types of cancer. The trial has multiple parts. The first part of the trial tests different doses of GEN1106 to find out if it is safe and determine what are the best doses to use. The second and third parts continues to test the safety of and how well GEN1106 works in additional participants with a specific cancer type and at doses chosen based on results from the first part of the trial. For each participant, the trial will last approximately 17 months but will vary for each person. This includes up to 21 days for screening prior to receiving trial treatment, approximately 5 months of treatment (the duration of treatment may vary for each participant), and approximately 11 months of follow up after trial treatment ends (the duration of follow up may vary for each participant). Participation in the trial will require visits to the site, with more frequent visits during the first 6 weeks of treatment and then less frequent visits afterwards. At site visits, there will be various tests (such as blood draws) and procedures (such as recording of heart activity, computed tomography \[CT\] scans) to monitor whether the treatment is safe and effective. All participants will receive active drug; no one will be given placebo.

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is characterized by aggressive and rapid growth and a tendency to develop early spread to distant sites including mediastinal lymph nodes, liver, bones, adrenal glands, and brain. The purpose of this study is to assess safety, tolerability, and change in disease activity of ABBV-706 compared to standard of care (SOC) treatment (topotecan, lurbinectedin, or amrubicin). ABBV-706 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of SCLC. There are two treatment arms in this study. Participants will either receive ABBV-706 or SOC. Approximately 531 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across 175 sites worldwide. Participants with SCLC will receive intravenous (IV) ABBV-706 or SOC \[topotecan (IV or orally), or lubinectedin (IV), or amrubicin (IV)\]. The estimated duration of the study is approximately 53 months. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic and may require frequent medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires, and scans.

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.

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.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat metastatic cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is cancer in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus (womb). Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. Researchers want to learn about giving the study medicine sacituzumab tirumotecan (also called sac-TMT or MK-2870) along with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab treatments. Sac-TMT is an antibody drug conjugate, which is a type of medicine that attaches to specific targets on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of sac-TMT with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab, and if people tolerate them when given together, and * If people who receive sac-TMT and pembrolizumab, with or without bevacizumab, live longer overall or without their cancer getting worse as compared to those who receive standard treatment
