Clinical trials

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is unresected and has a gene mutation called KRAS G12C. Researchers want to learn if calderasib (MK-1084) can be given with durvalumab, an immunotherapy, to treat NSCLC after chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The goal of this trial is to learn if participants who receive calderasib and durvalumab live longer without the cancer growing or spreading compared to participants who receive placebo and durvalumab.

The main goal of the study is to find out whether XEMBIFY, given once a week under the skin, provides similar levels of immunoglobulin G in the blood over time as Gamunex-C, which is given into a vein once every 3 weeks in people with CIDP. Participants with CIDP will first have up to 28 days of screening to make sure they can join the study. Those who qualify will then start a 19-week treatment period with Gamunex-C. During this period, they will receive Gamunex-C through a vein once every 3 weeks, for a total of 7 doses. Approximately, one week after their last Gamunex-C dose, they will begin a 16-week treatment period with XEMBIFY under the skin, once a week for a total of 16 doses. Blood samples will be collected during both treatment periods to measure IgG level in the blood.

Phase II study in participants with moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) to evaluate efficacy and safety of AZD1163.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). ES-SCLC is a type of lung cancer that has spread throughout the lung, to the other lung, or to other parts of the body. A standard (usual) treatment for ES-SCLC uses both chemotherapy and immunotherapy. * Chemotherapy is a treatment that works to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing. * Immunotherapy is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. Gocatamig and I-DXd (short for ifinatamab deruxtecan) are study medicines. Researchers want to know if giving gocatamig and I-DXd together can treat ES-SCLC. Researchers will also look at giving the study medicines with standard treatment. Gocatamig is a T-cell engager therapy. I-DXd is an antibody drug conjugate. * T-cell engager therapy is a certain type of immunotherapy that uses T-cells to find and destroy cancer cells. * A T-cell is a type of white blood cell, which are cells that help the body fight infection. * An antibody drug conjugate (ADC) is a treatment that attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of combining gocatamig and I-DXd and if people tolerate them together * If people who receive gocatamig and I-DXd have ES-SCLC respond, which means the cancer gets smaller or goes away

The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of R-mini-CHOP × 2 followed by AZD0486 compared with R-mini-CHOP × 6 in elderly or unfit participants newly diagnosed with LBCL.

This is a two-part, Phase I/II, open-label, global, multicenter study assessing the safety and efficacy of the combination of tulmimetostat (DZR123) and JSB462 (luxdegalutamide) versus standard of care in participants with progressive metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

A Study of Izalontamab Brengitecan (BMS-986507) versus Platinum-Pemetrexed for EGFR-mutated Non-small Cell Lung Cancer after failure of EGFR TKI Therapy

This is a randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter phase 2b/3 study with an adaptive seamless design. The goal fo this study is to determine if an investigational drug, Zelpultide Alfa, can reduce the occurrence of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) in extremely premature babies. The study comprises 2 parts: * Part 1: Phase 2b, dose selection and exploratory efficacy and safety. * Part 2: Phase 3, confirmatory efficacy and safety. In Part 1, the study subjects will be randomized with a 1:1:1 allocation ratio to either : 1. Standard of care + zelpultide alfa 4 mg/kg or, 2. Standard of care + zelpultide alfa 6 mg/kg or, 3. Standard of care + placebo (air-sham). In Part 1, all three arms will be evaluated descriptively to support dose selection based on safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy signals. Upon completion of Part 1, the DSMC will recommend which Phase 2b dose ("selected dose") to progress into Part 2 to the Study Steering Committee, which will decide the dose for Part 2 (Phase 3). A sample size reassessment will be performed after Part 1 completion. In Part 2, the selected dose of zelpultide alfa will be compared against placebo (air-sham) in a confirmatory analysis on the primary and key secondary endpoints. The study subjects will be randomized with a 1:1 allocation ratio to either: 1. Standard of care + zelpultide alfa (selected dose from Part 1), or 2. Standard of care + placebo (air-sham). The main objective in part 2 is to compare the efficacy of zelpultide alfa added to standard of care versus standard of care plus placebo (air-sham) in terms of incidence of grade 2 and grade 3 bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and death in neonates at high risk for developing BPD. In both parts, treatment will be administered intratracheally. Participants will receive up to 7 administrations of zelpultide alfa at (4mg/kg or 6 mg/kg) or air-sham in 24 h intervals while the subjects are still intubated per standard of care.

The purpose of this substudy is to assess the efficacy and safety of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd), given alone or with other treatments in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The main aim of this study is to learn about medical problems (adverse events) if vedolizumab subcutaneously (SC) is given to a child or teenager with UC or CD for a long time. Other aims are to understand if the long time use of vedolizumab SC has an impact on the time period until hospital visits because of bowel swelling (inflammation) are needed and has an impact on the quality of life of children and teenagers who received vedolizumab SC. In this study, participants who responded well to the treatment with vedolizumab SC in the parent study (VedolizumabSC-3003 \[NCT06100289\]) will continue to be treated with vedolizumab SC. Participants who did not respond well to the treatment with vedolizumab SC in the parent study or who received corticosteroids in the last 4 weeks of the parent study will not receive vedolizumab SC in this study but will be followed for up to 2 years after the last treatment with vedolizumab SC in the parent study. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times.

Elective breast reduction surgery is associated with moderate-to-severe postoperative pain and a risk of developing chronic postsurgical pain. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols and the Procedure-Specific Postoperative Pain Management (PROSPECT) guidelines emphasize the importance of multimodal analgesia to reduce pain, minimize opioid consumption, and accelerate functional recovery following surgical procedures, including breast surgery. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has demonstrated effectiveness in breast reduction surgery by reducing postoperative pain intensity, perioperative opioid and non-opioid analgesic consumption, and improving patient satisfaction and recovery time. Furthermore, the use of ESPB has been associated with a reduced incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. ESPB is performed with the patient in the sitting position and involves ultrasound-guided identification of the vertebral transverse processes on the side of the block, typically in the interscapular region, followed by the injection of approximately 20 mL of local anesthetic adjacent to the transverse process. When required, the procedure is performed bilaterally at the same vertebral level. ESPB is considered one of the simplest regional anesthesia techniques to perform. Intravenous lidocaine infusion has been shown to significantly reduce opioid requirements and postoperative pain intensity across a wide range of surgical procedures, particularly in abdominal and breast surgery. Moreover, intraoperative lidocaine infusion has been associated with a reduced risk of chronic postsurgical pain following breast surgery. This study was designed to investigate whether intraoperative intravenous lidocaine infusion is non-inferior to ESPB in reducing postoperative pain and improving the quality of recovery following non-oncological breast reduction surgery. Intravenous lidocaine infusion may provide analgesic efficacy and recovery outcomes comparable to those achieved with ESPB, thereby representing a less invasive alternative within a multimodal analgesic strategy.

The development of chronic postoperative pain (CPP) following surgery is influenced by several factors, among which the intensity of acute postoperative pain in the immediate perioperative period and mechanisms related to nerve fiber injury play a crucial role. Previous studies have demonstrated that factors such as the severity of early postoperative pain, patient age, and the extent of surgical intervention may increase the risk of transition from acute to chronic pain. In recent years, growing attention has been directed toward anesthetic techniques and adjuvant analgesics (co-analgesics) administered during surgery, which may potentially reduce the incidence of CPP. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of intraoperative intravenous infusions of dexmedetomidine or lidocaine during urethral reconstructive surgery on postoperative pain intensity, patient-reported quality of recovery, and the incidence and characteristics of chronic postoperative pain, including its neuropathic component. In particular, the study will investigate whether administration of these agents reduces pain intensity during the first 48 hours after surgery-which, according to existing evidence, may correlate with the risk of CPP development-and whether intraoperative infusion of lidocaine or dexmedetomidine translates into reduced pain severity and a lower risk of neuropathic pain at long-term follow-up (3, 6, and 12 months after surgery). An important aspect of this project is that both investigational drugs-lidocaine and dexmedetomidine-have an established role in routine anesthesiology practice, and their safety profiles are well characterized and extensively documented in the medical literature. Intravenous lidocaine infusion has been used for many years as part of multimodal perioperative analgesia; numerous randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses have confirmed its efficacy in reducing postoperative pain intensity and opioid requirements, with a low risk of adverse effects when administered at therapeutic doses. Dexmedetomidine has been routinely used for years both in intensive care units and as a component of general anesthesia across a wide range of surgical procedures. Its analgesic, anxiolytic, and opioid-sparing effects have been supported by a substantial body of clinical evidence, and the doses used in the present protocol are consistent with established clinical practice.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well brenipatide (LY3537031) is tolerated, what side effects may occur, and the safety and efficacy in participants with Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Diarrhea (IBS-D). The study drug will be administered subcutaneously (SC) (under the skin) when compared with placebo. The study will last approximately 36 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well LY4005130 is tolerated and what side effects may occur in participants with non-segmental vitiligo (NSV) when compared with placebo. The study drug will be administered intravenously (IV) (into a vein in the arm). Blood tests will be performed to investigate how the body processes the study drug and how the study drug affects the body. The study will last approximately 48 weeks, including screening.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat high-risk, localized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has been removed with surgery. People with high-risk, localized NSCLC are often treated with surgery. Researchers want to learn if participants can receive 1 or 2 trial treatments to help prevent NSCLC from coming back after surgery. One trial medicine is intismeran (also called V940/mRNA-4157) and the other is subcutaneous pembrolizumab (also called SC pembrolizumab and MK-3475A). Intismeran is designed to help a person's immune system attack their specific cancer. SC pembrolizumab is an immunotherapy treatment which helps the immune system fight cancer. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adjuvant intismeran autogene (V940) in combination with SC pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa (MK-3475A) or intismeran monotherapy improves disease-free survival (DFS) compared with placebo in participants with completely resected high-risk Stage I NSCLC.
