Clinical trials

This study focuses on the treatment of liver metastases from three common cancers: colorectal cancer, triple-negative breast cancer and melanoma. Currently, there are limitations in the treatment of liver metastases of these cancers. Multimodal thermophysical ablation therapy can reshape the tumor microenvironment, release neoantigens, and act as an in-situ vaccine. On this basis, the combination of multimodal ablation with immunotherapeutic drugs such as pucotenlimab will be explored. The efficacy and safety of this combination therapy in patients with liver metastases of solid tumors will be investigated, with the expectation of breaking through the existing treatment limitations.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glofitamab in combination with gemcitabine plus oxaliplatin (GemOx) versus standard of care (SOC) in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) who have relapsed early (within 1 year) or are primary refractory to first-line therapy. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the Glofitamab-GemOx combination regimen or SOC. The SOC arm consists of investigator's choice of salvage chemoimmunotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for eligible patients. The primary endpoint of the study is event-free survival (EFS).

This study is open to adults with certain kidney conditions, including secondary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (sFSGS), treatment-resistant primary minimal change disease (TR-pMCD), Alport Syndrome (AS), and treatment-resistant primary membranous nephropathy (TR-pMN). Adolescents with treatment-resistant primary MCD can also participate in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 764198 helps people with these kidney conditions. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes BI 764198 tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like BI 764198 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet once a day for 20 weeks. All participants also continue their standard medication for their kidney condition during the study. Participants have twice the chance of being placed in the BI 764198 group than in the placebo group. Participants are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site 6 times and have 3 phone calls. Doctors regularly test the protein levels in participants' urine by collecting urine samples. They also check kidney function by taking blood samples. The results are compared between the two groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

This study is open to adults with advanced extrapulmonary neuroendocrine cancer. The purpose of this study is to find out if a study medicine called obrixtamig plus standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and etoposide) improves survival when compared to standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and etoposide) alone. Obrixtamig is an antibody-like molecule that may help the immune system fight cancer. Another purpose of the study is to test a medical device being developed to measure levels of the tumour marker delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3). Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group (treatment arm) receives obrixtamig and standard chemotherapy followed by obrixtamig alone for up to 3 years. The other group (control arm) receives standard chemotherapy without obrixtamig for about 4 months. All treatments are given as infusions into a vein. During the study, participants in both groups visit the study site regularly. Participants in the treatment arm stay overnight at the study site following the first 2 obrixtamig treatments. The doctors regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. At some of the visits, doctors check the size of the tumour(s). The results are compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works.

This study focuses on people with HIV who experience incomplete immune reconstitution despite suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART), characterized by persistently low CD4⁺ T cell counts and residual inflammation. The underlying cause is largely attributed to the persistent HIV latent reservoir. Recent evidence indicates that rilpivirine, a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) commonly used in ART, has an immunomodulatory function beyond its antiviral activity. It activates the CARD8 inflammasome - an intracellular "kill switch" - triggering pyroptosis selectively in HIV-infected cells. In this study, rilpivirine will be added to suppressive ART in patients with incomplete immune reconstitution. The investigators hypothesize that this strategy will reduce the latent reservoir, restore CD4⁺ T cell counts and function, attenuate excessive immune activation, and ultimately improve long-term clinical outcomes.

A study to evaluate the effect of abelacimab relative to placebo on the rate of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism (SE) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) who have been deemed by their responsible physicians or by their own decision to be unsuitable for oral anticoagulation therapy.

Exploring the dynamics of ctDNA following neoadjuvant therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitors combined with endocrine treatment, and its potential to guide de-escalation of adjuvant chemotherapy

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Researchers have designed a study medicine called ifinatamab deruxtecan (also called I-DXd or MK-2400) to treat mCRPC. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive I-DXd live longer overall and live longer without the cancer growing or spreading than people who receive chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of GDC-4198 alone and in combination with giredestrant and also the efficacy of GDC-4198 + giredestrant versus abemaciclib + giredestrant in participants with locally advanced or metastatic ER+, HER2- breast cancer. The study consists of 2 phases: Phase Ib and Phase II. Phase Ib will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of GDC-4198 alone and in combination with giredestrant. Phase II stage will compare the activity and safety of GDC-4198 and giredestrant with abemaciclib and giredestrant.

Although surgical resection is the gold standard for early breast cancer treatment, some patients cannot tolerate surgery due to medical conditions or refuse surgical treatment for cosmetic reasons. In recent years, the rapid development of ablation technology has provided new directions for breast cancer patients who are not suitable for surgical treatment. Ablation uses high or low temperatures to deactivate lesions or tissues, which are gradually absorbed by the body, achieving local treatment purposes. Its safety and efficacy have been preliminarily confirmed. As an advanced minimally invasive medical device independently developed in China, the combined cryo-thermal ablation system treats tumors using a combined mode of deep cryogenic freezing and high-intensity heating. It has been approved for ablation treatment of various solid tumors including lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, bone and soft tissue sarcomas. This project proposes a prospective cohort design, based on the breast disease cohort database of Peking University People's Hospital Breast Center. It will enroll patients pathologically diagnosed with breast cancer, determined unsuitable for surgical treatment, and have received combined cryo-thermal ablation. The registered data will be used to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous ultrasound-guided cryo-thermal composite ablation in this population.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of mezigdomide (CC-92480), bortezomib and dexamethasone (MeziVd) versus pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who received between 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy and who have had prior lenalidomide exposure.

Ciprofol is a novel intravenous anesthetic with a pharmacological profile similar to propofol but with a lower incidence of injection pain, hypotension, and respiratory depression. For pediatric day-case surgeries, laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion without neuromuscular blockers is increasingly preferred. While opioids are often combined with hypnotics to optimize insertion conditions, the optimal bolus dose of ciprofol when co-administered with a standard dose of fentanyl for LMA insertion in children remains unknown. This study aims to determine the 95% effective dose (ED95) of a single intravenous bolus of ciprofol, combined with a fixed dose of fentanyl (1 μg/kg), for successful LMA insertion in children aged 1-12 years during general anesthesia induction.

This non-interventional, cross-sectional study aims to investigate treatment preferences from a sample of physicians and patients with experience of 1L EGFR-TKI for stage IV NSCLC by administering a survey, which primarily includes a DCE approach.

The purpose of this study is to test a new medicine, vepugratinib, in comparison with placebo, to see if it is safe and can help people with a bladder cancer that is advanced or has spread. Vepugratinib or placebo will be administered in combination with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab. Study participation could last up to approximately 6 years.

The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to demonstrate the efficacy of claseprubart (DNTH103) as compared to placebo in participants with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP).

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA). R-axSpA is a type of arthritis that causes pain, stiffness, and inflammation (swelling) in the spine and joints in the pelvis (hip bone). Radiographic means the damage it causes can be seen on X-rays. This study will help find out if a study medicine called tulisokibart can treat symptoms of r-axSpA. Researchers will look at different doses of tulisokibart. Researchers want to know if at least one of the study doses of tulisokibart works better than a placebo to improve r-axSpA symptoms. A placebo looks like the study medicine but has no study medicine in it. Using a placebo helps researchers better understand the effects of the study medicine.

Given that pyrotinib has been proven to exert significant efficacy against HER2-positive advanced breast cancer in multiple Phase III studies, and the novel ADC drug disitamab vedotin has demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity, there remains insufficient real-world data on their sequential administration. This multicenter, prospective real-world study plans to enroll 500 patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer receiving first-line or second-line treatment. It aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential disitamab vedotin treatment after disease progression or intolerance to pyrotinib-based regimens (first-line: pyrotinib plus trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy; second-line: pyrotinib plus capecitabine). The primary endpoint is real-world second progression-free survival (rwPFS2), while secondary endpoints cover real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS), tumor response, overall survival (OS), time to treatment failure, safety profiles and patient-reported outcomes. It is currently expected to further validate the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer in the real-world setting, and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of recindopril trastuzumab following pyrotinib-containing regimens.
