Clinical trials

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.

The main purpose of this clinical study is to investigate the effectiveness workflow of the clinical use of the pulsed field (PF) ablation system (VARIPULSE™ Catheter and TRUPULSE™ Generator) when used for cardiac ablation with the new VARIPULSE™ Pro software in participants with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF; irregular heartbeat where episodes start and stop on their own, usually within seven days) and persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF; irregular, rapid heartbeat that lasts over 7 days up to 1year and doesn't stop on its own).

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 the study is to evaluate efficacy of riliprubart compared to IVIg in adult participants with CIDP who are receiving maintenance treatment with IVIg. The study duration will be for a maximum of 109 weeks including screening, treatment phases, and follow-up.

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).

Ovarian cancer is a lethal disease with an estimated 310,000 new cases and 200,000 deaths experienced worldwide in 2020. The purpose of this study is to assess the adverse events and change in disease activity of mirvetuximab soravtansine with carboplatin, or bevacizumab (Bev), or bev alone in participants with ovarian cancer (OC). Participants must have confirmation of folate receptor alpha (FRa) positivity by the Ventana folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) Assay. Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (MIRV) is an investigational drug for the treatment of OC. Participants will be assigned to 1 of 3 substudies and further into groups called treatment arms. In substudy 1, arms A-C, participants will receive 1 of 2 doses of MIRV with Bev, or Bev alone. In substudy 2, arms D and E, participants will receive 1 of 2 doses of MIRV with carboplatin, followed by MIRV alone. In substudy 3, arms F and G, participants will receive one of two doses of MIRV with BEV and carboplatin, followed by MIRV with BEV. Approximately 400 participants will be enrolled in the study at 100 sites around the world. Participants will receive intravenously (IV) infused MIRV with IV infused carboplatin, or IV infused Bev, or IV infused carboplatin and Bev, or IV infused Bev alone. The total study duration will be approximately 40 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, and scans.

The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a concomitant procedure involving the Volt PFA System and Amulet 2 device in patients indicated for both AF ablation and percutaneous LAAO.

This study is designed to compare two different weekly doses of a medicine called Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor given by injection under the skin with the standard doses of the same medicine given through a vein. Adults with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency will take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups, and both the study doctors and participants will know which treatment is being given. The main goals of the study are to understand how the body processes the medicine (pharmacokinetics) and to assess how safe and well tolerated the different weekly doses are.

Multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to demonstrate that neladalkib (NVL-655) is superior to alectinib in prolonging progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with treatment-naïve, Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) positive, advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if zilovertamab vedotin with standard treatment can help people live longer without the cancer growing or spreading than people who receive standard treatment alone.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bomedemstat compared with hydroxyurea in cytoreductive therapy naïve essential thrombocythemia (ET) participants for whom cytoreductive therapy is indicated. Its primary objective is to compare bomedemstat to hydroxyurea with respect to durable clinicohematologic response (DCHR). The primary hypothesis is that bomedemstat is superior to hydroxyurea with respect to DCHR.

Most patients who receive radiation therapy for head and neck cancer develop painful sores in the mouth called oral mucositis. For many of them, these sores are severe and result in debilitating pain. The sores usually start in the third week of radiation and last aboutfive weeks, often continuing for two weeks after treatment ends. Current pain treatments, for instance lidocaine solution, only give short-lasting pain relief. BupiZenge is a lozenge that dissolves slowly in the mouth and contains bupivacaine. Bupivacaine is a long-acting pain-relieving medicine and has been safely used for many years for both children and adults, and its safety profile is well understood. The BupiZenge lozenge is designed to give longer and more reliable pain relief for patients with mucositis in their mouth. This study will check if BupiZenge works better to reduce pain than lidocaine, and if better pain control improves quality of life and reduces the need for strong pain medicines like opioids. The main goal is to see how much mouth pain decreases after taking BupiZenge compared to lidocaine. This is measured by asking the patients to rate their pain score on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). This is done at different time-points, from before the dose until three hours after dose on the last day of radiotherapy. The study will include 150 adults, both women and men, aged 18 to 80 years, who have head and neck cancer and are scheduled to receive radiotherapy, with or without chemotherapy. These patients will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups. The first is BupiZenge, which is a lozenge containing bupivacaine, which dissolves slowly in the mouth. The second is lidocaine, which is a liquid solution for use in the mouth that you gurgle or swish around in the mouth. The study begins with a combined screening and run-in period that can last up to five weeks. During radiotherapy, patients record their mouth pain each day using a number scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). If the pain score is at least 4 (moderate pain) and they have developed mucositis in the mouth within 5 weeks, patients are randomly assigned to receive either BupiZenge or Lidocaine. Treatment continues at least until radiotherapy is completed. If the patient has pain and mouth sores, and the treatment is working well, it may continue after radiotherapy ends, but only until the sores heal or for a maximum of six weeks in total, whichever occurs first. After treatment ends, there is a 30-day follow-up period.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zilebesiran versus placebo reduces the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, or heart failure (HF) events. This is an event-driven study that will continue until the targeted number of positively adjudicated primary endpoint clinical outcome events (COEs) have been reached.

This is an open-label, multicenter, first-in-human dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BGB-58067 alone, in combination with BG-89894 (discontinued), and in combination with standard of care therapy in participants with advanced solid tumors and with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) deficiency.

The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tulisokibart in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Study 1's primary hypotheses are that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or per stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 52 (US/FDA and EU/EMA), and that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or per stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 12 (US/FDA and EU/EMA). Study 2's primary hypothesis is that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 12 (US/FDA and EU/EMA).

This study aims to compare the efficacy of vericiguat versus placebo on change in n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) from baseline to Week 16 of the Base Period. The primary hypothesis is that vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing NT-proBNP at Week 16 of the Base Period.

This study is designed as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan (LNP023) in idiopathic immune complex mediated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.

The goal of this study is to evaluate intismeran autogene plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab for the adjuvant treatment of margin negative, completely resected Stage II, IIIA, IIIB (with nodal involvement \[N2\]) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary hypothesis is that intismeran autogene plus pembrolizumab is superior to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed by the investigator.

This study is being done to look at the efficacy and safety of NNC0487-0111 in participants with excess body weight and obstructive sleep apnoea not treated with positive airway pressure lose weight and improve sleep apnoea. 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.

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a cancer of the blood's plasma cells ( blood cell). The cancer is typically found in the bones and bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside of the bones) and can cause bone pain, fractures, infections, weaker bones, and kidney failure. Treatments are available, but MM can come back (relapsed) or may not get better (refractory) with treatment. This is a study to determine adverse events and change in disease symptoms of etentamig (ABBV-383) in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Etentamig (ABBV-383) is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R Multiple Myeloma (MM). This study is broken into 4 Arms; Arm A (Parts 1 and 2), Arm B and Arms C \& D. Arm A includes 2 parts: step-up dose optimization (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2). In Part 1, different level of step-up doses are tested followed by the target dose of etentamig (ABBV-383). In Part 2, the step-up dose identified in Part 1 (Dose A) will be used followed by the target dose A of etentamig (ABBV-383). In Arm B a flat dose of etentamig (ABBV-383) will be tested. In Arms C \& D, the step-up dose identified in Arm A will be used followed by the target dose of etentamig (ABBV-383) to investigate outpatient administration of etentamig (ABBV-383). Around 210 adult participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma will be enrolled at approximately 50 sites across the world. Participants will receive etentamig (ABBV-383) as an infusion into the vein in 28 day cycles for approximately 3 years. 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. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and questionnaires.
