We are doing this study to learn more about how effective, safe and tolerable an experimental drug called balcinrenone is when used in combination with dapagliflozin for treating patients with heart failure and impaired kidney function and also to better understand the studied disease and associated health problems. Dapagliflozin is an approved drug to treat patients with heart failure, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
This study is enrolling patients diagnosed with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II and III Heart Failure (HF). The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of the study device in helping to reduce Heart Failure Hospitalizations (HFH). The study is divided into 3 time periods: a screening period, implant/treatment period, and a follow-up period.
The study involves implanting a Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor during a right-heart catheterization, after which, you will be randomized into the treatment group (your study doctor will use the data from your daily weight, blood pressure, heart rate measurements, and your daily sensor readings to treat your heart failure) or the active control group (your study doctor will only use the data from your daily weight, blood pressure, and heart rate measurements to treat your heart failure). You will have a 66% (2 in 3) chance of being in the treatment group and a 33% (1 in 3) chance of being in the active control group. Randomization is much like a like drawing straws where you have a 66/33 chance of being assigned to the treatment group or the active control group.
After you have been implanted for 6 months, you and your study doctor will be "unblinded" (able to see) the daily measurements from the Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor System. Follow-up visits will occur at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months, then annually up to 5 years.
Risks include complications from the implant procedure (bleeding, infection, damage to blood vessels, allergic reactions), risks from contrast dye, anesthesia, or medications (e.g., bleeding from blood thinners), and potential unknown device-related risks.
The purpose of the study is to learn more about an experimental drug called ORC-13661 that may be helpful in treating hearing loss due to antibiotic use. The study is researching whether the drug is safe and tolerable, and trying to find out whether the drug may be able to mitigate or prevent hearing loss in patients being treated with intravenous (IV) amikacin. Participation in the study will consist of up to 10 visits over up to 129 days. The Day 1 visit (following the screening visit) will last up to 8 hours, while other visits will last up to 5 hours Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ORC-13661at a higher dose or a lower dose or a placebo (a pill that looks the same as the study drug but has no real medicine in it), for up to 90 days to be taken along with IV amikacin. Participants will be asked to have a number of tests and procedures, which include questionnaires about family, medical, and hearing history, physical and hearing examination, and assessments of hearing.
This study is a double‑blind, placebo‑controlled research study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a skin patch treatment for peanut allergy in children ages 1 to 3. The patch delivers a very small amount of peanut protein through the skin and is designed to help the immune system become less sensitive to peanuts over time.
Participation in the study will last approximately 34 weeks. Participation is voluntary, and participants may withdraw at any time.
After years of research into bronchiectasis, the AIRTIVITY® Study is looking to see if an investigational medicine – designed to target the harmful inflammation that contributes to bronchiectasis – can help improve the lives of people living with the condition. The AIRTIVITY® Study was designed with input from bronchiectasis patient community representatives. Participants take part in this study for up to 1 year and 8 months. During this time, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the investigational medicine (67% chance) or a placebo (33% chance). The study medicine will be provided as tablets to be taken once daily at home.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the drug AZD0292, including how safe it is, how long it stays in the blood, and if it may help in reducing the number of exacerbations in people with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in their lungs. These patients have more frequent lung exacerbations and reduced quality of life. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacteria that can make the symptoms of bronchiectasis worse. The study drug (AZD0292) works by attaching to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, thereby reducing its effects on the lungs and improving symptoms.
This study aims not only to test AZD0292 but is also being done to better understand bronchiectasis disease and its associated health problems.
Study drug (AZD0292) or placebo, will be given to participants as an intravenous (IV) infusion. The study is double-blinded.
About 435 participants with bronchiectasis 12 years of age and older, weighing at least 35kg will take part in this study. This study will be conducted globally in approximately 25 countries.
