Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study is testing an investigational drug called Amivantamab. "Investigational" means that is not been approved by United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). There will be no randomization in this study. Participants will be assigned to treatment upon enrollment based on disease treatment status. The primary purpose of this study is to understand how well the study treatment works and the safety of the combination of Amivantamab and Lazertinib in participants who have NSCLC with a specific eGFR mutation. Amivantamab can be given under the skin (subcutaneous) or by infusion (IV). Participants can be in the study for up to 36 months depending on how the participants disease responds to treatment.

Characterizing dyadic communication challenges and support needs in young adults caring for a parent with metastatic cancer

Keywords
Cancer, Cancer/Breast, Cancer/Lung
Summary

Half of cancer caregivers in the US are young adults (YA) (age 18-35) caring for a parent with advanced cancer. This presents communication and quality of life challenges for both the young adult child caregiver and parent with cancer; however, this dyad (e.g., two people together) has not been well studied. We will conduct interviews with young adult child caregivers and parents with cancer to learn more about communication challenges and support needs in this dyad. Dyad members will also complete self-report measures asking about mood, coping, communication and quality of life. Findings will inform the development of an intervention to improve dyadic communication and quality of life.

An Interventional Study to Evaluate Treating to a Target of Transmural Healing in Patients with Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease (VECTORS)

Keywords
Crohn's Disease
Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine the best treatment goals for patients with active CD. Researchers are investigating how treating and monitoring CD to meet specific treatment goals will keep your disease under control (remission) and decrease complications such as hospitalizations and surgeries. Group 1 treatment goals include IUS response (if the drug is improving your CD) and IUS assessed transmural healing (healing of all bowel layers), clinical remission (normalization of CD symptoms), and biomarker remission (improvement in stool and blood tests that show inflammation). Group 2 treatment goals include clinical remission and biomarker remission. Comparing the treatment goals in these groups may inform doctors how best to manage CD in the future. Approximately 304 people will be enrolled in this study. This research study will involve receiving 300 mg of vedolizumab as an intravenous (IV) infusion into your arm at Weeks 0, 2, 6, 10, and 14, then every 4 or 8 weeks thereafter.

Summary

This study will see if the experimental medicine MTX-463 can slow or stop idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) from worsening in people at least 40 years of age or older. Participants will receive either MTX-463 or a placebo (which contains no active drug) through an intravenous infusion once every 4 weeks, for a total of 6 infusions. Overall, participants will attend a total of 9 visits over the course of approximately 32 weeks, or roughly 8 months.

A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Study Assessing Olpasiran Use to Prevent First Major Cardiovascular Events in Participants with Elevated Lipoprotein(a)

List of Studies

Keywords
Drug Studies, Heart
Summary

This study is enrolling participants with risk factors for heart or blood vessel events (e.g. heart attack, stroke, etc) who also have an elevated lipoprotein a (Lp(a)), which is a sticky particle in the blood that carries cholesterol. The first part of the study involves testing the Lp(a) level and if elevated then participants will be invited to be a part of a study testing the investigational medication olpasiran. Investigational means it has not been approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. The study medication is given as a shot just under the skin every 3 months. This study is a randomized study meaning participants are assigned by chance to either receive olpasiran or placebo. Placebo looks like the real medication but has no active ingredients. Participants have a 50:50 chance of being assigned to either group but will not know which group they are in. Study related procedures include physical exams, blood work, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG - a tracing of the heart's electrical activity) and study medication administration. This study is expected to last about three and a half to five and a half years and involve between 16 to 28 visits.

Summary

Ritlecitinib has been approved for treating severe alopecia areata (AA) in adults and adolescents aged 12 and older in the US, EU, and other countries, based on a positive benefit/risk assessment. However, there are no approved treatments for AA in children aged 6 to under 12. Study B7981027 is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ritlecitinib in this younger group. This study is part of the EU Pediatric Investigation Plan (PIP) and fulfills a post-marketing requirement in the US.
