Study to Evaluate Tulisokibart for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (MK-7240-012)
Recruiting
This is a phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the safety and efficacy of tulisokibart in participants with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa. The primary hypothesis is that at least 1 dose of tulisokibart is superior to placebo with respect to the proportion of participants achieving a 50% reduction in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR50) at Week 16 (ie, at end of double-blind treatment).

A Study to Assess Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity of Intravenously (IV) Infused ABBV-324 in Adult Participants With Hepatocellular Cancer (HCC) or Squamous-Cell Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (LUSC)
Recruiting
HCC is a common cancer worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related death. Lung cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in the world, and the leading cause of cancer deaths. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and change in disease activity when ABBV-324 is given to adult participants to treat hepatocellular cancer (HCC) or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer (LUSC). ABBV-324 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HCC and LUSC. Study doc... Read More

Odronextamab for the Treatment of Relapsed and Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Before and After Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Therapy
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests how well odronextamab works before and after standard of care (SOC) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). CAR-T cell therapy is the SOC treatment most patients receive when other treatments have failed. CAR-T cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a ty... Read More

A Clinical Study of Intismeran Autogene (V940) and BCG in People With Bladder Cancer (V940-011/INTerpath-011)
Recruiting
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC). NMIBC is cancer in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder but has not spread to the bladder muscle or outside of the bladder. High-risk means NMIBC may have a high chance of getting worse or coming back after treatment. HR NMIBC can also include carcinoma in situ (CIS). CIS is bladder cancer that appears flat and is only in the inner layer (surface) of the bladder. CIS is n... Read More

A Phase 1/2A, Randomized Study of a T Follicular Helper (TFH)-Targeting Genetic Vaccine Strategy Designed to Induce Broad, Durable Immune Responses
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to test two investigational COVID-19 booster vaccines, called CoTend-s3BXBB and CoTend-BXBB, in healthy volunteers ages 40-64. The CoTend-s3BXBB vaccine includes a component called "s3", which was designed to improve the body's response to the vaccine. CoTend-BXBB is the same vaccine without s3. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1) Is the investigational vaccine safe? 2) Does "s3" lead to bigger, broader, and longer-lasting responses to the vacc... Read More

A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MK-1167 in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease Dementia (MK-1167-008)
Recruiting
Researchers want to learn if giving MK-1167 (the study medicine) along with acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) therapy can improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD dementia), such as memory and mental activity. AD dementia is the most common type of dementia. AChEI therapy is the standard treatment for AD dementia. The goals of this study are to learn: * If at least one dose level (amount) of MK-1167 works to improve a person's memory and thinking compared to a placebo * About... Read More
