This is a Study to Learn About How the Combination of the Study Medicines Sigvotatug Vedotin Plus Pembrolizumab Works in People With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With High Levels of PD-L1.
Recruiting
The purpose of the study is to compare how the new combination treatment (Sigvotatug Vedotin plus pembrolizumab) works compared to pembrolizumab alone in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with high levels of PD-L1. This is a protein that acts as a kind of "brake" to keep the body's immune responses under control. The study is seeking for participants who: * Are confirmed to have NSCLC (Stage 3 or 4). * Have PD-L1 levels in more than 50% of the cancer cells. All participants in... Read More

A Phase 2 Study of NEU-411 in Companion Diagnostic-Positive Participants With Early Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
The goal of this Phase 2 clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of NEU-411 in men and women aged 40-80 years with early Parkinson's Disease (PD) who have predicted elevations in the activity of the "leucine-rich repeat kinase 2" ("LRRK2" for short) pathway based on their genetic profile. A DNA test will be used to identify the "LRRK2-driven" population with predicted elevation in the LRRK2 pathway. Participants will: • Take NEU-411 or placebo every day for 52 weeks
