The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy, safety and tolerability of barzolvolimab in adult participants with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled by non-sedating second generation H1-antihistamines in comparison to placebo. Read Less

This is an open-label, phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (what the body does to the drug), pharmacodynamic (what the drug does to the body), and antitumor activity of CGT4859 in adult participants with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) or other advanced solid tumors with FGFR2 and/or FGFR3 genetic alternations.

The purpose of this extension study is to assess the safety and tolerability of secukinumab when administered long-term in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rapcabtagene autoleucel (administered once following lymphodepletion) versus Standard of Care (SOC) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with active, refractory lupus nephritis (LN). Read Less

This Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study, followed by an OLE, is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamic effects of BIIB122 in participants with LRRK2-PD. LRRK2-PD is defined as Parkinson's Disease (PD) in individuals who are heterozygous or homozygous carriers of a pathogenic LRRK2 variant that increases LRRK2 kinase activity. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to establish the recommended doses and further evaluate the safety and preliminary antitumor activity of M3554 in participants with soft tissue sarcoma (STS) and glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype. Study details include: Study Duration per participant: Approximately 4 months Read Less

People with HIV experience earlier impairments in physical function compared to people in the general population. They also exhibit an earlier presentation and more rapid development of frailty, a multisystemic syndrome of aging characterized by reduced activity, fatigue, slowness, weakness, and weight loss. While exercise can improve physical function in people with HIV, it is less effective in doing so than in the general population and is difficult to sustain in the long-term. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the medication tesamorelin will improve physical function and muscle health in adults with HIV when combined with exercise. Tesamorelin is a growth hormone-releasing hormone analogue that is FDA-approved to treat abdominal fat accumulation in people with HIV. While tesamorelin has also been shown to increase muscle mass and improve measures of muscle health, its effects on physical performance and muscle strength have not yet been evaluated. During a 24-week intervention phase, half of participants will be randomly assigned to receive tesamorelin and half of participants will be randomly assigned to receive placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug). All participants also will engage in a home-based exercise intervention supervised by an exercise coach. During a subsequent 24-week extension phase, individuals will be monitored off study drug and supervised exercise, and be encouraged to continue to exercise independently. The investigators will investigate effects of tesamorelin on physical function, muscle mass and quality, quality of life, and exercise adherence and self-efficacy. They also will evaluate whether effects of tesamorelin are maintained following treatment cessation. This study may identify an important strategy to improve how individuals aging with HIV function and feel with potential applications to other patient populations. Read Less

This Phase III, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, treat-through study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Afimkibart (RO7790121) compared with placebo in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Read Less

First in human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of BBO-10203, a PI3Kα:RAS breaker, alone and in combination with other anti-cancer agents in patients with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

This is a study of retatrutide in participants with obesity. The main purpose is to learn more about how retatrutide maintains body weight loss. The study will have two treatment phases: an 80 week lead-in phase in which all participants will take retatrutide dose 1 and a 36 week randomized, double-blinded phase in which participants will either take retatrutide dose 1, retatrutide dose 2, or switch to placebo. Participation in the study will last around 125 weeks. Read Less

Purpose: About 6.4% of the U.S. population suffers from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Trauma-focused psychotherapies are generally effective in PTSD, but responses vary greatly across individuals and PTSD subpopulations. Neurobiological factors impacted by life experiences, stress, and genetics can affect treatment responses. These factors can alter brain capacities needed to reprocess traumatic memories prevent them from triggering intensely distressing, disruptive, out-of-place responses. For example, during psychotherapy for PTSD, trauma memory activation engages two competing brain processes that affect recovery: "extinction" versus "reconsolidation" of trauma-related emotional, physiological, and behavioral responses. This study tests whether a single intravenous (IV) dose of allopregnanolone (Allo) compared to placebo (which is non-active): promotes consolidation of extinction learning (sub-study 1) or blocks reconsolidation of physiological responses triggered by aversive memories (sub-study 2). The study also tests whether Allo compared to placebo affects retention of non-aversive memories. Read Less
