Endometriosis is a painful disorder of the uterus affecting 6-10% of women of childbearing age. Endometriosis affects daily activities, social relationships, sexuality and sexual activity, and mental health. This study will evaluate how well elagolix in combination with combined oral contraceptives (COC) works within the body and/or how safe it is compared to placebo (does not contain treatment drug). This study will assess the dysmenorrhea (painful periods) response in participants with endometriosis and associated pain. Elagolix is an approved drug for the management of moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis. Participants are randomly put in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Adult female participants who still have periods with a diagnosis of endometriosis will be enrolled. Around 800 participants will be enrolled in the study at multiple sites in the United States, including Puerto Rico. Participants will receive oral elagolix or placebo tablets in combination with combined oral contraceptive (COC) or placebo capsules for 3 months. All the participants will receive elagolix tablets in combination with COC tablets from Month 4 through Month 18. There will be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to see if the study medication, daratumumab, is safe to treat individuals with Anti-Phospholipid Syndrome (APS). Three daratumumab dosing cohorts are planned with up to six participants in each dosing cohort with the potential to enroll an additional 4 subjects in the highest safe dose (HSD) cohort, for a total of up to 22 participants. The dosing cohorts are: 4 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg, and 16 mg/kg. Each cohort will receive intravenous (IV) administration of daratumumab according to the following schedule, for a total of 8 doses. The primary objective is to determine the safety of daratumumab in APS defined as Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) occurring during the dose escalation phase. Read Less

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to treat patients with small to mid-sized abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), maximum diameter of 3.5 cm to 5.0 cm, using a locally delivered, single-dose endovascular treatment. The main question the study aims to answer is to demonstrate efficacy of the product for stabilization of these small to mid-sized AAA.The study will compare the treatment group to the typical standard of care for these patients, surveillance. All subjects will be followed at designated intervals at 30/60 days, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months with continued follow-up annually for up to 5 years. Read Less

This is a Phase III, 2-arm, randomised, open-label, multicentre, global study assessing the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Dato-DXd plus durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab with or without chemotherapy compared with neoadjuvant pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated TNBC or hormone receptor-low/HER2-negative breast cancer.

This is an open-label phase I study of fostamatinib in combination with ruxolitinib for the treatment of chronic GvHD with a suboptimal response to corticosteroids. The primary objective is to identify a minimum safe and biologically effective dose of fostamatinib when combined with standard of care ruxolitinib for the treatment of steroid refractory and steroid dependent cGVHD. The secondary objective is to estimate the efficacy of the combination of ruxolitinib and fostamatinib for the treatment of steroid refractory and steroid dependent cGVHD. The target enrollment is 24-30 subjects. The study will begin with an initial dose escalation cohort employing a modified 3+3 design to investigate up to three doses of fostamatinib. Using safety, efficacy, pharmacodynamic (PD), and pharmacokinetic data (PK), an interim assessment will be performed to determine two candidate doses of the biologically optimal dose to investigate further. A safety expansion cohort will be opened to backfill these two candidate doses up to a total 12 patients per dose, including those in the dose escalation cohort who received the candidate doses. Patients will then be randomized to one of these two candidate doses in the expansion. If there is an imbalance in the two expansion cohorts, the remaining patient slots after 1:1 randomization will be sequentially backfilled to a total of 12 patients per cohort. A final analysis of safety, efficacy, and PK/PD data in patients who received the two candidate doses will be conducted to determine a minimum safety and biologically effective dose, which will be the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). The primary hypothesis is that Fostamatinib combined with ruxolitinib is a safe therapy for and has synergistic activity in cGvHD. The recommended phase II dose will be determined by the study investigators in collaboration with the sponsors. The decision to select the recommended phase II dose will occur only after all patients in the part 1 have completed at least 28 days of therapy. The decision will be based on the valuation of all relevant, available data, and not solely on dose-limiting toxicities. Read Less

Coronaviruses (CoVs) have caused the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak, the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) outbreak, and now the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. Although there are several approved or authorized vaccines for SARS-CoV-2, there are currently no vaccines approved to prevent diseases caused by multiple different coronaviruses. Two countermeasures with promise for controlling coronavirus outbreaks are recombinant neutralizing antibodies and vaccines directed against the virus. Between these two countermeasures, the ultimate solution to control the current COVID-19 pandemic and future CoV outbreaks is a pancoronavirus vaccine. In particular, a vaccine that can induce broader protection and can prevent severe disease caused by current SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern would help mitigate significant morbidity and mortality following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Additionally, an optimal pancoronavirus vaccine would prevent severe disease from other SARS-related viruses in the genus of coronaviruses-betacoronavirus-that are responsible for past outbreaks or could cause the next major outbreak in humans. Such a broadly active coronavirus vaccine would be an impactful first step towards preventing all life-threatening coronavirus human disease. The proposed vaccine immunogen (Cov-RBD-scNP-001) is composed of an engineered receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 WA-1 covalently linked in vitro to the surface of a Helicobacter pylori ferritin protein nanoparticle (RBD-scNP). The RBD has been engineered at two sites to improve its expression. The protein nanoparticle is composed of 24 individual ferritin subunits each of which can have a SARS-CoV-2 WA-1 RBD attached to it via a nine amino acid linker. The protein nanoparticle will be delivered with 3M-052-AF adjuvant - a TLR 7/8 agonist. Read Less
