IRI-EXPLORE: A Study to Test Whether BI 765845 Helps People Who Have Had a Heart Attack
Recruiting
This study is open to adults aged 18 and over who have just had a heart attack. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 765845 helps people who have had a heart attack. The investigators also want to test how well different doses of BI 765845 work and how they are tolerated by people who have had a heart attack. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either BI 765845 or placebo. Placebo treatments look like BI 765845 treatments but do not contain any medicin... Read More

Molecular Epidemiology of Biliary Tree Cancers
Recruiting
This study is to learn if certain risk factors (environmental, viral, behavioral, medical, and dietary), tumor markers, and genetic changes can predict the development and outcome of biliary tree cancers. Establishing biomarkers models from patients may help doctors to further understand how biliary tree cancer is affected by different treatments, and why some people's cancer responds differently than others.
