Antimicrobial Therapy for Difficult-to-treat Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
Infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates with acquired resistances to all first-line antipseudomonal beta-lactams and fluoroquinolones (difficult-to-treat isolates - DTR), pose serious therapeutical challenges, especially in critically ill and/or immunocompromised patients. Certain new beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations (BL/BLI (beta lactamine/ beta lactamase inhibitor) - i.e., ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, imipenem-relebactam, others) and cefiderocol have shown promising results for the treatment of infections due to DTR P. aeruginosa. However, multicenter data on their real-life utilization in this indication are still scarce. The ADDICT study is a prospective, multicenter cohort study including unselected patients with DTR P. aeruginosa infection requiring definite intravenous antimicrobial therapy. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of available options (new BL/BLI, cefiderocol or older agents such as aminoglycosides and colistin) in this population. Secondary objectives are to compare the clinical and microbiological efficacy of available options in infections due to DTR P. aeruginosa with in vitro susceptibility to more than one last-resort drug, to compare the incidence of non-ecological adverse events observed with these drugs, to assess the incidence of resistance emergence under therapy and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of resistance emergence, to assess the benefits and risks of combination therapy in this indication, to compare the acquisition rates of multidrug-resistant bacteria other than DTR P. aeruginosa, and Clostridioides difficile infection, to compare Day-28 and in-hospital all-cause mortality rates. Patients will be recruited in 60 hospital centers contributing to four French networks of research in infectious diseases and critical care (CRICS-TRIGGERSEP, ReaRezo, OutcomeRéa, RENARCI - PROMISE metanetwork). Clinical variables will be collected through an electronic case-report form. DTR P. aeruginosa isolates will be sent to the National Reference Center of Antimicrobial Resistance in P. aeruginosa for centralized analyses (extended antimicrobial susceptibility testing, MLST, whole-genome sequencing of successive isolates if resistance emergence under therapy).

A Phase III Renal Outcomes and Cardiovascular Mortality Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Baxdrostat in Combination With Dapagliflozin in Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease and High Blood Pressure
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of baxdrostat in combination with dapagliflozin, compared with placebo and dapagliflozin, in reducing the risk of the composite of > 50% decline in eGFR, kidney failure, or CV death, in individuals with CKD and HTN. This study consists of a 4-week dapagliflozin Run-in Period for participants untreated with SGLT2i at screening, and a double-blinded period where participants will receive either baxdrostat/dapagliflozin or placebo/dapagliflozin. Site visits will take place at 2-, 4-, 8-, 16-, 34, and 52-weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months. The study closure procedures will be initiated when the predetermined number of primary endpoint events is predicted to have occurred ie, the PACD. All randomised participants including any participants who have prematurely discontinued study intervention will be scheduled for a SCV within a few weeks of the PACD. This period can be extended by the Sponsor. In case of premature discontinuation of blinded study intervention, participants will continue in the study and receive dapagliflozin 10 mg, unless the participant meets dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria. If study intervention is temporarily or permanently discontinued, the participant should remain in the study, and it is important that the scheduled study visits (including the PTDV for participants with permanent discontinuation of study intervention) and data collection continue according to the study protocol until the SCV.

Study of Eftilagimod Alfa (Efti) in Combination With Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy Versus Placebo in Combination With Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy in Participants With Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (TACTI-004)
TACTI-004 is a double-blinded, randomized phase 3 trial in patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving eftilagimod alfa (major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II agonist) in combination with pembrolizumab (programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antagonist) and chemotherapy. The proposed clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy and to demonstrate the superiority of efti combined with standard of care (SoC, pembrolizumab and histology-based chemotherapy) compared to placebo combined with SoC in programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) unselected population as assessed by: - Overall survival [OS] - Progression-free survival [PFS] per RECIST 1.1 The trial is planned to be conducted in countries in Asia, Australia, Europe and North and South America in approximately 175 experienced clinical sites.

A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Petosemtamab Plus Pembrolizumab vs Pembrolizumab in First-line Treatment of Head and Neck Cancer (LiGeR - HN1)
This is a Phase 3 randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of petosemtamab plus pembrolizumab vs pembrolizumab in first-line treatment of recurrent or metastatic PD-L1+ HNSCC. HNSCC patients should not have had previous systemic therapy administered in the incurable recurrent or metastatic setting, although previous systemic therapy as part of multimodal treatment for locally advanced disease is allowed if PD was ≥6 months after the last platinum-containing therapy dose. Previous treatments with anti PD-(L)1 or anti-EGFR therapies are not allowed. In the case of cetuximab, patients who have received cetuximab with radiotherapy as a local treatment and PD was >1 year after the last dose of cetuximab are eligible.

A Study of the Gut Microbiome in Hormone Receptor-positive HER2-negative Breast Cancer Treated With CDK4/6 Inhibitors
The combination of endocrine therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor is the preferred treatment option in advanced hormone-receptor positive (HR+) and HER2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer (BC). This combination (with abemaciclib or ribociclib) is now also considered standard of care for early HR+ HER2- BC deemed at high risk of relapse. Biomarkers predicting response to CDK4/6 inhibition remain largely unknown. Of note, research primarily focused on acquired genomic and transcriptomic tumor cell alterations, requiring invasive biopsies of tumor content. Thus, enlarging the scope of biomarkers of response to CDK4/6 inhibition to more easily accessible biological samples and to areas other than tumoral gene pathway alterations is urgently required. CDK4/6 inhibitors have been demonstrated to enhance the activity of cytotoxic T cells in BC, but without deep knowledge of mechanisms and implications. Studies of multiple cancer types have demonstrated the impact of the gut microbiome on the adaptive anti-cancer immunity. Ciclibiome is a prospective study of BC patients starting treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor (both in the advanced and adjuvant setting), aiming to study the interplay between the gut microbiome (its composition and evolution during treatment), circulating immune, metabolic and cytokine biomarkers (before and during treatment), and response outcomes to the CDK4/6 inhibitor. This study will explore the existence of microbial, immune and metabolic biomarkers correlated with the clinical outcomes to CDK4/6 inhibition in BC. The aim is to find an easily available biomarker, assessable by a stool or blood sample examination. This study will generate new hypotheses, that ultimately could give rise to potential combination strategies to test in a population considered of poor prognosis.
