AltaValve Pivotal Trial

A Study of Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Versus Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Plus Other Cancer Treatments for Adult Patients With Operable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Dato-DXd With or Without Osimertinib Compared With Platinum Based Doublet Chemotherapy in Participants With EGFR-Mutated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This is a Phase III, open-label, 3-arm, multicenter study assessing the effects of Dato-DXd in combination with osimertinib or Dato-DXd monotherapy versus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in participants with epidermal growth factor receptor gene mutation (EGFRm) locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has progressed on prior osimertinib treatment. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of the following intervention groups: 1. Dato-DXd + osimertinib combination therapy 2. Dato-DXd monotherapy 3. Platinum-based doublet chemotherapy Participants will receive study intervention until Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) -defined radiological progression by the investigator, unacceptable toxicity, or other discontinuation criterion is met. After study intervention discontinuation, all participants will undergo an end of treatment (EoT) visit within 35 days of discontinuation and will be followed up for safety assessments 28 (+ 7) days after their last dose of study intervention.

A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Aficamten in Pediatric Patients With Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (oHCM).

The overall objective of the trial is to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of administration of aficamten in adolescents (12 to < 18 years old) and children (6 to < 12 years old) with symptomatic oHCM. Adolescents and children will be studied in a staged approach involving established favorable pharmacodynamic and safety profiles of aficamten in adolescents followed by further pharmacokinetic modeling to inform the dosing regimen in children. Only the 12 to <18 years old cohort is currently open for enrollment. The trial will consist of 3 periods: 1. Period 1 is the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period that will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of aficamten in pediatric participants. Duration: 12 weeks. 2. Period 2 is the open-label extension trial that will assess the long-term safety of aficamten in pediatric participants, and further assess efficacy and tolerability. Duration: 52 weeks. 3. Period 3 is the long-term extension trial that will assess the long-term safety of aficamten in pediatric participants, and further assess efficacy and tolerability. Duration: 144 weeks.

Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest forms of cancer. It often goes undetected until it is at an advanced stage, making it challenging to treat. Currently, only a small percentage of patients are diagnosed early enough for effective treatment. While a blood marker exists, called serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), it is used primarily to track the disease and it is unreliable for early detection. To address this problem, the researchers have developed a new method to analyze circulating vesicles (called exosomes), which contain specific genetic material called microRNAs (miRNAs). In a previous study, by analyzing both the miRNAs that circulate freely in serum and the miRNAs that are inside the exosomes, the researchers have already identified a combination of 13 miRNAs that could accurately detect early-stage PDAC. In this study, the researchers will test this method in a larger international cohort study. This study aims to confirm the effectiveness of this approach in accurately identifying PDAC at its earliest stages.

A Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab With or Without Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (MK- 2870) in Adult Participants With Resectable Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Not Achieving Pathological Complete Response (pCR) (MK-2870-019)

The Effectiveness of Prophylactic Antibiotics for Urethral Bulking

Urethral bulking is a minimally invasive surgical treatment option for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). One commonly reported post-procedural complication is urinary tract infection (UTI). UTI rates are variable where studies have reported rates from as low as 0% to as high as 40%. Along with this variability, the instructional inserts for various bulking agents have inconsistent recommendations for use of prophylactic antibiotics. The American Urologic Association recommends antimicrobial prophylaxis for cystourethroscopy procedures involving minor manipulation. Currently, there are no clear guidelines regarding the utility of prophylactic antibiotics for urethral bulking. The objective of our study is to determine the effectiveness of prophylactic antibiotics in urethral bulking for reducing post procedural UTIs.
