The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate whether administering a probiotic (Infloran®) to infants who received antibiotics in the first 28 days of life can restore or enhance their immune response to routine vaccines. Antibiotic use in the first weeks of life can lower the levels of beneficial gut bacteria, such as bifidobacteria, which play a key role in immune function. As a result, infants treated with antibiotics may produce fewer antibodies after routine vaccinations, leaving them less protected against infections. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does treatment with the probiotic Infloran® improve the geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) of anticapsular antibodies against at least 11 serotypes included in the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV20) in serum samples collected at 6 months of age compared with placebo in infants treated with antibiotics in the neonatal period? * Does treatment with the probiotic Infloran® improve the GMCs for the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV20) at 12 months of age compared with placebo in infants treated with antibiotics in the neonatal period? * Does treatment with the probiotic Infloran® improve the GMCs of other routine childhood vaccines at 6 and 12 months of age compared with placebo in infants treated with antibiotics in the neonatal period? * Does treatment with the probiotic Infloran® increase the proportion of infants achieving seroprotective antibody levels for pneumococcal antigens compared to placebo in infants treated with antibiotics in the neonatal period? * What are the differences in antigen specific T cell responses, flow cytometry, blood transcriptomics, and gut microbiota composition in the probiotic (Infloran®) vs placebo groups in infants treated with antibiotics in the neonatal period? Researchers will compare infants who receive Infloran® (a probiotic containing Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidphilus) with those who receive a placebo (which contains the same excipients as Infloran® but does not contain any bacterial strains). Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to receive either a 14-day course of probiotic Infloran® or a placebo. * Provide blood samples (3-5 mL) at 6 weeks, 6.5 weeks (optional blood-draw for exploratory endpoint), 6 months and 12 months of age. * Provide stool samples at four timepoints: prior to starting the intervention (probiotic/placebo), on day 7, on day 14 after completion of the study supplement, and prior to their first vaccination at 6 weeks of age. * Receive routine vaccinations at 6 weeks, 4 months and 6 months in line with the National Immunisation Program * Complete surveys to collect information regarding probiotic/placebo administration and vaccination related side effects This study aims to recruit 360 infants to assess whether this probiotic treatment following antibiotic exposure improves the immunogenicity of vaccinations. The information from this study will improve our understanding of how probiotic intervention can support optimal immune responses to vaccination in early life. The findings could potentially influence public health strategies, offering a new way to support optimal vaccine responses in antibiotic-treated infants.

Phase 2 Randomized Study of PG-102 vs Placebo and Semaglutide in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

This is a Phase 2b, investigator- and participant-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of SAB 142 in patients with Stage 3 New Onset of Type 1 Diabetes (NOT1D).

Our specific aims are to investigate whether conservative (=30%), intermediate (50%), or liberal (80%) inspired oxygen during and immediately after surgery: Aim 1: Reduces surgical site infections (SSIs or "wound infections") and other healthcare-associated infections (pneumonia and sepsis). Aim 2: Reduces a pooled composite of serious postoperative complications, leading to a faster and more complete recovery after surgery, and thus increases "days alive and at home up to 30 days after surgery" (DAH30). Primary hypothesis: Liberal (80%) oxygen concentration delivered with anesthesia in patients undergoing major surgery reduces the incidence of SSIs after surgery compared to conservative (=30%) or intermediate (50%) oxygen concentration. Secondary hypothesis: Hyperoxia (50-80%) delivered with anesthesia in patients undergoing major surgery increases the incidence of pulmonary and other complications after surgery compared to conservative (=30%) oxygen concentration, resulting in fewer Days At Home (DAH). PROMPT enrolls patients undergoing elective or semi-elective surgery.

Global, Phase 3, randomized, multicenter, open-label study evaluating the efficacy and safety of firmonertinib at a dose level of 240 mg QD compared to investigator's choice of osimertinib (80 mg QD) or afatinib (40 mg QD) in participants who have locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR PACC mutations, and who have not received any prior therapy for advanced disease. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to treatment with firmonertinib or osimertinib or afatinib and will take the assigned dose daily.

This is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 induction study, comprised of 3 sub-studies, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active CD. Study details include: The study duration may be up to 35 weeks with: * Up to 5-week Screening Period. * 12-week Sub-Study 1 (Single Arm Open-Label Feeder Induction) or Sub-Study 2 (Pivotal Induction). * 12-week Sub-Study 3 (Extended Induction for non-responders). * 6 weeks (45 days) follow-up period for participants who do not enroll into the Pivotal Maintenance Study (EFC18327). The treatment duration will be up to 12 weeks in each sub-study. The number of scheduled study visits for participants who continue to the Pivotal Maintenance Study (EFC18327) will be up to 8 (Sub-Study 1 and Sub-Study 2) and up to 15 for participants who enroll in Sub-Study 3.

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ZT003 following subcutaneous administration in healthy adult participants. The study includes both single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) parts.

This study is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1a/1b study of BG-C0902, a fully humanized anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anti-mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) antibody, conjugated via an enzymatically cleavable linker to a topoisomerase 1 (TOPO1) inhibitor payload. The study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BG-C0902 in participants with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in 2 phases: Phase 1a (dose escalation and safety expansion) and Phase 1b (dose expansion).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zilebesiran versus placebo reduces the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, or heart failure (HF) events. This is an event-driven study that will continue until the targeted number of positively adjudicated primary endpoint clinical outcome events (COEs) have been reached.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of 24-weeks of once daily treatment with TPIP versus placebo on exercise capacity in adults with PH-ILD.
