This study is open to adults who have kidney disease that is not caused by diabetes. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called avenciguat (BI 685509) improves kidney function. Three different doses of avenciguat are tested in this study. Participants get either one of the three doses of avenciguat or placebo. It is decided by chance who gets which avenciguat dose and who gets placebo. Participants take avenciguat or placebo as tablets 3 times a day. Placebo tablets look like avenciguat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants continue taking their usual medicine for kidney disease throughout the study. Participants are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 11 times. Where possible, about 6 of the 11 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Kidney function is assessed based on the analysis of urine samples, which participants collect at home. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different doses of avenciguat and placebo. During the study, the doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of darolutamide in combination with standard androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer.

The primary purpose of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and schedule assessed to be safe for EMB-06 and to characterize the safety and tolerability of EMB-06 at the RP2Ds. Pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, and the anti-multiple myeloma activity of EMB-06 will also be assessed.

The DiamondTemp™ Global Registry is a prospective, global, multi-center, observational post-market registry.

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effects of a physiotherapist-delivered dietary weight loss program on clinical outcomes among people with knee osteoarthritis (OA) who have overweight or obesity. The primary hypothesis is that a physiotherapist-delivered dietary weight loss plus exercise program will be more effective in achieving weight loss than a physiotherapist-delivered exercise program alone. Approximately 6-9 physiotherapists in Melbourne, Australia will be recruited and trained in weight management for OA patients, as well as trained in how to deliver the specific study interventions. The same therapists will deliver the intervention in both arms of the trial. 88 participants with knee OA will be recruited from the community and randomized into one of the two arms a) diet plus exercise intervention or b) exercise intervention alone. Participants in both groups will be asked to attend 6 consultations with the physiotherapist over 6 months. Questionnaire and laboratory-based outcome measures will be completed by participants at baseline and at the end of the 6 month intervention period. A biostatistician will analyse blinded, de-identified data.

This is an interventional study to assess the safety, PK, and efficacy of HST5040 in 12 subjects - 6 with Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) and 6 with Propionic Acidemia (PA). The study consists of 3 parts: * Part A: Open-label, within-subject, dose escalation study in PA and MMA subjects = 2 years old to identify a safe and pharmacologically active (optimal) dose of HST5040 for use in Part B. Subjects will continue in a Part A open-label extension until all subjects complete Part A and the optimal dose of HST5040 is identified for use in Part B. * Part B: 6-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-period crossover in the same subjects from Part A to evaluate safety and efficacy of the optimal dose of HST5040 in addition to standard of care (SoC). * Part C: open-label long-term extension study in PA and MMA subjects = 2 years old (N = approximately 12, 6 each) to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the optimal dose of HST5040. This study will determine whether HST5040 can improve levels of disease-associated toxins that accumulate in patients with PA and MMA.

This is a two-part (Phase 2/Phase 3) study of frespaciguat, an inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The first part (Phase 2) will assess three different doses of frespaciguat compared to placebo in a base period of 12 weeks, followed by comparison of three different doses of frespaciguat during an optional 40 month extension period. The treatment dose with the best efficacy and safety profile in the phase 2 cohort base period will be selected for use in the second part (Phase 3) of the study. The primary hypothesis of Phase 2 is that at least one frespaciguat dose is superior to placebo in reducing pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) from baseline at week 12. The purpose of the second part (Phase 3) of the study is to confirm the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of frespaciguat at the selected dose compared to placebo during a 12 week base period followed by an extension period of up to 5 years. The primary hypothesis of Phase 3 is that frespaciguat is superior to placebo in increasing 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline at week 12. Due to sponsor's decision this phase/part was not conducted.

This study is designed as an open-label, single arm, proof of concept study in order to determine the appropriate emapalumab dosing regimen neutralizing IFN? in patients at risk of GF. Patients presenting CXCL9 levels above a defined threshold and other clinical criteria will be eligible to receive emapalumab. Both children and adults, with malignant and non-malignant underlying diseases, receiving allo-HSCT who are at high risk of GF as defined in the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. The main objective of the study is to determine the appropriate emapalumab dose regimen neutralizing interferon gamma (IFN?) activity to pre-empt graft failure post allo-HSCT in a population with various underlying diseases and at high risk of graft failure (GF). Maximum 3 cohorts are foreseen to determine the appropriate dose regimen to pre-emptively treat patients at risk of primary GF. Emapalumab will be administered by IV infusion and treatment will last up to 56 days (15 infusions) or until evidence of engraftment. The study is expected to last approximately 3 years from screening to the last follow-up phone call for each patient.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the ability of a repeated high-frequency site-based computerized cognitive assessment to evaluate the potential treatment effects of donepezil (MK-0000) compared with placebo among participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The primary study hypothesis is that the average percentage of correct responses on one card learning (OCL) task will be =2 percentage points in participants receiving donepezil compared with participants receiving placebo.

The purpose of this study is to first, in Part A, assess the safety, tolerability and drug levels of Bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG) in combination with nivolumab and then, in Part B, to estimate the preliminary efficacy in children, adolescents and young adults with recurrent or treatment-resistant cancer.
