The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of cisplatin-ineligible participants with a Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Combined Positive Score (CPS) =10, or in participants ineligible for any platinum-containing chemotherapy regardless of CPS, with advanced/unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). The primary hypotheses for this study are that: 1. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR), and 2. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Overall Survival (OS). Based on recommendation of the external Data Monitoring Committee (eDMC), Amendment 3 (effective: September \[Sep\]-24-2021) was implemented to unblind the study and discontinue lenvatinib and placebo treatment. The eDMC was then disbanded. With Amendment 4 (effective: December-5-2022) second course pembrolizumab will no longer be offered. Any participant receiving second course pembrolizumab treatment prior to initiation of Amendment 4 will be able to complete treatment as planned. Study participation will end after the final administration of pembrolizumab. Participants who either complete 35 administrations of pembrolizumab or discontinue pembrolizumab will discontinue from the study following the safety follow-up visit. AEs and spontaneously reported pregnancies will be reported and followed per protocol. The overall study ends when the last participant completes the last study-related contact or visit, withdraws from the study, or is lost to follow-up.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether postoperative adjuvant therapy with mRNA-4157 and pembrolizumab improves recurrence free survival (RFS) compared to pembrolizumab alone in participants with complete resection of cutaneous melanoma and a high risk of recurrence.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how efficiently the study medication imlifidase reduces the amount of donor specific antibodies (DSA) in comparison with plasma exchange (PE) therapy, in patients who have had an active or chronic active antibody mediated rejection (AMR) after being kidney transplanted. The purpose was also to investigate and compare safety for these two treatments.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis of the scalp.

Phase 3b study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Tildrakizumab in the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Nail Psoriasis

Suvorexant (trade name Belsomra) is an orexin receptor antagonist that has TGA approval for the treatment of insomnia, characterised by difficulties with sleep onset and/or sleep maintenance. It may also have a role in addictions as the orexins play a critical role in drug addiction and reward-related behaviours. Orexins appear to be involved in both alcohol withdrawal and in alcohol seeking triggered by external cues (eg contexts or stressors) through both OX1 and OX2 receptor signalling. Chief investigator, Professor Lawrence was the first to demonstrate a role for endogenous orexin signaling in alcohol-seeking. Alcohol is known to effect the sleep of healthy and alcohol dependent individuals with effects on daytime sleepiness, physiological functions during sleep, and the development of sleep disorders. There are various estimates of the co-occurrence of insomnia and alcohol use disorder ranging from 36-72%. In alcohol dependent individuals sleep is disturbed both while drinking and for months of abstinence and abstinent sleep disturbance is predictive of relapse. This proposal aims to evaluate the use of suvorexant as a safe and effective pharmacotherapy to treat sleep disorders in alcohol dependent patients undergoing acute alcohol withdrawal and thereafter for six months. The study will also examine the effectiveness of suvorexant in reducing craving for alcohol and promoting duration of abstinence. This will be the first double blind controlled trial of suvorexant in the management of the alcohol withdrawal syndrome and maintenance of abstinence post withdrawal.

Severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is a life-threatening and frequent problem experienced by thousands of children each year. Little evidence supports current supportive practices during their critical illness. The overall objective of this study is to identify the best positional and/or ventilation practice that leads to improved patient outcomes in these critically ill children. We hypothesize that children with high moderate-severe PARDS treated with either prone positioning or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) will demonstrate more days off the ventilator when compared to children treated with supine positioning or conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV).

This is a study to demonstrate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of bimekizumab administered subcutaneously (sc) compared with placebo in the treatment of tumor necrosis factor alpha-inadequate responders (TNFa-IR) subjects with active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA).

FIND is preparing a study to evaluate the performance, as measured by sensitivity and specificity, of four centralized assays for the detection of HCV RNA using capillary blood collected on dried blood spots (DBS) and plasma separation card (PSC).
