The purpose of the study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called ritlecitinib) for the treatment of alopecia areata. Alopecia areata is a disease that causes hair loss on the scalp, face, and areas of the body.

Ritlecitinib is approved in many countries at a dose of 50 mg (milligram) taken by mouth once a day for the treatment of patients 12 years and older with severe alopecia areata. This study will look at both the 50 mg dose and a 100 mg dose.

This study is seeking participants who:

* Are 12 years of age or older
* Have a diagnosis of alopecia areata
* Have lost 50% or more of the hair on their scalp
* Do not have any other conditions that causes hair loss
* Are willing to stop all other treatments that they may be taking for alopecia areata

About 550 participants will take part in in this study.

Participants will be chosen by chance, like drawing names out of a hat, to receive 1 of 2 different amounts of ritlecitinib (50 mg and 100 mg) taken by mouth once daily.

The 2 doses of ritlecitinib in this study will be compared to each other and also to data from previous studies. This will help to see if the 100 mg dose of ritlecitinib is safe and effective.

People will be in this study for about 13 months. During the study, participants will need to visit the study site up to 9 times. Participants will undergo various tests and procedures such as:

* alopecia areata assessment,
* physical examinations,
* hearing tests,
* blood tests,
* x-ray,
* ECG (electrocardiogram),
* photographs of the scalp and eyes. Participants will also be asked to complete questionnaires about their alopecia areata.

This phase II trial compares the effectiveness of adding BMX-001 to usual symptom management versus usual symptom management alone for reducing oral mucositis in patients who are receiving chemoradiation for head and neck cancer. Oral mucositis (inflammation and mouth sores) is a common side effect of chemoradiation that can cause pain and difficulty swallowing. Usual management of these side effects typically consists of using mouth rinses and pain medications during treatment and for several weeks after completion of treatment. BMX-001 neutralizes harmful substances in the body, preventing damage to macromolecules such as DNA and minimizes free radical-related toxicity in normal tissues. Adding BMX-001 to usual symptom management may be more effective than usual symptom management alone at reducing oral mucositis in patients receiving chemoradiation for head and neck cancer.

AB-101 (also known as AlloNK) is an off-the shelf, allogeneic cell product made of "natural killer" cells, also called NK cells. White blood cells are part of the immune system and NK cells are a type of white blood cell that is known to enhance the effect of monoclonal antibody therapies.

This clinical trial will enroll adult patients with lupus nephritis Class III or IV either with or without the presence of Class V who relapsed or did not respond to previous standard of care treatment approaches, or other forms of refractory systemic lupus erythematosus.

The primary objective is to assess the safety, tolerability and preliminary activity of AB-101 plus a B-cell depleting mAb (e.g., rituximab, obinutuzumab) after cyclophosphamide and fludarabine in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory lupus nephritis Class III or IV, with or without the presence of Class V, or other forms of refractory systemic lupus erythematosus.

Patients will be assigned to receive either AB-101 alone as monotherapy or in combination with a B-cell depleting mAb (e.g., rituximab, obinutuzumab). All patients will receive at least 1 treatment cycle of AB-101, followed by scheduled assessments of overall health and response status.

Patients may receive up to 2 cycles of treatment spaced 24 weeks apart.

The purpose of this program is to provide access to obe-cel treatment for adult patients with ALL who have undergone leukapheresis and had obe-cel manufactured from their blood cells but the product is deemed OOS (does not meet the specifications to be used commercially). The target patients for this study have limited options for treatment and repeat blood sampling is not feasible. The main aims of this study are (1) to provide adult patients with ALL with access to obe-cel and (2) to describe the safety profile of obe-cel (including CRS, ICANS, serious infections, secondary cancers, and any side effects) within the first 45 days after infusion of OOS obe-cel.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter expanded access program (EAP). The patient population included in this EAP will be adult patients diagnosed with recurring or refractory ALL who were prescribed obe-cel as part of their standard of care and are eligible for use under the approved local prescribing information.

To be in the study, patients must provide informed consent, be at least 18 years of age, have a confirmed diagnosis of ALL, be medically fit and stable to receive obe-cel, have had commercial obe-cel prescribed by their treating physician as per standard of care, and for whom remanufacturing is not clinically appropriate.

Patients cannot be in the study if they have a history of severe immediate allergic reaction to any drugs or metabolites of similar chemical classes as obe-cel, are a pregnant woman, or are receiving treatment in another study.

All data will be collected from information routinely recorded in the medical record. There is no formal hypothesis testing. Data will be analyzed descriptively (numbers, percentages and ranges, etc.).

Phase 1b, open-label study of CLN-978 administered subcutaneously in patients with Moderate to Severe Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and evaluate the safety and tolerability of mavorixafor in participants with congenital or acquired primary autoimmune and idiopathic chronic neutropenic disorders who are experiencing recurrent and/or serious infections as assessed by demonstrating its clinical benefit and increasing levels of circulating neutrophils.

Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, and pharmacodynamics of solrikitug in adult participants with eosinophilic esophagitis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of rapcabtagene autoleucel (administered once following lymphodepletion) in participants with severe refractory diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis relative to rituximab.
