A randomized, double-blind, Phase 3 study comparing efficacy and safety of frexalimab (SAR441344) to placebo in adult participants with nonrelapsing secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (EFC17504 SPMS Trial)

Neurology Adult Subjects

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study is to determine the efficacy of frexalimab in delaying the disability progression and the safety up to approximately 51 months administration of study intervention compared to placebo in male and female participants with nrSPMS (aged 18 to 60 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with nrSPMS are eligible for enrollment as long as they meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Study details include: - This event-driven study will have variable duration ranging from approximately 27 to 51 months. - The study intervention duration will vary ranging from approximately 27 to 51 months. - The number of scheduled visits will be up to 27 (including 3 follow-up visits) with a visit frequency of every month for the first 6 months and then every 3 months.

Master protocol of two independent, randomized, double-blind, Phase 3 studies comparing efficacy and safety of frexalimab (SAR441344) to teriflunomide in adult participants with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (EFC17919 RRMS)

Neurology Adult Subjects

The purpose of each study is to independently measure the annualized relapse rate (ARR) with administration of frexalimab compared to a daily oral dose of teriflunomide in male and female participants with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (aged 18 to 55 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis are eligible for enrollment as long as they meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Study details include: - This event-driven study will have variable duration of approximately 40 months for the first participant being randomized and approximately 20 months for the last participant randomized. - The study intervention duration will vary ranging from approximately 20 to 40 months. - The assessment of scheduled visits will include 1 common end of study [EOS] visit and 3 follow-up visits) with a visit frequency of every 4 weeks for the first 6 months and then every 3 months.

A052101: A Randomized Phase 3 Trial of Continuous vs. Intermittent Maintenance Therapy with Zanubrutinib as Upfront Treatment in Older Patients with Mantle Cell Lymphoma

Cancer Internal Medicine Neurology Lymphoma Adult Subjects

This phase III trial tests whether continuous or intermittent zanubrutinib after achieving a complete remission (CR) with rituximab works in older adult patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have not received treatment in the past (previously untreated). Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Zanubrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. When zanubrutinib is used in MCL, the current standard of care is to continue administering the drug indefinitely until disease progression. This continuous treatment comes with clinical as well as financial toxicity, which could be especially detrimental in older patients. For patients who achieve a CR after initial zanubrutinib plus rituximab therapy, it may be safe and equally effective to stop treatment and restart zanubrutinib upon disease progression rather than continuing indefinitely in previously untreated older adult patients with MCL.

A Multicentre, Prospective, Randomized, Parallel Group, Open-label Design to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Endovascular Thrombectomy for ischemic stroke patients with symptomatic Acute Medium Vessel Intracranial Occlusions (ESCAPE-MeVO Trial)

Neurology Heart and Vascular Stroke Vascular Disease Adult Subjects

Stroke occurs when a blood clot causes a blockage in a blood vessel (artery) within the brain. This type of stroke is called an ischemic stroke and carries a high risk of disability or death. Stroke must be treated very fast. Any delay of even 10 minutes can result in the difference between an independent and a disabled outcome, and in some cases between life and death. Endovascular therapy (EVT) or Thrombectomy is a procedure to remove the blood clot (thrombus) from a blood vessel to reopen it (recanalization). Patients are likely to benefit from a thrombectomy procedure when it is performed in a larger blood vessel. Currently it is not known if thrombectomy procedure will benefit the patients presenting with the stroke that has been caused by a blood clot in a medium sized blood vessel (medium vessel occlusion, MeVO). This trial will enrol patients diagnosed with acute stroke due to a clot in the medium sized vessel. The patients will be randomized within 12 hours of their symptom onset to either standard of care or standard of care plus thrombectomy procedure. The participation will last for 12 months Escape MeVO coordinating centre is located at the University of Calgary. There will be up to 75 sites. We will be recruiting a total of 530 patients.

A PHASE III, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, MULTICENTER BASKET STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY, SAFETY, PHARMACOKINETICS, AND PHARMACODYNAMICS OF SATRALIZUMAB IN PATIENTS WITH ANTI-N-METHYL-D-ASPARTIC ACID RECEPTOR (NMDAR) OR ANTI-LEUCINE…

Neurology Cancer Brain and Spinal Cord Cancer Pediatric Subjects Adult Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of satralizumab in participants with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDAR) and anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) encephalitis.

Strategy for Improving Stroke Treatment Response (SISTER) Trial

Neurology Stroke Adult Subjects

SISTER is a Phase-II, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, dose finding trial that aims to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of TS23, a monoclonal antibody against the alpha-2 antiplasmin (a2-AP), in acute ischemic stroke.
