A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of FORE8394 in Participants With Cancer Harboring BRAF Alterations

Cancer Harboring BRAF Alterations · HGG · LGG

The objective of this Master Protocol is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of plixorafenib in participants with BRAF altered (BRAF V600E or BRAF fusions) locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, or recurrent or progressive primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors, including rare BRAF V600E-mutated solid tumors, including anaplastic thyroid, ovarian, cholangiocarcinoma or other rare cancers.

A Master Protocol of Multiple Agents in Adults With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (SYNERGY-Outcomes)

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

The main purpose of the SYNERGY-OUTCOMES study is to find out whether retatrutide and tirzepatide can prevent major adverse liver outcomes (MALO) in people with high-risk metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The study will enroll adults who have MASLD based on non-invasive tests (NITs), which indicate they are more likely to develop MALO. Participants will be randomly assigned within a Master Protocol to receive either retatrutide (N1T-MC-RT01), tirzepatide (N1T-MC-TZ01) or placebo. The trial plans to enroll about 4,500 adults and will run for approximately 224 weeks. Participants may have up to approximately 25 to 30 clinic visits throughout the study to monitor their health, complete study procedures, and assess liver function and disease progression. Once the study is complete, eligible participants may participate in an optional 2-year extension study, in which all participants will receive either retatrutide or tirzepatide, even if they received placebo in the main study.

ENLIGHT Trial: ESG With Fundal Mucosal Ablation

Obesity · Obesity (Body Mass Index >30 kg/m2)

The ENLIGHT Trial is a single-center, randomized controlled trial evaluating whether adding fundal mucosal ablation (FMA) to endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) improves weight loss and metabolic outcomes in adults with obesity. ESG reduces stomach volume through endoscopic suturing, while FMA uses Hybrid Argon Plasma Coagulation to ablate ghrelin-producing mucosa in the gastric fundus, potentially reducing hunger and improving satiety. Because previous ESG with FMA studies were small and single-arm, this trial is designed to provide comparative evidence against ESG alone. Eligible adults aged 18 years or older with a BMI of at least 30 kg/m² and a history of unsuccessful weight-loss attempts will be enrolled. Participants will be randomized on the procedure day to either ESG with FMA or standard ESG alone.

Participants will be randomized 1:1 on the procedure day to either ESG with FMA or standard ESG alone. The primary outcome is the difference between groups in percentage total body weight loss at 12 months. Secondary outcomes include percent excess weight loss, fasting ghrelin levels, blood pressure and antihypertensive medication use, lipid profile, fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis and fibrosis measures, quality of life, pain, gastric symptoms, appetite and eating behavior, and the frequency and severity of adverse events.

A Long-Term Study of Elafibranor in Adult Participants With Primary Biliary Cholangitis

Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC)

The participants of this study will have confirmed Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and cirrhosis (scarring of the liver). PBC is a slowly progressive disease, characterised by damage to the bile ducts in the liver, leading to a build-up of bile acids which causes further damage. The liver damage in PBC may lead to cirrhosis. PBC may also be associated with multiple symptoms. Many patients with PBC may require liver transplant or may die if the disease progresses and a liver transplant is not done. This study will compare a daily dose of elafibranor (the study drug) to a daily dose of placebo (a dummy treatment) and will last up to 3.5 years for each participant. The main aim of this study is to determine if elafibranor is better than placebo in preventing clinical outcome events showing disease worsening (including progression of disease leading to liver transplant or death). This study will also study the safety of long-term treatment with elafibranor, as well as the impact on symptoms such as itching and tiredness.

Effect of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty in Patients With Obesity and MASH: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Obesity · Liver Diseases · Liver Fibrosis

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally. While weight loss through lifestyle modification is the standard treatment, most patients regain weight limiting ultimate improvement in liver disease. On the other end of the spectrum, bariatric surgery has shown promise in the treatment of MASLD/metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) due to its efficacy in inducing weight loss. Nevertheless, its adoption has been hindered by the perceived invasiveness of surgery. Over the past decade, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) has gained recognition as a promising minimally-invasive approach to weight loss. The procedure involves utilizing a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-authorized endoscopic suturing device to reduce the gastric volume by 70%. Studies reveal that ESG is associated with approximately 18.2% weight loss at one year after the procedure, with sustained results for at least 10 years. Nevertheless, the effect of ESG on MASH remains unknown. In this study, the investigators will compare ESG + lifestyle modification versus lifestyle modification alone in treating histologic MASH. The study will randomize patients to one of two different treatment options: ESG + lifestyle modification or lifestyle modification alone.

CREO - Microwave Ablation Feasibility Study

Pancreatic Cancer · Liver Cancer (Locally Advanced or Metastatic) · Pancreatic Cancer Non-resectable

The goal of this study is to assess the overall success of energy delivery during treatment using the ultrasound guided microwave ablation device in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic cancer. Secondly, this study aims to explore the procedural/clinical safety of treatment with the device and the antitumor effect following treatment with the device.
