SGLT2i and KNO3 in HFpEF - The SAK HFpEF Trial
Summary: This study will test whether pharmacologic agents that may improve mitochondrial function and energy fuel metabolism \[Empagliflozin (Empa)\], with and without additional supplements that increase perfusion and fatty acid oxidation \[Potassium Nitrate (KNO3)\], improve submaximal exercise endurance and skeletal muscle oxidative phosphorylation capacity (SkM OxPhos) in participants with Heart Failu...
Comparative Study on the Mode of Action of Vicadrostat and Spironolactone on Protein Profiles and Renal Hemodynamic Effects in Patients Chronic Kidney Disease With Cardiovascular Disease /Heart Failure
Summary: In this study, investigators will compare the effect of vicadrostat combined with empagliflozin with the effect of spironolactone combined with empagliflozin on renal function and changes in protein profiles in blood and urine. The hypothesis is that the renal and cardiac responses between vicadrostat and spironolactone differ due to mechanistic differences in their mode of action. Spironolactone ...
EASi-HF Reduced - A Phase III Double-blind, Randomised, Parallel-group Superiority Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of the Combined Use of Oral Vicadrostat (BI 690517) and Empagliflozin Compared With Placebo and Empagliflozin in Participants With Symptomatic Chronic Heart Failure (HF: NYHA II-IV) and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) < 40%
Summary: This study is open to adults with chronic heart failure (HF) who have a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of less than 40%. People can join the study if they have been diagnosed with chronic HF at least 3 months before they start on the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called vicadrostat, in combination with another medicine called empagliflozin, h...
EASi-HF Preserved - A Phase III Double-blind, Randomised, Parallel-group Superiority Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of the Combined Use of Oral Vicadrostat (BI 690517) and Empagliflozin Compared With Placebo and Empagliflozin in Participants With Symptomatic Heart Failure (HF: NYHA II-IV) and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≥40%
Summary: This study is open to adults aged 18 or above legal age with heart failure. People can join the study if they have heart failure symptoms and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 40% or more. The purpose of this study is to find out whether vicadrostat (BI 690517) in combination with empagliflozin helps people with heart failure. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. Every partic...
A Multicenter, International, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial of the Aldosterone Synthase Inhibitor BI 690517 in Combination With Empagliflozin in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
Summary: This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression. People with and without type 2 diabetes can take part in this study. The study is open to people who take other medicines called angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). People who already take empagliflozin or any other sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) c...
A Phase II Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Multicentre, International Trial to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Vicadrostat and Empagliflozin Administered With Simultaneous vs Staggered Initiation in Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease at Risk of Kidney Disease Progression
Summary: This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that is at risk of getting worse. People who have taken a specific type of medication for kidney disease called SGLT2 inhibitor within 1 month before the study or have certain health conditions cannot take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called vicadrostat, used in combination with anothe...
An Open Label Clinical Trial of Metformin in Those With CFRD on CFTR Modulator Therapy to Improve Ion Channel Function
Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of metformin to improve airway ion channel function in those with CF-related diabetes (CFRD)
A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial With an Open-label Extension to Assess the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy of Empagliflozin Tablets in Paediatric Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (EMPA-KIDNEY® Kids)
Summary: This study is open to children aged 2 to 17 with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called empagliflozin helps children and adolescents with CKD. Other goals of the study are to find out how empagliflozin is tolerated and handled by the body in children and adolescents with CKD. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. On...
Effect of Dapagliflozin on Metabolomics and Cardiac Mechanics in Chronic Kidney Disease
Summary: The goal of this study is to better understand the effects of a sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitor, dapagliflozin, added on to standard of care on heart and lung function and circulating metabolites (substances created when our bodies break down food, drugs, or its own tissues) in patients with chronic kidney disease.
PRECIDENTD: PREvention of CardIovascular and DiabEtic kidNey Disease in Type 2 Diabetes
Summary: PRECIDENTD is a randomized, open label, pragmatic clinical trial designed to compare rates of the total number of cardiovascular, kidney, and death events among two alternative treatments for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and either established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or at high risk for ASCVD. To accomplish this objective, we will randomly assign 6,000 patients with e...
A Phase 1, 4-arm, Open-label, Drug-drug Interaction Trial to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Repinatrabit Oral Tablets When Co-administered With Ethinyl Estradiol/Norethindrone, Metformin, Carbamazepine, Rosuvastatin, and Methotrexate in Healthy Participants
Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the drug-drug interaction (DDI) of repinatrabit with ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone or norethisterone (EE/NE), metformin, rosuvastatin, carbamazepine, and methotrexate in healthy participants.
Effect of Metformin Plus Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Compared With Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Alone for Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and EGFR Mutations: Phase 3 Randomized Clinical Trial
Summary: Lung cancer is the most common neoplastic disease globally, with over 2 million new cases annually, accounting for 11.6% of all cancer diagnoses. It remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) makes up 80-85% of lung cancer cases, with most patients diagnosed at an advanced stage. Five-year survival rates are low, ranging from 8-18% worldwide. Advances in...
