Study of a new antibody for advanced tumors with FGFR1 protein
This trial tests an experimental antibody, OM-RCA-01, in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of a protein called FGFR1. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.
Kazan'Ages 18 years+ - NCT07292714RecruitingPhase 2
Testing 9MW1911 for people with moderate to severe COPD
This trial tests a new medication called 9MW1911 to see if it can help people with moderate to severe COPD who have had recent flare-ups. It is for current or former smokers ages 40 to 75 who are already on standard COPD treatments.
Chizhou, AnhuiAges 40–75 - NCT07292805Recruiting
Bronchial thermoplasty for severe asthma
This study tests a procedure called bronchial thermoplasty for adults with severe asthma that is not controlled with standard treatments. It aims to see if this can help reduce asthma attacks in people who have already tried or cannot use biologic therapies.
