This study looked at whether tesamorelin (Egrifta), a daily injection that boosts growth hormone, can improve body composition in people with HIV who have excess belly fat (lipodystrophy). Six participants received the drug for up to 12 months, with researchers measuring liver fa…

This study tested a new drug (BMS-986218) plus nivolumab and targeted radiation in people with advanced solid tumors that had spread. The goal was to see if this combination could help the immune system fight cancer better. Only 13 people took part before the study was stopped ea…

This early-phase trial tested a new therapeutic vaccine (EO2401) combined with the immunotherapy drug nivolumab in 70 people with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma or malignant pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma. The goal was to see if the combination is safe and can shrink tumors or…

This study tested leflunomide, a drug used for rheumatoid arthritis, in 3 adults with MEN1 syndrome—a genetic condition that raises the risk of multiple tumors. The goal was to see if 6 months of daily leflunomide could shrink or stabilize tumors. However, the trial was terminate…

This early-stage study tested a combination of two drugs, niraparib and dostarlimab, in children and teens (ages 6 months to 17 years) with solid tumors that had come back or were not responding to treatment. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the drugs could shrink tumo…

This early-phase trial tested a radioactive drug designed to seek out and destroy cancer cells in people with advanced solid tumours that had stopped responding to other treatments. The drug targets a protein called IGF-1R found on many cancer cells. The study aimed to find a saf…

This study tested an experimental drug called tildacerfont in 67 children aged 2 to 17 with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a genetic condition that disrupts hormone production. The goal was to see if adding this once-daily pill to standard steroid treatment could improve d…

This early-phase study tested a drug called abiraterone acetate (normally used for prostate cancer) in 4 children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The goal was to see if it could lower high male hormone levels and reduce the need for strong steroid medications that can …

This early-stage trial tested a gene therapy called SBT101 for adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), a rare nerve disease that causes walking difficulties. Eight adults received either the therapy or a sham procedure. The study was terminated early, so we have limited data on safety and e…

This study tested a drug called tildacerfont in 27 women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who had high levels of adrenal androgens (hormones). The goal was to see if the drug could safely lower these hormones. The trial was stopped early, so results are limited.

This study tested a daily tablet called Tildacerfont in 100 adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a condition where the body can't make certain hormones properly. The goal was to see if the drug could safely reduce the high doses of steroids patients need to take. T…

This study tested a new oral drink (GS3-007a) to diagnose adult growth hormone deficiency (AGHD). It compared the drink to the standard insulin tolerance test in 120 adults suspected of having AGHD and healthy volunteers. The goal was to see if the oral test works as well as the …

This study aimed to compare the types of Candida yeast found in patients with two forms of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy, a rare condition where the immune system attacks multiple glands. Researchers planned to collect samples from the mouth and urine of 7 participants to see how…

This study followed 65 adult men with a rare inherited nerve disease called AMN (a form of spastic paraplegia) to understand how their symptoms change over time. Researchers collected data on walking ability and quality of life. The goal was to fill gaps in knowledge about the di…
