Recombinant Human Thymosin Beta 4 for Injection(NL005) for Acute Myocardial Infarction

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (not yet recruiting). The goal of this phase IIc clinical trial is to learn if recombinant human thymosin beta 4 injection (NL005) works to treat heart damage in people who have had a serious type of heart attack called ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and have been treated with emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI, a procedure to open the blocked artery). It will also learn about the safety of NL005. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does NL005 lower the size of permanent heart muscle damage measured by cardiac m

Tirzepatide s Dopaminergic Effects in Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD)

Registered Phase 1 interventional trial (recruiting). Background: Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonist drugs are used to treat diabetes and aid weight loss. They may also help reduce cravings for drugs and alcohol. Researchers want to know if a GLP-1 drug (tirzepatide) can lessen the urge to drink in people with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Objective: To learn how the brains of people with AUD respond to a GLP-1 drug. Eligibility: People aged 21 to 65 years with AUD who are non-treatment seeking. They must be enrolled in protocol 14-AA-0181. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: This s

Efficacy and Safety of Oral KAI-7535 in Adult Participants Living With Obesity or Overweight With at Least 1 Weight-Related Comorbidity

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (recruiting). The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of oral KAI-7535 once daily compared with placebo on percent change in body weight in participants living with obesity or overweight, with at least 1 weight-related comorbidity, without diabetes mellitus. Efficacy in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus will be evaluated. Safety and tolerability and other weight-related outcomes will be evaluated in both types of participants.

MODERN-Dental: Pediatric Obesity, Cardiometabolic Risks, And Periodontal Disease

Registered N/A interventional trial (not yet recruiting). The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether adjunctive dental cleaning can enhance the effects of semaglutide in children with obesity. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer \[is/are\]: if dental cleaning will improve both oral health and metabolic outcomes beyond the effects of semaglutide alone. Participants will receive either dental cleaning and oral hygiene instruction or oral hygiene instruction alone.

BPC 157 for Acute Hamstring Muscle Strain Repair

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (recruiting). This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study evaluates whether pentadecapeptide BPC 157 (BPC-157), an investigational peptide, can speed structural healing and functional recovery after an acute grade II hamstring muscle strain. Participants will receive BPC 157 or placebo for 14 days in addition to a standardized rehabilitation program. The co-primary endpoints are time to return to unrestricted sport and change in MRI-assessed injury volume at Day 14.
