The primary objectives of the study are: To assess the safety profile of the study vaccines in each study intervention group. To assess the neutralizing antibody profile after primary series vaccination in SARS-CoV-2-naïve adults. To demonstrate that a booster dose of monovalent or bivalent SARS-CoV-2 vaccine given to adults previously vaccinated with an authorized/approved COVID-19 vaccine induces an immune response that is non-inferior to the response induced by a twodose priming series with the monovalent vaccine, and superior to that observed immediately before booster. The secondary objectives of the study are: To assess the neutralizing and binding antibody profiles after primary series vaccination at pre-defined time points during the study. To assess the neutralizing and binding antibody responses of booster vaccination. To describe the occurrences of laboratory-confirmed symptomatic COVID19 after primary series and booster vaccination. To describe the occurrences of serologically-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection after primary series vaccination.
This study is open to adults with a chronic inflammatory skin disease called hidradenitis suppurativa. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called spesolimab helps people with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes spesolimab. The other group takes placebo. Every participant has twice the chance of being in the spesolimab group than in the placebo group. Participants get spesolimab or placebo as an infusion into a vein every week for the first 3 weeks. Afterwards, they get spesolimab or placebo as injections under the skin every 2 weeks. Placebo infusions and injections look like spesolimab infusions and injections but do not contain any medicine. Participants are treated in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 9 times. After completing this part of the study, participants are offered to join another clinical study in which all participants get spesolimab. Participants who cannot join the other study, stay in this study for about 4 more months. During this time, participants do not take spesolimab nor placebo but they visit the study site 2 times to have their health checked. At study visits, doctors thoroughly check the skin of participants to count lumps (nodules) and boils (abscesses). The results between the spesolimab group and the placebo group are compared after 3 months of treatment. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the excessive endogenous production of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone. Although various rare forms of PA exist, the vast majority of cases are accounted by either an aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) or bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. During the last decades the prevalence of PA has risen, predominantly due to better awareness of disease. Several studies estimated a prevalence of PA up to 17% in an unselected population of hypertensive patients. However, in a population with resistant hypertension the reported prevalence is even higher: 17-23%. This emphasizes the clinical impact of PA on morbidity and mortality due to high blood pressure. Since both hypertension and aldosteronism are independent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity, the aim of treatment is curation or reduction of both. After an adrenalectomy for APA normalization of biochemical abnormalities is achieved in almost all cases. Nevertheless, curation of hypertension (systolic blood pressure <140 and diastolic blood pressure <90 mmHg) without the need of antihypertensive medication is accomplished in only 35-45% of the cases. In 2008 the Aldosteronoma Resolution Score (ARS) was developed. This score predicts the likelihood of complete resolution of the hypertension in patients with an aldosteronoma and has been validated by other investigator groups. Reduction of hypertension is also an important clinical outcome and is reported in 90-98% of the patients after surgery. In most studies reduction is defined as a certain decrease in blood pressure or antihypertensive medication. However, there is no consensus on the precise definition of reduction in these patients, which leads to incomparable results. The aim of the proposed study is to determine the proportion of patients with clinically relevant reduction of hypertension after adrenalectomy in a large cohort. Furthermore, the investigators aim to determine the characteristics predicting this clinically relevant reduction. Additionally, the investigators evaluate the predictive value of the Aldosteronoma Resolution Score for clinically relevant reduction and aim to develop a scoring system to help clinicians predict the likelihood of reduction of hypertension after adrenalectomy so it can be used for patient counseling.

The purpose of the study is to characterize various healthcare practitioners' perspectives on implementation of beta-lactam therapeutic drug monitoring in critical care practice.
The aim of this clinical investigation is to collect long-term safety and performance data with the Active Osseointegrated Steady-State Implant System by following subjects from the previous Osia clinical investigation CBAS5751. In addition, questions regarding device satisfaction, sound satisfaction, usability and health care utilisation will be asked.
This is a phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study in healthy subjects to evaluate safety, tolerability, PKs and PDs of AND017 following oral single and multiple dose administration.
This study is open to adults with diabetic kidney disease. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 685509 improves kidney function. Three different doses of BI 685509 are tested in this study. Participants get either one of the three doses of BI 685509 or placebo. It is decided by chance who gets which BI 685509 dose and who gets placebo. Participants take BI 685509 or placebo as tablets 3 times a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 685509 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants continue taking their usual medicine for diabetes and kidney disease throughout the study. Participants are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 11 times. Where possible, about 6 of the 11 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Kidney function is assessed based on the analysis of urine samples, which participants collect at home. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different doses of BI 685509 and placebo. During the study, the doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
