At Ann Arbor, Thomas Francis Jr announced the results of the largest medical field trial ever run - 1.8 million children - and pronounced Jonas Salk's polio vaccine safe, effective and potent. Church bells rang across the United States; within two years American cases had fallen by almost 90 per cent.

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals's phase 3 trial of REGN7508 in venous thromboembolism reaches primary completion, the point at which the last participant's primary outcome is measured. The trial enrolled 2,000 participants. This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN7508 (called "study drug").

The aim of the study is to see how effective the study drug is at preventing Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) and other related diseases after total knee replacement surgery. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * What side effects may happen from taking the study drug * How much study drug is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the study drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

Boehringer Ingelheim's phase 3 trial of BI 690517 in kidney disease, chronic reaches primary completion, the point at which the last participant's primary outcome is measured. The trial enrolled 11,000 participants. 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.

People who already take empagliflozin or any other sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) can also join. The study is also open to people who currently do not take any of these treatments. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 690517 helps people with chronic kidney disease when taken in combination with a study medicine called empagliflozin. Worsening of kidney function increases the risk for kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and heart failure hospitalisation. After a run-in period, during which participants are confirmed to be receiving clinical

Pfizer's phase 3 trial of C.Difficile Vaccine in clostridoides difficile associated disease reaches primary completion, the point at which the last participant's primary outcome is measured. The trial enrolled 32,500 participants. The purpose of the study is to learn about how effective, safe, and tolerable the Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) vaccine is in decreasing the number of C. difficile infections (pCDI) in adults 65 years of age or older. The participants will receive either the C. difficile vaccine or placebo (saline). A placebo does not contain any active ingredients. The vaccines will be given as a shot into the upper arm muscle. This study looks at the number of diarrhea (loose stools) events related to a C. difficile infection, so the length of the study can change. If these events happen quickly, the study may finish sooner; if they happen slowly, it could take longer. Sometimes, the study might stop early if the vaccine clearly does not work. Participants will stay in the study until enough events have occurred to answer the main question. On average, each person is expected to take part for

Pfizer's phase 3 trial of PG4 in pneumococcal disease reaches primary completion, the point at which the last participant's primary outcome is measured. The trial enrolled 2,400 participants. The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of a new pneumococcal vaccine and how the new pneumococcal vaccine helps to fight against germs that can cause pneumonia (lung infections), meningitis (brain infections), and otitis media (ear infections) in infants when compared to the pneumococcal vaccine that is currently in use, 20vPnC (Prevnar 20®). This study will test if the new pneumococcal vaccine is as safe as the one that is currently in use. This new vaccine can possibly provide additional protection against germs that cause pneumococcal disease that are not included in the vaccines that are currently given to infants. Pneumococcal disease includes a variety of infections caused by a specific germ, Streptococcus pneumoniae. There are two groups in this study. All participants will be assigned to one of the two groups. This study is seeking participants who are: \- infants
