This paper extends results of Mortimer and Williams (1991) about changes of probability measure up to a random time under the assumptions that all martingales are continuous and that the random time avoids stopping times. We consider locally absolutely continuous measure changes up to a random time, changes of probability measure up to and after an honest time, and changes of probability measure up to a pseudo-stopping time. Moreover, we apply our results to construct a change of probability measure that is equivalent to the enlargement formula and to build, for a certain class of pseudo-stopping times, a class of measure changes that preserve the pseudo-stopping time property. Furthermore, we study for a price process modeled by a continuous semimartingale the stability of the No Free Lunch with Vanishing Risk (NFLVR) property up to a random time, that avoids stopping times, in the progressively enlarged filtration and provide sufficient conditions for this stability in terms of the Azéma supermartingale.
