There are about 7997 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Japan. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study assesses the impact of tezepelumab treatment not only on asthma control but also on cough specific Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). Asthma control can be evaluated using Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ). Cough symptom which is one of the symptoms related airway hyperresponsiveness can be assessed via the relevant questionnaire, Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ). There is moderate negative correlation between ACQ and LCQ . Improvements in both asthma control and cough symptom by tezepelumab would clarify effectiveness of Tezepelumab in real-world. Though Tezepelumab is recently approved in Japan, there is no real-world evidence on tezepelumab, particularly on above mentioned symptoms. Thus, this study aims to estimate effectiveness of tezepelumab on asthma and cough symptoms in real world settings.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety, and reactogenicity of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine in an immunocompromised (lung and renal transplant recipients) population and assess whether a second dose of the vaccine increases the immune response.
The primary objective of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in participants who receive sotorasib with platinum doublet chemotherapy versus participants who receive pembrolizumab with platinum doublet chemotherapy.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. The purpose of this study is to assess how safe and effective ABBV-951 is in treating participants with Parkinson's disease in real world setting. ABBV-951 is an approved drug being developed for the treatment of PD in Japan. Approximately 250 adult participants over 15 years with a diagnosis of PD who are prescribed ABBV-951 by their physicians will be enrolled in this study across Japan. Participants will receive ABBV-951 as prescribed their physician and followed for 52 weeks. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Study visits may be conducted on-site or virtually as per standard of care.
Researchers are looking for a better way to help people with any known or suspected problems (except brain or spinal cord-related problems) scheduled for a "contrast-enhanced" Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). MRI is used by doctors to create detailed images of the inside of the body to identify health problems. Sometimes doctors need to inject contrast agent into a patient's vein to perform a so called "contrast-enhanced" MRI (CE-MRI). Such CE-MRI examinations may support doctors to identify certain health problems or improve the evaluation. The contrast agents commonly used in MRI are gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). GBCAs contain a "rare earth" element called gadolinium (Gd). Gadoquatrane is a new contrast agent under development with a lower amount of Gd needed per CE-MRI. The main purpose of this study is to learn whether CE-MRI scans with gadoquatrane work better than MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent (GBCA). The researchers will compare the ability to detect known or suspected problems (except brain or spinal cord-related problems) with gadoquatrane-MRI scans to plain-MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent. The participants will undergo 2 MRI scans, one with gadoquatrane and one with currently used GBCA. Both contrast agents will be injected into the vein. Each participant will be in the study for between 6 and 42 days with up to 7 doctor visits. At the start or during the study, the doctors and their study team will: - take blood and urine samples - do physical examinations - check blood pressure and heart rate - review the MRI scans obtained in the study and decide on the diagnosis - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatments.

Researchers are looking for a better way to help children under the age of 18 with any known or suspected problems scheduled for a "contrast-enhanced" Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). MRI is used by doctors to create detailed images of the inside of the body to identify health problems. Sometimes doctors need to inject a contrast agent into a patient's vein to perform a "contrast-enhanced" MRI (CE-MRI). Such CE-MRI examinations may support doctors to identify certain health problems or improve their evaluation. The contrast agents commonly used in MRI are gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). GBCAs contain a "rare earth" element called gadolinium (Gd), which is needed for the increase in signal intensity and contrast in MRI. The gadolinium in these contrast agents is caged in a molecule (chelate complex). Researchers are developing new contrast agents with a lower amount of Gd needed per CE-MRI investigation. Gadoquatrane is one of these new contrast agents. It has been tested in several studies previously. The main purpose of this study is to learn how gadoquatrane moves into, through, and out of the body and how safe it is in children. The researchers will measure the amount of gadoquatrane in the blood at different time points after a single injection. The participants will undergo an MRI examination and receive gadoquatrane once at a dose of 0.04 mmol Gd/kg (corresponding to 0.1 mL/kg). It is injected into the participant's vein (also called an intravenous injection) during the MRI examination. Each participant will be in the study for between 8 and 38 days with up to 5 doctor visits, including the screening phase of up to 28 days with no more than 2 visits. Once a participant has received the injection of gadoquatrane, the remaining study duration is 7 (±1) days. At the start or during the study, the doctors and their study team will: - check the weight and height of the participant, - ask for information including age and medical history, - take participants' blood samples, - ask participants and/or their guardians questions about medicines they are taking, - check blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature, - check the area where the participants had the intravenous injection, - do pregnancy tests in girls of childbearing age, - review the MRI scans obtained in the study and decide on the diagnosis - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatments.

Study design is multicenter prospective registry study. Participants are consecutive (non-selected, a sequential registration) patients admitted from emergency rooms of participating hospitals who meet the eligibility criteria. The primary objectives are to estimate the prevalence of and risk factors for RS and other respiratory virus infection and their effect on hospital course in patients with any respiratory symptom who admit from emergency room using a multicenter prospective registry study. The primary target virus is RS virus and the secondary target viruses are respiratory virus and other microorganisms measured by FilmArray 2.1.
