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.
Because locally far-advanced gastric cancer combined with adjacent tissue invasion has a poor prognosis, some phase 2 and 3 clinical trials of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) are performed in Japan. However, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) achieves superior local tumor control compared with NAC. This feasibility trial explored the feasibility and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) in this type of gastric cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of GSK1550188 in Japanese subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
This study is designed to evaluate efficacy and dose-dependency of 5-aminolevulinic acid in subjects with iron deficiency anemia.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of Gamma3 intramedullary nails versus sliding hip screws on health-related quality of life as measured by the EuroQuol-5D at 52 weeks in individuals with trochanteric fractures. Secondary outcomes include revision surgery rates, fracture healing rates, fracture related adverse events, and health-related quality of life, including the Parker mobility score and Harris Hip Score.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy (immunogenicity) of TAK-816 when administered to healthy Japanese infants as multiple subcutaneous doses.
The purpose of this study is to provide efficacy and safety data of 3 consecutive monthly intravitreal injections with 0.5 mg ranibizumab in Japanese patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (BRVO or CRVO) to support the applicability of the phase III study results of BRAVO and CRUISE in this indication, in the Japanese ethnic patients.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of secukinumab when added to a background therapy in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are intolerant to or have had an inadequate response to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α agents.
This study is a regulatory post-marketing surveillance in Japan, and it is a local prospective and observational study of patients who have received Magnevist at a dose of more than 0.2 ml/kg for MR angiography of peripheral vasculature with continuous imaging from the abdomen to the lower extremities. The objective of this study is to assess safety, especially in relation to renal dysfunction, and efficacy of using Magnevist in clinical practice. A total 2,000 patients will be recruited.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder 125/25 mcg once-daily. The product will be delivered via the Novel Dry Powder Inhaler (nDPI) over 52 weeks to Japanese subjects with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). This is a multi-centre, open-label study evaluating the safety of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder 125/25 mcg. Treatment will be given once-daily in the morning. The target enrolment is approximately 120 subjects at approximately 20 study centres in Japan. The total duration of subject participation will be 54-55 weeks, consisting of a 7-14 day run-in period, 52-week treatment period and 1-week follow-up period. Subjects meeting all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria at screening visit (Visit 1) will enter 7-14 day run-in period. The run-in period is provided for completion of baseline safety evaluations and to obtain baseline measures of COPD status. At Visit 2, eligible subjects will start to take GSK573719/GW642444 125/25 mcg, and enter the treatment period. This treatment will be delivered via the Novel Dry Powder Inhaler (nDPI) once daily in the morning for 52 weeks. One nDPI will contain 30 doses of study medication. Subjects will be instructed to administer medication once daily in the morning for the duration of the 52-week treatment period. Each subject should be advised to adhere to this dosing regimen throughout the study. There will be a total of 8 study visits including at screening (Visit 1), initiation of treatment (Visit 2), and at 4weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 36 weeks, 52 weeks (Visit 3 through Visit 8, respectively). Follow-up (Visit 9) will be conducted by the phone contact approximately 1 week following the completion/withdrawal of treatment period. A subject will be considered to have completed the study upon completion of the last on-treatment visit (Visit 8). At the end of the treatment period, subjects will be prescribed appropriate COPD medication at the investigator's discretion.
To investigate safety and efficacy on Japanese subjects treated with nelarabine injection for intravenous use in clinical settings of the following diseases: 1. T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (T-ALL) 2. T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) Also, "any adverse events involving neurological disorder, hypotension, and blood disorder and their details" are to be investigated as an item of particular concern. In addition, subject outcome (alive or dead) at one year after the start of treatment will also be investigated.
