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.
The main aim of the study is to check for long-term side effects of Vedolizumab Subcutaneous (also known as Vedolizumab SC) in people with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Vedolizumab SC will be given as an injection just under the skin. This type of injection is called a subcutaneous injection or SC for short. Another aim of the study is to collect information on whether the participant's condition remains under control or improves during and after treatment with Vedolizumab SC. Participants who previously took part in studies MLN0002SC-3027 or MLN0002SC-3031 will be invited to visit the study clinic. At this visit, the study doctor will check if each participant can take part in this study. For those who can take part, participants will receive a subcutaneous injection of vedolizumab SC either once a week or once every 2 weeks. How often each participant receives vedolizumab SC will depend on their results from the previous study and on how active their condition is. Participants might be able to self-inject vedolizumab SC after being trained by the study doctors. During this study, the dose of vedolizumab SC might be increased for participants whose condition worsens. Participants will continue treatment with vedolizumab SC until it is approved in their particular country, the participant decides to stop treatment, or the sponsor stops the study. If the sponsor stops the study before vedolizumab SC is approved in all countries, the sponsor will make sure all affected participants will have access to vedolizumab SC outside of the study. After their final dose of vedolizumab SC, participants will visit the clinic 18 weeks later for a final check-up. Then, the clinic will telephone the participants 6 months after their final dose of vedolizumab SC to check if they have any health problems.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of reducing dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration to 1 month after implantation of the everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stent (CoCr-EES).
Human immune function and intestinal microbiota are suggested to be altered within long-duration stay in space. Accumulated evidences on earth support that Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) is a promising probiotic strain on improvement of immune function and intestinal microbiota. This study aims to investigate the impact of long-duration spaceflight as well as intake of LcS on the international space station (ISS), on immune system and intestinal microbiota in astronauts.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients with glioblastoma that is MGMT-unmethylated (the MGMT gene is not altered by a chemical change). Patients will receive Nivolumab every two weeks in addition to radiation therapy, and then every four weeks. They will be compared to patients receiving standard therapy with temozolomide in addition to radiation therapy.
Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an uncommon inflammatory disorder that may affect multiple organ systems, including the biliary tree. IgG4-sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) can be difficult to distinguish from primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) or cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). The investigators aim to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of bile for the diagnosis of IgG4-SC. Bile samples of patients with biliary strictures of various causes, including IgG4-SC, PSC, and CCA, will be collected during clinical cholangiography procedures. IgG4 will be measured in bile specimens and bile IgG4 concentrations compared between IgG4-SC, PSC, CCA, and other types of biliary strictures.
This non-interventional cross-sectional online survey will evaluate preferences among patients with self-reported HCC. The survey will ask patients to express their preferences regarding descriptions of HCC treatments, which will include sorafenib (which will be described as 'oral anti-cancer therapy'), repeated transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC). Please note that all interventions that patients may have received before completing this online survey were given regardless of their participation in this survey. Questions also include asking patients to rank various treatment characteristics (e.g., mechanism of action, risk of adverse effects, etc.) relative to each other. The ultimate goal is to better understand patient perceptions of these treatments and to provide evidence to help in patients' and physicians' treatment decision-making in HCC.
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of once-weekly NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan) treatment compared to daily growth hormone treatment (Norditropin® FlexPro®) in growth hormone treatment naïve pre-pubertal children with growth hormone deficiency. The trial consists of a 26 week main trial period, followed by a 26 week extension trial period, a 104 week safety extension period, a 208 week longterm safety extension trial period and a 30 day follow up period. Participants receive NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan) (0.04 mg/kg/week) during the main trial and the extension period and thereafter NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan) (0.16 mg/kg/week) during the safety extension and the long-term safety extension periods. Two additional age groups, cohort II (age below 2 years and 26 weeks at screening) and cohort III (above 9 years (girls)/ above 10 years (boys) and equal to or below 17 years at screening) are included in the 208 week long-term safety extension trial period only.
48-hour application of metal allergen patches to test for potential allergic responses.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the study drug known as LY2599666 in different groups of people - those who are healthy, those who have mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's Disease (AD), and those with mild-to-moderate AD. The study will measure how much LY2599666 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to get rid of it. It will also evaluate how LY2599666 affects the body. The study has three parts. Part A will last about 2 months. Parts B and C will each last about 23 weeks. Participants may only enroll in one part.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combination of panitumumab and Triflridine/Tipiracil (FTD/TPI; TAS-102) in patients with RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) refractory to standard chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, fluoropyrimidines, irinotecan and angiogenesis inhibitors).
