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 purpose of the study in Phase I is to select the recommended dose of bortezomib in combination with melphalan and prednisolone in Japanese participants. In Phase II, to assess the effectiveness and safety of the recommended dose of bortezomib (selected in the phase I portion).
Trial of sorafenib versus placebo in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer refractory to radioiodine
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, Japan, Oceania, North America and South America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of turoctocog alfa (N8) in Haemophilia A patients. The trial is an extension to trials NN7008-3543 (start: March 2009, stop: September 2011) and NN7008-3545 (start: May 2010, stop: November 2011) and the pharmacokinetic trials NN7008-3600 (start: November 2010, stop: October 2011), NN7008-3893 (start: June 2011, stop: September 2011) and NN7008-4015 (start: August 2012, stop: March 2013).
The purpose of this study was to determine whether ixabepilone is effective in the treatment of unresectable or metastatic gastric cancer in Asian participants.
The purpose of the study is two-fold. In Phase I (Protecta Clinical Study), system performance will be evaluated. In Phase II (PainFree SST), the inappropriate shock-free rate at one year of subjects implanted with a Medtronic Protecta implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) will be evaluated.
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy (as measured by the rate of recurrent symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism [VTE] (i.e., Pulmonary thromboembolism [PE] and Deep Vein Thrombosis [DVT])) and safety of GSK576428 as the initial treatment in subjects with acute PE in an open-label design.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy on the transplantation of autologous human cardiac-derived stem cells (hCSCs) with the controlled release of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to severe refractory heart failure patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy concordance with reduced left ventricular dysfunction (15%≦LVEF≦35%).
Pre-hospital intubation is often required in sub-optimal conditions, such as in patients lying on the ground. Direct laryngoscopy and intubation of a patient lying supine on the ground is difficult because the intubator's head is far above the head of the patient. It is thus tricky to align the intubator's visual axis with the patient's tracheal axis. The Airway Scope is a new laryngoscope designed to facilitate intubation without requiring alignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and tracheal axes. We thus tested the hypothesis that the intubation with the Airway Scope is faster than the Macintosh laryngoscope in subjects lying on the ground.
UMN-0501 is a purified recombinant influenza HA vaccine (A H5N1/Vietnam/1203/2004). The purpose of the present study is to evaluate immunogenicity, safety and optimal dose among three different doses of UMN-0501 following two same-dose vaccinations of UMN-0501 per patient with a 3 week interval between vaccination in healthy young adults. Immunogenicity will be confirmed by both microneutralization (MN) antibody and hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer levels in the serums of subjects after receiving different doses of UMN-0501. There will be three dose groups with 30 subjects per group for a total of 90 healthy young adults aged 20-40 years enrolled in this study.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the AdaptivCRT algorithm is at least as good as manual echo based optimization in regard to patient outcomes and cardiac performance
