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 open-label, randomized, parallel group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone or prednisone (CHOP) chemotherapy versus rituximab (MabThera/Rituxan) with CHOP in previously untreated participants with cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Participants will be randomized to receive either obinutuzumab 1000 milligrams (mg) intravenously (IV) every 21 days or rituximab 375 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) IV every 21 days for 8 cycles, in addition to 6-8 cycles of CHOP chemotherapy IV every 21 days. Participants randomized to the obinutuzumab arm will receive an additional two doses on Days 8 and 15 of Cycle 1. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dose, antitumor activity, safety and pharmacology of MEDI-575 in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel in subjects with previously untreated, advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The Aim of this study is to validate a treatment of anastrozole in combination with tegafur-uracil as pre-operative therapy for postmenopausal primary breast cancer. Although pre-operative hormone therapy is a novel therapeutic approach, only hormone therapy has limitation in terms of efficacy. Metronomic chemotherapy, which is the frequent administration of low-dose cytotoxic agents, is not only target tumor cells but also inhibiting angiogenesis. Because there was a report that efficacy of hormone therapy add to metronomic chemotherapy as pre-operative therapy, a randomized phase II trial of anastrozole (ANA) in combination with/without metronomic tegafur-uracil (UFT) as neo-adjuvant for postmenopausal breast cancer will be conducted.
The objective of this study is to confirm superiority between a test treatment group using Endo GIA stapler with Duet Tissue Reinforcement System (TRS) and a current international standard of care group using a conventional stapler in patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy surgery, using a randomized comparative study of the frequency of intraoperative air leak.
The purpose of this long term extension study is to assess safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of ACC-001 with QS-21 adjuvant in Japanese subjects with mild to moderate AD who were randomized in the preceding P2 double blind studies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of inotuzumab ozogamicin plus rituximab in relapsed/refractory aggressive Non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients who are not candidates for intensive high-dose chemotherapy. Specifically, the goal is to demonstrate the superiority of this combination compared with an active comparator arm (investigator's choice of rituximab+bendamustine or rituximab+gemcitabine) using the primary endpoint of overall survival.
AMG 479 is an investigational fully human monoclonal antibody that targets type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R). Signaling through IGF-1R plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth and survival. Gemcitabine is administered on days 1, 8 and 15 of a 28 day cycle, AMG 479 or placebo is administered on days 1 and 15 of the 28 day cycle, both are administered intravenously. The primary purpose of the study is to determine if AMG 479 and gemcitabine improves overall survival as compared to placebo and gemcitabine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of intensive blood pressure control compared to standard blood pressure control on progression of coronary atherosclerosis by intravascular ultrasound in hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease.
The objective of this active-drug Extension Study is to evaluate the continuing safety and efficacy of ONO-4641 (MSC2430913A) in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in patients who have completed an initial 26-week study (ONO-4641POU006).
The primary purpose of this study is to help answer if LY2127399 is safe and effective during long-term treatment in participants with Rheumatoid Arthritis. This study is comprised of 2 periods: Period 1: Unblinded treatment for up to 240 weeks for participants who enroll from Study H9B-MC-BCDO (BCDO) (NCT01202760) or Study H9B-MC-BCDV (BCDV) (NCT01202773) or up to 168 weeks for participants who enroll from Study H9B-MC-BCDM (BCDM) (NCT01198002). Period 2: 48-week post-treatment follow-up
