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 aims to investigate the effect of supplement containing L-arabinose and indigestible dextrin on body mass index, body fat mass, abdominal circumference, visceral fat mass, and serum biochemical parameters in overweight subjects.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of RAD001 monotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer which has progressed after one or two lines of prior chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether neratinib can further reduce the risk of recurrence from previously diagnosed HER-2 positive breast cancer after adjuvant treatment with trastuzumab.
Pneumonia is the fourth leading cause of death and frequently occurs in institutionalized elderly people in Japan. Recently, several clinical and experimental studies have reported the importance of vitamin D in the regulation of immune functions and its deficiency is associated with susceptibility to some infections. In the present study, the investigators hypothesize that deficiency of serum vitamin D is associated with development of pneumonia, and supplementation of vitamin D may lower the incidence of pneumonia and prolong survival in institutionalized elderly subjects.
The purpose of this study is to determine the antioxidant supplementation effect on accommodation among visual display terminal (VDT) users.
This study is designed to collect long term safety data of indacaterol (300 µg o.d.) in Japanese patients with moderate to severe COPD. Data from this study will be used for the registration of indacaterol in Japan.
Dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and thienopyridines decreases the rate of stent thrombosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, despite intensified antiplatelet treatment, some of the patients undergoing PCI develop thrombotic stent occlusion, suggesting incomplete platelet inhibition due to thienopyridine resistance. The present study is designed in order to clarify the influence of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on the several biomarkers for platelet activation in Japanese patients treated with thienopyridines undergoing elective PCI.
To confirm the safety of BIBF 1120 at a dose level up to 200 mg x 2/day (i.e., overseas recommended Phase III dose for combination treatment) with standard therapy of docetaxel (60 mg/m2 and 75 mg/m2) in Japanese advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent after failure of first line chemotherapy and to determine the recommended dose for the Phase II trial.
The purpose of this Phase III study was to confirm the value of adding everolimus to weekly paclitaxel and trastuzumab as treatment of HER2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer.
To examine the efficacy and safety of aripiprazole versus placebo as an adjunctive therapy co-administered with either an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) in patients with major depressive disorder.
