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 study's primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of retosiban to prolong pregnancy and improve neonatal outcomes compared with placebo. It is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter study and will be conducted in approximately 900 females, aged 12 to 45 years, with an uncomplicated, singleton pregnancy and intact membranes in preterm labor between 24^0/7 and 33^6/7 weeks of gestation. Eligible maternal subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either retosiban IV infusion or placebo IV infusion over 48 hours. If not previously administered, antenatal corticosteroid treatment should be administered as either (1) two 12-mg doses of betamethasone given intramuscularly 24 hours apart or (2) four 6-mg doses of betamethasone administered intramuscularly every 12 hours. A single rescue course of antenatal corticosteroids is permitted if the antecedent treatment was at least 7 days prior to study enrolment. Investigators have discretion to use a standardized regimen of magnesium sulphate, as well as intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis for perinatal group B streptococcal infection. Prior to randomization, each subject will be stratified by progesterone treatment and gestational age. The progesterone strata will consist of subjects on established progesterone therapy or subjects not on established progesterone therapy at Screening. The study will comprise 6 phases: Screening, Inpatient Randomized Treatment, Post Infusion Assessment, Delivery, Maternal Post-Delivery Assessment, and Neonatal Medical Review. The duration of any subject's (maternal or neonatal) participation in the study will be variable and dependent on gestational ages (GA) at study entry and the date of delivery.
Mepolizumab is a humanized immunoglobulin G (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) that exhibits dose proportional and time-independent pharmacokinetics. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Part A: it will be pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) study conducted to support the use of mepolizumab in children aged 6 to 11 years with severe eosinophilic asthma and characterize the PK/PD of mepolizumab 40 milligrams (mg) or 100 mg administered subcutaneously depending on participant body weight. Part B: It is a long-term safety / pharmacodynamic phase in which extended treatment for a further 52 weeks will be offered on an optional basis to those subjects eligible for continued treatment. Participants with bodyweight <40 kilogram (kg) will be dosed with mepolizumab 40 mg and participants with body weight >=40 kg will be dosed with mepolizumab 100 mg subcutaneously in upper arm or thigh at Visit 2 (Week 0). Approximately 40 male or female participants aged 6 to 11 years will be screened to achieve approximately 28 eligible participants entering the treatment phase to allow availability of 20 evaluable participants, with a minimum of six participants enrolled in the <40 kg bodyweight group. The total duration of the study will be 22 weeks and will include a run-in period of 1-2 weeks, a treatment period of 12 weeks and a follow-up phase of 8 weeks. A participant will be considered having completed the study if the participant completes all phases of the study including the follow-up phase (Week 20 [visit 8]).
To examine whether the occurrence of oral mucositis can be reduced by dental oral management in patients by comparing the use of dental oral management through instruction by dental and oral surgeons (dental oral management group) and an observation group (brushing instruction only group) in a randomized, controlled study in females that are using everolimus for estrogen receptor-positive, hormone therapy-resistant refractory breast cancer.
This is a retrospective study to evaluate the outcomes of endoscopic biliary drainage according to the timing of distal malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) in relation to gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) and the location of GOO.
The purpose of this study was to determine if intravitreal ranibizumab is superior to laser ablation therapy in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
A first-in-human sttudy using PCA062 in patients with p-CAD positive solid tumors.
Primary Objective: To document the long-term safety of sarilumab added to non-methotrexate (non-MTX) disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or as monotherapy. Secondary Objective: To document the long term efficacy of sarilumab added to non-MTX DMARDs or as monotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of food timing on pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD0585 and the effect of food timing on tolerability and safety of AZD0585 in healthy male Japanese subjects.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the bioequivalence of 2 tablets of SYR-472 25 milligram (mg) and 1 tablet of SYR-472 50 mg administered to healthy adult males.
The primary objective of the study is to clarify factors affecting the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients treated with HALAVEN. A total of 590 patients will be enrolled in this study with 295 patients in the treatment group of primary or secondary chemotherapy and 295 patients in the treatment group of tertiary or later chemotherapy.
