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 is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham treatment controlled multicenter study.
The primary purpose of this study is to find out what the maximum tolerated dose is for an experimental drug called AZD7762 when given with the approved drug gemcitabine based on the side effects experienced by patients that receive both drugs.
Mesenchymal stem cells have the capability to differentiate into hepatocytes and will be useful for liver regeneration. Adipose tissue is relatively enriched with mesenchymal stem cells compared to bone marrow tissue. In this trial, eligible liver cirrhosis patients will receive autologous adipose tissue derived stromal cells which include such mesenchymal stem cells.
This was a four month dose ranging study followed by a 24 to 48 month extension at the selected dose to characterize the safety and efficacy of the injectable IL-1B (interleukin 1, beta) antagonist canakinumab in the treatment of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) already treated on maximum dose metformin.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of an investigational drug called SAM-531 at three dosage levels. Subjects will receive either one of the 3 dosage levels of SAM-531, donepezil or placebo for the first 24 weeks of the study (period I). Subjects who receive placebo for period I will be assigned to receive the highest dose of SAM-531 SAM-531 for the remaining 28 weeks of the study, while subjects who received one of the three SAM-531 dosage levels or donepezil in period I will continue with the same study drug (period II).
The primary aim of this study is to investigate if AZD1386 is efficacious as an analgesic in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee and at what dose. This will be done by comparing the effect of AZD1386 to placebo ("inactive substance") on pain.
This study is aimed to investigate whether treatment with Telmisartan is more effective than Candesartan in reducing the ischemic cardiovascular events in high-risk patients with cardiovascular disease.
This is a study in patients with chemotherapy induced anemia receiving multi-cycle chemotherapy for the treatment of stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that overall survival (OS) is not worse in participants on darbepoetin alfa treated to a hemoglobin ceiling of 12.0 g/dL compared to participants treated with placebo.
The purpose of this study is to assess the bleeding safety (the composite endpoint of major and clinically relevant non-major bleeding) of 2 doses of apixaban (2.5 mg BID and 5.0 mg BID) or placebo in combination with standard therapy (aspirin and /or additional antiplatelet therapy) over a 24 week treatment period in selected subjects with recent (≤7 days) acute coronary syndrome.
This research is being done to find out if Carboplatin and Taxane works better alone or when given with an experimental drug called MORAb-003(farletuzumab) in subjects with first platinum sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer.
