The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) following administration of gabapentin in Japanese epileptic patients with renal impairment to confirm if there are any clinically relevant differences between the plasma gabapentin concentration simulated by population PK model, which was used for the evidence of the dose adjustment for the patients with renal impairment, and observed plasma gabapentin concentration.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and PK/PD of ocrelizumab at each dose in combination with methotrexate（MTX）in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The data from this study will also be compared with those from a clinical study of ocrelizumab in patients with active RA that was conducted in the U.S.

This study will confirm safety and tolerability and determine the MTD of BGT226 in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumor.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of sunitinib (Arm A), given at 37.5 mg orally once daily, compared to sorafenib (Arm B), given orally at 400 mg twice daily, in patients with inoperable liver cancer. A total number of 1200 patients will be enrolled, 600 on Arm A and 600 on Arm B. Study treatment may be adjusted based on patient tolerance. and will be given until disease progression, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or other withdrawal criteria are met. After discontinuation of study treatment, patients will be followed up in order to collect information on further antineoplastic therapy and survival.
