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 purpose of the ISCHEMIA trial is to determine the best management strategy for higher-risk patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD). This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial with 5179 randomized participants with moderate or severe ischemia on stress testing. A blinded coronary computed tomography angiogram (CCTA) was performed in most participants with eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2 to identify and exclude participants with either significant unprotected left main disease (≥50% stenosis) or those without obstructive CAD (<50% stenosis in all major coronary arteries). Of 8518 participants enrolled, those that had insufficient ischemia, ineligible anatomy demonstrated on CCTA or another exclusion criterion, did not go on to randomization. Eligible participants were then assigned at random to a routine invasive strategy (INV) with cardiac catheterization followed by revascularization, if feasible, plus optimal medical therapy (OMT) or to a conservative strategy (CON) of OMT, with cardiac catheterization and revascularization reserved for those who fail OMT. SPECIFIC AIMS A. Primary Aim The primary aim of the ISCHEMIA trial is to determine whether an initial invasive strategy of cardiac catheterization followed by optimal revascularization, if feasible, in addition to OMT, will reduce the primary composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, resuscitated cardiac arrest, or hospitalization for unstable angina or heart failure in participants with SIHD and moderate or severe ischemia over an average follow-up of approximately 3.5 years compared with an initial conservative strategy of OMT alone with catheterization reserved for failure of OMT. B. Secondary Aims Secondary aims are to determine whether an initial invasive strategy compared to a conservative strategy will improve: 1) the composite of CV death or MI; 2) angina symptoms and quality of life, as assessed by the Seattle Angina Questionnaire; 3) all-cause mortality; 4) net clinical benefit assessed by including stroke in the primary and secondary composite endpoints; and 5) individual components of the composite endpoints.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of OPC-12759 ophthalmic solution in healthy subjects.
This study is an open label, long-term extension study for subjects with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis designed to evaluate long term therapy of CP-690,550.
The study hypothesis is to establish the safety and tolerability of long-term open-label (OL) CP-690,550 therapy in subjects with Crohn's disease.
This study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Inhaled Iloprost (Ventavis) therapy in Japanese pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients in Main Treatment Phase (12 weeks) and to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of longterm Inhaled Iloprost (Ventavis) therapy in Japanese PAH patients in Extension Phase.
In this study, MEK162 will be administered to Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors whose disease has progressed despite standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists. The trial will investigate the safety and tolerability and determine the MTD of MEK162 in Japanese patients.
This will be a 2-week oral dose study of PF 04991532, performed in patients with type 2 diabetes. Safety, pharmacokinetics (how the drug is distributed in the body), and pharmacodynamics (how the drug works in the body) will be studied. Patients may be asked to wash off their diabetes medication for 4-6 prior to study drug administration, and they will remain in the clinical research unit for a total of 20 days for baseline tests, 2 weeks of dosing, and some follow up tests.
This is a Phase 2b, outpatient, randomized, double-blinded (with a single-blind extension), placebo-controlled, dose-ranging, parallel-group study of baricitinib (LY3009104) in Japanese participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on background methotrexate (MTX) therapy. Baricitinib will be orally administered once a day with background methotrexate [6 to 16 milligrams (mg)/week] therapy for 12 weeks in the double-blind treatment period (1, 2, 4 or 8 mg/day, or placebo), and for 52 weeks in the single-blind extension period (4 or 8 mg/day).
The purpose of this study is to compare the combination of pemetrexed and gefitinib versus gefitinib alone, in terms of progression-free survival. This study is in participants who have stage IV non squamous NSCLC with activating epidermal growth factor mutations and who have not had any previous chemotherapy for stage IV disease.
The purpose of this study is: - To compare blood glucose (blood sugar) control on LY2605541 with insulin glargine after 26 weeks of treatment. - To compare the rate of night time hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) on LY2605541 with insulin glargine during 26 weeks of treatment. - To compare the number of participants on LY2605541 reaching blood glucose targets without hypoglycemia episodes at night to those taking insulin glargine after 26 weeks of treatment. - To compare the rate of hypoglycemia over a 24-hour period on LY2605541 with insulin glargine during 26 weeks of treatment.
