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 will determine the efficacy and safety of RO4917838 in patients with schizophrenia who are stable on current antipsychotic treatment (olanzapine, que tiapine, risperidone, paliperidone or aripiprazole) with prominent negative or d isorganized thought symptoms. After a 4 week run in period on their current anti psychotic treatment, patients will be randomized to receive placebo 10mg, 30mg, or 60mg of RO4917838 once daily, p.o., as add-on therapy. The anticipated time o n study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individual s.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Nitroglycerin may help carboplatin and paclitaxel work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. PURPOSE: This phase II randomized trial is studying how well giving nitroglycerin together with paclitaxel and carboplatin works and compares it to giving paclitaxel and carboplatin alone in treating patients with previously untreated stage III or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
The survey is conducted to collect safety and effectiveness information on the use of Pramipexole for long time of period in daily clinical settings in Japan.
The study is designed to demonstrate that the combination of AG-013736 with either FOLFIRI or FOLFOX is superior to FOLFIRI or FOLFOX in combination with bevacizumab (Avastin) in delaying tumor progression in the second-line treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer after failure of an irinotecan or oxaliplatin-containing first-line regimen.
The primary objective of this investigation is to conduct a 12-week prospective survey in PD patients with depressive symptoms treated with BI Sifrol Tablets (hereinafter referred to as this drug) in the routine clinical settings to determine the following items related to the safety and efficacy. i.

Carperitide (alpha-human atrial natriuretic peptide) improves systemic hemodynamics in patients with heart failure through a vasodilatory action, a natriuretic action, and inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and has been widely-used in Japan. However, a paucity of report is available on the effects of carperitide on short and long-term prognosis in patients with both cardiac and renal failure. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of carperitide therapy on short and long-term prognosis in patients with both cardiac and renal failure, in comparison with standard therapy.
The survey is conducted to collect safety and effectiveness information targeting patients who have both Parkinson's disease and renal dysfunction treated with Pramipexole in the daily clinical settings in Japan.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD4877 on a weekly schedule in Japanese patients with advanced solid malignancies
The survey is conducted to collect safety and effectiveness information in Parkinson's Disease patients treated with Pramipexole without concomitant L-Dopa supplementation in the daily clinical settings in Japan.
Exenatide twice daily has been studied in Japanese type 2 diabetes patients. A once-weekly version of exenatide is currently being evaluated. Study GWBW is the first study of exenatide once weekly in Japanese patients. This study is designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of exenatide once weekly in Japanese patients and determine whether the dose selected for US and European development is appropriate for Japanese patients with Type 2 diabetes.
