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 objective of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, trough plasma concentration, and efficacy of pramipexole ER in comparison with those of pramipexole IR administrated orally for 12 weeks in patients with PD on levodopa (L-DOPA) therapy (the double-blind period). The double-blind period will be followed by the open-label 52 week administration of pramipexole ER to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy (the open-label period).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-1101 in patients scheduled for coronary angiography, in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multi-center study.
Once-daily inhaled glucocorticosteroids treatment can sufficiently control airway inflammation in asthma patients.
To demonstrate that a fixed-dose combination of telmisartan 40 mg plus amlodipine 5 mg is superior to amlodipine 5 mg alone in patients with essential hypertension and inadequately controlled with amlodipine 5 mg monotherapy.
This is a single-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy of BRL29060A (paroxetine hydrochloride hydrate, hereafter paroxetine) administered orally over the dose range of 20 mg to 50 mg once daily after supper for 12 weeks in Japanese patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as assessed by the change from baseline in CAPS-SX total score. Also the effect of paroxetine on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) induced by subthreshold emotional arousing (or symptom stimulating) tasks will be determined using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) for exploratory assessment of the correlation between the change in rCBF and the efficacy. The sample size is 30 subjects. The study period consists of 4 weeks of run-in phase, 12 weeks of treatment phase, 0-3 weeks of taper phase and follow-up examination at 2 weeks after the last dose, for a total of 18-21 weeks. Subjects will visit the clinic at the start of run-in phase, Week -2, the start of treatment phase, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 of treatment, and follow-up examination.
CC-5013-MM-017 is a Phase I, multicenter study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety profile, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of lenalidomide with and without dexamethasone in Japanese subjects with previously treated MM. The study will consist of two cohorts: 1) Monotherapy "Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) Determination" Cohort; and 2) "Combination Treatment" Cohort.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of long-term administration of GSK1325760A in patients with PAH. The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate long-term administration of GSK1325760A on: - Improvement in exercise capacity (six-minutes walk distance: 6MWD), change in WHO Functional Classification and time to clinical worsening of PAH - Change in the Borg Dyspnea Index (assessed immediately following the six-minute walk test [6MWT]) - Change in plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels - Cardiopulmonary hemodynamics parameters (as measured by echocardiography)
Enthuse M1 is a large phase III clinical trial studying the safety and efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in patients with hormone resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases. - This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can improve survival compared with placebo. - ZD4054(Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin A receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. - All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive existing standard prostate cancer treatments in addition to trial therapy. - Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan), and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to standard prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may slow the progression of the tumour. - No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between SIRS (Systemic inflammatory response syndrome) and the infection associated with the use of central venous catheters at Critical Care center in National Defense Medical College, Japan.
To assess the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) and overall safety of sunitinib when administered in combination with S-1 and Cisplatin in patients with advanced/metastatic gastric cancer.
