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.
Nicorandil is potentially effective to prevent cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) receiving hemodialysis. The purpose of this study is to prospectively investigate whether nicorandil is effective in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with CAD on hemodialysis.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eribulin mesylate in subjects with soft tissue sarcoma who received at least one standard chemotherapy (an anthracycline or an ifosfamide monotherapy or a combination therapy).
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of a capsular tension ring (CTR) in preventing anterior capsule shrinkage after cataract surgery in exfoliation syndrome (XFS) with no zonular weakness. The eyes with XFS undergo phacoemulsification and aspiration (PEA) with an intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. All operations are performed by a single surgeon. No eyes with either ectopia lentis or phacodonesis are included. There are three groups; CTR is not used in group A, CTR is simply implanted in group B, and CTR is implanted and closed by tying both eyelets in group C. The areas of continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) are calculated, and both the time-course change and the comparison among the 3 groups are tested.
The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Capecitabine/Cisplatin for gastric cancer patients who relapsed after adjuvant chemotherapy by S-1.
The aim of this study is to elucidate the efficacy and safety of XP and SP for first-line treatment of Advanced Gastric Cancer.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm study will assess the safety and efficacy of pertuzumab in addition to chemotherapy plus trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy in participants with operable HER2-positive primary breast cancer. This study will be carried out in collaboration with the Breast International Group (BIG).
RATIONALE: It is not yet know whether higher per daily radiation therapy is equally as effective as standard per daily radiation therapy in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial studies how well an accelerated course of higher per daily radiation therapy with concomitant boost works compared to standard per daily radiation therapy with a sequential boost in treating patients with early-stage breast cancer that was removed by surgery.
An open-label, non-randomised, uncontrolled, proof-of-concept study of patients with HTLV-I-associated myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Participants will receive oral administration of tamibarotene in the amount of 2 mg daily over a period of 12 weeks, then 4mg daily for another 12 weeks. The patients will be followed up for further 8 weeks. Efficacy will be monitored by measuring clinical scores including motor and urination function, HTLV-1 proviral load, immunological parameters, and markers in the spinal fluid. Safety will be evaluated at the same time.
The primary objective of this clinical study is to determine whether the Innova Stent System shows acceptable performance in long-term (12-month) safety rates and vessel patency when treating femoropopliteal lesions.
The purpuse of this study is to assess toxicities of angiogenic peptide vaccine therapy with gemcitabine in treating HLA-A*0201 restricted patient with non-resectable pancreatic cancer.
