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 is open to adults with liver cirrhosis and high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat helps people with this condition. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of Avenciguat as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo as tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like Avenciguat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 8 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 14 times. At 3 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The change in blood pressure is then compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of two dosing regimens of oral edaravone in subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), based on the time from the randomization date in Study MT-1186-A02 to at least a 12-point decrease in Revised ALS Functional Rating Score (ALSFRS-R) or death, whichever happens first, over the course of the study or until oral edaravone is commercially available in that country
This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tolebrutinib compared with placebo in adult participants aged 18 to 85 years old with moderate-to-severe generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), who received Standard of Care (SoC). The double-blind (DB) treatment period of 26 weeks comprised of 7 site visits followed by a 2-year open label extension (OLE) period with quarterly visits. The efficacy of tolebrutinib versus placebo during the DB period was assessed by clinical evaluations, including scales based on physician examination or direct participant feedback i.e., patient reported outcomes (PROs). These evaluations continued during the OLE to measure long term efficacy and safety.
To provide more information on safety profile of VAXZEVRIA in Japanese subjects, specific drug use result study in subjects with underling disease at higher risk of worsening COVID-19 is planned as an additional pharmacovigilance plan. The present study aims to collect information on adverse drug reactions or COVID-19 infection after VAXZEVRIA vaccination and to evaluate the safety of this vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of parsaclisib compared with placebo in participants with Primary Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (wAIHA),
Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting condition causing inflammation that can affect any part of the gut. CD may cause tiredness, loose stools with or without bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss, and fever. This study evaluates how safe and effective ABBV-154 is in participants treated for moderately to severely active CD. Adverse events and change in the disease activity will be assessed. ABBV-154 is an investigational drug being evaluated for the treatment of CD. In the induction period, there is a 1 in 5 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Depending on the dose received in the induction period, there is a 1 in 2 or 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo in the maintenance period. Around 265 participants 18-75 years of age with moderately to severely active CD will be enrolled in the study at approximately 200 sites worldwide. The study is compromised of a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled induction period, followed by either a 12-week double-blind re-induction period for non-responders or a 40-week double-blind placebo-controlled maintenance period for responders. In the maintenance period, responders will be randomized to receive subcutaneous placebo or ABBV-154 in 2 different doses every other week. Participants in the placebo group who are initial responders will receive ABBV-154 in the maintenance period. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care due to study procedures. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of MT-2766 in Japanese adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (SZC), as adjunct to ACEi/ARB therapy (lisinopril or valsartan), on slowing CKD progression (assessed as the reduction in participant's glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] decline over time) in participants with hyperkalaemia or at high risk of hyperkalaemia.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics of ALXN1840 versus standard of care in pediatric participants with Wilson disease (WD).
Psoriasis is a chronic disease characterized by marked inflammation and thickening of the skin that results in thick, scaly skin plaques. This study assessed how safe and effective cedirogant (ABBV-157) was compared to placebo in adult participants with moderate to severe psoriasis. Efficacy and safety-related measurements assessed disease activity in participants with plaque psoriasis. Cedirogant (ABBV-157) is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of chronic plaque psoriasis. Participants were put into 1 of 4 groups, called treatment arms and each group received a different treatment. There was a 1 in 4 chance that participants were assigned to placebo. Participants received oral daily doses of cedirogant or placebo capsules for 16 weeks. There may have been a higher burden for participants in this study compared to usual standard of care. Participants attended regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment was checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
