The process of applying for participation in clinical trials

The most distinctive service of us is to provide assistance in applying for clinical trials in Japan. The drugs in Japan need to pass three clinical trials before they are used to ensure that the therapy does not cause too much harm to the human body. At this time, volunteers are required to participate in the trials. Whether it is works or not, we have yet to know the results. So please think twice about the risks involved when participating. There are many national teaching hospitals in Japan that are carrying out clinical experiment programs. The sites and experimental treatments performed by each university will be different. All clinical experiments need to be reviewed by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and rigorously evaluated. Therefore, the specifications for the qualifications of volunteers must be complied with. You can refer to the clinical trial plans all over Japan in our blog, and you can have a better understanding of the status and purpose of the process. Please refer to other blog articles for further information on the qualifications for participation and the materials required for preparation. The chart below shows the application process using Kurume University as an example. It should be noted that participating in clinical trials requires full communication and consent with the current attending physician. In terms of the Kurume University application process, it is necessary for the physician to fill in the application form and provide relevant information such as patient diagnosis. In addition, patients can also ask other physicians for second advice, more information and consultation.
