“Basic principals on Global Clinical Trials”
6. When conducting an exploratory trial like a dose-finding study or a confirmatory trail as a global clinicaltrial, how is it appropriate to determine a sample sizeand a proportion of Japanese subjects?
A global trial should be designed so thatconsistency can be obtained between results fromthe entire population and the Japanese population,and by ensuring consistency of each region, it couldbe possible to appropriately extrapolate the resultof full population to each region.
