At Takeda, we believe that in order to achieve health equity, everyone must have an equitable opportunity to attain their full health potential.

We are working to achieve greater health equity for all communities regardless of social position, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or any other factors that impact health and access to healthcare.

To achieve greater health equity for all patients:

• We address health disparities and inequities that disproportionately impact underserved communities, including access to clinical trials.
• We are committed to creating diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture within Takeda, within our communities, and across our clinical trials
• Since June 2022, we have proactively required the development of Diversity Action Plans (DAPs) for all newly initiated clinical trials conducted in the US, regardless of phase, in preparation for the FDA’s DAP guidance.

The Takeda Find a Clinical Trial search tool is an easy-to-use method to locate Takeda-sponsored trials and provide searchability for plain language information on:

• A particular condition/disease
• Available clinical trials near a defined location
• Clinical trial entry criteria and design elements
• Summary of study results

To promote the diversity of clinical trial populations and to demonstrate respect for patients’ multilingual backgrounds and preferences, translation options are available using the translation tool at this website. Translation is also offered on an individual study basis.

For those with disabilities, accessibility adjustments are available using the adjustment tool o icon on the website.

Since 2002, Takeda has been registering and disclosing clinical trial protocol information for company-sponsored research on clinicaltrials.gov as well as other public registries and websites in compliance with industry standards and applicable regulations.

Regulations and industry guidelines are met or exceeded through the registration of:

• Interventional Phase 1 - 4 clinical trials.
• Applicable non-interventional clinical trials – including real world evidence and studies of health economics and cost effectiveness.

Clinical trial protocol information is available on this website. Detailed information on clinical trials is also available in different languages using the translation tool .

Takeda posts the results of our clinical trials on all applicable public registries and websites in compliance with applicable regulations and industry standards, regardless of the trial outcome or where it might take place.

This includes results of Takeda-sponsored clinical trials for:

• Unapproved treatments and unapproved uses of approved treatments.
• Interventional Phase 2 - 4 clinical trials.
• Other types of interventional and non-interventional clinical trials (including, eg phase 1, real world evidence, health economic and cost effectiveness studies) even if not required by regulations/requirements.

Clinical trial summary results are available on this website.

Takeda supplements the summary information posted on public registries with redacted synopses of clinical study reports, which are available to patients and the public on this website.

Redacted and anonymized full Clinical Study Reports (CSRs) for clinical trials on products covered in a Clinical Trials Application and approved in the EU are accessible on the EMA Clinical Data Website. For products that received a final regulatory decision by Health Canada, the redacted and anonymized CSRs are accessible on the Health Canada Website.

Takeda has created (since 2014) easy-to-understand plain language summaries that describe the design of each study and explain the objectives and results. These are provided in clear language that is intended to be understood by people without medical training.

These are made available not only to patients, but also to the general public on this website.

Takeda is committed to making every effort to submit manuscripts describing results of Takeda-sponsored phase 2–4 interventional clinical trials within 18 months after clinical trial completion (for marketed products), regulatory approval in a major market (for investigational assets), or the decision to discontinue clinical development of investigational medicines.

All manuscripts resulting from Takeda-sponsored research are submitted to journals that offer public availability via Open Access.

As ethical stewards of patient data, Takeda uses stringent safeguards to minimize the risk of study participant re-identification for all manuscripts, thereby ensuring that the data presented in our scientific publications is secure and untraceable. Find more details here.

Access to scientific publications on Takeda-sponsored clinical trials is possible using this website via clinicaltrials.gov, where links to articles in scientific journals are available.

Access to clinical trial data is important for the advancement of medical science. Takeda is committed to responsible sharing of information related to approved medicines with qualified researchers. This includes:

• Patient-level clinical trial data (anonymized information collected about individual participants during a clinical trial).
• Clinical trial documents, such as clinical study reports, protocols, statistical analysis plans.

Takeda also shares data from clinical trials for which the clinical development program has been terminated.

Takeda’s patient-level data-sharing policy provides qualified researchers access to data and supporting clinical trial documentation from Takeda-sponsored:

• Phase 1 - 4 interventional clinical trials for commercially available products that received initial marketing approval in 2005 or thereafter (or products whose clinical development was terminated in 2014 or thereafter) in applicable regions (generally in US and/or EU, and Japan-only)
• Phase 2 and 3 interventional studies for approved Takeda compounds.

Takeda is committed to sharing patient-level data within 18 months following completion of the clinical trial or 6 months following EU/US approval or Japanese approval (when EU or US approval was not sought), whichever is the later date.

As an ethical steward of patient data, Takeda shares the data in a way that protects privacy. Takeda primarily shares patient-level data via Vivli. Vivli is a global data-sharing and analytics platform that provides researchers access to clinical studies across numerous disease areas in an anonymized, protected format.

Requests from qualified researchers through Vivli are rigorously reviewed, and access is provided in a secure, cloud-based environment.
