DDrare

Information about drug development for rare and intractable diseases

What is DDrare?

DDrare is a database that provides information on drugs in clinical trials, and
drug target genes and pathways, related to the intractable diseases (mostly rare diseases)
designated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW), Japan.

Features

Information of Drug Development extracted from Clinical Trials

Drugs are extracted from clinical trials for the intractable diseases (mostly rare diseases) designated by MHLW, Japan.

Clinical Trials for Rare Diseases in the World’s Four Major Registries

Comprehensive information is available from the four major clinical trial registries of Japan, US, EU and China.

Cross-Reference information for Drug Development

Among Diseases, Drugs, and Target Genes/Pathways, cross-reference is available for target discovery in drug development.
