There are about 188 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Kuwait. 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 prospective, multicountry, multicentre, non-interventional study plans to include patients who have undergone surgery for early-stage (IA to IIIB on the basis of pathologic criteria) non-squamous NSCLC up to 6 weeks prior to enrolment into the study. The main objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of EGFRm in patients with surgically resected early-stage (IA to IIIB) non-squamous NSCLC as there are limited data on its prevalence in this patient population.
Patients admitted to the ICU in a tertiary burn centre in Kuwait were analysed using multiple mortality prediction scores. The accuracy of these scores were compared to each other to ascertain which prediction modality provides the most accurate prognosis.
From this randomized controlled study, we aim to: A.Do do cardiovascular risk stratification of renal transplant recipients who are followed up in Hamed Al-Essa organ transplant center of Kuwait. B. To compare the effectiveness of a PCSK9 inhibitor plus maximum tolerated statin therapy vs. maximum tolerated statin therapy alone in the reduction of major cardiovascular events among renal transplant recipients with cardiovascular disease. C. To compare the effectiveness of a PCSK9 inhibitor plus maximum tolerated statin therapy vs. maximum tolerated statin therapy alone in terms of LDL-C-lowering, muscle symptoms, and quality of life. D. To compare patient adherence to the different treatment protocols.

Methods: Out of 2000 kidney transplant recipients in our center in Kuwait, collecting data was started for all COVID-19-positive kidney transplant recipients till August 2020. Clinical features, management details and both patient and graft outcomes were reported.
The aim of the COVI-PRONE Trial is to determine if early awake prone positioning in COVID-19 patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure; irrespective of the mode of oxygen delivery; reduces the need for invasive mechanical ventilation.
Prospective study comparing efficacy and safety of intravitreal aflibercept injection and panretinal photocoagulation to early vitrectomy for patients with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage.
Eligible subjects will be those age 18 years or more with mono-microbial blood stream infection caused by E. coli, Klebsiella species, Enterobacter species, Serratia species, Citrobacter species, or Proteus species, who have achieved adequate source control, are afebrile and hemodynamically stable for 48 hours or more and have received microbiologically active intravenous therapy for 3-5 days. The bloodstream isolate must be susceptible to amoxicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, fluoroquinolones, oral cephalosporins and/or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and the subject must be able to take oral medication directly or through a feeding tube. Exclusions criteria include allergy to all in-vitro active antimicrobials which are available in oral formulations, pregnancy, infective endocarditis, central nervous system infection, terminal illness with expected survival less than 14 days, absolute neutrophil count less than 1,000/ml and hematopoietic or solid organ transplantation within the preceding 90 days. Randomization will be stratified by urinary versus non-urinary source of bacteremia. The primary outcome is treatment failure at 90-days with 10% margin for non-inferiority in the 95% confidence interval around the difference in outcome between the two study groups.
This study investigates the effects of home-based resistance exercise training, compared to a control group, on body composition, muscle strength and glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. Half participants will be in the home-based exercise group and half in the control group.
