There are about 212 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Qatar. 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 study is a prospective, company-sponsored, non-interventional cohort study of up to 5000 patients in European countries and countries in Middle East who are newly prescribed any available OC. Patients will be followed up approximately 6 months after initial visit. Selection of Study Population: Women can be enrolled after decision for treatment with Yasmin or any other OC has been made. Physicians should consult the full prescribing information for the respective OC before enrolling patients and familiarize themselves with the safety information in the product package label.
The aim of this international prospective, non-interventional post-marketing surveillance study is to obtain data on treatment procedures, long-term safety and efficacy and patient acceptance of KOGENATE Bayer in treatment of patients with haemophilia A under daily-life treatment conditions.
In this international non-interventional study safety and clinical data concerning the treatment of patients suffering from Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) will be collected.
This protocol is designed to collect a small amount of blood and tissue from individuals with prostate cancer for extraction of DNA (genetic material) for the study of the genetic basis of prostate cancer. The study population will include individuals with known prostate cancer and controls without prostate cancer. The study will be conducted in Doha, Qatar at the Hamad Medical Corporation and Weill Cornell Medical College (Qatar). Individuals in the study population will be of Arab descent from Qatar. In this protocol, researchers will survey epidemiologic factors and medical records of patients with prostate cancer in order to study the clinical characteristics of these individuals. The researchers will collect blood and tissue samples to evaluate the genetic characteristics of individuals with prostate cancer. The researchers will also collect blood samples of individuals without prostate cancer to serve as a control. The goal will be to identify genes that are associated with prostate cancer and gene profiles that are associated with differing prognoses in individuals who have prostate cancer.
Primary objective : To evaluate the efficacy (in terms of change in HbA1c readings starting from baseline then after 13 weeks & at the end of the study which will be after 26 weeks) in subjects with type I diabetes mellitus. Secondary objective : - Recording the average daily dose of both insulin Glulisine & insulin Glargine in type I DM. - Recording adverse events.
The purpose of this protocol is to obtain biologic samples from the blood and lungs from patients with lung diseases in order to study the causes and indications of these disorders, learn how these lung disease manifest and progress, and how the lung disease can be treated.
This is a research study where researchers are collecting blood to evaluate the genetic characteristics of individuals with chronic lung diseases, including asthma, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, and lung cancer. The investigators hope to be able to identify an association between a genetic make-up in the blood samples and the risks of developing a particular lung disease, or severity of a lung disease. The findings of this study might be important to develop future preventative methods and potential treatments for the management of lung disease.
To assess the efficacy of Di-valproate in Bipolar I patients suffering from a manic episode according to DSM IV (APA 1994) over a 12 weeks period of treatment. To evaluate the clinical safety of Di-valproate.
The machines and oxygen used to help very premature babies breathe can have side-effects, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Infants with BPD get more complications (a higher death rate, a longer time in intensive care and on assisted ventilation, more hospital readmissions in the first year of life, and more learning problems) than infants who do not develop BPD. Doctors try to remove the tube in the wind-pipe that links the baby to the breathing machine as soon as possible. However, small babies get tired, and still require help to breathe. One of the standard and common techniques to help them breathe without a tube in the wind-pipe is to use simple pressure support, nasal continuous positive airway pressure or nCPAP. This supports breathing a little, but it is often not enough to prevent the need to go back on the breathing machine. Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is similar to nCPAP, but also gives some breaths, or extra support, to babies through a small tube in the nose. NIPPV is safe and effective, and already in use as an alternate "standard" therapy. The main research question: After being weaned from the breathing machine, is NIPPV better than nCPAP in preventing BPD in premature babies weighing 999 grams or less at birth?
The purpose of the Optimize RV study is to determine the long-term effect of selective site pacing. Selective site pacing refers to which area of the right ventricle the lead is placed. The goal of select site pacing is to improve how the heart contracts when paced in the ventricle. By pacing in select sites, it is possible to better copy the natural pattern of contraction of the heart.
