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 is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm observational non-interventional study (NIS), which will be conducted in various countries in the Middle East and India.
To maximise the accessibility and benefit of PARP inhibitors to eligible patients, it is essential to know the prevalence of HRD in women with advanced high-grade serous or endometrioid ovarian cancer. Presently, the prevalence data for HRD are available from selected geographies only and range from 31% to 50%. Furthermore, the risk factors associated with HRD and clinical characteristics of patients with HRD need exploration for region-specific differences. In the present study, we will estimate the region- and country-specific prevalence of HRD in women with stage III or IV high-grade serous or endometrioid ovarian, primary peritoneal, and/or fallopian tube cancer and associated risk factors with clinical characteristics in Asia-Pacific countries, Latin America, Africa, Russia, Australia, and Middle East countries. The findings of the study will help the oncologists in optimal patient selection and clinical decision-making for the first-line maintenance of patients with HGSOC
In Kuwait, the total number of COVID-19 confirmed cases exceeds 5000 patients. Risk factors of possible risk factors of confirmed COVID-19 infection that developed major organ dysfunction are not yet identified among patients in Kuwait. we aimed to describe the clinical characteristics of hospitalized symptomatic COVID-19 positive patients, assess possible risk factors of confirmed COVID-19 infection who developed major organ dysfunction, determine risk factors for renal dysfunction and their outcome and assess the response of critically ill patients to different therapeutic modalities.
A Multicenter Retrospective Study to understand the clinical characteristics, treatment pathway and resource utilization for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia A retrospective, multi-centre, observational study to describe disease characteristics, treatment patterns, treatment-related outcomes, and resource utilization for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients in multiple international regions
The age-related loss of muscle mass and function, sarcopenia, has several deleterious effects, such as a reduction in the quality of life and an increase in the incidence of falls, often leading to hospitalisation. The prevalence of sarcopenia is unclear but is estimated to be between 4.6 and 7.9% and the loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is accelerated in people with type 2 diabetes. With the percentage of older people and the percentage of people with type 2 diabetes predicted to rise in coming years it is crucial to develop therapies to increase muscle mass and function. Alterations in nutrition have also been suggested to be of therapeutic use in sarcopenia. Epidemiological data showed that the consumption of fatty fish is positively associated with muscle function in older population, indicating a potential role for long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCn-3 PUFA) in increasing muscle mass and function in older people. The aim of the current study, therefore, is to determine the effects of krill oil supplementation on muscle size and function in adults with muscle weakness and type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of the current study was to compare the visual performance after bilateral implantation of the Panoptix IOL , or the AT LISA IOL or Tecnis Symfony IOL . The focus was on intermediate vision, defocus curves, and contrast sensitivity.
phacoemulsification with insertion of EYHANCE IOL to improve near and intermediate vision
to evaluate the effect of intense pulsed light on resistant patients with Meibomian gland dysfunction
The standard of care for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma is radical chemoradiation(CRT).Recent advances in radiation techniques and supportive measures resulted in improvemnent of locoregional control and quality of life.However distant failure is still the main challenging reason of poor survival Addition of systemic therapy to concurrent CRT is widely used and accepted as an option to reduce these failures ,however selection of chemotherapy regimen and timing in relation to CRT is controversial. Doublet and triplet chemotherapy regimens using cisplatin and 5FU are throughly investigated in this setting.Inspite of significant improvement in disease free survival and overall survival they were poorly tolerated.Hence,minority of patients in the daily practice could tolerate those studied regimens as propsed. Recently, in multicenter randomized trial, Zhang and his group investigated gemcitabine and cisplatin as induction chemotherapy (ICT) added to CRT.It showed improvement in recurrence free survival and overall survival.More importantly 96.7% of the experimental arm completed the treatment protocol. This was further confirmed by an updated network of meta analysis by Bongiovanni et al.Again the question of "when" is still valid.Our proposal is to compare tolerable regimen in induction versus adjuvant settings.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease primarily affecting the axial skeleton. The most frequent axSpA symptom is chronic, often inflammatory back pain (IBP) that might be difficult to distinguish from other causes of chronic back pain (CBP). Many participants report persistent pain, including back pain, which impacts disease activity and quality of life including creating burdens such as sleep disturbance, social isolation, loss of productivity, as well as anxiety and depression. This study will assess the real-world effectiveness of upadacitinib on early and sustained pain control, and the association between pain and clinical/patient-reported outcomes in axSpA participants. Upadacitinib is being developed for the treatment of axSpA. Approximately 650 adult participants with active-axSpA will be enrolled across approximately 19 countries in Europe, North America, South America, and Asia-Pacific. Participants will receive oral upadacitinib tablets as prescribed by the physician prior to enrolling in this study in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization and professional and reimbursement guidelines with regards to dose, population and indication. Participants will be followed for 12 months. There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to usual standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
