About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Allergic Rhinitis

Eligibility Criteria

18 Days - 55 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Males and females between 18 and 55 years of age.
  2. History of grass and/or ragweed allergic rhinitis.
  3. Positive skin test to grass and/or ragweed antigen.
  4. Positive response to screening nasal challenge.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Physical signs or symptoms suggestive of renal, hepatic or cardiovascular disease.
  2. Pregnant or lactating women.
  3. Upper respiratory infection or sinusitis within 14 days of study start.
  4. Use of nasal steroids, antihistamines in the last 2 weeks.
  5. FEV1<80% of predicted at screening for subjects with history of mild asthma
  6. current smokers or recent ex-smokers
  7. Any social or medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude provision of informed consent, make participation in the study unsafe, complicate interpretation of study outcome data, or otherwise interfere with achieving the study objectives.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in Sneezing Symptom
Sneezes. The change is calculated by adding the number of sneezes following both antigen challenges minus twice the number of sneezes after the diluent challenge.
Change in Runny Nose Symptom
The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of runny nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of runny nose after the diluent challenge.
Change in Stuffy Nose Symptom
The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of stuffy nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of stuffy nose after the diluent challenge.
Change in Itching Symptom
The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of itchy nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of itchy nose after the diluent challenge.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Nasal Peak Inspiratory Flow Measurements
The value of nasal peak inspiratory flow. The change is calculated by adding the values of nasal peak inspiratory flow following both antigen challenges minus twice the value of nasal peak inspiratory flow after the diluent challenge.
Change in Nasal Peak Inspiratory Flow Measurements From Before to After Treatment
