Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis, Allergic"

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety of 2 different doses of the investigational use of an allergy medication (Astepro Nasal Spray) in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). This is an open-label study; that is, parent and child will know which group each is in.

This study will be a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, 3-way cross over design in allergic rhinitis subjects. Subjects will receive repeat doses of intra-nasal levocabastine for 7 days in each period and the duration of the study will be about 13 weeks. An Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC) will be used in this study. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the non-inferiority effect of 7 days treatment with levocabastine on nasal symptoms elicited by an EEC when administered once daily (QD) compared with twice daily (BID). Also study will be conducted to investigate the superiority of effect of 7 days treatment with levocabastine (QD and BID) on nasal symptoms elicited by an EEC in subjects compared to placebo.

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray (FFNS), that is FFNS with placebo in Chinese adult and adolescent subjects with Allergic Rhinitis as AR. There are 3 phases, 2 to14 day run in, 2 week treatment, and 3 to 5 day follow up. After run in period, at least 360 subjects with AR ( ages of 12yrs and 65yrs, inclusive) will be randomised to receive FFNS 110ug once daily or placebo for 2 weeks. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline of reflective total nasal symptom score (rTNSS) during treatment period, and the secondary endpoints include mean change from baseline in nasal finding scores by rhinoscopy at completion of study treatment, and severity of overall inference in activities of daily living. Safety measures include AE (Adverse Event) reports, ECGs (Electrocardiograph), physical exams, vital signs, and nasal exam. In addition, reflective total ocular symptom score (rTOSS) will be measured as an explorative endpoint, only in the specific AR (Allergic Rhinitis) patients with severe ocular symptoms.

This trial is a biomarker-based pilot study of the safety of Cockroach Subcutaneous Immunotherapy in Cockroach-sensitive Adults (SCITCO) who have a history of perennial allergic rhinitis, asthma, or both.

This is an efficacy study of bepotastine besilate nasal spray in seasonal allergic rhinitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of several doses of ragweed pollen allergen extract administered as sublingual tablets in subjects with allergic rhinitis to ragweed.

Recently, interest has increased in sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) for treating allergic rhinitis. It is often suggested that polysensitized patients might not benefit from specific immunotherapy as much as monosensitized patients, although further research on this subject is needed. This study compared the efficacy of SLIT with standardized house dust mite extract in mono- and polysensitized allergic rhinitis patients. Patients who were sensitized to house dust mites and treated with SLIT for house dust mites for at least 1 year between November 2007 and March 2010 were included. The mono-allergen sensitized group (Mgr) was defined as the patients who were sensitized to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Dp) or D. farinae (Df; n = 70). The poly-allergen sensitized group (Pgr) was defined as the patients who were simultaneously sensitized to house dust mites and other allergens (n = 64). A standardized extract of house dust mites was used for immunotherapy. Anti-allergic medication and the total nasal symptom score (TNSS), including rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal obstruction, and itchy nose, were evaluated before and 1 year after SLIT. This study enrolled 134 patients. The TNSS improved significantly after SLIT in both groups, while the change in the TNSS did not differ significantly between the groups. The anti-allergic medication scores also decreased significantly in both groups, but there was no significant difference between the groups. In polysensitized allergic rhinitis patients, SLIT for Dp/Df gave comparable improvements in both nasal symptoms and rescue medication scores to those in monosensitized patients, regardless of other positive allergens. SLIT for Dp/Df might be considered in polysensitized allergic rhinitis patients.

The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 671800 ED using three dose levels of BI 671800 ED (50 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg), administered twice daily compared to FP (fluticasone propionate) nasal 100 mcg per nostril qd in the morning or Montelukast 10 mg qd am given for 2 weeks in patients with SAR (seasonal allergic rhinitis) out of season using an environmental exposure chamber in patients known to be sensitive to the aero-allergen Dactylis glomerata.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the efficacy (% of change from baseline) of desloratadine to improve the nasal total symptom score of SAR to cypress pollen.
