Validation Of Preference Module Of Experience With Allergic Rhinitis Nasal Sprays Questionnaire...
RhinitisAllergic1 moreThe Protocol section needs to be updated using the following text "The main goal of the study was to validate the Preference Module of the EARNS-Q and to test the reliability using Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medicines (TSQM), a validated questionnaire for determining satisfaction among different treatment. The EARNS-Q is divided into 2 modules, an Experience Module and a Preference Module. The Experience Module includes 28 items, fourteen attribute rating items followed by fourteen importance weighing questions. The Preference Module includes the same items along with preference questions related to each item as well as a global preference question.
Role of the Central Nervous System in Allergic Rhinitis
House Dust Mite AllergyIn order to evaluate the effects a nasal provocation on the activation of different brain regions, the investigators want to set up a clinical trial investigating the short-term effects of a nasal histamine provocation in healthy volunteers and allergic patients while in supine position under the functional MRI device in order to visualize different brain regions.
Clinical Equivalence Study of Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray, 50 mcg/Actuation vs. Flonase in...
Seasonal Allergic RhinitisThis double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multi-site study has been designed to compare the safety and efficacy of a generic Fluticasone propionate Nasal Spray, 50 mcg (Teva Pharmaceuticals USA) to the FDA Reference Listed Drug, Flonase® (fluticasone propionate) 50 mcg nasal spray (GlaxoSmithKline), in the relief of the signs and symptoms of Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis. Additionally, both the test and reference formulations will be tested for superiority against a placebo nasal spray.
Mechanisms of Allergen Immunotherapy
Allergic RhinitisHay fever (seasonal allergic rhinitis) results from allergy to grass and tree pollen. The majority of affected individuals manage well with medication from the Pharmacy or from their general practitioner (GP), but for some severely affected people it severely impacts on quality of life. Less than 40% of those affected in UK general practice feel that these medications achieve good symptomatic control. Specific immunotherapy or desensitisation is the practice of administering small amounts of allergen to allergic patients in increasing doses. This treatment is highly effective in these patients and furthermore is truly disease-modifying, with benefits persisting long-term, even when the treatment has been completed. Desensitisation is a routine treatment in the UK, Europe and North America. The exact immune mechanisms that underlie this symptomatic improvement are not entirely clear. Dr Tarzi, Professor Frew and Professor Kern have recently developed new methods for the investigation of immune responses to allergens. These methods require relatively small blood samples and may provide useful information about how immunotherapy exerts its effects. In addition to improving the investigators basic understanding of this treatment, such knowledge may drive improvements in the treatment and could be useful for monitoring patients for response. The investigators study proposes to investigate changes in the immune responses to pollen allergens during immunotherapy. Blood will be taken just prior to the first immunotherapy injection and again just prior to the final injection. In this way the investigators will be able to compare the immune responses to pollen allergen before and after treatment.
Safety Study of 20,000 EU of Clinical Center Reference Endotoxin in Allergic Adults With and Without...
Mild Allergic RhinitisMild Allergic Rhinitis With Mild AsthmaEndotoxin is a component of outdoor air pollution, an air contaminant found in a number of different workplaces, and is even found in homes. The endotoxin used for this study is obtained from the National Institutes of Health, and is called "Clinical Center Reference Endotoxin", or CCRE. The purpose of this Phase 1 research study is to identify a dose of inhaled endotoxin that is safe (does not cause prolonged cough, shortness of breath or other problems), but causes changes in your sputum cell samples that the scientists can measure. Phase 1 research studies like this one are not intended to be a treatment, but are a scientific investigation. Eventually, with these types of studies we will be able to examine why some people are more sensitive to endotoxin. Scientists at other universities have found that while most people do not have a considerable lung response to endotoxin at doses as high as 60,000 EU (endotoxin units), a few respond to as little as a total dose of 4500 EU. Our study is designed to identify if using a dose of 20,000 EU causes changes in the lung cells but does not cause symptoms in our study subjects. In our previous studies in our lab, using an endotoxin from another source, we have used higher doses (15,000 EUs) in subjects with asthma with no major problems, and we have used 10,000 EUs of CCRE in subjects with allergies and asthma without problems. We have used 20,000 EUs of CCRE in healthy individuals with no major problems.

The Effects of Ectoin® Allergy Nasal Spray and Ectoin® Allergy Eye Drops Compared to Placebo
Allergic RhinitisAllergic ConjunctivitisThe primary objective of this study is to assess the relative efficacy of Ectoin® Allergy Eye Drops and Ectoine® Allergy Nasal Spray compared to placebo, by evaluating Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) and Total Ocular Symptom Score (TOSS). The secondary objectives are : To evaluate the relative efficacy of Ectoin® Allergy Eye Drops and Ectoin® Allergy Nasal Spray compared to placebo by evaluating Total Non Nasal Symptom Score (TNNSS), congestion symptom scores, red eye symptom scores, watery eye symptom scores, itchy eye symptom scores, and by evaluating the mean cross-sectional area (MCA) using acoustic rhinometry (AcR). To assess the change from baseline (post-EEC from pre-EEC) in inflammatory parameters of nasal secretions, comparing Ectoin® Allergy Eye Drops and Ectoin® Allergy Nasal Spray to placebo at each post-treatment visit.

Allergic RhinitisStudy design: Randomized, controlled, double-blind, parallel, multicentre multinational clinical trial, to show superiority of an active therapy as compared to a control therapy on intermittent or persistent Allergic Rhinitis. Primary objective: To show that a topical microemulsion is superior to a sterilized saline solution to prevent deterioration in the health related quality of life, in patients with intermittent or persistent allergic rhinitis due to sensitization to birch, olive tree or grass pollen. Secondary objectives To explore the effect of a topical microemulsion, as compared to a sterilized saline solution, for the prevention of nasal and ocular symptoms in patients with intermittent or persistent allergic rhinitis due to sensitization to birch, olive tree or grass pollen. To explore the effect of a topical microemulsion, as compared to a sterilized saline solution, in the utilization of symptomatic medications, in patients with intermittent or persistent allergic rhinitis due to sensitization to birch, olive tree or grass pollen. To assess the patient's satisfaction with a topical microemulsion treatment, as compared to a sterilized saline solution, in patients with intermittent or persistent allergic rhinitis due to sensitization to birch, olive tree or grass pollen. To assess the safety of a topical microemulsion, as compared to a sterilized saline solution, administered to patients with intermittent or persistent allergic rhinitis due to sensitization to birch, olive tree or grass pollen. This is a clinical investigation study of a Class 1 medical device product. This is a prospective study of an active medical device versus a control medical device. It was considered feasible to recruit 10 patients patients per center, and therefore the study should be conducted in 10 centers. To get treatment balance within each center, a total of 100 patients should be recruited.
