Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis, Allergic"

Dymista, a combined product containing the antihistamine azelastine and the intranasal steroid fluticasone, provides superior clinical efficacy to both fluticasone propionate and azelastine hydrochloride in the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis. The superiority of efficacy not only occurs at the initiation of treatment, but persists for its duration. The mechanism underlying the superior efficacy of Dymista is not known. This trial focuses on examining the effects of Dymista on the dynamics of the allergic response in man using nasal provocation with antigen. The investigators will study the relationship between symptoms, physiology, cells and mediators.

This is a randomized controlled trial to compare the compliance of allergic rhinitis patients towards intranasal steroids between those who use mobile daily alarm reminder and those who do not.

To evaluate the therapeutic equivalence of a test formulation of Azelastine hydrochloride and Fluticasone propionate Nasal Spray to the reference listed drug, Dymista™ Nasal Spray in the relief of the signs and symptoms of Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis.

This is a double-blind study with respect to the diluents used, with patients known to be allergic to the specific allergen tested. Three study sites will be involved, each testing one allergen (Cat, Mite, Timothy grass pollen). Subjects who are known to be allergic to the allergen in question will be tested with serial three-fold dilutions to determine the ID 50 and relative extract potency using the method described by Turkeltaub.

The purpose of this study is to measure the effects of allergens and/or diesel exhaust particles in the nose to learn more about allergic responses in individuals with cat allergic rhinitis.

The aim of the study was to evaluate if there were differences in oral findings between patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma and a control group of health people.

Questionnaire to measure and control the quality of life of patients with hay fever who are treated or were treated with Pollinex quattro

The investigators surveyed the prevalence of animal allergy and sensitization to animal allergen among participants in international symposium of Korean association for laboratory science (laboratory animal researchers) and companion animal exhibition (pet owner and pet-related industry workers).

"Studio Nava" is a National Study aiming to assess allergic rhinitis and asthma outcomes on Quality of Life and Quality of Sleep in adolescent patients by means of Web Survey. "Studio Nava" also proposes the innovative use of a web platform ("http://nava.ibim.cnr.it/") that contains all standardized tools (medical-healthcare web form, ACT, Asthma control test; PSQI, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; T5SS, Total Symptom Score; modified SIDRIA for adolescents; Rhinasthma; VAS scale), that will be available for the doctors after the registration to the web platform. Downloaded questionnaires will be delivered to case-patient, asking him/her to fill them during the waiting time of the visit.

The prevalence of allergic diseases (atopic dermatitis, asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis and food allergy) has increased dramatically in industrialized countries over the last 20-30 years. Allergic diseases are present especially in children and young adults, but all age groups are affected, with variations across countries and age. To propose new therapies, the investigators must first understand the physiopathology. Since their discovery the regulatory T cells have continued to be the subject of work to understand their role in maintaining immune homeostasis in the human body but also their involvement in autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, transplants of solid organs or fluids and allergic diseases. It was identified two broad classes of regulatory T cells: T cells = natural regulators acquisition of a phenotype and a regulatory function right out of the thymus ( CD25 + / CD127 + low / FoxP3 +). T cells induced regulators = acquisition of a phenotype and a regulatory function on the periphery depending on the cytokine micro-environment. Phenotypic characterization of these is less obvious and even more so than during the last ten years several induced regulatory T cell populations have been described ( eg, Tr1 ). A new subpopulation of T cells induced in patients with inflammatory bowel disease recently identified have a particular phenotype as bearing the CD4 and CD8 double marking with a regulatory phenotype. These regulatory T cells are also induced a specific of a commensal intestinal bacterium (Faecalibacterium prausnitzii). Regarding allergies, it has been widely demonstrated a relationship between changes of the intestinal microbiota and the occurrence of allergic diseases. The investigators would therefore propose a cross-sectional study, single-center, controlled, single blinded to study the role of T cells called double positive induced regulators DP8 to compare the frequency and the regulatory function of specific DP8 of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii in atopic dermatitis, asthma and allergic rhinitis compared to control samples.
