Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis"

Allergic rhinitis (AR) in its seasonal and perennial form is a common allergic condition. The majority of allergic rhinitis sufferers report nasal (congestion, sneezing, itching and rhinorrhea) and ocular (redness, watery eyes, itching and burning) symptoms. The polymer Carragelose® is a unique broadly active anti-viral compound for treating respiratory diseases. Carragelose® is a sulfated polymer from red seaweed also widely used in the food industry and has GRAS status (FDA). The compound has a broad spectrum of anti-viral properties. Sprayed into the nose Carragelose® creates a protective layer in the nasal cavity which could prevent allergic rhinitis symptoms as well. This anti-allergic clinical performance compared to untreated subjects and to subjects treated with Vis Alpin® Alpensalz nasal spray should be demonstrated. No clinical data in humans have been generated with Callergin so far. Callergin nasal spray is a certified Class I medical device. The use of the nasal spray is associated with a very low risk for patients. Callergin is used to moisturize nasal mucosa and to support the treatment of rhinitis of any kind. Allergic subjects could benefit from the moisturizing protective layer on the nasal mucosa, which could prevent allergen attachment to the mucosa surface. This will be a prospective, controlled, double-blinded randomized three-way cross-over single site study in adult subjects (18 to 65 years) who demonstrate a grass pollen specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) reactivity and have a history of grass pollen induced allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without controlled asthma. In the cross-over setting two treatments, namely Callergin and Vis Alpin® Alpensalz will be evaluated compared to untreated subjects. The subjects will be treated with one puff (140 microliter) into each nostril. The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate an anti-allergic clinical performance of Callergin nasal spray compared to untreated subjects in grass pollen induced rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis. The evaluation will be based on the assessment of rhinitis symptoms during grass pollen challenge performed in the Vienna Challenge Chamber (environmental exposure chamber). Secondary objective of the trial is to demonstrate an anti-allergic clinical performance of Callergin nasal spray compared to subjects treated with Vis Alpin® Alpensalz nasal spray.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate how treatment with Kinetic Oscillation Stimulation (KOS) in the nasal cavity in patients with non-allergic rhinitis can be optimized to minimize any patient reported discomfort during treatment procedure.

The purpose of this study is evaluate the efficacy of a depigmented grass extract in the treatment of local allergic rhinitis.

Over 20 million Americans have allergic nasal symptoms including stuffiness, sneezing and a "runny" nose. AkPharma's Calcium Glycerophosphate used as a nasal spray wash is believed to improve these symptoms without side effects common to over the counter and prescription medication. It is hypothesized that Calcium Glycerophosphate will have a perceived improvement in breathing comfort.

The primary objective of the study was to examine the efficacy and safety of S-555739/cetirizine HCl compared with the individual components and placebo.

Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety of MEDI4212.

The aim of the study is to determine the optimal effective dose of SUBLIVAC FIX Phleum pratense based on reduction of upper airways reactivity after 5 months of treatment with different dosages of SUBLIVAC FIX Phleum pratense compared to placebo. Furthermore, safety and tolerability will be assessed by the number of related Adverse Events of different dosages of SUBLIVAC FIX Phleum pratense compared to placebo.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of two doses (6 Development Units [DU] and 12 DU) of MK-8237 sublingual tablets compared to Placebo in adolescents with house dust mite-induced allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis. The primary hypothesis is that at least one dose of MK-8237 sublingual tablet is safe and well-tolerated in adolescents with house dust mite-induced allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of MK-8237 (SCH 900237) in the treatment of House Dust Mite (HDM)-Induced Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis (AR/ARC) in children and adults. The primary hypothesis of this study is that administration of MK-8237, compared to placebo, results in significant reduction in the average total combined rhinitis score (TCRS).

Adherence to treatment is crucial to the efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy of allergic diseases. GRAZAX® is a registered drug in Europe, with established efficacy in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, which has to be taken daily by patients. This study was aimed to establish if a device with the characteristics of a mechanical dispenser (Memozax®) could improve adherence to treatment in subjects with hay fever due to allergy to grass
