Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis"

Objectives: Allergic Rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem. 10-25% of population worldwide is affected by AR. Oral/intranasal H1-antihistamine, decongestants, leukotriene receptor antagonists, intranasal corticosteroids are the pillars in the management of AR.Materials and methods: Seventy patients with allergic rhinitis participated in a prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel, active controlled, comparative 4 week trial. The patients between age group of 18-65 years of either gender having moderate-severe intermittent or mild persistent allergic rhinitis were included. The study inclusion criteria required the subjects with Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) of 5 or higher. The patients were randomly divided into two treatment groups with montelukast-levocetrizine (10 mg and 5 mg) in one group and montelukast-fexofenadine (10 mg and 120 mg) in another group. TNSS parameter was the main effectiveness parameter.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of omalizumab compared with placebo, on top of SoC (anti-histamine and nasal corticosteroid) in adult and adolescent patients with severe Japanese cedar pollinosis, whose symptoms were inadequately controlled despite the current recommended therapies (nasal corticosteroids plus one or more medications out of anti-histamine, leukotriene receptor antagonist, or prostaglandin D2/thromboxane A2 receptor antagonist) in the previous 2 Japanese cedar pollen seasons.

This is a randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, phase 2, single center, proof-of-concept study which will evaluate the effect of a preparation of FDA approved allergens (PMA) used as a sub-cutaneously administered immunotherapy for the management of allergic rhinitis (perennial and seasonal).

To determine the effect of Montelukast in Asthma and Allergic rhinits patients

Study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GSP 301 NS compared to placebo NS and to individual monotherapies (comparators) as well as the efficacy of these monotherapies (comparators) versus placebo NS over 14 days of study treatment

The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 months of treatment with 300 IR of STG320 sublingual tablets compared with placebo in adults and adolescents with HDM-associated allergic rhinitis.

Single-center, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, efficacy and safety study using the Allergen BioCube (ABC).

Allergic rhinitis is a common illness suffered among US Veterans. There are medications that help relieve allergy symptoms, including nasal steroid sprays and antihistamines. Some patients have increase symptoms with exposure to their trigger, such as a grasses when combined with pollution due to oxidative stress from pollution. In this study, patients with allergic rhinitis to grass will be given broccoli sprout extract that contains an antioxidant sulforaphane do see if there is beneficial effect in these patients.

The study evaluates the safety and efficacy of intralymphatic allergen-specific immunotherapy given to adolescents and young adults who are allergic to grass or birch pollen and have mild or moderate asthma. Patients will be treated with three intralymphatic injections; 1000 SQ-U x3 with 4-5 weeks interval, or placebo with 4-5 weeks interval. The patients receiving treatment will be given a fourth injection one year after the initial injections. The study is conducted in collaboration between Professor Lars Olof Cardell (ENT), prof Gunilla Hedlin (Pediatrics) and prof Marianne van Hage (Immunology)".

Sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG)-acupuncture has been shown to exhibit distinct effects in treatment of nasal inflammatory disease. Investigators aimed to assess the effects of SPG acupuncture in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis. The randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial enrolled participants with seasonal allergic rhinitis. Participants will be randomly assigned to either active SPG-acupuncture group or sham-acupuncture group. All participants will be provided four times of acupuncture in 4 weeks, and then follow-up of 4 week. Primary trial outcomes are change in symptoms and change in need for medication. The primary outcomes will be measured in baseline, week1, week2, week3, week4, week 6 and week 8. Secondary outcomes include the changes in nasal patency (nasal airway resistance and nasal cavity volume), exhaled nasal nitric oxide.The investigators also evaluate change in neuropeptides (substance P, vasoactive intestinal peptide,neuropeptide Y) and inflammatory cytokines (interleukin(IL)-4, IL-5, IL-8, IL-17a, IL-22, IL-25, interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1, TGF-β2, TGF-β3,Chemokine, Eotaxin) in nasal secretions as secondary outcomes. The secondary outcomes will be measured in baseline, week1, week4 and week 8.
