Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis"

The purpose of the study is to determine whether VAK694 when combined with subcutaneous immunotherapy leads to long term immune tolerance to allergen in individuals with seasonal allergic rhinitis.

This clinical research study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of two doses of an investigational medication (ciclesonide nasal aerosol) for the treatment of subjects with of seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). The study will consist of a Screening Period to confirm study eligibility, followed by a Single-Blind Placebo Run-in period to acclimate subjects to the proper use of the study medication and to assess the subject's severity of SAR symptoms, followed by a 2-week double-blind treatment period to assess the safety and effectiveness of the study medication when given to eligible subjects.

The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness and safety of desloratadine (Aerius) syrup in children with hayfever with or without asthma. Patients took desloratadine syrup once a day for 28 days. Once a week, the doctor measured the patient's hayfever symptoms. The doctor also rated how much relief the patient got from treatment and recorded any side effects.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ragweed sublingual tablet (SCH 39641/MK-3641) compared with placebo in participants with ragweed-induced rhinoconjunctivitis over a one-year period. It is expected that ragweed allergic participants on one of the active arms of the trial will have decreased allergic rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms and require less allergy rescue medications during ragweed pollen season.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind within the dose level, parallel group comparison of mometasone furoate nasal spray in subjects with perennial allergic rhinitis to examine the minimal effective dose, the recommended dose, and the dosing regimen.

6-month safety extension study in subjects who have completed Study 060-633 (NCT00953147). Evaluating the long-term safety of ciclesonide HFA nasal aerosol 160 μg administered once-daily in patients with Perennial Allergic Rhinitis.

Up to 40% of patients with asthma have allergic rhinitis and treatment of nasal airway inflammation with topical steroids improves the twitchiness of the airways (hyperresponsiveness) and overall asthma control. The use of inhaled corticosteroids reduces symptoms, severity of asthma attacks, improves quality of life, and reduces asthma related deaths. Similarly, treatment of rhinitis with nasal steroids reduces symptoms and improves quality of life. While there is evidence that combined treatment of the nose and the lungs with topical steroids improves symptoms and underlying inflammation, it is unclear whether such control can be achieved using a smaller dose of inhaled steroid in combination with nasal steroid. It is therefore the intention of this study to evaluate if combination steroid therapy (nose and lungs) has a steroid sparing effect in patients with asthma and rhinitis using sensitive markers of airway inflammation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of as-needed treatment with nasal carbon dioxide in patients with Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis symptoms.

Specific immunotherapy for subcutaneous application: Dose finding study to evaluate the correct dose. 4 concentrations of a birch pollen allergen extract are applied in this study. Duration of therapy 20 weeks. Primary criterion is the Conjunctival Provocation Test (CPT), i.e. comparison between treatment arms of increased amount of quantities of allergen to provoke a positive CPT at the end of treatment.

This multi-center, randomized, observer-blinded, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous doses of RO4989991 in patients with allergic rhinitis who are otherwise healthy. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2 weeks.
