Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis"

This is a comparative, open label, parallel group, non interventional study to further demonstrate the effectiveness and tolerability of Ectoin Allergy Nasal Spray. In addition the effectiveness and safety shall be compared to a Cromoglycid acid containing nasal spray. The patient applies Ectoin Allergy Nasal Spray or Cromoglycid acid containing nasal spray according to the instructions for use. The observation takes place over a period of 14 days. Response to treatment is recorded at day 7 and day 14 by the physician and by the patient in a dairy at defined time intervalls.

This clinical study will use the Environmental Exposure Unit (EEU) to generate allergic rhinitis symptoms in participants under controlled conditions, to collect well-characterized biological samples (urine and blood) before and after they develop these symptoms. The EEU provides the ability to control the timing, duration and levels of allergen exposure, and also other outside environmental factors, yielding ideal biologic samples for analysis with novel, cutting-edge molecular techniques. Results from the analysis of these unique allergic rhinitis samples should help determine if the technique of urine Nuclear Magnetic Resonance analysis could be a useful diagnostic tool in allergic rhinitis. IgE testing will be done on blood samples and compared to spin prick testing and symptoms of allergic rhinitis.

This is a prospective observational study , to clarity the characteristics of airway inflammation, airway reactivity and airway resistance in rhinitic children with or without asthma and to explore the possible predictors in the progression of allergic rhinitis to asthma.

The proposed study will evaluate the unmet therapy need in seasonal rhinitis by aiming to answer the following research questions What is the first prescription of the hay-fever season and how many of these patients are on some form of combination therapy? To what extent does initial therapy not meet clinical need (as measured by need for additional medical intervention in terms of consultations and changes in therapy)? Does treatment for allergic rhinitis differ for asthma Vs non-asthma and seasonal Vs perennial patients?

Observation study of patients with chronic rhinitis or chronic urticaria in Thailand

This post-marketing surveillance study (PMS) is conducted to collect safety and efficacy data among subjects with allergic rhinitis, urticaria, eczema, dermatitis, skin irritation, prurigo or pruritus cutaneous who have never been treated with levocetirizine tablets before.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the incidence of non-allergic rhinitis on a not selected group of young students (n=100-300). Students will be selected by public posting. In all students an allergy skin test will be performed. Then the local IgE of 24 subjects with non-allergic rhinitis will be compared to the local IgE of 24 subjects with allergic rhinitis and positive prick test to house dust mite. In addition 20 controlls will be investigated. Based on these investigations, the importance of local IgE and the IgE spectrum in conjunction with rhinitis should be further clarified.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the more efficient dose for the treatment of rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis against mite allergy

The purpose of this non interventional study (NIS) was to observe the efficacy of Pollinex® Quattro as a short-term revaccination in patients who have already been successfully desensitized at least five years ago against grass-pollen but developed a recurrent allergy.

Rhinovirus (RV) infections represent the most common cause of asthma exacerbations in children and adolescents. The investigators hypothesize that the immune responses generated in the nose of allergic rhinitics and asthmatics underlie subsequent systemic modulation of the immune system, and that - in susceptible individuals (i.e., those with pre-existing asthma) - this modified nasal milieu is responsible for the asthma exacerbation. Open label single center study in asthmatics as well as allergic rhinitis (AR) and healthy controls. All subjects will undergo good manufacturing practice (GMP) RV16 inoculation and responses will be compared between the 3 cohorts.
