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 is a comparative, open label, parallel group, non interventional study to further demonstrate the effectiveness and tolerability of Ectoin® Rhinitis Nasal Spray. In addition the effectiveness and safety shall be compared to a Sinupret forte. The patient applies Ectoin® Rhinitis Nasal Spray or takes Sinupret forte 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 in daily by the patient in a dairy.

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.

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.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate development of allergic rhinitis in children with nonallergic rhinitis.

The purpose of this study is to collect information on unexpected adverse reactions (ADRs), how often ADRs occur, and factors that can affect the safety and effectiveness of Claritin (loratadine) when used in children. Patients will be observed while they are taking Claritin, and ADRs and symptom scores will be recorded. At the end of treatment, improvement in symptoms will be recorded. Post-marketing surveys are not considered applicable clinical trials and thus the results of this survey will not be posted at its conclusion. The results will be submitted to public health officials as required by applicable national and international laws.

Seasonal/perennial allergic rhinitis (SAR/PAR) is a common childhood illness. One of the leading therapies for the treatment of SAR/PAR is intranasally inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). One of the major long-term safety concerns is whether ICS interferes with normal growth in allergic rhinitis children. Recent evidence suggests that nasal ICS may cause decreased growth. However, the effect of nasal ICS on long-term growth and the attainment of final adult height is unknown. Another potential systemic adverse effect of ICS use is suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function. The primary hypothesis of this study is that triamcinolone acetonide aqueous nasal spray (TAA) will have no effect on measured adult height in relation to target adult height in children with allergic rhinitis.

The purpose of this study is to establish whether MRI scanning is a sensitive measure of the effects of existing drug treatments on nasal dimensions following challenge with intranasal allergen in subjects with hayfever. If successful this technique could be applied to increase confidence for internal decision making and ultimately may be used to assess how effective a new drug treatment is.

The objective of this study is to determine whether there is a relationship between interferon-gamma levels and the incidence of viral respiratory infections in allergic children treated with allergy immunotherapy as compared to those treated with standard medical care (nasal steroids, antihistamines) over a 1-year period. The hypotheses to be tested are 1) interferon-gamma levels will be significantly increased 3, 6, 9 and 12 months in allergic children treated with allergy immunotherapy as compared to those treated with standard medical care, 2) the incidence of viral respiratory infections will be reduced at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months in allergic children treated with allergy immunotherapy as compared to those treated with standard medical care.

In this study, investigators evaluated for the first time the diagnostic efficacy of abioSCOPE® versus Phadia Laboratory System as an aid in the diagnosis of allergic diseases. Investigators targetted the agreement between test results obtained in abioSCOPE® and a laboratory reference method (Phadia Laboratory System, ThermoFisher Scientific, Uppsala, Sweden), considered as a quasi-gold standard in IgE (immunoglobulin E) antibody assays. Investigators also reported the medical decision taken by a panel of allergy experts who had access to patient history, skin tests and IgE antibody assay, but blinded to the method used, i,e, the reference method or the abioSCOPE® .
