Filter by:This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III clinical study aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of CM310 in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis, and observing the quality of life, PK, PD characteristics, and immunogenicity of subjects.
Allergic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis (AR) and atopic dermatitis affect more than 25% of the world population and are the leading cause of illness in children. The complex interplay between genetic, environmental and immunological risk factors results in the manifestation of allergic diseases . The pathological presentation of allergic disease involves the activation of both the innate and adaptive immune systems, resulting in a multifaceted response in specific target tissues such as the airways . This response results in the recruitment of inflammatory cells to target tissues and the production of specific IgE antibodies, cytokines and other inflammatory mediators [11], [12]. It is well established that allergic inflammation triggers neuronal dysfunction, which activates specific inflammatory mechanisms, potentially leading to structural changes in the diseased tissue . Neurotrophins are a family of structurally related proteins initially discovered to be involved in regulating neuronal development and now known to govern both peripheral and central nerve growth. BDNF is a secretory protein belonging to the neurotrophin family and is involved in a range of neural processes during human development [19], [20]. In the early stages of development BDNF is essential for neurogenesis, survival and maturation of neuronal pathways. In the adult, alongside neurotransmitters, hormones and other neurotrophins, BDNF maintains synaptic plasticity, dendritic growth and the consolidation of long-term memory. The biological effect of BDNF is mediated via its binding to the trkB receptor. The activation of these receptors on eosinophils may be important in regulating the inflammatory cascade leading to allergic disease [15], [24]. Neurotrophin mediated activation of bronchial eosinophils might therefore play a role in the regulation of eosinophilic inflammation in allergic asthma . The BDNF gene is located on chromosome 11p13 and is alternatively spliced resulting in several different transcripts [26]. Genetic polymorphisms in BDNF have been associated with allergic phenotypes such atopic dermatitis [27] and asthma [28], [29], [30], [31] in different populations. The functional polymorphism rs6265 (Val66Met) has been shown to regulate intracellular trafficking and affect the secretion of BDNF [32]. Nerve growth factor (NGF), a neurotrophin that is expressed in the glandular, nasal epithelium, and peripheral nerves in the nasal mucosa, has been shown to induce biochemical and structural changes in nerves that can lead to hyper-responsiveness [33], [34], [35] The biological effects of neurotrophins are mediated by binding either to the high-affinity tyrosine kinase (trk) receptors or to the low-affinity receptors known as pan-neurotrophin receptor p-75.
The combined use of dexamethasone and oxymetazoline has a vasoconstrictive, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effect when applied topically in diseases of the upper respiratory tract. The main goal of this research is Evaluation of the effectiveness of Dospray® nasal spray in the treatment of persistent allergic rhinitis. The study will involve 126 patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis: 1. Patients taking Dospray = 63 2. Patients on other alternative treatment = 63 Duration of Patient Participation - 7-10 days (duration of treatment for an individual patient).
The study will assess the the burden of living with allergic rhinitis (AR) and the effect of AR on school performance for children and adolescents in Denmark.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of exercise at different temperatures on nasal blood flow and symptoms in allergic rhinitis patients.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the agreement between sensors analyzing algorithm and body plethysmography in measuring oral and nasal breathing in healthy adults, and in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is the algorithm-based method accurate enough in analyzing respiratory obstruction as compared to body plethysmography (reference method)? Participants will perform a short breathing protocol (oral and nasal breathing with different masks) during which time their breathing is monitored with both methods.
The purpose of this study was to determine the acute effect of high intensity interval exercise on respiratory function and rhinitis symptoms in allergic rhinitis patients.
At present, most studies mainly focussed on severe patients, and there was no comparison of symptom differences between AR patients and healthy people with mild infection to evaluate the symptoms of AR patients during infection and to provide preventive treatment in advance. So this experiment was designed.
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a disorder that affects more than 500 million people worldwide. Nasal congestion is one of the most general and bothersome symptoms in rhinitis, which affects the quality of life (QOL). Current medications are undesirable due to their side-effects. Acupuncture for AR in general can be considered as safe and can be seen as a potential therapeutic intervention for nasal congestion. Evidence supported that acupuncture is clinically used for signs and symptoms of nose disorders, such as nasal congestion, with effectiveness, but whether acupuncture has immediate, post-treatment and long-term effects on nasal congestion in AR is not verified by strictly designed clinical study. The ANCAR trial uses a standard treatment protocol with a fixed set of acupuncture points - to be as scientific as possible from Western medical viewpoint - to open the nose and affect underlying energetic imbalance and immunity at the same time, to maintain its nose opening effect. This novel acupuncture treatment protocol can be seen as a solid and profound approach from which every AR patient may benefit.
Patients with perennial allergic rhinitis whose symptoms are not controlled (visual analogue scale [VAS] ≥5) by 2-week treatment with intranasal corticosteroid will receive concomitant intranasal antihistamine and corticosteroid for 2 weeks. After 2-week treatment, changes in clinical parameters including VAS, total nasal symptom score (TNSS), total ocular symptom score (TOSS), rhinoconjunctivitis quality-of-life questionnaires (RQLQ) will be evaluated.
