Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess if a physical barrier, created by the nasal gel Nascum®- Plus, is able to prevent or minimize the induction of nasal symptoms during allergen challenge in the Fraunhofer Allergen Challenge Chamber (ACC). Furthermore, the effect on soluble and cellular inflammatory markers induced by the allergic reaction will be assessed. Nascum®-Plus contains no active pharmaceutical ingredient, only monographed pharmaceutical excipients.
The aim of this first-in-human phase I study is to assess the safety and tolerability of HAL-MRE1 subcutaneous immunotherapy in subjects suffering from ragweed pollen-induced allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without asthma. The study has 4 treatment groups: 1 placebo group and 3 groups treated with different doses of HAL-MRE1.
Intranasal corticosteroids are accepted as safe and effective first-line therapy for allergic rhinitis, especially in treatment of persistent symptoms. Budesonide, a non-halogenic glucocorticoid, is widely used in the management of inflammatory mucosal diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma and allergic rhinitis. It is a highly fat-soluble substance with low water solubility and is presented as dispersion in marketed nasal sprays, like Rhinocort aqua 64. The maximum therapeutic efficacy of Rhinocort aqua is obtained after an application period of 7 to 14 days. In Budesolv, the solubility of budesonide is considerably increased suggesting that the same therapeutic efficacy can be reached with a lower dose. Better bioavailability of the dissolved drug promise an earlier onset of therapeutic efficacy. The current trial is undertaken to demonstrate these two effects. Subjects suffering from grass pollen allergic rhinitis will be challenged with grass pollen in a challenge chamber. Allergic subjects will be treated with two actuations (50 μl) of respective study treatment into each nostril once daily for 8 days. The total daily budesonide dose will be 40 μg per subject for Budesolv 10 and 256 μg per subject for Rhinocort® aqua 64. The primary objective of the study is to show non-inferiority of Budesolv 10 to Rhinocort® aqua 64. On day 8 grass pollen allergic patients will be challenged with grass pollen over a period of 6 hours and subjective nasal symptoms (congestion, sneezing, itching, rhinorrhea) as well as objective symptoms (nasal airflow, nasal secretion) will be assessed every 15 minutes. The second objective of the trial is to demonstrate an early on-set of therapeutic efficacy of Budesolv 10 compared to Rhinocort aqua. On day 1, grass pollen allergic patients will be challenged with grass pollen allergen in the challenge chamber over a period of 6 hours. After 1 hour 45 minutes, patients will receive their first dosage of the respective nasal spray treatment. During the 6 hour grass pollen challenge, subjective and objective endpoints will be measured every 15 minutes. To eliminate an individual bias based on expectations, the effect and onset of action is also compared to the effects of a suitable placebo. The same set of study participants will receive all three interventions in three consecutive treatment periods.
To investigate the short-term effects of red light rhinophototherapy on nasal patency in patients with a clinical diagnosis of allergic rhinitis using both active anterior rhinomanometry and acoustic rhinometry.
Non-interventional study to investigate the safety and tolerability of allergy immunotherapy ACARIZAX® 12 SQ-HDM in real-life clinical practice in adults patients (>18 years) with house dust mite allergy over a period of 12 months.
A multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, observational registry to asses the results of the ClariFix(TM) device when used to ablate unwanted tissue in the nose of subjects with chronic rhinitis.
Evaluation of the Aerin Medical Device used for the treatment of chronic rhinitis
Pilot study on the association between allergic rhinitis and cognitive ability in 174 children aged 11-14 within the same year group at school in which 140 Allergic Rhinitis subjects and 34 non-Allergic Rhinitis subjects. Primary outcome measures include cognitive tests (Trait Making Test, Digit Span Test, Stroop Test, Chinese Auditory Verbal Learning Test, Verbal Fluency Test), so as to assess the cognitive ability of allergic rhinitis patients before and after treatment compared to a control group. Rhinitis Symptom Utility Index (RSUI) of patients will be the secondary outcome measured through questionnaires. Positive skin prick test and endoscopy examination (taking place in Prince of Wales hospital) will be required before the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis. The data will be analysed by the Multilevel models.
The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of yoga training on rhinitis symptoms and cytokines in allergic rhinitis patients. Twenty-seven allergic rhinitis patients, aged 18-45 year old, were randomized into 2 groups: control group (CON; n=14) and yoga group (YOG; n=13). The control group had normal life and the yoga group was required to complete protocol with yoga training for a period of 8 weeks, 60 minutes, 3 times a week. Physiological variables, lung function variables, allergic rhinitis symptoms variables, and cytokines level in nasal secretion variables were analyzed during pre-test and post-test. The dependent variables between pre-test and post-test were analyzed by a paired t-test. The dependent variables between groups were analyzed by independent t-test. One way repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare the variables among pre-test, after 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks. Differences were considered to be significant at p < 0.05.
TX-SMILE is an investigator-initiated, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of intra-lymphatic administration of an approved allergenic extract for the immunotherapy treatment of allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis due to pollen from the conifer Mountain Cedar.
