About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Single-Blind, Cross-Over, Multicenter Study to Validate the Preference Module of the Experience With Allergic Rhinitis Nasal Sprays Questionnaire (EARNS-Q) Administered to Adult Subjects With Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis During a Three-week Cross-over Study

The Protocol section needs to be updated using the following text "The main goal of the study was to validate the Preference Module of the EARNS-Q and to test the reliability using Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medicines (TSQM), a validated questionnaire for determining satisfaction among different treatment. The EARNS-Q is divided into 2 modules, an Experience Module and a Preference Module. The Experience Module includes 28 items, fourteen attribute rating items followed by fourteen importance weighing questions. The Preference Module includes the same items along with preference questions related to each item as well as a global preference question.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlations of Experience With Allergic Rhinitis Nasal Sprays Questionnaire (EARNS-Q) Preference Module With Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medicines (TSQM) Change Scores and Change in Mean Daily Reflective Total Nasal Symptom (rTNSS) Scores

    EARNS-Q Preference Module consists of efficacy, sensory perception (SP), device characteristic (DC), spray delivery (SD), overall product preference (OPP) and total domain. TSQM consists of global satisfaction (GS), convenience, effectiveness and side-effects (SE) domains. Positive (+ve) correlation of EARNS-Q preference scores with change on TSQM domains indicate that preference for a product is associated with better TSQM scores. Negative (-ve) correlation with mean daily rTNSS indicate that preference for a product is associated with lower mean daily rTNSS. Change in TSQM domain scores and mean daily rTNSS was calculated as scores in Treatment Period (TP) 2 minus scores in TP1; change in TSQM is +ve, product in TP2 is preferred, vice-versa; change in rTNSS is -ve, product administered in TP2 is preferred, vice-versa.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 23

  2. Correlation of EARNS-Q Preference Module With EARNS-Q Experience Module Change Scores

    The 28 items of the EARNS-Q experience module assess 14 attributes with regard to their product rating and their importance of efficacy, SP, DC and SD. The EARNS-Q preference module consists of additional 15 items that evaluate preference by comparing two products based on the same 14 experience attributes as well as on OPP. Change in EARNS-Q Experience Module domain scores was calculated as scores in TP2 minus scores in TP1. If the change in EARNS-Q Experience Module domain scores is +ve, product in TP2 is preferred and vice-versa. A higher product rating for one of the sprays lead to a preference for that spray. The EARNS-Q preference module was assessed only once, at the end of TP2. Positive correlations indicate agreement (i.e. preference for a product is positively associated with better experience with same product).

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 23

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean rTNSS Over Period

    The rTNSS score is the sum of the four individual symptom scores for rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing. Each symptom is scored on a 4 point scale ranging from 0 to 3. Each individual symptom was evaluated using a scale of 0 (none; symptom is not present), 1 (mild; sign/symptom clearly present but minimal awareness; easily tolerated), 2 (moderate; definite awareness of sign/symptom that is bothersome but tolerable), or 3 (severe; sign/symptom is hard to tolerate; causes interference with activities of daily living and/or sleeping). The rTNSS ranges from 0 (none) to 12 (severe). Higher score represents greater severity of symptoms. The reflective assessment of the TNSS scores the four nasal symptoms over the previous 12 hours and are assessed in the morning and evening. The participants themselves scored nasal symptoms in a diary card. The analysis was done based on the rTNSS averaged over the two weeks of the treatment period.

    Measured: Day 1 to 8 of each treatment period

  2. Number or Participants With Preference of Nasal Sprays (Nasarel or Beconase AQ) at the End of the Last Cross-over Period Using the Preference Module of the EARNS-Q

    The participants with preference of nasal sprays (Nasarel or Beconase AQ) at the end of the last cross-over period was planned to be analyzed using the preference module of the EARNS-Q. The data for this outcome measure was not collected and the result summary was not generated.

    Measured: Up to Day 23

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Beclomethasone dipropionate and Flunisolide in people with Rhinitis, Allergic, Perennial, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 7 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Dec 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlations of Experience With Allergic Rhinitis Nasal Sprays Questionnaire (EARNS-Q) Preference Module With Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medicines (TSQM) Change Scores and Change in Mean Daily Reflective Total Nasal Symptom (rTNSS) Scores (time frame: Day 1 to Day 23). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jan 2018.
