What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Nighttime Symptom Score (NSS)

    Questions include: 1. Nasal congestion on awakening (Score: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe); 2. Difficulty going to sleep (Score: 0=not at all, 1=little, 2=moderately, 3=very); 3. Nighttime awakenings (Score: 0=not at all, 1=once, 2=more than once, 3=felt like awake all night). The sum of the ratings for the three items comprises the NSS.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Nighttime Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (N-rTNSS)

    Subjects assessed four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing). The sum of the four nasal symptoms comprised the total nasal symptom score (TNSS). Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in Daytime Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (D-rTNSS)

    Subjects assessed four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing). The sum of the four nasal symptoms comprised the total nasal symptom score (TNSS). Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in 24 Hour Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (24 Hour rTNSS)

    Subjects assessed four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing). The sum of the four nasal symptoms comprised the total nasal symptom score (TNSS).Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in Nighttime Reflective Total Ocular Symptom Score (N-rTOSS)

    Subjects assessed three ocular symptoms (itching/ burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, and eye redness). The sum of the 3 ocular symptoms comprised the total ocular symptom score (TOSS). Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  5. Mean Change From Baseline in Daytime Reflective Total Ocular Symptom Score (D-rTOSS)

    Subjects assessed three ocular symptoms (itching/ burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, and eye redness). The sum of the 3 ocular symptoms comprised the total ocular symptom score (TOSS). Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  6. Mean Change From Baseline in 24 Hour Reflective Total Ocular Symptoms Score (rTOSS)

    Subjects assessed three ocular symptoms (itching/ burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, and eye redness). The sum of the 3 ocular symptoms comprised the total ocular symptom score (TOSS). Reflective rating represented symptoms over preceding 12 hours. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  7. Mean Change From Baseline in Pre-Dose Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS)

    Subjects assessed four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing). The sum of the four nasal symptoms comprised the total nasal symptom score (TNSS).Instantaneous rating represented symptoms at the time of the assessment. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  8. Mean Change From Baseline in Pre-Dose Instantaneous Total Ocular Symptom Score (iTOSS)

    Subjects assessed three ocular symptoms (itching/ burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, and eye redness). The sum of the four ocular symptoms comprised the total nasal symptom score (TOSS).Instantaneous rating represented symptoms at the time of the assessment. Scores: 0=symptoms not present, 1=mild severity, 2=moderate severity, 3=severe.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  9. Mean Change From Baseline in Morning Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF)

    Subjects used a portable hand-held inspiratory flow meter to measure and record PNIF in the morning prior to taking the study medication. Three measurements were taken and the highest measurement was recorded in the electronic diary. A positive change signifies improved nasal air flow.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  10. Mean Change From Baseline in Evening Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF)

    Subjects used a portable hand-held inspiratory flow meter to measure and record PNIF in the evening. Three measurements were taken and the highest measurement was recorded in the electronic diary. A positive change signifies improved nasal air flow.

    Measured: Baseline and Weeks 1-2

  11. Mean Change From Baseline at Day 15 for Nocturnal Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (NRQLQ)

    Subjects completed the 16-item Nocturnal Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (NRQLQ)to assess nocturnal rhinitis-related quality of life. The NRQLQ measures the functional problems most troublesome to patients with nocturnal allergy symptoms. Each question scored from 0-6 with higher scores indicating more nocturnal impairment.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 15 or if Early Withdrawal Day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing fluticasone furoate, fexofenadine in people with Rhinitis, Allergic, Seasonal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 42 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 8 inclusion and 15 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 9 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 42 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 20 Mar 2009). 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?

Mean Change From Baseline in the Nighttime Symptom Score (NSS) (time frame: Baseline and Weeks 1-2). 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 9 Dec 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
