About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Cross-Over Trial of Topical ASP-1001 (Contrast Media Formulation) in the Prevention of the Signs and Symptoms of the Acute Response to Nasal Allergen Challenge (NAC)

The purpose of this study is to see whether ASP-1001 when given as a nasal spray is safe and can reduce the signs and symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hayfever) following nasal challenge with antigen.

Being tested
ASP-1001 nasal spray, Placebo for ASP-1001
Medical subject headings
Rhinitis, Allergic

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ASP-1001 nasal sprayDrug

    2 sprays (total 200 microliters) in each nostril 20 minutes before allergen challenge.

  • Placebo for ASP-1001Drug

    2 sprays (total 200 microliters) in each nostril 20 minutes before allergen challenge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Sneezing Symptom

    Sneezes. The change is calculated by adding the number of sneezes following both antigen challenges minus twice the number of sneezes after the diluent challenge.

    Measured: 10 minutes after diluent challenge and 10 minutes after each antigen challenge

  2. Change in Runny Nose Symptom

    The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of runny nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of runny nose after the diluent challenge.

    Measured: 10 minutes after diluent challenge and 10 minutes after each antigen challenge

  3. Change in Stuffy Nose Symptom

    The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of stuffy nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of stuffy nose after the diluent challenge.

    Measured: 10 minutes after diluent challenge and 10 minutes after each antigen challenge

  4. Change in Itching Symptom

    The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of itchy nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of itchy nose after the diluent challenge.

    Measured: 10 minutes after diluent challenge and 10 minutes after each antigen challenge

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Nasal Peak Inspiratory Flow Measurements

    The value of nasal peak inspiratory flow. The change is calculated by adding the values of nasal peak inspiratory flow following both antigen challenges minus twice the value of nasal peak inspiratory flow after the diluent challenge.

    Measured: 15 minutes after diluent challenge and 15 minutes after each antigen challenge

  2. Change in Nasal Peak Inspiratory Flow Measurements From Before to After Treatment

    Measured: 15 minutes prior to treatment and 15 minutes post antigen challenges

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ASP-1001 nasal spray in people with Allergic Rhinitis, run by University of Chicago at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 7 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 10 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 10 Jul 2013). 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?

Change in Sneezing Symptom (time frame: 10 minutes after diluent challenge and 10 minutes after each antigen challenge). The study lists 4 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 10 Jul 2013.
