Trial summary

Inflammatory proteins from eosinophil granulocytes in blood from patients with seasonal allergic hayfever have been shown to predict development of asthma at a six-year follow-up. This study is a 15-year follow-up of the same patients to verify earlier results and study disease development. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Eosinophil Markers and Development of Disease in Allergic Rhinitis. A 15-year Follow-up of Patients With Grass Pollen Induced Hayfever.

Inflammatory proteins from eosinophil granulocytes in blood from patients with seasonal allergic hayfever have been shown to predict development of asthma at a six-year follow-up. This study is a 15-year follow-up of the same patients to verify earlier results and study disease development.

Read the detailed description

The study consists of a single visit at which patients fill in a questionnaire on actual hayfever and asthma symptoms as well as current treatment. Blood samples and nasal lavages are drawn and analysed for eosinophils as well as eosinophil cationic protein and tryptase. Spirometry is performed.

If patients use drugs which can interfere with results, ie. corticosteroids or beta-agonists, biochemistry and/or spirometry are omitted.

Medical subject headings
Rhinitis, Allergic, Seasonal

What is being measured

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

  1. Asthma morbidity

    Patients are asked whether they have experienced asthmatic symptoms or have been disgnosed with asthma within the latest 15 years

    Measured: Single measurement - May 2010

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rhinitis morbidity

    Patients are asked for current hayfever symptoms

    Measured: Single measurement - May 2010

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis, run by University of Aarhus.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 1 Sep 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Asthma morbidity (time frame: Single measurement - May 2010). 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 1 Sep 2010.
