Trial summary

Allergic rhinitis is a common condition caused by inflammation of nasal mucosa. The study was performed to gain information on this inflammation, including effect of intranasal corticosteroid treatment hereupon and potential influence on the lower airways, ie asthma. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Allergic Inflammation in Rhinitis Patients Following Nasal Allergen Challenge. Impact on Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness and the Effect of Intranasal Corticosteroid Treatment

Allergic rhinitis is a common condition caused by inflammation of nasal mucosa. The study was performed to gain information on this inflammation, including effect of intranasal corticosteroid treatment hereupon and potential influence on the lower airways, ie asthma.

The study was randomised, placebo-controlled double-blind in patients, monoallergic to grasspollen, presenting symptoms of rhinitis and asthma during season.

Treatment,ie intranasal corticosteroid or placebo, were given four weeks. After two weeks of treatment intranasal allergen challenge was performed. Measurements were performed during the full study period.

The study was performed out of pollen season.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing INCS in people with Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma, run by University of Aarhus at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 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 6 Aug 2012. 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 Denmark. 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 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?

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?

Serum Eosinophil Cationic Protein (ECP) (time frame: 1 month). 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 6 Aug 2012.
