About this study
Official title: A One-year Placebo-Controlled Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of the House Dust Mite Sublingual Allergen Immunotherapy Tablet (SCH 900237/MK 8237) in Children and Adult Subjects With House Dust Mite-Induced Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis With or Without Asthma (Protocol No. P05607/001)
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of MK-8237 (SCH 900237) in the treatment of House Dust Mite (HDM)-Induced Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis (AR/ARC) in children and adults.
The primary hypothesis of this study is that administration of MK-8237, compared to placebo, results in significant reduction in the average total combined rhinitis score (TCRS).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Average Total Combined Rhinitis Score (TCRS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment
The TCRS is the sum of the rhinitis Daily Symptom Score (DSS; range: 0 to 12) and the rhinitis Daily Medication Score (DMS; range: 0 to 12); the total possible TCRS ranges from 0 to 24 points with higher scores indicative of greater symptom severity. The endpoint was calculated as the average daily diary entry score from the last 8 weeks of treatment.
Measured: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)
Number of Participants Who Experience At Least One Adverse Event (AE)
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Measured: Up to 54 weeks
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Drug Due to an AE
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Measured: Up to 52 weeks
Secondary outcomes (4)
Average Rhinitis Daily Symptom Score (Rhinitis DSS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment
The Rhinitis DSS ranges from a score of 0 to 12 (higher scores indicative of greater symptom severity). The endpoint was calculated as the average daily diary entry score from the last 8 weeks of treatment.
Measured: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)
Average Rhinitis Daily Medication Score (Rhinitis DMS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment
The Rhinitis DMS ranges from a score of 0 to 12 (higher scores indicative of greater symptomatic medication use). The endpoint was calculated as the average daily diary entry score from the last 8 weeks of treatment.
Measured: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)
Average Total Combined Rhinoconjunctivitis Score (TCS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment
The TCS is the sum of the rhinoconjunctivitis DSS (rhinitis DSS and conjunctivitis DSS; range: 0 to 18) and the rhinoconjunctivitis DMS (rhinitis DMS and conjunctivitis DMS; range: 0 to 20); the total possible TCS ranges from 0 to 38 points with higher scores indicative of greater symptom severity. The endpoint was calculated as the average daily diary entry score from the last 8 weeks of treatment.
Measured: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)
Average Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis Symptoms Assessed by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment
Participants indicated the severity of symptoms in the past week on a VAS with a score range of 0 ("no symptoms") to 100 ("severe symptoms"). Symptoms were assessed during 2 clinic visits occurring during the final 8 weeks of treatment (VAS score reflects the mean of 2 scores).
Measured: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing MK-8237 tablets, Rescue Medication: Self-Injectable Epinephrine and Rescue Medication: Loratadine tablets in people with Rhinitis, Allergic, Perennial and Rhinitis, Allergic, Nonseasonal, run by ALK-Abelló A/S.
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 3 inclusion and 19 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 15 Sep 2017. 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. 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 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 3 Mar 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?
Average Total Combined Rhinitis Score (TCRS) During Last 8 Weeks of Treatment (time frame: Last 8 weeks of treatment (Weeks 44 to 52)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01700192, which also lists 5 linked publications.
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 15 Sep 2017.
