About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study to Investigate the Potential of Buparid/PARI SINUS Versus Budes® Nasal Spray to Avoid or Postpone Sinus Surgery in Adult Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis

The study should create data for the selection of a clinically relevant endpoint to assess the potential of Buparid/PARI SINUS to postpone sinus surgery in patients with chronic Rhinosinusitis.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to analyse whether Buparid/PARI SINUS has a higher potential to avoid or postpone sinus surgery in adult patients with CRS than Standard of Care therapy with Budes® Nasal Spray. The results of this study are expected to provide estimates for a proper sample size calculation to conduct a pivotal study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Inflammation of the Nasal Mucosa and Paranasal Sinus

    Inflammation of the nasal mucosa and paranasal sinus was assessed using the Lund-Mackay score based on magnetic resonance imaging. The score can take on values between 0 and 24 points, with higher values indicating more severe thickness of the mucosa or opacification. The outcome investigated is the intraindividual mean score of 2 independent raters assessing the same images.

    Measured: Change from Baseline to week 8

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Health-specific Quality of Life

    Health-specific quality of life was assessed by means of the self-rated, 20-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-20). The SNOT-20 total score has a (theoretical) range of 0 - 100 points, with higher scores indicating more severe impairment.

    Presented are the mean values of the SNOT-20 total score after 48 weeks minus value at day 0 (baseline).

    Measured: change of SNOT-20 total score from baseline to week 48

  2. Nasal Obstruction

    Nasal obstruction was assessed using the method of rhinomanometry by measuring the positive nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF). For the assessment the subject had to inhale maximally through the nose three times and the highest value of flow rate was recorded after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: 4 weeks / 8 weeks

  3. Inflammation of the Nasal Mucosa and Paranasal Sinus

    Determination of the thickness of the mucosa using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Measured: Changes from Baseline at Week 8

  4. Safety Assessment

    Treatment-emergent adverse events

    Measured: 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Budesonide in people with Rhinosinusitis, run by Pari Pharma GmbH at 3 sites in Germany.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 12 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

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 12 Apr 2022). 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 of Inflammation of the Nasal Mucosa and Paranasal Sinus (time frame: Change from Baseline to week 8). 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 12 Apr 2022.
