What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Change From Baseline for Mean Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS)

    The symptoms included in the reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) scale are nasal congestion/stuffy nose, nasal discharge/runny nose, sneezing, and itchy nose. Symptoms were scored on a four point scale, 0-3, for each assessment were calculated by totaling these four symptom scores for a maximum score of 12.

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 14

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Mean Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS)

    The symptoms included in the instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) scale are nasal congestion/stuffy nose, nasal discharge/runny nose, sneezing, and itchy nose. Symptoms were scored on a four point scale, 0-3, for each assessment were calculated by totaling these four symptom scores for a maximum score of 12.

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 14

  2. Change From Baseline iTNSS Scores on Day 1 Post First Randomized Dose

    This outcome measured the time to statistical significance of the reduction of signs/symptoms over a 4 hour period on Day 1 only by measuring the reduction in iTNSS scores. When the change from baseline was statistically significant, it was associated with a time to onset of the anti-histamine component of the formulation.

    Subjects will record iTNSS scores for 4 hours post first randomized dose. The symptoms included in the instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) scale are nasal congestion/stuffy nose, nasal discharge/runny nose, sneezing, and itchy nose. Symptoms were scored on a four point scale, 0-3, for each assessment were calculated by totaling these four symptom scores for a maximum score of 12.

    Measured: Day 1, up to four hours post the first dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Azelastine Hydrochloride/Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray in people with Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis, run by Padagis LLC at 30 sites 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 8 inclusion and 22 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 22 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites 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 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 15 Mar 2021). 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?

Mean Change From Baseline for Mean Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) (time frame: Day 1 through Day 14). 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 22 Oct 2021.
