About this study

Official title: ReNIM Study - Nebulized Resveratrol Plus Carboxymethyl-β-Glucan for Reducing Nasal Interleukin-5 (IL-5) Measurements in Children With Allergic Rhinitis

Single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled study to:

  • characterize the subjects at baseline and discriminate groups of children based on IL-5, IL-17, IL-23 and INF-γ;
  • investigate the effect of Resveratrol plus Carboxymethyl-β-Glucan, two sprays (100µL/spray) for nostril three times/day for 4 weeks, in comparison with placebo, in reducing nasal interleukin-5 (IL-5) in children with Allergic Rhinitis (AR).

Secondary objectives are to examine the effect of resveratrol plus carboxymethyl-β-glucan, in comparison with placebo, on subjective parameters, i.e. symptom scores, visual analogue scales for rhinitis, quality of life and quality of sleep, and the effect on objective parameters, i.e. nasal nitric oxide (nNO) levels, nasal cytology and acoustic rhinometry.

Resveratrol plus Carboxymethyl-β-Glucan, Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Resveratrol plus Carboxymethyl-β-Glucan in people with Allergic Rhinitis, run by Istituto per la Ricerca e l'Innovazione Biomedica at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 5 Dec 2019. 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 Italy. 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?

Nasal Interleukin-17 (IL-17) (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Dec 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
