About this study

Official title: Nasal Muco-ciliary Clearance Study With and Without Salt Inhalation Via a Salt Particle Inhaler at COPD, Asthma and Healthy Individuals

Investigating nasal muco-ciliary clearance by scintigraphy

Read the detailed description

The velocity and the retention of the nasal muco-ciliary clearance is going to be investigated with a salt particle inhaler and a placebo by the method nasal scintigraphy.

The hypotheses is that nasal inhalation of salt particles enhance the nasal mucociliary clearance.

Being tested
Inhalation from a salt particle inhaler with or without content

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Nasal Mucociliary Clearance

    Change in nasal mucociliary clearance velocity (mm/min) from placebo to salt inhalation

    Measured: At study day 1 and 2

  2. Nasal Mucociliary Clearance

    Change in nasal mucociliary clearance retention (%) from placebo to salt inhalation

    Measured: At study day 1 and 2

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Spirometry

    Change in FEV! from placebo to saltinhalation

    Measured: At the beginning and the end of study day 1 and 2

  2. Saccharin test

    Change in time for saccharin transport

    Measured: At study day 1 and 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inhalation from a salt particle inhaler with or without content in people with Obstructive Airway Diseases, run by Liita Care ApS 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 3 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2021. 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.

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zainab Saraj, Cand.Pharm. (0045 22268865, zs@liitacare.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Nasal Mucociliary Clearance (time frame: At study day 1 and 2). The study lists 2 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 15 Jan 2021.
