Official title: Efficacy Of Nasal Irrigation With Combination of 0.9% NaCl and Binahong Extract (Anredera Cordifolia) 2,5% In Allergic Rhinitis

This randomized control trial study aims to know the effects of adding 2,5% Binahong extract on the effectiveness of NaCl 0.9% nasal irrigation in patients with allergic rhinitis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. How does the efficacy of Binahong Extract 2,5% with 0,9% NaCl to mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α)?
  2. How does the efficacy of Binahong Extract 2,5% with 0,9% NaCl to clinical symptoms?
  3. How does the efficacy of Binahong Extract 2,5% with 0,9% NaCl to quality of life?
  4. How does the efficacy of Binahong Extract 2,5% with 0,9% NaCl to physiology? Participants will use nasal irrigation two times daily for two weeks. Researchers will compare the nasal irrigation group using a combination of Binahong Extract 2,5% with the group using NaCl only to see the superior effect.
Read the detailed description

Background: Nasal irrigation with NaCl 0.9% is a recommended adjuvant therapy for sinonasal diseases, including allergic rhinitis, to reduce symptoms and the use of drugs. The nasal irrigation mechanism physically cleans irritant particles adhering to the nasal mucosa, reduce inflammation by reducing the concentration of inflammatory mediators, improve mucociliary function by increasing nasal cavity fluid, humidity and repairs the mucosal epithelium. Binahong is a medicinal plant widely used to improve mucosal conditions, accelerate wound healing, and have an anti-inflammatory effect. With the addition of 2.5% Binahong extract in NaCl 0.9% solution, anti-inflammatory substances are expected to increase the effectiveness of nasal irrigation in patients with allergic rhinitis.

Objective: To know the effects of the addition 2.5% Binahong extract on the effectiveness of NaCl 0.9% nasal irrigation in patients with allergic rhinitis with the assessment of mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α), clinical symptoms, quality of life, physiology, also to know the effectiveness analysis of intervention and side effects.

Methods: Analytical study designed in randomized control trials parallel groups, single-blind on adults subjects with allergic rhinitis. The diagnosis of AR was based on clinical symptoms of a Score for Allergic Rhinitis ≥7, supportive physical examination, and positive skin prick test result. Participants were randomly divided into two groups who were given NaCl 0.9 % nasal wash and NaCl 0.9 % nasal wash with 2.5% Binahong extract twice a day for 2 weeks. Examination of mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α), clinical symptoms (SNOT-22), quality of life (Mini-RQLQ), physiology (nasal flow and patency, mucociliary transport time) were performed before and after treatment. The data were described, tested for normality and homogeneity, then analyzed by t-test and if significant, continued by N-Gain score analysis.

Outcome: Scientific evidence of results for the addition of 2.5% Binahong extract to NaCl 0.9% nasal irrigation on mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α), clinical symptoms, quality of life, and physiology.

nasal irrigation with Saline groupActive comparatorThe patient uses nasal irrigation with saline only and then mixed with 300 ml of water. The treatment was done by tilting the head 45 degrees, then spraying 150 ml of liquid on one side and repeating it on the other. The treatment was done twice daily (morning and evening) for 14 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α)

    RNA samples were obtained from the epithelial mucosa of the nasal mucosa using a cytology brush by inserting the brush and rubbing it on the superior and medial inferior concha mucosa 2-3 times in a circular and parallel motion on both the right and left nasal cavities.

    Measured: Change from baseline mRNA at two weeks.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical symptoms

    Clinical symptoms were measured using the SNOT questionnaire with 22 questions consisting of 6 choices; no problem, a very mild problem, a mild/slight problem, a moderate problem, a severe problem, a very severe problem using likert scale. Thus the minimum value of this questionnaire is 0, and the maximum is 110. The outcome data scale will be analyzed in numerical form.

    Measured: Change from score baseline of clinical symptom at two weeks

  2. Physiology

    Physiology is measured by calculating the time required for nasal mucociliary transport to move particles to the nasopharynx, carried out by the saccharin test, which calculates the time from when saccharin is placed in the anterior third of the inferior meatus nasal until it tastes sweet. The result will be analyzed in numerical form.

    Measured: Change from score baseline of physiology at two weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing extract Binahong and Isotonic saline nasal irrigation in people with Allergic Rhinitis and Allergic Rhinitis Due to House Dust Mite, run by Gadjah Mada University at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2024. 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 Indonesia. 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

mRNA expression (IL-4, Il-6, IL-13, and TNF-α) (time frame: Change from baseline mRNA at two weeks.). 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 28 Feb 2024.
