About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Parallel-Group Study Using Subjective and Objective Measures to Evaluate the Clinical Efficacy of Mometasone Furoate Nasal Spray (MFNS) Following Initial and Maintenance Dosing in Subjects With Allergen-Induced Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis (SAR) in an Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) works to relieve SAR symptoms compared to Placebo when symptoms are induced in a chamber setting. Evaluation will be based on subjects self-assessed nose symptoms. Other areas the study will evaluate are: 1) changes in eye symptoms (ocular symptom severity score) after dosing 2) how long MFNS works in relieving the nose (nasal) and eye (ocular) symptoms after 7 daily doses, 3) measurements of nose (nasal) blockage (obstruction), and 4) measurements of the subject's opinion of the study drugs by asking different questions. This study is could last up to 53 days for some subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in the Total Nasal Symptom Severity Score (TNSS) at 6 Hours After Dosage Administration on Day 1

    Value at 6 hours after dosage administration (Day 1) minus value at Baseline. Minimum threshold TNSS response defined as TNSS score ≥6 out of a possible 12 for combined nasal symptoms of congestion, sneezing, rhinorrhea \& itching with a score ≥2 for nasal congestion. Rating of the severity of the individual signs/symptoms according to the following scale: 0=None, sign/symptom wasn't present; 1=Mild, sign/symptom was present, but not disturbing; 2=Moderate, sign/symptom definitely present, \& disturbing some of the time; 3=Severe: sign/symptom very noticeable \& very bothersome most of the time.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 hours following initial dosing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mometasone Furoate Nasal Spray in people with Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis, run by Organon and Co.

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 6 inclusion and 14 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 9 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Apr 2010). 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?

Changes in the Total Nasal Symptom Severity Score (TNSS) at 6 Hours After Dosage Administration on Day 1 (time frame: Baseline and 6 hours following initial dosing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00491504, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Feb 2022.
