About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Nasal Budesonide on Control of Airway Inflammation by Determining FeNO in Children With Allergic Rhinitis.

In clinical trials for treatment of allergic rhinitis a significant reduction of the total symptom score compared to baseline has been demonstrated by using nasal budesonide.Previous results in adults show that the assessment and monitoring del nasal fractional exhaled nitric oxide (nFeNO) is useful in controlling inflammation of nasal allergic rhinitis.

Primary objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of nasal budesonide (aqueous solution) on the nasal inflammation marker (nFeNO).

Secondary outcomes are the evaluation of: changes in total nasal symptom score (Total Symptom Score, T5SS), changes in cell counts in nasal lavage (LN) and the changes reported sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, PSQI).

Being tested
Budesonide nasal spray (100 mcg bid), Budesonide nasal spray (50 mcg bid

Budesonide nasal (100 mcg bid)ExperimentalThe study will be randomized, controlled parallel group. After 1 week of phase baseline screening (Visit 1), patients will be randomized (1:4) with the assignment of a code (B-200_da 01 to 08, B-100_ 01 to 31) (day 0, Visit 2) in 2 groups: N1 (n = 8) = Budesonide nasal spray 100 mcg, 2 v / d; Patients return to control after the 1st week (day 7, Visit 3), after the 2nd week (day 14, Visit 4) and one week after the end of the treatment period (day 21, Visit 5). It will give a tolerance of ± 3 days for the timing of planned visits. In the phase of follow-up, (3 days after the last dose of drug) will be recorded the occurrence of adverse effects (Adverse Event, EA)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Budesonide nasal spray (100 mcg bid) and Budesonide nasal spray (50 mcg bid 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2018. 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. 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 nitric oxide (nFeNO) (time frame: 21 days). 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 NCT02409563, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 Jan 2018.
