About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase IIb/III Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of PG-011 Nasal Spray in Adults With Moderate to Severe Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis

The study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled seamless and adaptive-designed phase IIb/III study encompassing a phase IIb and a phase III component. The phase IIb study, which is registered this time, is a dose-ranging component. The phase III study is a pivotal part of the overall research.

The goal of this phase IIb study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of PG-011 nasal spray across various dosages and administration frequencies for treating adults with moderate to severe seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). Investigators will compare PG-011 nasal spray to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see which dosage and frequency works to treat moderate to severe seasonal allergic rhinitis.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study in adults participants aged from 18 to 65 years old (including threshold) with moderate to severe SAR. Approximately 160 participants will be randomized assigned to one of the 4 following groups in a 1:1:1:1 ratio.

PG-011 nasal spray 0.3% ( 0.6mg Pumecitinib) administered twice daily, PG-011 nasal spray 0.6% (1.2mg Pumecitinib) administered once daily, PG-011 nasal spray 0.6% (1.2mg Pumecitinib) administered twice daily, PG-011 placebo nasal spray 0% (0 mg Pumecitinib) administered once or twice daily.

Participants will receive blinded study treatment for 14 days followed by 21 days safety follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in average retrospective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) over the 14-day treatment period

    The reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) was assessed by 12-hour reflective scoring (AM, PM) of the severity of four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal congestion, nasal itching). Scores ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 3 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). The rTNSS was calculated as the sum of the subject-reported severity scores for nasal symptoms, and value ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 12 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). Higher scores indicate more severe nasal symptoms, while lower scores indicate less severe nasal symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 14

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Percent change from baseline in average retrospective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) over the 14-day treatment period

    The reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) was assessed by 12-hour reflective scoring (AM, PM) of the severity of four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal congestion, nasal itching). Scores ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 3 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). The rTNSS was calculated as the sum of the subject-reported severity scores for nasal symptoms, and value ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 12 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). Higher scores indicate more severe nasal symptoms, while lower scores indicate less severe nasal symptoms.

    Percent change is calculated as (Change from baseline / Baseline result *100).

    Measured: Baseline and Day 14

  2. Change and percent change from baseline in average instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) over the 14-day treatment period

    The instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) was assessed by instantaneous symptom severity of four nasal symptoms (rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal congestion, nasal itching). Scores ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 3 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate).The iTNSS was calculated as the sum of the subject-reported severity scores for nasal symptoms, and value ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 12 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). Higher scores indicate more severe nasal symptoms, while lower scores indicate less severe nasal symptoms.

    Percent change is calculated as (Change from baseline / Baseline result *100).

    Measured: Baseline and Day 14

  3. Change and percentage change from baseline in average retrospective Ocular Symptom Total Score (rTOSS) over the 14-day treatment period

    The reflective Ocular Symptom Total Score (rTOSS) was assessed by 12-hour reflective scoring (AM, PM) of the severity of three rocular symptoms (itching/burning, tearing/watering, and redness).Scores ranged from 0 (no signs/symptoms evident) to 3 (severe signs/symptoms that is hard to tolerate). . The Total Ocular Symptom Score (TOSS) ranged from 0 to 9. Higher scores indicate more severe ocular symptoms, while lower scores indicate less severe ocular symptoms.

    Percent change is calculated as (Change from baseline / Baseline result *100).

    Measured: Baseline and Day 14

  4. Change and percent change from baseline in average instantaneous ocular symptom score (iTOSS) over 14-day treatment period

    The instantaneous Total ocular Symptom Score is a scale used to measure ocular symptom severity based on how the participant was feeling just before taking each dose of study medication. Scores ranged from 0 to 9, and calculated as the sum of participant's scoring of three individual ocular symptoms (itching/burning, tearing/watering, and redness) on a 0 to 3 categorical severity scale (0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe).

    Percent change is calculated as (Change from baseline / Baseline result *100).

    Measured: Baseline and Day 14

  5. Change from baseline in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) score of general activities on day 15

    Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) has 28 questions in 7 domains (activity limitation, sleep problems, nose symptoms, eye symptoms, non-nose/eye symptoms, practical problems and emotional function). Each question on a 7-point scale (0 = not impaired at all - 6 = severely impaired). The overall RQLQ score is the mean of all 28 responses.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 15

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pumecitinib Nasal Spray 0.3%, Pumecitinib Nasal Spray 0.6% and Pumecitinib nasal spray 0.6%(twice daily) in people with Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis, run by Prime Gene Therapeutics Co., Ltd. at 20 sites in China.

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 5 inclusion and 20 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 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Change from baseline in average retrospective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) over the 14-day treatment period (time frame: Baseline and Day 14). 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 9 Sep 2026.
