A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray for 2 Weeks in Chinese Adult and Adolescent Subjects With Allergic Rhinitis

June 6, 2017 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray for 2 Weeks in Chinese Adult and Adolescent Subjects With Allergic Rhinitis

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray (FFNS), that is FFNS with placebo in Chinese adult and adolescent subjects with Allergic Rhinitis as AR. There are 3 phases, 2 to14 day run in, 2 week treatment, and 3 to 5 day follow up. After run in period, at least 360 subjects with AR ( ages of 12yrs and 65yrs, inclusive) will be randomised to receive FFNS 110ug once daily or placebo for 2 weeks. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline of reflective total nasal symptom score (rTNSS) during treatment period, and the secondary endpoints include mean change from baseline in nasal finding scores by rhinoscopy at completion of study treatment, and severity of overall inference in activities of daily living. Safety measures include AE (Adverse Event) reports, ECGs (Electrocardiograph), physical exams, vital signs, and nasal exam. In addition, reflective total ocular symptom score (rTOSS) will be measured as an explorative endpoint, only in the specific AR (Allergic Rhinitis) patients with severe ocular symptoms.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, 2 week, double blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial. 7 investigational sites will be enlisted to randomize at least 360 subjects (outpatients) during 2009 and 2010. Throughout the entire study period, no antiallergy drugs and rhinitis medication, including rescue medication for symptom relief and anti-hyperactivity will be allowed. The run in period will consist of a minimum of 2 days and a maximum of 14 days. During this period, intermittent allergic rhinitis(IAR) or persistent allergic rhinitis(PER) should be diagnosed confirmatively as the definition from the current ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma) guideline and the coming effective Chinese allergic rhinitis management guideline. Subjects will assess their nasal symptom scores and compliance in dairy cards to confirm whether to meet randomization criteria. During the treatment period, subjects are randomized (1 and 1 ratio) to FFNS 110ug or matching vehicle placebo nasal spray to self administer intranasal treatment once daily for 2 weeks. Subjects will rate their nasal symptom scores and also document their study drug administration and compliance, any medication conditions experienced, and any concomitant medications taken in their dairy cards. Subjects also assess the severity of overall interference in activities of diary living(ADL) at baseline and the end of study treatment in their questionnaire. At baseline and the end of study treatment, investigators rate nasal findings scores by rhinoscopy, and record them in patient notes. A follow up telephone contact will be made 3 to 5 days after completion of study treatment/early withdrawal to assess for any post treatment adverse effects. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline of reflective total nasal symptom score(rTNSS) during treatment period, and the secondary endpoints include at completion of study treatment, mean change from baseline in nasal finding scores by rhinoscopy, and the severity of overall inference in activities of daily living. The safety measures include ECGs, vital exams, physical exams, and AE reports. In addition, reflective total ocular symptom score(rTOSS) will be measured as an explorative endpoint, only in the specific AR patients with severe ocular symptoms.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline Over the Entire Treatment Period in the Daily Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS)
Time Frame: Baseline through entire treatment period (Day 1 through Day 14)
The Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS; possible score of 0-12) is the sum of 4 individual participant-assessed symptom scores for rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing, each evaluated using a scale of 0=None, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, or 3=Severe. The rTNSS was performed in the morning (AM rTNSS) and evening (PM rTNSS) and assessed the participant's symptoms over the preceding 12 hours. The daily rTNSS is the average of the AM rTNSS and PM rTNSS assessments. Mean changes from baseline over the entire treatment period were calculated as treatment period rTNSS minus baseline rTNSS.
Baseline through entire treatment period (Day 1 through Day 14)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline (Visit 2) to the End of Study (Visit 4/Early Withdrawal) in Nasal Finding Score by Rhinoscopy
Time Frame: Baseline through end of study (Day 1 through Day 15/Early Withdrawal)
The nasal finding score by rhinoscopy (possible score of 0-12) is the sum of 4 individual investigator assessed scores for swelling of inferior nasal concha mucosa, color of inferior nasal concha mucosa, watery secretion volume, and description of rhinorrhea. The symptoms were assessed using a scale of 0=None, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe. Mean change from baseline to the end of study in nasal finding score by rhinoscopy was calculated as the nasal finding score by rhinoscopy at Visit 4/Early Withdrawal minus the nasal final finding score by rhinoscopy at Visit 2.
Baseline through end of study (Day 1 through Day 15/Early Withdrawal)
Mean Change From Baseline (Visit 2) to the End of Study (Visit 4/Early Withdrawal) in Severity of Overall Interference in Activities of Daily Living
Time Frame: Baseline through end of study (Day 1 through Day 15/Early Withdrawal)
The severity of overall interference in activities of daily living at baseline and the end of study was assessed by the investigator on the scale of 0=None, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe. The mean change from baseline to the end of study in severity of overall interference in activities of daily living was calculated as the severity of overall interference in activities of daily living at Visit 4/Early Withdrawal minus severity of overall interference in activities of daily living at Visit 2.
Baseline through end of study (Day 1 through Day 15/Early Withdrawal)
