Leukotriene Antagonism in Recruitment of CD49d Expressing Neutrophils in Atopic Subjects

October 3, 2019 updated by: Mitchell Grayson

Double Blind Study of Leukotriene Antagonism in the Nasal Recruitment of CD49d Expressing Neutrophils in Atopic Subjects

The purpose of this study is to see if the recruitment of a certain cell type (the alpha 4 integrin (CD49d) expressing neutrophil) during a nasal allergen challenge can be inhibited by pretreatment with an FDA approved leukotriene antagonist (montelukast).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Subjects will be consented, undergo skin testing, medical history questionnaires, and randomized to either placebo or montelukast (10 mg). In one week, subjects return, undergo a blood draw, medical history questionnaires, nasal lavage, and nasal allergen challenge (followed by lavage in 6 hours). Subjects will then cross-over to the other study drug. One week later subjects will undergo a blood draw, medical history questionnaires, lavage, allergen challenge, and repeat lavage (after 6 hours).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 65 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

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
Change in frequency in CD49d+ neutrophils in the nasal lavage post-allergen challenge on placebo versus Montelukast.
Time Frame: 1 month
The primary outcome will be the change in frequency (as assessed by flow cytometry) in CD49d+ neutrophils in the nasal lavage post-allergen challenge on placebo versus Montelukast.
1 month

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
Change in clinical response following nasal allergen challenge after one week of treatment with Montelukast.
Time Frame: 1 month
Secondary outcomes will be whether treatment with Montelukast for one week changes the clinical response to nasal allergen challenge (i.e., sneezing, itching, etc.) as documented in the validated Sino Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT)-20 questionnaire.
1 month

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Induction of expression of immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptor on dendritic cells following exposure with CD49d+ cells from peripheral blood samples.
Time Frame: 1 month
An additional outcome will be whether CD49d+ neutrophils from peripheral blood can induce increased expression of the IgE receptor (FceRI) on dendritic cells (also isolated from the peripheral blood).
