Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) and oxymetazoline nasal spray (OXY) given together once a day (QD) in treating participants with seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) in relieving symptoms including nasal congestion.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.

    End point description
    Participants scored severity of rhinorrhea, nasal congestion/stuffiness, nasal itching, and sneezing at the time of evaluation (NOW) using an ordinal scale from 0 = none to 3 = severe. Evaluations were performed daily in the morning (AM) and evening (PM). For each evaluation, the four individual symptom scores were summed to a TNSS (range 0-12), which was then averaged for a single score across the 15 day treatment period. The ITT population, including all randomized participants who had taken at least one dose of study drug, was used for analysis.

    Standardized area under the curve from 0 to 4 hours [AUC(0-4 hr)] of the change from baseline to hour 4 on Day 1 in nasal congestion score
    End point description
    Participants scored the nasal congestion/stuffiness symptom using an ordinal scale from 0 = none to 3 = severe. Baseline was the average of the scores assessed every 15 minutes for 1 hour prior to dosing on Day 1. After dosing on Day 1, congestion was scored every 15 minutes for the 1st hour and every 30 minutes for the next 3 hours. Area under the curve (AUC) was calculated using the trapezoid rule, then standardization achieved by dividing the calculation by 4 hours. Treatment comparisons were examined using the standardized AUC(0-4 hr) of the change from baseline to hour 4 on Day 1. The ITT population, including all randomized participants who had taken at least one dose of study drug, was used for analysis.
