结局指标
主要结局
To assess the change in daily Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) between Rhinix™ and placebo
时间窗: 11.00-17.00 with recordings at 30. minute increments.
Baseline recording at 09.00 Run-in recordings from 09.30-11.00 Daily Total Nasal Symptom Score evaluated from 11.00-17.00 with the last recording at 17.00, recordings at 30 minute increments. Total Nasal Symptom Score is the sum of 4 symptoms (runny nose, blocked nose, itchy nose and sneezing) which are each evaluated on a scale of 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe symptoms
次要结局
- To assess the change in Daily Throat Irritation between Rhinix™ and placebo(11.00-17.00 with hourly increments)
- Change in Daily TNSS for subgroup(11.00-17.00 at 30 minute increments)
- To assess the correlation between maximum TNSS and difference in Daily TNSS(11.00-17.00 at 30 minute increments)
