结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline in the daily Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS)
时间窗: Baseline, Day 7
The benefit of the treatment with the fixed combination medicinal product Momeatsone+Azelastine nasal spray (test product) in comparison to the treatment with the individual medicinal products Mometasone nasal spray and Azelastine nasal spray (comparator products) will be assessed by comparing the change from baseline in the daily Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) during the first seven days of treatment. Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) of 4 symptoms (rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal itching, and nasal congestion) will be assessed by the patient in a patient's diary. Each symptom will be scored on a 4-point scale where 0 = no symptoms, 1 = mild symptoms, 2 = moderate symptoms, and 3 = severe symptoms, such that the maximum TNSS is 12.
次要结局
- Baseline-adjusted differences in nasal obstruction assessed by peak nasal inspiratory flow measurements (PNIF)(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Number of responders with an improvement of ≥ 0.5 points in the assessment of overall RQLQ(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Change from baseline in individual daily ocular symptoms(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Change from baseline in Rhinoscopy score(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Change from baseline in the daily Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS)(Baseline, Day 14)
- Intra-group changes in health-related Quality of Life (RQLQ)(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Change from baseline in individual daily nasal symptoms(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Intra-group changes in the Rhinitis Control Assessment Test (RCAT) score(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Number of responders with a RCAT score ≥22(Baseline, Day 7 and Day 14)
- Onset of action: Instantaneous TNSS(On Day 2 (first day of treatment) from 0 to 8 hours (at 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h) after the first dose administration)
- Onset of action: instantaneous ocular symptoms(On Day 2 (first day of treatment) from 0 to 8 hours (at 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h) after the first dose administration)
