简要总结
Multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, double-dummy, comparative clinical trial of the superiority of the fixed-dose combination of desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL and prednisolone 4 mg/mL from Eurofarma Laboratórios SA versus desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL in the treatment of moderate to severe persistent allergic rhinitis in children aged 6 to 12 years.

详细描述
Desloratadine and prednisolone are active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) already registered in the country as monodrugs. These products are widely used and their efficacy and safety are well known in daily clinical practice in the approved indications.
Once confirmed the absence of pharmacokinetic interaction between desloratadine and prednisolone in relative bioavailability studies, this phase 3 study will be conducted with the objective of demonstrating the superiority of the new FDC containing desloratadine and prednisolone over the isolated administration of desloratadine in treatment from moderate to severe allergic rhinitis in children. The aim is to provide a new effective, safe and well-tolerated therapeutic option for dealing with these cases.
Multicenter, randomized, parallel group, double blind, double-dummy, superiority comparative clinical trial.
Children aged ≥ 6 years and < 12 years with moderate to severe persistent allergic rhinitis unresponsive to optimal treatment, including daily use of intranasal corticosteroids, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive FDC desloratadine 0.5mg/mL/prednisolone 4mg/mL - gel for oral administration by Eurofarma Laboratórios SA (experimental drug) or desloratadine 0.5mg/mL - syrup, for five (05) days.
⚠️Study will only be conducted in research centers in Brazil (please do not send e-mail if your center is outside brazil).

ADF Group 1 - Eurofarma drug association of Desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL / Prednisolone 4 mg/mL
干预措施: Desloratadine , Prednisolone (Drug)
Active Comparator: Desalex® (Desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL)
Desalex® Group 2 - Eurofarma drug Desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL
干预措施: Desloratadine (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
The total nasal symptom score (TNSS)
时间窗: five (05) days after the treatment start
Primary objective: Demonstrate the superiority of the experimental drug (FDC desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL/prednisolone 4 mg/mL from Eurofarma Laboratórios SA) compared to desloratadine 0.5 mg/mL in alleviating symptoms of moderate/severe allergic rhinitis in children through the absolute variation of the total nasal symptom score (TNSS) five (05) days after the treatment start. The TNSS is determined by the sum of the intensity scores attributed to the symptoms of nasal obstruction, runny nose, nasal itching and sneezing in the last 24 hours. Each symptom is assessed using a 4-point categorical scale (0=absent symptom, 1=mild symptom, 2=moderate symptom, 3=intense symptom).
次要结局
- The total nasal symptom score (TNSS) ( efficacy)(three (03) days after the treatment start)
