简要总结
It is an randomized, open label, prospective, two arm, comparative multicentric study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of montelukast and fexofenadine fixed dose combination vs montelukast and levocetirizine fixed dose combination in the management of patients with allergic rhinitis.
Primary Endpointsxml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /
- The change in Total Symptom Score [(TSS is the sum Total nasal symptom score (TNSS) and Total Ocular symptom score (TOSS)] at the end of study as compared to baseline.
Secondary Endpoints
- Total nasal symptom score (TNSS) *(*nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itching, and sneezing) at the end of study as compared to baseline
- Total Ocular symptom score (TOSS) (Itching/burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes and eye redness) at the end of study as compared to baseline
- Physician’s and Patient’s Global assessment for efficacy and tolerability
- To evaluate the safety by assessing the type, number, frequency and proportion of patients with Adverse Event(s) during the study.
Total nasal symptom score (TNSS) and Total Ocular symptom score (TOSS) will be graded on 4-point categoric scale:
0 = none/ no symptoms;
1 = mild symptoms, but not affecting any activities during the day/sleep at night;
2 = moderate symptoms affecting at least one activity or disturbing sleep;
3 = severe symptoms affecting >2 daily activities or disturbing sleep all night or most of the night
