Allergic rhinitis study design Types of studies –Natural exposure study In-season, outpatient, multiple day (3-7 day run-in, days of double blind treatment), parallel-group –Day-in-the park study In-season, outpatient, single or multiple days (1-3 days), parallel-group –Environmental exposure unit study Out-of-season, single or multiple days (1-3 days) cross-over or parallel-group

Allergic rhinitis study design Efficacy measures –Nasal symptoms - reflective or instantaneous [0-3 scale] nasal itching, sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal congestion –Non-nasal symptoms - reflective or instantaneous [0-3 scale] eye itching, eye redness, eye watering, itching of ears or palate Objective pharmacodynamic measures of efficacy are not currently accepted because they lack validation and established clinical correlation –Measures of nasal passage patency rhinomanometry, nasal inspiratory flow rate, etc., –Inflammatory markers of disease activity cells, cytokines, chemokines, nitric oxide, etc.,

Summary comments Rhinitis studies of nasal sprays and aerosols do not consistently show dose-response relationship Reasons of failure to show dose-response –Symptom score is not a sensitive discriminative measure –The approved doses of some drugs may be at the upper flat portion of the dose-response curve
