Abstract
Some double-blind, placebo-controlled trials have shown that Azelastine (Aze) high dose (0.15%) was effective in seasonal (SAR) and perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR). However, there was no long-term comparison between Aze 0.15% and intranasal corticosteroids (INCS) on safety and quality of life in perennial allergic rhinitis.
An open-label, active-controlled, parallel-group one-year study comparing mometasone furoate and Aze 0.15% in adults assessed safety over 1 year. Efficacy using the 28-item rhino-conjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ) was a secondary end point.
A total of 703 patients were randomized and 687 (97.7%) were included in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. The present formulation was shown to be safe with long-term use over 12 months, with a mean duration of exposure of 270.7 days.
Over the one-year period, there was no significant difference for any RQLQ domains between Aze and mometasone furoate (MF) for all evaluations (baseline, 6, 9, and 12 months). This study suggests that Aze 0.15% and MF display a similar improvement of RQLQ ( 2.80 [2.78] for Aze 0.15% vs 2.81 [2.75] for MF).
期刊介绍:
The official pubication of the World Allergy Organization, the World Allergy Organization Journal (WAOjournal) publishes original mechanistic, translational, and clinical research on the topics of allergy, asthma, anaphylaxis, and clincial immunology, as well as reviews, guidelines, and position papers that contribute to the improvement of patient care. WAOjournal publishes research on the growth of allergy prevalence within the scope of single countries, country comparisons, and practical global issues and regulations, or threats to the allergy specialty. The Journal invites the submissions of all authors interested in publishing on current global problems in allergy, asthma, anaphylaxis, and immunology. Of particular interest are the immunological consequences of climate change and the subsequent systematic transformations in food habits and their consequences for the allergy/immunology discipline.
