Onset of efficacy of azelastine hydrochloride 0.15% nasal spray for allergic rhinitis in an environmental exposure chamber
Background
Azelastine nasal spray is effective in relieving symptoms of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis.
Objective
To evaluate the time to onset of efficacy of azelastine hydrochloride (HCl) 0.15% vs placebo in participants with seasonal allergic rhinitis.
Methods
A total of 110 participants aged 18 to 65 years were randomized to receive azelastine HCl 0.15% 2 sprays per nostril vs placebo nasal spray after being continuously exposed to ragweed pollen in an environmental exposure chamber. Symptoms were evaluated subjectively by the total nasal symptom score (TNSS) scale. The primary efficacy parameter was the time to onset of efficacy of azelastine as measured by the change from baseline in TNSS 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 minutes post-dose.
Results
The azelastine nasal spray group had statistically significant improvement in TNSS compared with placebo 30 minutes post-dose (P = .0002), and the effect was sustainable throughout the environmental exposure chamber session for all subsequent time points (P < .0001). Adverse events were mild, including bitter taste, nasal discomfort, epistaxis, sinusitis, and nausea. No major adverse events were reported during the study.
Conclusion
Azelastine HCl 0.15% nasal spray relieves nasal symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis and has a fast onset of action within 30 minutes. The overall safety profile of azelastine has also been proven to be safe. These results, along with previous findings on efficacy and improved quality of life for people with allergic rhinitis, establish the important clinical role of azelastine HCl 0.15%.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology is a scholarly medical journal published monthly by the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. The purpose of Annals is to serve as an objective evidence-based forum for the allergy/immunology specialist to keep up to date on current clinical science (both research and practice-based) in the fields of allergy, asthma, and immunology. The emphasis of the journal will be to provide clinical and research information that is readily applicable to both the clinician and the researcher. Each issue of the Annals shall also provide opportunities to participate in accredited continuing medical education activities to enhance overall clinical proficiency.
