Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: Assessment of peak nasal inspiratory flow rate, systemic effects (overnight urinary cortisol/creatinine ratio), total nasal symptom scores, and adverse events.;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy variable is the Juniper mini rhinitis quality of life (MiniRQLQ) score.;Main Objective: To determine whether or not a new formulation of fluticason propionate aqueous nasal spray is non-inferior to the old in terms of efficacy, in patients with persistent allergic rhinitis, using the Juniper mini rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (miniRQLQ). | — |
