Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the efficacy of a 15 days treatment with a herbal medicinal product (BNO-1016) for treatment of acute rhinosinusitis in adult patients in two different dosages compared to placebo on the basis of the major symptom score (MSS) assessed by the investigator.;Secondary Objective: To assess the safety of two different dosages of BNO-1016 compared to placebo applied in patients with acute rhinosinusitis. To determine the dose with the best benefit / risk ratio for the treatment of acute rhinosinusitis.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this study is the MSS over the 15-day treatment period which will be calculated as “area under the curve” by the trapezoid rule. The MSS is the sum of the investigator’s morning assessment of the 5 main rhinosinusitis symptoms on Visit 1 (Day 0), Visit 2 (Day 3), Visit 3 (Day 7), Visit 4 (Day 10) and Visit 5 (Day 14) based on the 4-point rating scale given below: 0 = None / Not present 1 = Mild 2 = Moderate 3 = Severe The 5 main rhinosinusitis symptoms are: - rhinorrhea (anterior discharge) - postnasal drip - nasal congestion - headache - facial pain / pressure
