Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate that BDP suspension for inhalation twice a day for 14 days added to antibiotic therapy improves clinical success rate and accelerates recovery in patients with acute rhinosinusitis.;Secondary Objective: • To assess the time from baseline to a status of clinical success (cured or much improved); • To assess the rhinosinusitis symptoms during the treatment phase; • To assess the changes of overall sinus symptoms and tha changes of each symptoms; • To assess the level of work performance based on patient perception (recorded on a VAS scale of the diary card) and on missed working time; • To assess the number or recurrences assess the absence of relapses; • To assess the changes of nasal mucociliary transport time; • To assess the nasal air flow resistance with rhinomanometry; • To assess the safety profile of the investigational study drug.;Primary end point(s): Proportion of patients who will experience clinical success at 7, 14, 21 or 28 days. Clinical success is defined as a patient report of cured or much improved.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7, 14, 21 or 28 days.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Time from baseline to a status of clinical success (cured or much improved); rhinosinusitis symptoms in the treatment phases; changes of overall sinus symptoms and the changes of each symptoms; level of work performance based on patient perception (recorded on a VAS scale of the diary card) and on missed working time; absence of relapses; nasal mucociliary transport time; nasal air flow resistance.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7, 14, 21 or 28 days.
