Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a 12-Week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of intranasal administration of 186 µg of OPN-375 twice a day (BID) in adolescent subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps. The total planned number of subjects is approximately 84 adolescents (12-17 years of age) who will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 2 study treatments using a 1:1 ratio (OPN-375 186 µg:placebo). The study includes a PK sub-study, in which up 14 subjects will be enrolled to obtain 10 completers.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of intranasal administration of OPN-375 (fluticasone propionate)186 µg twice a day (BID) versus placebo in adolescents with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) without nasal polyps (sNP) using the endpoint of change from baseline in CRS symptoms as measured by a 7-day average instantaneous composite score of nasal symptoms (CSS) at the end of Week 4. The CSS is the sum of scores assigned to the symptoms congestion, facial pain or pressure sensation, and nasal discharge (anterior and/or posterior), on a scale of 0 (non-symptomatic) to 3 (severe symptoms). The total CSS can range from 0-9. Eligible study subjects will complete a 7 to 21 day screening period followed by a 12-week double-blind treatment period, for a total of approximately 15 weeks of participation. The study consists of 3 on-site study visits (screening/V1, randomization/V2, end of study/V3/Week 12) and two telephone calls at participation weeks 4 and 8.

The study will include a pharmacokinetic (PK) substudy in which PK assessment of 186 µg OPN-375 in up to 14 study subjects will be conducted in an open label fashion.

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Male or female subjects aged 12 to 17 years, inclusive, at time of Visit 1 (Screening)

1. be practicing an effective method of birth control (e.g., prescription oral contraceptives, contraceptive injections, contraceptive patch, intrauterine device, double-barrier method \[e.g., condoms, diaphragm, or cervical cap with spermicidal foam, cream, or gel\], or male partner sterilization) before entry and throughout the study, or
2. be surgically sterile, (have had a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy, tubal ligation, or otherwise be incapable of pregnancy), or
3. be abstinent.
3. Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at Visit 1 (Screening).
4. Must have a history of CRS and be currently experiencing 2 or more of the following symptoms, 1 of which has to be either nasal congestion or nasal discharge (anterior and/or posterior nasal discharge) for equal to or greater than 12 weeks:

* nasal congestion
* nasal discharge (anterior and/or posterior nasal discharge)
* facial pain or pressure
* reduction or loss of smell
5. Must have endoscopic evidence of nasal mucosal disease, with edema, or purulent discharge bilaterally, or presence of bilateral disease on a prior computed tomography (CT) scan performed within 14 days of Visit 1.
6. Must have at least moderate symptoms (as defined in protocol) of nasal congestion as reported by the subject, on average, for the 7-day period preceding Visit 1 (Screening) run-in.
7. Must have an average morning score of at least 1.5 for congestion on the Nasal Symptom Scale (as defined in protocol) recorded on the subject diary over a 7-day period during the first 14 days of the single-blind run-in period.
8. Must demonstrate an ability to correctly complete the daily diary during the run-in period to be eligible for randomization.
9. Subjects with comorbid asthma must be stable, defined as no exacerbations (e.g., no emergency room visits, hospitalization, or oral or parenteral steroid use) within the 3 months before Visit 1 (Screening). Subjects who received inhaled corticosteroids are required to be on no more than a moderate dosage regimen as defined by 2021 Global Initiative for Asthma Guidelines (GINA) for 1 month before Visit 1 (Screening), and are expected to remain on it throughout the study. Subjects receiving inhaled fluticasone alone or in combination may not participate in the PK sub-study.
10. Subjects with aspirin exacerbated respiratory disease, who have undergone aspirin desensitization and are receiving daily aspirin therapy, must be receiving therapy for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1.
11. Must be able to cease treatment with intranasal steroids, inhaled corticosteroids (except permitted doses listed above for asthma) at the screening visit
12. If taking oral antihistamines, must be on a stable regimen for at least 2 weeks prior to Visit 1 (Screening), and agree to not change the dose of these medications until after Week 4 of the study.
13. Must be able to use the exhalation delivery system (EDS) correctly; all subjects will be required to demonstrate correct use with the practice EDS at Visit 1 (Screening).
