Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The combined nasal symptom and medication score
The symptoms assessed are: itchy nose, sneezing, runny nose, and blocked nose (all rated from 0-3). The medication score is 1 for oral and/or topical antihistamines, 2 for intranasal corticosteroids, and 3 for oral corticosteroids. The scores from the nasal symptoms are added and divided by 4 to a total daily symptom score from 0-3.Final score range from 0 to 6, higher score meaning a worse outcome.
Secondary outcomes
Score of the nasal symptoms scale
Symptoms assessed are: itchy nose, sneezing, runny nose, and blocked nose (all rated from 0-3). Final score range from 0 to 3, higher score meaning worse outcome.
Score of the specific medication scale
The medication score is 1 for oral and/or topical antihistamines, 2 for intranasal corticosteroids, and 3 for oral corticosteroids. Final score range from 0 to 3, higher score meaning worse outcome.
Percentage of days without symptoms or medication
Percentage of days with a zero value for symptom and medication recorded in the patient digital diary
VAS score (completed by the patient and the investigator)
Visual analogue score from 0 (no symptoms) to 100mm (serious symptoms) to assess global symptoms of allergy
