NCT00348361

Brief Summary

This study is aimed at validating key therapeutic targets and biomarkers associated with allergic rhinitis. The therapeutic target expression will be investigated after a 7 day course of corticosteroid treatment followed by allergen challenge.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in expression of key allergy targets in the nose following exposure to allergen. Assessment of protein expression measured by western blotting and immunohistochemistry in nasal biopsy tissue.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Effect of corticosteroids treatment on the change in target expression following allergen challenge. Nasal lavage fluid and nasal secretions will be measured by ELISA and chemiluminescent assay.
