Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the Global Score of the Acute Rhinitis Symptoms Severity Questionnaire (ARSSQ) During First 10 Days of Symptoms - Full Analysis Set (FAS)

    ARSSQ is a non-validated customized questionnaire. It includes 10 items assessing symptoms (questions 2 to 7), functional impairments (8 to 10), and global severity (question 1). Each item is scored from 0 (not present/no impact/ not sick) to 3 (severe, severe impact and very sick) for symptoms, functional impairment and global severity respectively. The questionnaire is to be completed in a diary once daily in the evening. The minimum ARSSQ score is zero (0) and the maximum ARSSQ score is thirty (30).

    From Day 1 to Day 10

  • The Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the Global Score of the Acute Rhinitis Symptoms Severity Questionnaire (ARSSQ) During First 10 Days of Symptoms - Per Protocol Set (PP)

    ARSSQ is a non-validated customized questionnaire. It includes 10 items assessing symptoms (questions 2 to 7), functional impairments (8 to 10), and global severity (question 1). Each item is scored from 0 (not present/no impact/ not sick) to 3 (severe, severe impact and very sick) for symptoms, functional impairment and global severity respectively. The questionnaire is to be completed in a diary once daily in the evening. The minimum ARSSQ score is zero (0) and the maximum ARSSQ score is thirty (30).

    From Day 1 to Day 10

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Duration of Each Cold Symptom (Questions 2 to 7 of the ARSSQ) in Both Groups

    Through study completion, up to Day 18

  • Duration of Quality-of-life Impairment (Questions 8 to 10 of the ARSSQ).

    Through study completion, up to Day 18

  • Cumulative Number of Days of Concomitant Treatments Use That May Affect Common Cold Symptoms (Antibiotics, Antipyretics, Systemic or Local Mucolytics, Decongestants, Antitussives, Systemic and Topical Corticosteroids)

    Through study completion, up to Day 18

  • Cumulative Number of Days of Antibiotics Intake

    through study completion , up to day 18

  • Cumulative Number of Days of Antipyretics Intake

    through study completion, up to day 18

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Healsea Babykids

EXPERIMENTAL

Healsea® Babykids, nasal spray indistinguishable from the comparator. Subjects have to spray 2 puffs in each nostril 2 times per day with a minimum of 7-day-treatment period (14 intakes ) up to 10 days (20 intakes ).

Device: Healsea Babykids

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The comparator is a saline isotonic nasal spray considered as inert Placebo i.e., neutral for the nasal mucosa. Subjects have to spray 2 puffs in each nostril 2 times per day with a minimum of 7-day-treatment period (14 intakes ) up to 10 days (20 intakes ).

Device: Placebo

Eligibility Criteria

Age25 Months - 6 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • \. Male/Female subjects \>2 and ≤6-year-old
  • \. Acute infectious rhinitis/rhinosinusitis for ≤48h before trial entry
  • \. Patient presenting with fever ≥ 37.5 °C at screening
  • \. Subjects with nasal congestion (blocked / stuffy nose) rated at least as moderate on the Acute Rhinitis Symptoms Severity Questionnaire, based on evaluation by the investigator
  • \. Subjects showing at least moderate grade for at least one of the following additional signs of acute rhinitis: runny nose, nasal crust (dry mucus), sneezing and cough
  • \. Written consent obtained from parent/legal guardians

You may not qualify if:

  • \. Known hypersensitivity/allergy to any component of the test device
  • \. Severe nasal septum deviation or other condition that could cause nasal obstruction such as the presence of nasal polyps
  • \. History of nasal or sinus surgery that in the opinion of the investigator may influence symptom scores
  • \. Antibiotic intake within 2 weeks before screening
  • \. Systemic corticosteroids within 4 weeks before screening
  • \. Chronic decongestant use
  • \. Recent (within the previous 2 days) intake of a common cold medicine that in the opinion of the investigator may influence ARSSQ score at screening (NSAID, nasal decongestants, cough medicines)

Limitations and Caveats

In the absence of validated questionnaire assessing the severity and functional impact of an acute infectious rhinitis in young children, we used a customized non validated questionnaire, the ARSSQ (Acute Rhinitis Symptoms Severity Questionnaire).

The investigational device and the comparator were indistinguishable. The comparator (isotonic nasal spray) used the same technology and the same packaging than Healsea Babykids. A white label with regulatory mentions for clinical investigations was stuck on the vial A white label with regulatory mentions was sticked on a white cardboard box used as secondary packaging.
