Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Give written informed consent and/or assent (as appropriate), including privacy authorization as well as adherence to concomitant medication withholding periods, prior to participation.
- Male or female 12 years and older prior to screening
- Subject must be in general good health (defined as the absence of any clinically relevant abnormalities as determined by the investigator) based on screening physical examination, clinical laboratory results, and medical history.
- A documented history of PAR to a relevant perennial allergen (house dust mites, cockroach, molds, animal dander) for a minimum of two years immediately preceding screening. The PAR must have been of sufficient severity to have required treatment (either continuous or intermittent) in the past, and require treatment with an INCS throughout the entire study period.
- At least one treatment for PAR during the 6 months prior to expected randomization, 14 days, with a nasal spray.
- A demonstrated sensitivity to at least 1 allergen known to induce PAR (house dust mites, animal dander, cockroach, and molds) based on a documented result with a standard skin-prick test either within 90 days prior to screening or performed at screening. A positive test is defined as a wheal diameter at least 3 mm larger than the negative control wheal for the skin-prick test. The subject's positive test for the allergen must be consistent with the medical history of PAR and the allergen must be present in the subject's environment throughout the study.
- Based upon subject's medical history, in the investigator's judgment, the subject is unlikely to have a seasonal allergy exacerbation during the study.
- Subject, if female ≤ 65 years of age, must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to screening Females of childbearing potential must be instructed to and agree to avoid pregnancy during the study and must use an acceptable method of birth control: An oral contraceptive, an intrauterine device (IUD), implantable contraceptive, transdermal or injectable contraceptive for at least 1 month prior to entering the study with continued use throughout the study and for 30 days following completion of the study; Barrier method of contraception, eg, condom and/or diaphragm with spermicide while participating in the study; Abstinence.
- The subject must possess a degree of understanding of written English, in the opinion of the investigator, that enables them to complete study participation
Exclusion
- Female subject who is pregnant or lactating.
- History of physical findings of clinically significant nasal pathology, including nasal polyps or other respiratory tract malformations; recent nasal biopsy; nasal trauma; or nasal ulcers or perforations. Clinically insignificant findings may be allowed if, in the investigator's judgment, the findings are unlikely to impact on: the safety or efficacy of an INCS: the subject's perception of treatment with an INCS.
- Surgery and atrophic rhinitis or rhinitis medicamentosa within the last 60 days prior to screening
- Presently has nasal jewelry, has had a nasal piercing, or a history of nasal surgery (eg, rhinoplasty, septoplasty) or trauma to the nasal cavity.
- Subject is, in the investigator's judgment, having a seasonal exacerbation prior to screening
- Participation in any investigational drug trial within the 30 days prior to screening, participation in a previous study involving the ARTSP instrument, or planned participation in another investigational drug trial at any time during this study.
- A known hypersensitivity to any corticosteroid or any of the components in the formulations of ciclesonide or mometasone.
- History of a respiratory infection or disorder (including, but not limited to, bronchitis, pneumonia, influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome \[SARS\]) within the 14 days prior to screening
- History of alcohol or drug abuse within 2 years prior to screening
- History of a positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C.
- Active asthma requiring treatment with inhaled or systemic corticosteroids and/or routine use of beta agonists and any controller drugs (eg, theophylline, leukotriene antagonists, etc.); intermittent use (less than or equal to three uses per week) of inhaled short-acting beta-agonists is acceptable. Use of short-acting beta-agonists for exercise-induced bronchospasm is allowed.
- Expected use of any disallowed medications during the study period.
- Expected initiation of immunotherapy during the study period or planned dose escalation during the study period. However, initiation of immunotherapy 90 days or more prior to screening and use of a stable (maintenance) dose (30 days or more) may be considered for inclusion.
- Non-vaccinated exposure to or active infection with chickenpox or measles within the 21 days prior to screening
- Expected initiation of pimecrolimus cream 1% or greater or tacrolimus ointment 0.03% or greater during the study period or planned dose escalation during the study period.However, initiation of these creams/ointments 30 days or more prior to screening and use of a stable (maintenance) dose during the study period may be considered for inclusion.
- Study participation by clinical site employees and/or their immediate relatives who reside in the same household.
- Study participation by more than one subject from the same household.
- Have any of the following conditions that are judged by the investigator to be clinically significant and/or affect the subject's ability to participate in the clinical trial: impaired hepatic function including alcohol related liver disease or cirrhosis, history of ocular disturbances, eg, glaucoma or posterior subcapsular cataracts any systemic infection hematological, hepatic, renal, endocrine (except for controlled diabetes mellitus or postmenopausal symptoms or hypothyroidism) disease, gastrointestinal disease, malignancy (excluding basal cell carcinoma, current neuropsychological condition with or without drug therapy
- Any condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, would preclude the subject from completing the protocol with completion of the assessments as written.
- Any use of mometasone nasal spray within 3 months prior to screening
- Any prior use of ciclesonide nasal aerosol.
