Fixed Dose Combination of Desloratadine / Prednisolone in the Treatment of Moderate Severe Allergic Rhinitis in Children
248 patients around the world
Available in Brazil
Desloratadine and prednisolone are active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) already
registered in the country as monodrugs. These products are widely used and their efficacy
and safety are well known in daily clinical practice in the approved indications.
Once confirmed the absence of pharmacokinetic interaction between desloratadine and
prednisolone in relative bioavailability studies, this phase 3 study will be conducted
with the objective of demonstrating the superiority of the new FDC containing
desloratadine and prednisolone over the isolated administration of desloratadine in
treatment from moderate to severe allergic rhinitis in children. The aim is to provide a
new effective, safe and well-tolerated therapeutic option for dealing with these cases.
Multicenter, randomized, parallel group, double blind, double-dummy, superiority
comparative clinical trial.
Children aged ≥ 6 years and < 12 years with moderate to severe persistent allergic
rhinitis unresponsive to optimal treatment, including daily use of intranasal
corticosteroids, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive FDC desloratadine
0.5mg/mL/prednisolone 4mg/mL - gel for oral administration by Eurofarma Laboratórios SA
(experimental drug) or desloratadine 0.5mg/mL - syrup, for five (05) days.
⚠️Study will only be conducted in research centers in Brazil (please do not send e-mail
