New Data Shows Veramyst Effectively Treats Symptoms of Perennial Allergic Rhinitis
Date:11/11/2007

Study Also Demonstrated Significant Improvement in Eye Symptoms

DALLAS, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Veramyst(TM) (fluticasone furoate) Nasal Spray demonstrated significant improvement in the treatment of nasal and ocular allergy symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR) in patients 12 years of age and older, according to a clinical study presented today at the annual scientific meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI).

Perennial allergic rhinitis, or PAR, refers to allergy symptoms that occur year-round in response to triggers such as dust mites, animal dander and mold. Seasonal allergic rhinitis, or SAR, refers to only seasonal symptoms, for example an allergic response to springtime pollen.

Results of this 6-week global clinical study showed that Veramyst 110 mcg administered once-daily was significantly more effective than placebo in relieving overall nasal allergy symptoms (nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, sneezing and nasal itching), the primary efficacy endpoint. Veramyst also showed statistically significant improvement in relieving overall eye symptoms (itching/burning, tearing/watering and eye redness), a secondary study endpoint. Veramyst administered once-daily also provided sustained, 24-hour efficacy for both nasal and eye symptoms of perennial allergies.

"This study demonstrated the efficacy of Veramyst for patients suffering from both nasal and ocular symptoms all year long, not just during spring and fall allergy seasons," said study author Eli Meltzer, M.D., co-director of the Allergy & Asthma Medical Group and Research Center in San Diego, Calif. "The 24-hour relief from symptoms is also a key patient benefit."

In the 6-week double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 302 individuals 12 years of age and older, were randomized to receive either Veramyst 110 mcg once daily or placebo. Patients rated their nasal symptoms (nasal congestion, itching, rhinorrhea and sneezing) and eye symptom
