Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety Study of SCH 900237/MK-8237 in Children and Adults With House Dust Mite-Induced Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis (P05607) (NCT NCT01700192)

NCT ID: NCT01700192

Last Updated: 2017-09-15

Results Overview

The TCRS is the sum of the rhinitis Daily Symptom Score (DSS; range: 0 to 12) and the rhinitis Daily Medication Score (DMS; range: 0 to 12); the total possible TCRS ranges from 0 to 24 points with higher scores indicative of greater symptom severity. The endpoint was calculated as the average daily diary entry score from the last 8 weeks of treatment.
