Trial Outcomes & Findings for Latera RCT - Latera vs. Sham Control for Lateral Nasal Valve Collapse (NCT NCT03400787)

NCT ID: NCT03400787

Last Updated: 2021-02-09

Results Overview

The primary endpoint of the study is the NOSE Responder Rate, assessed 3 months post-procedure in the per-protocol population of the Latera and Sham arms. The Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) is a validated patient-reported outcome assessment of 5 questions relating to nasal obstruction (congestion, obstruction, trouble breathing through the nose, trouble sleeping, unable to breath through the nose during exercise/exertion. Each question is rated on a Likert scale of 0 (no problem) to 4 (severe problem). The sum of the scores is multiplied by 5 to result in a total score that ranges from 0 to 100. NOSE scores can also be categorized as mild (5-25), moderate (30-50), severe (55-75), and extreme (80-100). A NOSE responder is defined as a participant with at least 1 NOSE class improvement or at least 20% total NOSE score reduction.

Measure
Sham Control Arm
Subjects in the Sham Control arm will undergo the same preoperative assessments as those in the Latera Treatment arm up to and including anesthesia for the implant, however, no implant will be placed. Crossover - Subjects will be unblinded after the 3-month assessment is complete. Eligible subjects in the Sham Control arm will be treated with the Latera Implant if they still meet all eligibility criteria. Follow up will continue to 24 months post-implant. Subjects who no longer meet the eligibility criteria will exit the study. Latera Implant: Treatment
