ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:
NCT00562120
First received: November 19, 2007
Last updated: November 12, 2010

  Purpose

An H3 receptor antagonist should reduce the congestion associated with allergic rhinitis. A nasal allergen challenge will be given to patients to induce rhinitis symptoms and acoustic rhinometry will be used to measure the congestion.

Arms Assigned Interventions
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Drug: Placebo
A single oral dose of Placebo is dosed during the study in order to ascertain the effect of placebo on measures and in order to maintain the blind of the other drugs.
Active Comparator: Allegra Drug: Allegra
A single oral dose of Allegra is dosed to subjects in combination with PF-03654746.
Active Comparator: Allegra-D Drug: Allegra-D
A single oral dose of Allegra-D is dosed to subjects as an active comparator.
Experimental: PF-03654746 Drug: PF-03654746
A single oral dose of PF-03654746 is the investigational drug being studied.
