A Placebo Controlled Study With a Nasal Spray Containing Glucose Oxidase, Aiming to Induce a Faster Recovery From an Episode of Common Cold
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Glucose oxidase + glucose and Saline+glucose for Common Cold. Completed, enrolled 90 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Glucose oxidase is a hydrogen peroxide producing enzyme, which also is present in honey. Human rhinoviruses are sensitive to the action of hydrogen peroxide, which is documented in laboratory studies. In the present study we aim to investigate if a nasal spray with glucose oxidase could treat a common cold, when the treatment is started even after the onset of the symptoms. The study is randomized and placebo controlled.
