Efficacy and Safety of the Lysobact Complete Spray®, Tantum Verde® and Pharyngal® Oromucosal Spray in the Treatment of Acute Sore Throat

A Phase 3 interventional study of Lysobact Complete Sprey and Tantum Verde® Spray in Sore Throat, sponsored by Bosnalijek D.D. Completed at 1 site in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-03-16.

Primary conditionPharyngitis(the registry's first term)UnverifiedIs this wrong?The registry often attaches Pharyngitis to studies about something else, and this study's title and listed conditions do not name it. No better condition is named, so the registry's term is kept.

Study summary

The primary objective of this multicenter, single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, prospective, comparative study with parallel design and 4-arms is to evaluate superiority of Lysobact Complete Spray® against placebo and non inferiority of Lysobact Complete Spray® against active comparators (Tantum Verde® and Pharyngal®) in terms of efficacy based on the pain VAS scores evaluated by the patient using Sore Throat Pain Intensity Scale (STPIS).

Read the detailed description

This study will be conducted in approximately 3 centers in Bosnia Herzegovina and in 4 centers in Turkey.

Primary objective:

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate superiority of Lysobact Complete Spray® against placebo and non inferiority of Lysobact Complete Spray® against active comparators (Tantum Verde® and Pharyngal®) in terms of efficacy based on the pain VAS scores evaluated by the patient using Sore Throat Pain Intensity Scale (STPIS).

Secondary objective(s):

  • Safety evaluation of Lysobact Complete Spray®, Tantum Verde® Spray, Pharyngal® Oromucosal Spray, based on the frequency and nature of adverse events occurring during treatment period.
  • Extent of change in difficulty in swallowing, evaluated on the basis of Difficulty in Swallowing Scale (DSS), on Day 2, Day 4 and Day 6, as compared with baseline.
  • Extent of change in swollen throat evaluation based on Swollen Throat Scale (STS) on Day 2, Day 4 and Day 6, as compared with baseline.
  • Change in frequency of study treatment applications on Day 2, Day 4 and Day 6, as compared with baseline.

Test product: Lysobact Complete Spray® Active comparator product: Tantum Verde® Spray Active comparator product: Pharyngal® Oromucosal Spray Placebo product: Placebo

Primary endpoint:

  • Primary endpoint is the change from baseline to Day 6 in mean VAS score for STPIS.

Secondary endpoint(s):

Secondary endpoints are as follows:

  • change from baseline to Day 6 in mean VAS score for DSS
  • change from baseline to Day 6 in mean VAS score for SwoTS
  • change from baseline to each visit (Day 2, Day 4, Day 6) for STPIS , DSS and SwoTS
  • percent improvement from baseline to each visit (Day 2, Day 4, Day 6) for STPIS , DSS and SwoTS
  • Incidence of adverse events and relationship to the study treatments
  • Incidence of serious adverse events and relationship to the study treatments

Statistical methods:

All patients who have received at least one dose of any study medication will be included in the safety evaluation (safety population). Patients who have completed all visits according to the protocol will be included in the efficacy population. The superiority and inferiority of Lysobact Complete Spray® will be tested in hierarchical order by the comparison of the mean change of VAS scores [Sore Throat Pain Intensity Scale (STPIS)] from baseline to Day 2, 4 and 6.

Planned treatment duration is 5 days. Safety will be followed-up until Day 6. End of study is defined as the end of the follow up period for the last patient.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 16, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
