Comparative Study on the Amount of Steroid Residue in the Oral Cavity After Inhalation of Steroids With and Without Spacer Use
CASROC Study(Comparative Amount of Steroid Residue in Oral Cavity Study)
The Non-Blinded Study Comparing Oral Residual Fluticasone Levels After Inhalation of FP/FM-HFA with and without Spacer in Healthy Adults

The aim is to demonstrate that the use of a spacer (PARI Vortex) allows only the fine particles of inhaled corticosteroids to be inhaled, thereby reducing deposition in the oral cavity.

The median amount of oral fluticasone residue after FP FM HFA inhalation using a pressurized metered dose inhaler alone was 129.5 micrograms range 31.9 to 234.0. When a valved holding chamber was used the median residue decreased to 26.3 micrograms range 1.9 to 40.9.
This represented an approximately 80 percent reduction in oral fluticasone residue. The difference was statistically significant with a p value less than 0.001

Healthy adult men and women aged 20 years or older and younger than 65 years, with no chronic diseases, no abnormalities detected on a pre-study health examination, and no previous experience using inhalation devices or no use of inhalation devices within the past one month.
After obtaining written informed consent, participant eligibility will be assessed. Eligible participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and undergo the inhalation test according to the study protocol. Following completion of the test, oral drug deposition will be measured, and the collected data will be analyzed to complete the study.
No adverse events were observed.
