Filter by:The present study investigates the reaction of the skin upon exposure to house dust mite (HDM) in patients with atopic dermatitis who have antibodies against HDM in the blood. A further aim is to assess nasal symptoms after exposure to HDM in an allergen challenge chamber and compare the results with data from previous studies.
About 20% of the general population are affected by an allergy - with an upward trend. Quite often, allergic people do not consider their disease as serious and suffer from subsequent complications, like allergic asthma, later in their life. The sooner the allergen source is identified, the sooner the therapeutic intervention (e.g. dietary recommendations, allergen avoidance, anti-inflammatory treatment or allergen immunotherapy) can be started. Cross-reactivity may also play an important role. Therefore, a comprehensive allergy test is essential for an optimal treatment of patients. Modern multiplex testing is an individualized diagnostic approach, which may help to identify eligible patients for allergen immunotherapy and may identify risk groups by analyzing the sIgE profile. Until now, published data on the clinical usability of multiplex allergy diagnostic test systems are often limited. Even though, available studies show a good correlation between conventionally used multiplex or singleplex assays (ISAC or ImmunoCAP) and the new multiplex assay (ALEX and ALEX²), the results are often based on small sample sizes investigating many different allergens. Therefore, this clinical performance study is conducted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the ALEX² IgE multiplex test using the Multi Array Explorer (MAX 45k, MacroArray Diagnostics) automated laboratory system in comparison to a conventional IgE singleplex test system as well as clinical symptoms and skin prick test results in a total of 826 patients. Patients with the most common inhalant allergies (e.g. grass pollen, house dust mite or cat allergy) will be included as well as patients suffering from Hymenoptera venom allergy, which is the major cause of anaphylaxis.
hdmASIT+TM product is based on highly purified allergen fragments from house dust mites. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and clinical tolerability of subcutaneous immunotherapy with hdmASIT+TM in patients with house dust mite-induced allergic rhinoconjunctivitis compared to placebo.
The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 months of treatment with 300 IR of STG320 sublingual tablets compared with placebo in adults and adolescents with HDM-associated allergic rhinitis.
Allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis is a symptomatic disorder of the nose induced by an immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated inflammatory response. Treatment may involve pharmacotherapy and specific immunotherapy (IT). IT represents the only treatment that might alter the natural course of the disease. The amount of administered allergen is crucial for both efficacy and safety of specific IT. SUBLIVAC FIX Mite mixture is a preparation for sublingual IT (SLIT) and is indicated for the treatment of allergic disorders such as allergic rhinitis and rhinoconjunctivitis, caused by sensitisation to house dust mite (HDM) allergens. According to the European Medicines Agency Guideline on the clinical development of products for specific IT for the treatment of allergic diseases, products should be tested at different dosages to provide preliminary data on safety and tolerability with regard to the maximum tolerated dose and suitable dose escalation scheme. This trial is designed to investigate the tolerability and safety of different dosages of SUBLIVAC FIX Mite mixture.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of different doses of sublingual tablets of house dust mite allergen extracts as compared to placebo in adults with house dust mite-associated allergic asthma.
House Dust Mites (HDM) are arachnids that infest bedding, carpet, upholstered furniture and fabric. Like many other allergens, exposure to HDM allergens in sensitised patients is associated with poorer lung function, greater medication requirements and more asthma symptoms as well as chronic rhinosinusitis symptoms. In contrast to other allergens, there is evidence that HDMA leads to the development of asthma, in addition to exacerbating pre-existing asthma in HDM-sensitised patients. ToleroMune HDM is currently being developed for the treatment of HDM allergy. The Purpose of this optional observational follow-on study is to evaluate the continued efficacy of TM-HDM in HDM allergic subjects based on change in TRSS from TH002 baseline approximately two years after the completion of the baseline EEC visit in TH002 following challenge with HDM allergen in an EEC.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety of different doses of sublingual tablets of house dust mite allergen extracts in adults with house dust mite-associated allergic asthma.
The primary aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the ALK house dust mite tablet given once daily compared to a placebo tablet in the treatment of house dut mite allergic rhinits. Additionally the secondary objective of the trial is to evaluate the safety and tolarability of the ALK house dust mite tablet. Immunotherapy has been shown to provide therapeutic benefits to subjects with house dust mite induced allergy. This trial is planned to investigate if clinically relevant improvements in rhinitis symptoms and with less use of symptomatic medication can be obtained in subjects with a history of poor didease control despite of use of symptomatic medications.
The present study is aimed to evaluate a bronchial allergen challenge with house dust mite and alternaria. Firstly, the years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 will be retrospectively reviewed. Secondly, in 2010-2013, in the prospective part of the study the patients will undergo the bronchial allergen challenge to examine safety of the bronchial allergen challenge and change of allergen specific bronchial hyperreactivity before and after allergen specific immunotherapy.
