This prospective multicentric academic NAPT study aims to compile a database of all patients who initiate immunotherapy. The NAPT will take place before, during and after AIT to evaluate the cost and effectiveness of the treatment. The study consists of 4 visits and 2 telephone contacts that are repeated annually for 3 years. This study will be conducted in 2 hospitals: UZ Leuven and AZ ST. Jan Brugge on the consultation Ear, Nose and Throat Diseases (ENT) and the department of Internal Medicine / Allergology
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the combination of grass allergen sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) and dupilumab for 2 years is more effective than double placebo in suppressing the nasal allergen challenge (NAC) response to grass pollen at 1 year after completion of study medication.
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is induced by an immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated reaction in the allergen-sensitized subjects, affecting 10% to 40% of the world population. AR could be divided into two kinds, perennial AR and seasonal AR (SAR). In recent years, biologics have become promising drugs for allergic diseases. The efficacy and safety of Omalizumab in treating SAR have been well proven by previous studies. However, the efficacy in preseasonal treatment for SAR has not yet been studied before.
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.
An open access study that will define and collect digital measures of coughing in multiple populations and public spaces using various means of audio data collection.
Randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled phase I study to investigate the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of DM-101 in adult subjects with birch pollen allergy.
In recent years, a number of randomized controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). Indeed, the latest American clinical guidelines recommended acupuncture treatment for AR patients who are interested in non-pharmacological treatment. In conventional acupuncture treatment for AR, needles are inserted at specific acupoints in the body; with several studies demonstrating acupuncture of sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) to improve nasal symptoms and quality of life in nasal inflammatory diseases. The investigators hypothesize that, compared with sham acupuncture and rescue medication (RM), active SPG acupuncture combined with RM would lead to greater improvements in symptoms score and reduction in overall need for antihistamines. To test this hypothesis the investigators design a randomized, double blind, controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of SPG acupuncture in pollen-induced seasonal AR patients and to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN5713-5714-5715 in healthy adult participants. The secondary objectives of the study are: In Part A and Part B: - To characterize the concentration time profile of single doses of REGN5713-5714-5715 in healthy adults - To assess the immunogenicity of single dose of REGN5713-5714-5715. In Part B: - To assess the inhibition of allergic symptoms as measured by total nasal symptom score (TNSS) provoked by a birch allergen nasal allergen challenge (NAC) in birch-sensitized allergic subjects after a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of REGN5713-5714-5715 - To assess the skin test reactivity provoked by a skin prick test (SPT) with serial birch allergen titration after a single SC dose of REGN5713-5714-5715.
There is increasing evidence that the effectiveness of allergy immunotherapy to control symptoms of rhinoconjunctivitis is related to the cumulative dose of allergen or allergoid administered during a single regimen of subcutaneous (SC) injections or of sublingual administration. Previously, high cumulative doses of the Grass MATA MPL 10200 and 18200 SU (Standardized Units) were compared with the marketed dose of 5100 SU and were found to have acceptable tolerability and safety. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of an even higher cumulative dose regimen of 35600 SU. of Grass MATA MPL compared with placebo in patients with seasonal allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (SAR) due to grass pollen, to enable selection of the best dose to take forward for further development.
