About this study

Official title: A Randomised,Double-blind,Placebo-controlled,Multi National,Phase III Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of 300 IR Sublingual Immunotherapy Administered as Allergen-based Tablets Once Daily to Adolescents and Children Above the Age of 5 Years, Suffering From House Dust Mite Allergic Rhinitis

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of one dose of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) administered to children and adolescents as allergen-based tablets once daily over a period of 24 months over 3 years compared to placebo, for reduction of allergic rhinitis symptoms and rescue medication use.

Read the detailed description

After the screening period, the patients will be administered 300 IR house dust mite allergen based tablets or placebo, once a day, for a period of 36 months with two windows of 8 months and 6 months without treatment. The carry over effect will be evaluated after a treatment free follow up period of 24 months.

An independent Data Monitoring Committee will be constituted to evaluate the efficacy and safety data at the end of Year 1 and Year 3, and the post-treatment long-term efficacy data at the end of year 4.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Average Adjusted Symptom Score (AASS) During the Treatment Period

    The primary efficacy endpoint was the Average Adjusted Symptom Score (AAdSS) during the period from 1 October 2010 to 30 November 2010 (Year 1 Primary Period) assessed in the Full Analysis Set defined for Year 1. The Average Adjusted Symptom Score (AAdSS) ranges from 0 to 12, with a higher score meaning a worse outcome.

    It is a score assessing four rhinitis symptoms: sneezing, rhinorrhoea, nasal pruritus and nasal congestion, adjusted on the rescue medication intake

    Measured: Year 1 Primary Period = 01 OCT to 30 NOV 2010 The value was obtained by averaging the daily scores over the primary period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 300 IR house dust mites allergen extract tablet in people with Allergic Rhinitis Due to Dust Mite, run by Stallergenes Greer.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Feb 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average Adjusted Symptom Score (AASS) During the Treatment Period (time frame: Year 1 Primary Period = 01 OCT to 30 NOV 2010 The value was obtained by averaging the daily scores over the primary period). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01199133, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Feb 2025.
