About this study

Official title: Influences of Allergic Rhinitis and Allergen Immunotherapy on Human Antibody Responses to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination

The study is designed to assess whether allergic rhinitis and allergen immunotherapy affect the humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in adults. This is a prospective study enrolling a total of approximately 120 subjects, 18-55 years old.

Read the detailed description

Background: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a disorder caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to harmless allergens in the environment, which represents a global public health problem affecting up to 20-50% of the population. Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is the only effective treatment that not only has disease-modifying property but also confers long-term clinical benefit after cessation of treatment for AR patients. Vaccination is one of the most powerful interventions for reducing disability and death caused by infectious disease. Immunization with the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine remains the most effective strategy to combat COVID-19 infections. Nevertheless, the influences of allergic rhinitis and allergen immunotherapy on SARS-CoV-2 vaccination are still unknown.

Objectives: To investigate if AR and AIT will influence the humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in adults.

Design and trial size: This is a prospective study. A total of approximately 120 subjects, 18-55 years old, including 40 healthy subjects, 40 patients with AR without AIT, and 40 patients with AR with AIT for more than 1 year, will be enrolled in this study.

Intervention and duration: All of the study participants will be vaccinated with an 2 doses inactivated vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 (COVILO). Peripheral blood samples will be collected at baseline (prior to vaccinate), 7 and 30 after first vaccine, and, 7 and 30 after second vaccine. One-month additional data analysis leads to the trial duration of 3 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Allergic Rhinitis and Allergen Immunotherapy, run by Huazhong University of Science and Technology at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Virus-specific antibodies levels in serum and humoral immune response as measured by ELISA or HAI assay (time frame: Jun 2021-Aug 2021). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05009134, which also lists 2 linked publications.
