Prospective, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of polymerized and mannan conjugated allergen extract of Dermatophagoides for the treatment of allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without asthma.
The main objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the investigational medicinal product, administered sublingually, compared to placebo for the treatment of moderate-severe rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without mild to moderate asthma and controlled using the Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis Combined Symptom and Medication Score (R-CSMS).
Read the detailed description
Allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) has been shown to be effective in relieving symptoms, reducing medication use, and improving quality of life in patients with respiratory allergies). This is thought to be due to the induction of a state of tolerance to specific allergens with long-lasting effects after discontinuation of treatment. And it is accepted that immunotherapy is the only available method for allergists to improve or cure, partially or definitely, an allergic process The study population of this clinical trial will comprise subjects allergic to mites (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and/or D. farinae) with symptoms of moderate-severe rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without mild to severe controlled asthma, suitable to allergen immunotherapy.
The primary efficacy endpoint will be the combined rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis symptom and medication score.
Every single day from the beginning of the administration of the investigational drug (V2-VF), the subject will be asked to score and register his/her symptoms and record medication consumption in an electronic diary following the instructions of the application. This diary will provide the symptom score and medication consumption for each subject during the trial.

- Total and specific IgG
Measured: Month 2 and month 7
Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ)
Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) consists of 32 items and 4 domains (symptoms, activity limitations, emotional function and environmental stimuli). Each item is scored from 1 ("no impairment") to 7 ("severe impairment")
Measured: Month 2 and month 7
Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ)
The Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) consists of 28 items (questions) and 7 domains (Activities, Sleep, General symptoms, Practical problems, Nose symptoms, Eye symptoms and Emotional).

Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ 6)
The Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-6) consists of 6 questions. In questions 1-6, subjects recall their experience over the past 7 days and respond using a 7-point scale from 0 ("totally controlled") to 6 ("extremely poorly controlled"). The score of the questionnaire is the mean of the 6 answers (i.e., the sum of the 6 answers divided by 6). The interpretation of the scores is as follows:
- Less than or equal to 0.75: Adequate asthma control
- From 0.75 to 1.50: Partially controlled asthma
- Over 1.50: Inadequate asthma control
Measured: 4 months

The ACQ questionnaire consists of 7 questions (ACQ-7) In questions 1-6, patients recall their experience during the last 7 days and answer using a scale of 7 points (from 0 = fully controlled to 6 = extremely poorly controlled). The seventh question, which refers to the% FEV1 of the reference value, must be completed by an employee of the site. The questionnaire score is the mean of the 7 responses (ACQ-7)
The interpretation of the scores is as follows:
- Less than or equal to 0.75: Adequate control of asthma
- From 0.75 to 1.50: Partially controlled asthma
- More than 1.50: Inadequate asthma control
Measured: 6 months
Visual Analogue Scales (VAS)
The visual analogue scale is a 10 cm straight line, where the left end means that the subject feels very bad, and the right end means that the subject feels very well. Throughout the trial, two VAS scale measurements will be used:
- Subject's VAS, where the participant marks a dot on the line that matches his or her health status with respect to allergy symptoms.
- Investigator's VAS, where the investigator must mark a dot on the line that matches the subject's health status with respect to allergy symptoms.
Measured: 7 months
Consumption of health resources
For each subject, the number of times that due to allergy symptoms has done the following will be counted:
- have visited the family doctor
- have made an unscheduled visit to the specialist
- has gone to the emergency room
- has been hospitalized
- have needed to contact the doctor by phone
Measured: 7 months
Security parameters
Global rate and severity of Adverse Events (AE) per administration and per subject
Measured: Month 2 and month 7
Number of Local Adverse Reactions
Local adverse reactions are those that appear at the site of the administration. They are classified into: Immediate (it appears during the first 30 minutes from the administration of investigational product) and Late (it appears after the first 30 minutes from the administration of investigational product)
Measured: 6 months
Number of Systemic Adverse Reactions
Systemic adverse reactions are those that appear in other parts of the body other than the site of administration. Their severity will be classified according to World Allergy Organization, measured according to the following grades:
- 1: Symptoms or signs present in a system/organ (cutaneous, Upper respiratory tract, Conjunctival or Other)
- 2: Symptoms or signs of 2 or more organs systems listed in Grade 1
- 3: Lower airway disease: Mild bronchospasm and/or Gastrointestinal/Abdominal cramps and/or vomiting/diarrhoea/Other Uterine cramps/Any symptoms/signs from grade 1 would be included.

- 5: Lower or upper airway: Respiratory failure and/or Cardiovascular /Collapse/hypotension and/or Loss of consciousness (vasovagal excluded)/Any symptoms/signs from grades 1,3, or 4 would be included.
Measured: 6 months
Number of Adverse Reactions to any medication
Number of Adverse Reactions to any medication administered for the treatment of AE/AR
Measured: 7 months
Treatment adherence
At each visit, a new bottle shall be provided to the subject and the previous bottle shall be collected. The amount remaining in each returned bottle shall be analysed to assess adherence to treatment.
Measured: 6 months
Compliance of the electronic diary
All subjects included in the trial will download the "ITK Diary Card" app on their mobile phone, which will be used as the subject's electronic diary. Subjects will fill in their symptoms and medication intake.
At each visit, the investigator should review the subject's electronic diary to ensure compliance.
For the calculation of the main variable, only those subjects that have reported data corresponding to at least 40% of the days will be considered. Therefore, for subjects with less than 40% of the reported data, the main variable cannot be calculated.
Measured: 6 months

Every single day from the beginning of the administration of the investigational drug (V2-VF), the subject will be asked to score and register his/her symptoms and record medication consumption in an electronic diary following the instructions of the application. This diary will provide the symptom score and medication consumption for each subject during the trial.

Primary outcome
Rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis Combined Symptom and Medication Score (RCSMS)
Time frame: 6 months
Assessment of the number of rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms and medication consumption required to control these symptoms for each subject during the trial, for each group compared to the others, and compared to placebo. Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis Combined Symptom and Medication Score will be based on the work done by Pfaar et al. The score for each rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis symptom will be 0 = No symptoms; 1 = Mild; 2 = Moderate; 3 = Severe. Total daily symptom score = 0-3 The score for Rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis medication will be: 0 = No medication; 1 = Oral or topical (eye or nose) non-sedating H1 antihistamines (H1A); 2 = Intranasal corticosteroids (INS) with/without H1A; 3 = Oral corticosteroids with/without (INS), with/without H1A. Total daily medication score = 0-3

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing 3,000 MM09 and 9,000 MM09 in people with Allergic Rhinitis and Allergic Asthma, run by Inmunotek S.L. at 1 site in Argentina.
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 15 inclusion and 20 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2023. 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 Argentina. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
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 combined phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Miguel Casanovas, MD, PhD ((+34) 691490175, mcasanovas@inmunotek.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis Combined Symptom and Medication Score (RCSMS) (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05641272, which also lists 7 linked publications.
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 23 Oct 2023.
