  • Ages 5 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The target population included adult patients, adolescents and children (aged ≥5 years) with an allergy to one or more allergens confirmed by a positive skin prick-test and/or the presence of specific IgE antibodies, and eligible for AIT.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients aged 5 years or older
  • Patients with a respiratory allergy with significant clinical symptoms and whose diagnosis was confirmed by a positive skin prick-test and/or the presence of specific IgE antibodies to one or more allergens implicated in the symptoms
  • Patients eligible for AIT (patients who had been treated with AIT in the 3 years prior to the inclusion visit could be included if starting a new form and/or type of AIT)
  • Patients previously treated with a pharmacological AR treatment in the month before the inclusion visit or during the previous pollen season, and requiring the initiation of AIT
  • Patients (and/or their parents or legal representatives as appropriate) agreeing to take part in the study after having been informed orally and in writing by the observing physician.

Who cannot join

  • Patient with a hypersensitivity (allergy) to any of the excipients in the selected AIT
  • Patients taking beta-blockers (including local treatments, e.g. eye drops)
  • If asthmatic patient:
  • Patients with uncontrolled (unstable) or severe asthma (in adults this was defined as daily symptoms and FEV1 <70% of the theoretical value after appropriate drug treatment, and in children and adolescents by FEV1 <80% of the theoretical value after appropriate drug treatment)
  • Patients who have had a severe asthma exacerbation in the last three months
  • Asthmatic patient with unresolved acute infection of the airways.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation in Routine Practice of the Benefits of Sublingual Allergen Immunotherapy in Allergic Patients According to Different Modalities of Use

The objective of the study was to evaluate in routine practice the benefits of sublingual allergen immunotherapy (SLIT) for allergic patients with allergic rhinitis (AR), with or without asthma, according to various methods of use (treatment regimen: formulation type, dose, duration, initiation) and type of allergen (grass pollen, tree pollen, herbaceous pollen, house dust mites, animal dander, moulds and poly-reactive types).

Read the detailed description

The treatment considered was any SLIT (tablet or liquid forms) accepted by the patient and the parent(s) in the case of minor patients. The treatment was taken as prescribed by the observing physician.

The expected benefits for patients after approximately 6 and 12 months after initiation of SLIT included:

  • Decreased intensity of symptoms
  • Decreased discomfort
  • Decreased consumption of symptomatic treatments or associated treatments (especially in asthmatic patients)
  • Improved quality of life
  • Reduced absenteeism from school or work
  • Beneficial impact on leisure activities.

What is being measured

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

  1. PBQ (Patient Benefit Questionnaire)

    The Patient Benefit Questionnaire (PBQ) was used as the primary endpoint to evaluate the benefits perceived by patients.

    Measured: V1 / V2 (6, 9 or 12 months after treatment initiation)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. PNQ (Patient Need Questionnaire)

    The Patient Need Questionnaire (PNQ) was used to evaluate the expectations of patients regarding the prescription or new treatment(s) prescribed by the observing physicians.

    Measured: V1 (at study inclusion)

  2. PBI Patient Benefit Index

    The overall PBI score was calculated using the PNQ questionnaire at V1 (treatment expectations) and the PBQ questionnaire at V2 (treatment benefits).

    PBI is an index of the benefits perceived by patients with the AIT received. It considers patient expectations prior to AIT treatment and the perceived benefits after treatment.

    A PBI ≥1 is considered as indicating a relevant benefit of the AIT treatment for the patient

    Measured: Patient self-questionnaires returned at V1 (at study inclusion) and V2 (6, 9 or 12 months after treatment initiation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Allergic Rhinitis, run by Stallergenes Greer at 1 site in France.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Aug 2024. 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 France. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

PBQ (Patient Benefit Questionnaire) (time frame: V1 / V2 (6, 9 or 12 months after treatment initiation)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 29 Aug 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
