Popis: | Background Immunotherapy with peptide hydrolysates from Lolium perenne (LPP) is an alternative treatment for seasonal allergic rhinitis with or without asthma. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of a cumulative dose of 170 μg LPP administered subcutaneously over 3 weeks. Methods In a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial, 554 adults with grass pollen rhinoconjunctivitis were randomized (1:2 ratio) to receive 8 subcutaneous injections of placebo or 170 μg LPP administered in increasing doses in 4 visits over 3 weeks. The primary outcome was the combined symptom and medication score (CSMS) measured over the peak pollen season. Reactivity to conjunctival provocation test (CPT) and quality of life (QOL) were assessed as secondary endpoints. Results The mean reduction in CSMS in the LPP vs. placebo group was −15.5% (p=0.041) during the peak period and −17.9% (p= 0.029) over the entire pollen season. LPP treated group had a reduced reactivity to CPT (p |
