What is being measured

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

  1. Conjunctival Provocation Test (CPT) With House Dust Mite Allergen Solutions. Change of Median Individual Allergen Tolerance Compared to Baseline (Factor of Increase in Allergen Concentration to Induce a Threshold CPT Score ≥ 2)

    The outcome measure is a conjunctival provocation test (CPT) with house dust mite allergen solutions. CPT score was measured as a sum of the following assessed symptoms: conjunctival hyperemia, tearing, itching, burning and swelling of eyelids. Each of the assessed symptom could be absent (0), mild (1 point), moderate (2 points) or severe (3 points). The provocation tests started with the maximal dilution of the allergen 1:1000. If the sum of the reached CPT score was <10 points, the test continued with the next dilution step 1:100. This procedure was repeated until patients reached the CPT score ≥ 10 points or the provocation solution reached the maximal concentration 1:1 (undiluted).

    The outcome is then given as the change of median individual allergen tolerance at month two compared to baseline. The change is expressed as a factor of increase in allergen concentration to induce a threshold CPT score ≥ 2.

    Measured: baseline versus 2 months after baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety and Tolerability of the Study Treatment by Collection of Adverse Events

    Measured: about 30 min. at each visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CYT005-AllQbG10 (combination of house dust mite allergen extract with CYT003-QbG10) in people with Perennial Allergic Rhinoconjunctivitis and House Dust Mite Allergy, run by Cytos Biotechnology AG.

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 2 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 11 Jul 2013. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Jul 2013). 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?

Conjunctival Provocation Test (CPT) With House Dust Mite Allergen Solutions. Change of Median Individual Allergen Tolerance Compared to Baseline (Factor of Increase in Allergen Concentration to Induce a Threshold CPT Score ≥ 2) (time frame: baseline versus 2 months after baseline). 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 11 Jul 2013.
