Aim:
A 1-year follow-up study comparing the safety and tolerability of the dosing schedules, satisfaction and effectiveness of a novel microcrystalline tyrosine-adsorbed mite (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus)-allergoid subcutaneous immunotherapy (Acarovac Plus™) in 30 adult patients (18-65 years) with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma.
Materials & Methods:
The effectiveness of the product was assessed by nasal provocation test measuring peak nasal inspiratory flow/symptoms, in vitro immunologic changes (IgE, IgG4 and IL-10) and Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication.
Results:
No adverse events were reported during dosing schedules. Significant decreases in symptom scores and drop of peak nasal inspiratory flow in follow-up visits (4 weeks and 1 year) were recorded. Significant increases in IgG4-specific antibody titers and IL-10 were exhibited.
Conclusion:
Significant decreases in clinical symptoms and immunological parameters were observed, accompanying a high level of patient satisfaction and tolerance.
