研究概览
简要总结
The objective of this study is to determine the biologic activity of a Platanus acerifolia allergen extract in histamine equivalent prick (HEP) units, in order to be used as in-house reference preparation (IHRP).
详细描述
This is an open, unblinded and non-randomized biological assay. The study design is a slight modification of the recommendations proposed by the Nordic Guidelines.
Four concentrations of Platanus acerifolia allergen extract, together with a positive and negative control, using 10 mg/ml histamine dihydrochloride solution and a glycerinated phenol saline solution, respectively, will be tested in every patient in duplicate on the volar surface of the forearm.

入选标准
- •Subject has provided written informed consent, appropriately signed and dated by the subject (or legal representative, if applicable).
- •Subject can be male or female of any race and ethnic group.
- •Age > and =18 years and < and =60 years at the study inclusion day.
- •Positive skin prick test with a standardized commercially available preparation of Platanus acerifolia allergen extract. The skin prick test will be considered positive if the test results in a wheal major diameter of at least 3 mm or an area at least 7 mm
- •Positive skin prick test results are valid if performed within one year prior to the inclusion of the subject in the study
- •A positive test for specific IgE to Platanus acerifolia (CAP-RAST major or equal to 2). IgE results are valid if performed within oneyear prior to the inclusion of the subject in the study.
- •Allergic symptoms during the pollen season of Platanus acerifolia.
- •Medical history positive allergy inhalation (rhinitis and /or rhinoconjunctivitis and/or asthma) from Platanus acerifolia.
排除标准
- •Immunotherapy in the past 5 years with an allergen preparation known to interfere with the allergen to be tested due to a high degree of cross-reactivity (for example:other species of Platanus: Platanus orientalis, Platanus occidentalis).
- •Use of drugs that may interfere with the skin reactions (e.g., antihistamines). See Appendix 1 of the protocol.
- •Treatment with any of the following medications: oral tricyclic or tetracyclic antidepressants or IMAOs, beta-blockers, chronic use of corticosteroids or use of oral or parenteral corticosteroids in repeated and intermittent patterns (10 mg/daily of prednisone or equivalent).
- •Women who are pregnant or period of breastfeeding and women with a pregnancy test positive during the visit 2, prior to the prick test.
- •Dermographism affecting the skin area at the test site at either study visit.
- •Atopic dermatitis affecting the skin area at the test site at either study visit.
- •Urticaria affecting the skin area at the test site at either study visit.
- •Diseases of the immune system relevant clinically, both autoimmune and immunodeficiencies.
- •Serious diseases not controlled that may increase the risk for the safety of the subjects involved in this study, including, but not limited to the following: heart failure, uncontrolled or severe respiratory diseases,endocrine diseases, clinically relevant kidney or liver diseases or hematological diseases.
- •Participation in any other clinical trial within 30 days (or 5 times the biological half-life of the research of the study product, whichever is longer) prior to the inclusion of the subject in this clinical trial.
- •Patients with diseases or conditions that limit the use of adrenaline (heart disease, severe hypertension, ..)
- •Severe psychiatric, psychological or neurological disorders
- •Abuse of alcohol, drugs or medicines in the previous year.
