简要总结
Investigation of the clinical efficacy of 3 intralymphatic injections with grass pollen extract into inguinal lymph nodes on combined symptom-medication scores during grass pollen season in grass pollen allergic patients compared to placebo
详细描述
A double-blind, parallel group, placebo controlled multi-site trial of the clinical efficacy of 3 intralymphatic injections with a low dose of grass pollen extract into inguinal lymph nodes in grass pollen allergic subjects.
Primary endpoint is the difference in combined symptom and medication score during grass pollen seasons following treatment compared with patients receiving placebo.
Injections are giving ultrasound-guided with at least 4 weeks intervals.
To increase trial retention, two studies within the trial are conducted: a feasibility study assessing the acceptability and feasibility of a digital intervention and its evaluation design. Outcomes include participant and stakeholder acceptability, reach, mechanisms of change to improve trial retention, utilization, unintended effects, software functionality, recruitment and retention rates, questionnaire suitability, randomization feasibility, power for a future definitive trial, and initial efficacy signals. Additionally, an evaluation study assesses the efficacy of the intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
Combined symptom and medication score, cSMS
时间窗: 2 years
daily combined symptom and medication scores during grass pollen seasons in 2022 and 2023 as compared to placebo. cSMS is a combined score of a symptom score, 0-3, where 0 indicates no symptoms and 3 indicates severe symptoms and meddication score 0-3 according to the us of reliever medication: 0: no medication, 1: antihistamine use, 2: local steroid use, 3: systemic steroid use. This results in a score ranging from 0 (no symptoms, no need for medications) to 6 (severe symptoms and need for maximum reliever medication
次要结局
- correlation of CSMS to pollen count(2 years)
- combined symptom and medication score, cSMS(2 years)
- Airwave oscillometry system(AOS), asthma(2 years)
- side-effects(3 months)
- Rhinitis related quality of life, RQLQ(2 years)
