Full title of the trial

A multicentre randomised placebo-controlled double-blind clinical trial for evaluation of the optimal dose for safety and efficacy of specific immunotherapy with an aluminium hydroxide-adsorbed Allergoid Preparation of House Dust Mite (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) in patients with controlled allergic bronchial asthma + rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis

Wieloośrodkowe badanie kliniczne z randomizacją i kontrolą placebo, prowadzone metodą podwójnie ślepej próby, celem oceny optymalnie dawki dla bezpieczeństwa i skuteczności leku w immunoterapii swoistej preparatem alergoidu roztoczy kurzu domowego gatunku Dermatophagoides pteronysisinus adsorbowanym na wodorotlenku glinu u pacjentów z kontrolowaną, alergiczną astmą oskrzelową oraz alergicznym zapaleniem błony śluzowej nosa i spojówek

E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation

E.1.1

Medical condition(s) being investigated

Controlled allergic bronchial asthma + rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis induced by house dust mite

E.1.1.1

Medical condition in easily understood language

Allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis induced by house dust mite

E.1.1.2

Therapeutic area

Diseases [C] - Respiratory Tract Diseases [C08]

MedDRA Classification

E.1.3

Condition being studied is a rare disease

E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the optimal dose for efficacy and tolerability of specific immunotherapy with an aluminium hydroxide-adsorbed allergoid preparation of major allergens of D. pteronyssinus in patients with controlled allergic asthma (acc. to GINA 2006) + allergic rhinoconjunctivitis caused by house dust mite.

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

Not applicable

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

Yes

E.2.3.1

Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives

The intracutaneous test (ICT) will be used as provocation test and tool for the main objective of the trial. An optimal test concentration and point of time for the ICT will be assessed by a sub-study.
Three concentrations of ICT solutions will be tested in randomized groups. Results of the ICT late phase reaction will be obtained at four different points of time for each of the three investigated ICT-concentrations. The optimal concentration and point of time of the ICT will be used in the randomized, placebo-controlled dose finding study part at baseline and after treatment to assess efficacy.

E.3

Principal inclusion criteria

Has the patient given informed consent according to local requirements before any trial-related activities? (A trial-related activity is any procedure that would not have been performed during the routine management of the patient.)
Is the patient a legally competent male or female outpatient?
Is the patient aged 18-40 year?
Does the patient suffer from IgE-mediated allergic asthma (controlled, acc. to GINA 2006) + rhinoconjunctivitis induced by house dust mite documented by
skin prick test (SPT) wheal for D. pteronyssinus > 3 mm in diameter and histamine (0.1% histamine) wheal >3mm and a negative control reaction (NaCL) wheal <2mm and Immunoassay result > 1.5kU/L to D. pteronyssinus and proven clinical relevance of house dust mite allergy by positive conjunctival provocation testing with D. pteronyssinus allergens and main symptoms of asthma and rhinitis in the months September to February or over the entire year on exposure to house-dust mites and requirement of inhaled corticosteroid treatment with Fluticasone equivalent up to a maximum dose of 500µg per day and confirmed asthma diagnosis and asthma classification as “controlled” according to GINA guidelines (version 2006)

E.4

Principal exclusion criteria

Has the patient undergone previous specific immunotherapy with house dust mite allergens in any formulation?
Is the patient currently undergoing any sort of immunotherapy?
Has the patient ever undergone specific immunotherapy with unknown allergen?
Has the patient a sensitisation to storage mites and any other allergen as determined by serum immunoassay that exceeds the sensitisation to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus or Dermatophagoides farinae more than 10%? Has the patient clinical relevant symptoms to other perennial allergens or sensitisation (SPT > 3mm or immunoassay > 0.7 kUL) against perennial or seasonal allergens which interfere with the assessment period of September to December and can the clinical relevance not be excluded by a provocation test? Does the patient have a positive pregnancy test before the baseline phase?
Does the patient use an unacceptable and unreliable contraceptive method during the trial?
Is the patient pregnant or wishes to breast feed?
Is the patient seeking to become pregnant?
And the usual exclusion criteria for immunotherapy regarding health status and medication requirement.

E.5 End points

E.5.1

Primary end point(s)

The primary endpoint for evaluating the efficacy of the four different doses of active treatment in comparison to placebo is the absolute change of the swelling area of the late response reaction after intracutaneous testing with a solution of Dermato¬phagoi¬des pteronyssinus from baseline to the measurement after treatment. The concentration injected in the ICT as well as the time-point for the assessment of the late phase reaction is determined in a pre study part that is conducted before the dose finding part.

E.5.1.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

At baseline before teatment 4th quarter 2012 andt after treatment 4th quarter 2013.

E.5.2

Secondary end point(s)

Immunological changes: House-Dust-Mite.-specific IgE, IgG and IgG4 at start of therapy compared to end of treatment
The absolute change of the wheal diameter 20 min (early response) after intracutaneous testing with a solution of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus from baseline to the measurement after one year of treatment.
The change of the minimal asthma control dose assessed by Asthma Control Test (ACT) before and after treatment.
Change of the score assessed by ACT before and after treatment. The score of ACT will be compared at the same corticoid dose: the first step down dose at baseline without asthma control.
Change of morning PEF before and after treatment.
Safety of treatments during uptitration and the entire treatment period as assessed by the occurrence of adverse events, the change of laboratory values and vital signs.

E.5.2.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

At baseline before teatment Nov. 2012 - Jan. 2013 and after treatment Nov. 2013 - Jan. 2014.
