E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the clinical efficacy of polymerized allergenic extracts, administered subcutaneously, compared to placebo in subjects with moderate to severe persistent/ intermittent rhinoconjunctivitis associated with mild to severe persistent/intermittent asthma in mites sensitized subjects, without sensitization to other pneumoallergens, by combining the symptoms and the consumption of the medicine necessary for the control of asthma with rhinitis / rhinoconjunctivitis. |
El objetivo principal de este ensayo es evaluar la eficacia clínica de los extractos alergénicos polimerizados, administrados por vía subcutánea, comparado con placebo en sujetos con rinoconjuntivitis persistente moderada – grave asociado a asma persistente leve-moderada controlada y que se encuentren sensibilizados a ácaros, sin sensibilización a otros neumoalergenos, mediante la puntuación combinada de síntomas y de consumo de medicación necesaria para el control del asma con rinitis/rinoconjuntivitis. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
As secondary objectives will be assessed the tolerance, changes in immunological parameters, the subject quality of life, after the treatment and the safety of the subcutaneous immunotherapy |
Como objetivos secundarios se evaluarán la tolerancia, cambios en parámetros inmunológicos, la calidad de vida del sujeto tras el tratamiento y la seguridad de la inmunoterapia subcutánea |
