Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A double-blinded, placebo-controlled, prospective, multicenter randomized of 2 active treatment groups, compared to 1 placebo group, for the determination of the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy in patients with rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with mild to moderate asthma, sensitised to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and /or Dermatophagoides farinae.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- CSMS: Combined Symptoms and Medication Score [12 months]
Evaluation of the number of symptoms and the consumption of medication necessary for the control of such symptoms in asthma and rhinitis / rhinoconjunctivitis of each subject during the trial, of the groups with each other and with respect to placebo.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Medication-free days [12 months]
Number of days that the subjects need no medication
- Symptom-free days [12 months]
Number of days that the subjects have no symptom
- Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by MM09-SIT-023 [12 months]
Comparison between the beginning and end of the trial and among active groups and placebo
- Quality of life associated with asthma [12 months]
The quality of life associated with asthma will be measured following the GINA questionnaire. The GINA questionnaire consists of 4 questions. In questions 1-4, patients recall their experience during the last 4 weeks and answer using YES or NO. The interpretation of the answers is as follows: Well-controlled: None of the answers are YES Partly controlled: 1 - 2 answers are YES Uncontrolled: 3-4 answers are YES
- Quality of life associated with rhinitis [12 months]
The quality of life associated with rhinitis will be measured following the test ESPRINT-15. The scoring of the questionnaire will be carried out as follows: The global sum of the scores (ranging from "0 = nothing has bothered me" to "6 = it has bothered me a lot") of the 14 items plus the score given in the general questionnaire (ranging from "0 = Excellent" to "4 = Bad"). This sum is divided by the total number of items (15 items). The interpretation of the scores is between 0 (low impact) and 6 (high impact).
- Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) [12 months]
Visual Analogue Scale in which the subject has to indicate how he/she feels regarding to his allergy symptoms at the moment from 1 to 10. Being 1 very bad and 10 very well.
- Immunological parameters [12 months]
Analyses of total Ig3 and specific IgA,IgG and IgG4

Exclusion Criteria:
