The efficacy of subcutaneous SIT has been clearly shown in a metaanalysis of 43 double-blind placebo-controlled trials in allergic rhinitis as well as another meta-analysis of 16 double-blind placebo-controlled studies in asthma patients [13]. The mean clinical improvement was 45% reduction in symptoms and medication compared with placebo in rhinitis and 40% in asthma patients, which exceeds the effects of drug therapy. A recent meta-analysis also confirmed that asthma responds favorably to SIT [14], However, recently it could also be demonstrated that SIT is effective in patients with house dust mite allergy, allergic rhinitis and asthma [15]. Immunotherapy in these patients not only reduced rhinitis and asthma symptoms as well as rescue medication, but also had an impact on bronchial hyperreactivity over the 3-year follow-up period. [Pg.124]

In allergen immunotherapy, specific allergen extracts (also called allergen vaccines) are administered in order to modify or eliminate allergic rhinitis symptoms. [Pg.925]

The World Health Organization position paper [31] published in 1998 found that properly conducted double-blind, placebo-controlled trials have shown the effectiveness of sublingual-swallow immunotherapy with grass, Parietaria and mite vaccines. The ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and Impact on Asthma) [32] guidelines published in 2001 gave specific indications for usage. [Pg.8]

The first report of the successful use of grass pollen extract injections to treat allergic rhinitis was published in 1911 by Noon." The therapy was first called desensitization however, this did not seem appropriate because skin reactivity sometimes remained. The name was later changed to hyposensitization. While this term is still used today, immunotherapy is used more commonly and is less confusing. [Pg.1737]

The effectiveness of immunotherapy for seasonal allergic rhinitis appears to be better than that seen with perennial rhinitis, in part because it is more difficult to determine which allergen is responsible for perennial symptoms, and it is more due to multiple sensitizations. Effectiveness has been shown in a number of clinical studies using a variety of pollen extracts, even in patients with severe disease resistant to pharmacotherapy." " Specific immunotherapy for house dust mites has had good results in appropriately selected patients, while several studies have described marked improvement in patients with allergy to cats. Data indicate that in some patients 3 years of immunotherapy may be sufficient to give lasting benefit." ... [Pg.1738]
