Efficacy and Safety Trial of Pangramin SLIT HDM-mix in Subjects With House Dust Mite Induced Rhinitis

Subjects completed symptom assessments and recorded the results in the patient diary cards on a daily basis. A total of six rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms were measured on a scale from 0-3 as follows: 0 = No symptoms. = Mild symptoms. = Moderate symptoms. 3= Severe symptoms. The six symptoms are classified in 2 groups as follows: Nose symptoms: Runny nose, Blocked nose, Sneezing, Itchy nose; Eye symptoms: Gritty feeling/red/itchy eyes, Watery eyes. The six symptom scores were summed to obtain the rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms score with range 0(best) to 18(worst). Baseline was set as 8 weeks before randomization as from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). 11-12months' end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms scores (Baseline and 11-12months) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days with diary.

Subjects were provided with open-labelled rescue medication to be used as needed for treatment of their rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms. Subjects reported their use of specific rescue medication via the patient diary cards. Scoring principles were applied to transform the number of rescue medication doses used into medication scores.The scores of all the medication used were summed to produce the daily rhinoconjunctivitis medication score range from 0 to 32. A lower medication score means the patient use less medication, and represent a better outcome; on the contrary, a higher medication score means the patient use more medication, and represent a worse outcome. Baseline was from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). The end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average scores (Baseline and End) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days in diary.

Subjects were instructed by the investigator on how to complete symptom assessments and recorded the results in the patient diary cards on a daily basis. A total of 4 rhinitis symptoms were measured on a scale from 0-3 as follows: 0 = No symptoms. = Mild symptoms. = Moderate symptoms. 3= Severe symptoms. The 4 symptoms are as follows: Runny nose, Blocked nose, Sneezing, Itchy nose. The 4 symptom scores were summed to obtain the rhinitis symptoms score with range 0(best) to 12(worst). Baseline was set as 8 weeks before randomization as from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). 11-12months' end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average scores (Baseline and 11-12months) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days with diary.

Subjects were instructed by the investigator on how to complete symptom assessments and recorded the results in the patient diary cards on a daily basis. A total of 2 conjunctivitis symptoms were measured on a scale from 0-3 as follows: 0 = No symptoms. = Mild symptoms. = Moderate symptoms. 3= Severe symptoms. The 2 symptoms as follows: Gritty feeling/red/itchy eyes, Watery eyes. The 2 symptom scores were summed to obtain the conjunctivitis symptoms score with range 0(best) to 6(worst). Baseline was set as 8 weeks before randomization as from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). 11-12months' end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average scores (Baseline and 11-12months) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days with diary.

Subjects were instructed by the investigator on how to complete symptom assessments and recorded the results in the patient diary cards on a daily basis. A total of 4 Asthma symptoms were measured on a scale from 0-3 as follows: 0 = No symptoms. = Mild symptoms. = Moderate symptoms. 3= Severe symptoms. The 4 symptoms as follows: Cough, Wheeze, Chest tightness/shortness of breath (dyspnoea), Exercise induced symptoms. The 4 symptom scores were summed to obtain the asthma symptoms score with range 0(best) to 12(worst). Baseline was set as 8 weeks before randomization as from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). 11-12months' end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average scores (Baseline and 11-12months) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days with diary.

A healthy day is a day without rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms and without any intake of rescue medication. Percentage of healthy days is the healthy days of subject in this study divided by the total study days.

The average rhinoconjunctivitis VAS score (baseline to first year). The scale answers the question 'How have your nasal complaints been today?' from 0 = no symptoms to 10 = severe symptoms. The baseline VAS rhinoconjunctivitis score is the average value of VAS scores in V1 (Screen Visit, Week -8) and V2 (Randomization visit, Week 0), and Evaluation period (Months 11-12) VAS rhinoconjunctivitis score is the average value of VAS scores in V8 (Week 44) and V9 (Week 52).

The baseline RQLQ value was collected in Visit 1 (Week -8) and the 12 months' RQLQ value was collected in Visit 9 (Week 52). The maximum value of RQLQ score is 168 and the minimum one is 0. The score is decreased as the life quality is better.

Comparing overall rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms at the end of study year Between the Actively Treated Patients and the Placebo Treated.

Subjects were provided with open-labelled rescue medication to be used as needed for treatment of their Rhinitis symptoms. Subjects reported their use of specific rescue medication via the patient diary cards. Scoring principles were applied to transform the number of rescue medication doses used into medication scores. The scores of all the medication used were summed to produce the daily Rhinitis medication score range from 0 to 30. A lower medication score means the patient use less medication, and represent a better outcome; on the contrary, a higher medication score means the patient use more medication, and represent a worse outcome. Baseline was set as from V1 (Week -8) to V2 (Week 0). 11-12months' end evaluation period was set from V8(Week 44) to V9(Week 52). These two average scores (Baseline and 11-12months) were calculated for each patient as the sum of the daily score throughout the 2 months(8 weeks in count) in evaluation period and divided with the days with diary.

The baseline AQLQ value was collected in Visit 1 (Week -8) and the 12 months' RQLQ value was collected in Visit 9 (Week 52). The maximum value of RQLQ score is 217 and the minimum one is 0. The score is elevated as the life quality is better.
