NCT02949050 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2018-05-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients demonstrated allergic to corn pollen and timothy grass pollen (by allergy testing) who have undergone 1 to 2 years of subcutaneous allergen immunotherapy (SCIT) containing timothy grass extract with moderate symptomology (as documented via rhinitis symptom score surveys) will constitute the treatment group. Those who previously chose not to undergo SCIT who have documented symptomology and are skin test positive to corn pollen will constitute the control group. Prospective symptom score analyses and retrospective quality of life assessments (RQLQ) will be the primary and secondary efficacy outcome measures.
