Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this trial is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the administration of a depigmented and polymerized allergen extract of Phleum pratense in the rhinoconjunctivitis and/or asthma of slight or moderate intensity, due to allergy to grass pollen.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Immunotherapy is a specific treatment for allergic diseases. Unlike conventional pharmacological treatment, immunotherapy is the only treatment that could modify the natural course of allergic disease. This is a prospective double-blind placebo controlled study with three arms of treatment: placebo and two active (one of the active arms will receive a dose that is 10x the dose of the other arm).
