Abstract

Background Allergic rhinoconjunctivitis is an increasing problem worldwide with significant impact on quality of life and productivity. Sensitivity to cats accounts for 10-15% of the disease burden. Previous immunotherapy studies with two 27aa peptides were unsuccessful as a result of early and late phase responses. Cat Peptide Antigen Desensitisation (Cat-PAD) is a mixture of seven T-cell epitopes (13-17aa) derived from Fel d1. This study evaluated safety and relationship between dose, dosing regimen and symptom scores in cat allergic subjects with rhinoconjunctivitis 1721weeks(wk) after starting treatment using a standardized allergen challenge in an Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC).
