About this trial
The goal of this non-interventional study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of a new simplified up-dosing schedule for Novo-Helisen Depot.
Novo-Helisen Depot is an approved allergen immunotherapy used to treat allergies to house dust mites. For allergen immunotherapy, it is important that the allergen dose is gradually increased, a process known as up-dosing to induce immune tolerance to the allergen. The recently approved One Strength up-dosing scheme for Novo-Helisen Depot allows up-dosing with 6 injections instead of the previously required 14 injections.
The main questions the study aims to answer are:
How is the tolerability and the safety of One Strength up-dosing scheme in daily practice? This study includes approximately 105 patients (children (≥5 years), adolescents, and adults), receiving this treatment as part of their usual care.
Study data on safety and tolerability wil be collected for each patient during the first 8 injection visits.
The study will be conducted at 6-8 study sites in Poland.
