About this trial
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an enhanced strategy of allergen-specific immunotherapy (ITIT) in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. By recording the changes in CSMS from baseline to post-treatment in the subjects and the incidence of adverse reactions after treatment, the differences in efficacy and safety between the patients who received the basic three doses and those who received booster injections were compared. Furthermore, the impact of different booster strategies on long-term efficacy was compared to optimize the injection strategy. At the same time, the influence of different administration procedures on the immune response was evaluated.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Voluntary signing of the informed consent form
Commitment to abide by the research procedures and cooperate throughout the implementation of the research
Diagnosis conforms to the ARIA guidelines. The basis for the diagnosis is as follows: a. Symptoms: Paroxysmal sneezing, clear nasal discharge, nasal itching, and nasal congestion occur for 2 or more times, with symptoms persisting or accumulating for more than 1 hour each day, accompanied by tearing, eye itching, and eye redness and other ocular symptoms; b. Signs: Commonly, the nasal mucosa is pale and edematous, and nasal watery secretions are present; c. Allergen testing: Positive results for dust mite allergens SPT and/or serum-specific IgE, or positive nasal challenge test, requiring Der p and Der f to be positive (SPT results of ++ or higher, serum sIgE ≥ 2 grades), and other allergens in the allergen test to be negative

Treatments tested in this trial
Basic Intratonsillar Immunotherapy (ITIT)
Procedure/SurgeryDuring injection, the operator needs to gently shake the injection bottle about 20 times, the drug must be mixed to ensure the consistency of allergen concentration, and carefully check the patient's name and concentration on the bottle. Allergy extracts should not be injected intravenously, so the syringe will be aspirated to avoid inadvertent intravascular injection. Before each injection, after inserting the needle into the selected tonsil, before injecting the dose, the investigator will slightly pull the plunger of the syringe. If blood returns from the syringe, the syringe, and its contents will be discarded. The other tonsil will be selected and a new syringe will be prepared. Inject the mite allergen solution into the tonsil at months 0, 1, 2, 12, and 24, and administer the placebo at months 6 and 18.
