House dust mite SLIT-tablet for Chinese patients aged 12–65 with dust mite allergy
A Randomised Double-blind Placebo-controlled Phase III Field Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of the House Dust Mite (HDM) SLIT-tablet in Chinese Participants Aged 12-65 Years With HDM Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis With or Without Asthma
This trial will test whether a daily under‑the‑tongue (SLIT) tablet for house dust mite allergy helps Chinese people aged 12–65 who have allergic rhinitis or rhinoconjunctivitis, with or without asthma.

What this trial studies
This is a randomized, double‑blind, parallel‑group, placebo‑controlled Phase 3 trial run at multiple sites in China comparing a 12 SQ‑HDM SLIT‑tablet to placebo over a 24–28 week treatment period. Participants are Chinese males or females aged 12–65 with confirmed sensitization to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus or D. farinae, a history of HDM allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis, and recent symptoms despite using allergy medications. The primary efficacy measure is the total combined rhinitis score during the last four weeks of treatment, with safety and medication use also monitored. Study visits occur at participating hospitals in Beijing and Fuzhou.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are Chinese individuals aged 12–65 with confirmed HDM sensitization (positive skin prick test and specific IgE), persistent AR/C symptoms despite pharmacotherapy, and lung function ≥70% predicted.
Not a fit: Those unlikely to benefit include people regularly exposed to other perennial allergens to which they are sensitized, patients with nasal or pharyngeal conditions that interfere with evaluation, those with severe asthma needing high‑dose inhaled corticosteroids, or people with a history of systemic allergic reactions.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the tablet could reduce nasal and eye allergy symptoms and lower the need for daily symptomatic medications in people with dust mite allergy.
How similar studies have performed: Previous randomized trials of HDM sublingual immunotherapy, including phase 3 programs in other regions, have shown efficacy for reducing HDM‑driven allergic rhinitis symptoms, so this approach is supported by prior evidence.
