ALK contributed with a total of 18 scientific abstracts within the EAACI 2024 scientific programme – this included groundbreaking findings from two pivotal paediatric phase 3 clinical trials: The paediatric phase 3 data were presented in four oral abstract presentations during the EAACI Annual Congress by key trial investigators unveiling promising results in treating children by confirming the efficacy and safety of SLIT-tablets in paediatric populations with respiratory allergy caused by HDM or tree pollen (birch homologous group). As part of the EAACI programme, the new phase 3 data were also presented at the ALK symposium which took place on Saturday 1 June, emphasising the clinical importance of these new data.
New clinical evidence for SLIT-tablets documenting positive impact on children's daily lives The scientific presentations of the new paediatric phase 3 data demonstrated new clinical evidence documenting the efficacy and safety of the HDM and tree SLIT-tablets in children, by showing reductions in clinical symptoms and medication use, and improved quality of life.
