A Biomarker-Based Pilot Study of Cockroach Subcutaneous Immunotherapy in Cockroach Sensitive Adults With Asthma and/or Perennial Allergic Rhinitis


Scientific evidence has shown that, over the past two decades, the combination of cockroach
allergy and cockroach exposure is one of the most important factors contributing to the
dramatic increase in asthma morbidity seen in inner city children with asthma. Therefore, a
major goal of the Inner City Asthma Consortium is to evaluate the efficacy of cockroach
immunotherapy in inner city asthma. This trial is a pilot study of the safety of cockroach
subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) in adults who have a history of perennial allergic
rhinitis, asthma, or both, and are cockroach sensitive.
