Title / Titel	Establishing a skin test to evaluate the clinical efficacy of allergen specific immunotherapy
PDF	Abstract (PDF, 14 KB)
Summary / Zusammenfassung	Today allergen specific immunotherapy for patients with allergies to the venom of stinging insects is performed for 5 years in every patient, because no test is able to monitor clinical efficacy. We are establishing a skin test able to monitor the efficacy of immunotherapy. We predict that the treatment in many patients can be terminated much earlier.
