All Individual Drugs Already Approved
Therapies where all constituent drugs have already been approved are likely to have better-understood side effect profiles.
Pivotal Trial
The final step before approval, pivotal trials feature drugs that have already shown basic safety & efficacy.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: OmalizumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants received omalizumab as a subcutaneous injection once every 2 weeks (q2w) or once every 4 weeks (q4w). The dose (from 75 mg up to 600 mg) and dosing frequency (q2w or q4w) was determined by serum total IgE level and body weight using the study-drug dosing table. All participants were also treated during the entire study with intranasal corticosteroids (mometasone nasal spray) as background therapy.
Group II: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants received matching placebo as a subcutaneous injection once every 2 weeks or once every 4 weeks. The dose and dosing frequency was determined by serum total IgE level and body weight using the study-drug dosing table. All participants were also treated during the entire study with intranasal corticosteroids (mometasone nasal spray) as background therapy.
