Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome will be the change in fraction (fraction expressed as percentage) of proliferating Th2-cells, defined by IL-4 expression and low expression of CFSE, within the allergen-specific CD4+ T-cell population within both patient groups, ISM and non-ISM after thirteen weeks and seven months of VIT.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in the profiles of gene expression and proteome of T- and B-cells are secondary outcomes for ISM+ and ISM- patients.
