Pollinex Quattro Ragweed Allergy Vaccine Enters Last Stages of Development
Filed in archive Allergy Medications , Allergy: Research and Development , Hay Fever on November 24, 2006
Allergy Therapeutics, the makers of ragweed allergy vaccine Pollinex-R, are making headway with a new version of ragweed allergy vaccine called Pollinex Quattro Ragweed. This new formulation is an ultra-short course vaccine requiring only four shots in three weeks. The trials are on its last stages, and might take just a couple more years.
With additional late stage studies also planned in the treatment of Tree allergies, Pollinex Quattro is entering the final stages of the largest ever allergy vaccine development programme and the first conducted on a global basis. The Company expects to launch the first ever approved allergy vaccine in the United States in 2009.
Let's cross our fingers that this develops into another treatment option for people with pollen allergies.

It would be very nice if they could come up with a vaccine for ragweed allergies. These allergies are very irritating and the lack of sleep is enough to kill you!

Please let me know if this vaccine is available in Rochester NY as fall allergies debilitate me for 4 months out of the year and the allergies turn into sinus infections for me which makes matters that much worse.
Thank you, Patti Brown
