- Results from ALK-sponsored REACT (REAl-world effeCTtiveness of allergy immunotherapy) study have been published in The Lancet Regional Health - Europe

- REACT demonstrated the real-world effectiveness of allergy immunotherapy (AIT) - including ALK products - in allergic rhinitis and asthma, including reduced medication use, fewer asthma exacerbations, and improved asthma control

- The study included patients treated with AIT for the three major allergens: house dust mites, grass pollen and tree pollen

- The benefits were sustained for up to nine years and further substantiate existing evidence from randomised, controlled trials (RCTs), while offering new information about the effects of AIT beyond the usual RCT follow-up period
