Inflamax Research Inc. Announces the Successful Completion of Enrollment for the First Multi-center, Mobile Environmental Exposure Chamber (mEEC™) Study
Toronto, ON (PRWEB) March 04, 2016 -- This is a landmark clinical study and is the first allergy immunotherapy study to utilize the mEEC™ in the United States. Inflamax’s unique and world leading technology was used to recruit and study patients in two separate locations in Neptune, New Jersey and Cincinnati, Ohio. The unique challenge in enrolling before the start of the tree season in the Northeast US was met with the deployment of Inflamax’s unique Online Central Recruiting Update Platform (OCRUP™). The data from this study will be instrumental in the launch of the Phase III program prior to end of 2016 utilizing Inflamax’s mEEC™ system in several locations within the United States. We also wish to thank the 20 investigator sites in Ohio, Kentucky, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
“Allergy trials rely on mother nature to produce consistent pollen concentrations to elicit adequate levels of symptoms in order to prove dose-response or efficacy. Unfortunately, climate change and variability in patient exposure in their everyday lives can lead to large variabilities and recruitment delays should the environment, weather, and other factors, not produce consistently. The novel mEEC™ technology enables study designs and endpoints to be infinitely more robust and allows for studying allergen-specific therapies, such as immunotherapy. The mEEC™ model is designed to provide consistent allergen exposure, over time, significantly reducing data variability and compliance compared to traditional field studies”, commented Dr. Anne Marie Salapatek, Chief Scientific Officer at Inflamax Research Inc.
