PulmonarOM (Bacterial Lysates) in Respiratory Tract Infections

September 18, 2009 updated by: Sanofi

Prospective, Pivotal Unicentre, Randomized Double-bind, Placebo-controlled Study, to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Bacterial Lysates (Pulmonarom) in the Prevention of Respiratory Tract Infections

Primary

- To evaluate the efficacy of Pulmonaron in the decrease of interleukin-4/interferon gamma after second period of treatment

Secondary

  • To evaluate the efficacy of Pulmonarom in the prevention of upper respiratory tract infections symptoms through patient evaluation of fever or respiratory presence after second period of treatment
  • To evaluate loss of working or study days after second period of treatment
  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Pulmonarom in the population under study
