Study Summary

A substance called immunoglobulin E (IgE), which is naturally produced by our body, has a key role in generating asthma attacks. In patients with allergies, there is an exaggerated production of IgE in response to specific substances such as pollens. Omalizumab is a new drug that inactivates IgE. This study tested the safety and efficacy of omalizumab against asthma attacks in children with allergic asthma.
