A pharmaceutical and clinical development programme[edit]

Since 2003, Stallergenes has been involved in a clinical development programme whose objective is to develop proprietary medicines intended to cover the main allergens responsible for more than 80% of respiratory allergies. [citation needed][19]

Oralair is the first sublingual immunotherapy tablet resulting from this programme. Oralair is marketed in 22 countries and has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States.[citation needed][20][21]

The second project in this programme is the house dust mite immunotherapy tablet Actair which is marketed in Japan, Australia, and New Zealand,[22][23] and South Korea under the brand name Actair and in Germany under the brand name Orylmyte.[24]

In 2021, Stallergenes Greer is partnering with Aptar Pharma to develop a novel connected device for allergen immunotherapy treatment delivery. It will contribute to improving adherence, thus optimising treatment outcomes.[25]
