摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions which can be used in immunotherapy and especially to compositions which can be used in immunotherapy for mammals, such as human mammals, suffering from peanut allergy. The present invention further relates to the use of the present compositions for the therapeutic treatment for desentizing the immune system of a mammal suffering from an allergy by immunotherapy and the use of the present compositions in a prophylactic treatment of a mammal with high predisposition to develop a certain allergy. Specifically, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a modified whole peanut extract and pharmaceutically acceptable diluents and/or excipients, wherein said modified whole peanut extract is a reduced and subsequently alkylated whole peanut extract, preferably a whole defatted peanut extract comprising soluble peanut kernel proteins such as Ara h1, Ara h2 and Ara h6.
