New allergy shot shows promise in early trial
NCT ID NCT07052097
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 2 trial tested an injection called TQC2938, a humanized monoclonal antibody, in 136 adults with seasonal allergic rhinitis. All participants also used a standard nasal spray. The study measured how well the injection reduced nasal symptoms like sneezing and congestion over 2 and 4 weeks compared to a placebo. The trial is now complete.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TQC2938 injection (a humanized monoclonal antibody)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a new add-on treatment option for people with seasonal allergies who still have symptoms despite using standard nasal sprays.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 136 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug is still experimental and may not prove more effective than placebo.
