Prevention With Ismigen of RTIs in Kids

Plain-language summary
Although the efficacy of PMBL® sublingual tablets is evident to most prescribers, the clinical studies available to demonstrate the efficacy of this bacterial lysate in preventing recurrent respiratory tract infections have undeniable methodological biases. To demonstrate the efficacy of PMBL® in the pediatric population without questionable bias, a randomized double-blind Placebo-controlled study will be conducted: one arm of children presenting with a risk of recurrent respiratory tract infections will be treated with PMBL® for a 3-month period, 10 days per months during the fall-winter whereas subjects of the Placebo arm will receive sublingual tablet indistinguishable from PMBL® but without active ingredients. Both groups of subjects will be followed for four additional months. To improve the accuracy of data and the tracking of respiratory tract infections (RTI), a diary will be provided to each subject, allowing them to report the event as soon as it occurs. If necessary, a visit may be planned to enable the investigator to assess the event accurately.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
