BACKGROUND: The only causal treatment for allergic rhinitis (AR) is allergen immunotherapy (AIT) including personalized liquid sublingual AIT (SLIT). We present the methodology for establishing the EfficAPSI cohort to further evaluate the real-life effectiveness and use of SLIT liquid. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The EfficAPSI cohort was constituted by deterministic linkage of Stallergenes Greer dispensing and nationwide French healthcare insurance system (SNDS) databases. Data from 2006 to 2018 were extracted. All patients who initiated Stallergenes Greer SLIT liquid between 2010 and 2013 were considered as exposed and those dispensed with AR symptomatic treatment only as control. To limit the impact of confounding, the models will be weighted using the inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). RESULTS: A total of 445,574 patients were included; median age was 38 years; 59.1% were female. Exposed patients (n = 112,492) were significantly younger, more frequently males, and less likely to have comorbidities than controls (n = 333,082). After IPTW, patients' characteristics from both groups were similar. CONCLUSIONS: To date, the EfficAPSI cohort has the largest number of person-years of follow-up in the field of AIT. The completeness of the data allows to evaluate SLIT liquid effectiveness with rigorous methodology, leading to important insights on personalized medicine in real-life.< Réduire
