Abstract
The invention relates to combinations of peptides derived from a portion of an amino sequence of a grass pollen allergen, e.g. the allergens Phl p 1, Phl p 2, Phl p 3, Phl p 4 and/or Phl p 5, or a peptide variant thereof. Such peptides comprise at least one T cell epitope mid a high number of patients in a worldwide population will have HLA Class II alleles with the potential to bind the peptides of the peptide combinations. The invention also relates to the use of such peptide combinations in relieving an immune response caused by grass pollen species.
