Methods for desensitising an individual to a selected polypeptide antigen are provided. The methods entail administration of T cell epitope containing peptides from a polypeptide antigen in such a way as to establish a tolergeneic environment, that is, a state of hyporesponsiveness to the peptides. The selected polypeptide antigen is then administered such that the state of hyporesponsiveness and co-administration of the selected antigen are sufficient to desensitise the individual to the polypeptide antigen. Also provided are therapeutic systems useful in the methods of the invention, and the use of polypeptide antigens and peptides in the manufacture of medicaments in the methods of the invention.

L'invention concerne des procédés servant à désensibiliser un individu à un antigène polypeptidique sélectionné. Les procédés selon l'invention comprennent l'administration de peptides provenant d'un antigène polypeptidique contenant un épitope des cellules T de façon à établir un environnement tolérogénique, c'est-à-dire un état d'hyporéactivité à ces peptides. L'antigène polypeptidique sélectionné est alors administré de sorte que l'état d'hyporéactivité et la co-administration de l'antigène sélectionné suffisent à désensibiliser l'individu à l'antigène polypeptidique. L'invention concerne également des systèmes thérapeutiques utilisés dans les procédés selon l'invention, ainsi que l'utilisation d'antigènes polypeptidiques et de peptides dans la fabrication de médicaments utilisés dans les procédés selon l'invention.
