Zusammenfassung:Compositions for the treatment and/or prevention of IgE-mediated disorders in a mammal by means of RNA interference are provided, together with methods for the use of such compounds. The inventive compositions comprise a binding agent that specifically binds to a target internalizable antigen that is expressed on the surface of a target cell of interest and a genetic construct that is capable of expressing a small interfering nucleic acid molecule (siNA) that suppresses expression of a target gene within the target cell, whereby, after binding to the target antigen, the binding agent and genetic construct are internalized into the cell, and the genetic construct released.
