About this study

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind placebo controlled study of efficacy and safety of characterized peanut OIT in peanut allergic individuals. All eligible subjects will receive an escalating dose of CPNA or placebo. Approximately 50 subjects will be randomized 1:1 to peanut OIT or placebo.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Ages 4 through 26 years, inclusive
  • Clinical history of allergy to peanuts or peanut-containing foods
  • Serum IgE to peanut >0.35 kU/L (determined by UniCAP within the past 12 months) and/or a SPT to peanut >3 mm compared to control
  • Experience dose-limiting symptoms at or before the 100mg dose of peanut protein (measured as 200 mg of peanut flour) on abbreviated screening OFC conducted via PRACTALL guidelines
  • Use of birth control by females of child-bearing potential

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of Cardiovascular disease
  • History of frequent or repeated, severe or life-threatening episodes of anaphylactic shock
  • History of other chronic disease
  • History of eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease
  • Severe asthma
  • Mild or moderate asthma if uncontrolled
  • Use of omalizumab within the past 6 months or current use of other non-traditional forms of allergen immunotherapy
  • Use of beta-blockers(oral), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)
  • Pregnancy, lactation
  • Having the same place of residence as another study subject
  • Participation in an interventional clinical trial 30 days prior to randomization

Treatment and study plan

AR101 powder provided in capsules

Biological

Study product formulated to contain peanut protein at different dosage strengths for use as defined in the protocol

Placebo powder provided in capsules

Biological

Study product formulated to contain only inactive ingredients for use as defined in the protocol

Primary outcomes

  1. The Percentage of Subjects Who Tolerate at Least 300 mg (443 mg Cumulative) of Peanut Protein With no More Than Mild Symptoms at the Exit DBPCFC

    Time frame: 6-9 Months

    The primary endpoint was the percentage of subjects who achieved desensitization, as determined by tolerating at least 300 mg (443 mg cumulative) of peanut protein at the Exit Double Blind Placebo Controlled Food Challenge (DBPCFC) with no more than mild symptoms (i.e., desensitization responders)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Maximum Tolerated Dose of Peanut Protein at the Exit DBPCFC

    Time frame: 6-9 months

    The change in maximum tolerated dose of peanut protein from baseline (screening) to the Exit Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Food Challenge

  2. Number of Participants by Maximum Dose Achieved With no or Mild Symptoms at Exit DBPCFC

    Time frame: 6-9 months

  3. Changes in Peanut-Specific IgE From Baseline to Exit DBPCFC

    Time frame: 6-9 months

  4. Changes in Peanut-Specific IgG4 From Baseline to Exit DBPCFC

    Time frame: 6-9 months

  5. Change in Skin Prick Test (SPT) Mean Peanut Wheal Diameter Results From Baseline

    Time frame: Baseline, 6-9 months
