Trial Outcomes & Findings for Peanut Oral Immunotherapy and Anti-Immunoglobulin E (IgE) for Peanut Allergy (NCT NCT00932282)

NCT ID: NCT00932282

Last Updated: 2018-03-01

Results Overview

The primary efficacy outcome of the study is to evaluate whether the addition of anti-IgE therapy using Xolair to peanut oral immunotherapy is able to induce clinical tolerance as measured by passing an oral food challenge to 20 grams of peanut flour, 2-4 weeks after discontinuing peanut OIT therapy

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 months

A secondary efficacy outcome of the study is to evaluate whether the addition of anti-IgE therapy using Xolair to a peanut oral immunotherapy protocol allows for a higher amount of peanut tolerated after the rush desensitization phase, thereby reducing the duration of buildup phase and achieving maintenance dosing more rapidly

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: approximately 24 or 36 months

A secondary efficacy outcome of the study is to evaluate whether the addition of anti-IgE therapy using Xolair to peanut oral immunotherapy is able to induce clinical desensitization as measured by passing an oral food challenge to 20 grams of peanut flour on the final day of peanut OIT dosing.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: approximately 24 or 36 months

A secondary safety outcome of the study is to determine the frequency of SAEs during oral immunotherapy in order to assess whether the addition of anti-IgE therapy using Xolair to peanut oral immunotherapy can reduce the number of SAEs that occur during oral immunotherapy when compared to previously published results
