Measure
Control - Crossover
The subjects enrolled in the observational control group will have follow-up visits every 6 months. Each visit will involve a medical history and physical examination. After year 1, they will be offered to cross-over to active therapy.
Peanut OIT
Peanut flour OIT: Patients will receive daily escalating dosages as determined in the modified rush phase as stated in the protocol. The dosage will be escalated until a daily dose of 4000 mg is reached. A Double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge will then consist of two challenges performed on the same day. One challenge will consist of 7 doses of peanut given every 10-20 minutes in increasing amounts up to a total of 10 grams of whole peanut (5 grams of peanut protein) masked by inclusion in vehicle food. The other challenge will consist of placebo material given similarly.
