A Safety and Efficacy Study of PVX108 in Children and Adolescents With Peanut Allergy

Study Purpose

The overall aims of this study are to demonstrate that treatment with PVX108 immunotherapy has an acceptable safety profile and is effective for reducing clinical reactivity to peanut protein in children and adolescents with peanut allergy.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Key

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Physician-diagnosed immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated peanut allergy; - Peanut specific serum IgE measured by ImmunoCAP® ≥ 0.7 kilounit allergy specific antibody per litre (kUA/L) at screening; - Positive skin prick test to peanut with mean wheal diameter ≥5 mm greater than negative control at screening; - Positive peanut double blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) with a reactive dose ≤300 mg peanut protein (≤443 mg cumulative reactive dose [CRD]); - Able to perform spirometry or peak expiratory flow.
Children who are 4 years of age at Screening Stage 1 visit and unable to perform peak expiratory may be enrolled providing they had no clinical features of moderate or severe persistent asthma within 1 year prior to the Screening visit;
  • - Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) ≥80% predicted in adolescents and children with asthma capable of performing spirometry, or peak expiratory flow ≥80% predicted in participants with asthma unable to perform spirometry (at investigator's discretion).
Key

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - History of or current clinically significant medical conditions or laboratory abnormalities which in the opinion of the investigator would jeopardise the safety of the participant or the validity of the study results; - Severe or unstable asthma as assessed by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) assessment of asthma control OR current treatment for asthma at GINA ≥Step 4 level; - Participants with skin disorders that would hinder skin prick testing and/or its interpretation or study drug administration (eg, severe generalised poorly controllable atopic dermatitis); - Any medical condition in which epinephrine (adrenaline) is contraindicated; - Prior therapy aimed at desensitising peanut allergy, either in a formal study or in clinical practice; - Severe or life-threatening reaction during the screening food challenge, at investigator discretion.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05621317
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Phase 2
Lead Sponsor

The sponsor is the organization or person who oversees the clinical study and is responsible for analyzing the study data.
