Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with omalizumab (Xolair, anti-IgE) can eliminate or reduce symptoms of peanut allergy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of anti-IgE treatment will make peanut oral immunotherapy safer, more tolerable, and more effective in treating peanut allergy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and side effects of a study product that contains recombinant modified peanut proteins (EMP-123) in healthy and peanut-allergic participants. This is a first in human study. As of November 2009, this study is no longer recruiting healthy volunteers and will only be recruiting individuals with peanut allergies.
Peanut allergy is known to cause severe anaphylactic reactions.The goal of this proposal is to produce a new treatment that would benefit subjects who have peanut allergy by lowering the risk of anaphylactic reactions (desensitization), and changing the peanut-specific immune response in subjects who have peanut allergy (tolerance).
The purpose of this study is to determine if mucosal peanut immunotherapy will make subjects who have peanut allergy less allergic and induce changes in their immune system.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response to daily sublingual (under the tongue) immunotherapy (SLIT) with peanut extract in adults and children with peanut allergies.
Currently, when a food allergy is diagnosed, the "standard of care" is strict avoidance of the allergic food and ready access to self-injectable epinephrine. Yet, accidental ingestions do occur. Unfortunately, for a ubiquitous food such as peanut, the possibility of an inadvertent ingestion is great. It is estimated that over 50% of individuals who are allergic to peanuts will have an accidental reaction to peanuts over a 2-year period. The purpose of this study is to determine if peanut sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) reduces the number and/or symptoms of accidental peanut ingestion in peanut allergic subjects. We would anticipate that the subjects on the peanut SLIT protocol would experience few adverse effects with accidental peanut ingestion over the course of the two years of SLIT. The primary endpoint to evaluate the effectiveness of SLIT will be a negative DBPCFC to peanuts (8 grams) at the completion of the two years of the study.
This is a Phase IIb, multicenter, open-label study available to active (Xolair) and control (placebo) subjects who have completed their final visit (or early termination visit, if applicable) for Study Q2788g, who meet the eligibility criteria of this study, and who provide consent to participate in this study.
The purpose of this study is to observe the natural course of food allergy, including both the development of peanut allergy in infants at high risk for developing this allergy, and the resolution of both egg and cow's milk allergy.
The purpose of this study is to develop a tool to better predict clinical allergy to peanut, so that those who are skin test positive but non allergic will not have to unnecessarily avoid peanut, and those with true allergy can be diagnosed, possibly without oral ingestion challenge, and treated appropriately
