简要总结
Open label study with peanut oral immunotherapy (OIT). Peanut allergic children aged 1-3 years of age will be randomized 2:1 to:
- Peanut OIT with slow up-dosing (40-60 weeks) up to a maintenance dose of 285 mg daily oral peanut protein or
- Control group with peanut allergic children who do not undergo OIT.
- In addition, a group of healthy children without allergic diseases will be included in the study.
The primary outcome is tolerance to at least 750 mg peanut protein at a challenge after 3 years and sustained unresponsiveness (i.e. tolerance) to 750 mg peanut protein after 3 years of OIT followed by 4-6 weeks of avoidance.
Efficacy and safety will be compared between group 1 and 2. Group 3 is a control group for analyses of immunological markers.
详细描述
Problem: Today there is no clinically available treatment for peanut allergy. Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) studies have shown promising results, particularly in younger children (<4 years).
Intervention: Peanut OIT in children aged 1-3 years with peanut allergy (clinical symptoms at peanut challenge and IgE >0.1 kU /l to peanut and/or Ara h 2).
Comparison: Three groups are compared. Peanut allergic children are randomized 2:1 to group 1 (active OIT) or group 2 (control). Group 3 consists of age-matched non-allergic children:
Group 1; Children with peanut allergy receiving peanut OIT, slow up-dosing, 40-60 weeks, until the maintenance dose 285 mg peanut protein. Three years' treatment. (n=50 patients)
Group 2; Age-matched children with peanut allergy who do not undergo OIT peanut (peanut avoidance group). Peanut challenges are performed one and three years after inclusion. (n=25 patients)

盲法说明
Blinded randomisation process after a positive baseline peanut challenge (for both participants, care provider and investigator) by opaque envelops.
After the child is randomised to treatment or avoidance, everyone (particpant, care provider and investigator) know if the child is in the treatment or avoidance group.
