ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Tolerated a Single Dose of >= 600 mg (1044 mg Cumulative Tolerated Dose) of Peanut Protein Without Dose-limiting Symptoms at Week 12Week 12
Responder rate was defined as the percentage of participants tolerating a single dose of \>= 600 mg (1044 mg cumulative tolerated dose) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) conducted at Week 12. The cumulative tolerated dose is the sum of the tolerated doses, not including the reactive dose. Dose-limiting symptoms indicate a true allergic reaction occurring during administration of a single dose of peanut protein at the DBPCFC that should preclude the administration of any further doses in the view of the investigator. Symptoms that require administration of any rescue medication were considered dose-limiting symptoms. Participants with treatment discontinuation or missing more than 1 doses of study drug prior to Week 12 due to reasons other than operational complications caused by public health emergency were considered non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Tolerated a Single Dose of >= 1000 mg (2044 mg Cumulative Tolerated Dose) of Peanut Protein Without Dose-limiting Symptoms at Week 12Week 12
Responder rate was defined as the percentage of participants tolerating a single dose of \>= 1000 mg (2044 mg cumulative tolerated dose) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) conducted at Week 12. The cumulative tolerated dose is the sum of the tolerated doses, not including the reactive dose. Dose-limiting symptoms indicate a true allergic reaction occurring during administration of a single dose of peanut protein at the DBPCFC that should preclude the administration of any further doses in the view of the investigator. Symptoms that require administration of any rescue medication were considered dose-limiting symptoms. Participants with treatment discontinuation or missing more than 1 doses of study drug prior to Week 12 due to reasons other than operational complications caused by public health emergency were considered non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Tolerated a Single Dose of 3000 mg (5044 mg Cumulative Tolerated Dose) of Peanut Protein Without Dose-limiting Symptoms at Week 12Week 12
Responder rate was defined as the percentage of participants tolerating a single dose of 3000 mg (5044 mg cumulative tolerated dose) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) conducted at Week 12. The cumulative tolerated dose is the sum of the tolerated doses, not including the reactive dose. Dose-limiting symptoms indicate a true allergic reaction occurring during administration of a single dose of peanut protein at the DBPCFC that should preclude the administration of any further doses in the view of the investigator. Symptoms that require administration of any rescue medication were considered dose-limiting symptoms. Participants with treatment discontinuation or missing more than 1 doses of study drug prior to Week 12 due to reasons other than operational complications caused by public health emergency were considered non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Maximum Severity of Symptoms Occurring at Any Challenge Dose of Peanut Protein up to and Including 1000 mg at Week 12Week 12
Symptom severity occurring at any challenge dose of peanut protein up to and including 1000 mg during the DBPCFC conducted at Week 12 was categorized as 4 levels: None, Mild, Moderate, Severe. The CoFAR grading system was used to categorize the symptom severity as mild, moderate and severe. Symptom severity for participants who completed DBPCFC without any symptom were categorized as none.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Tolerated a Single Dose of >= 1000 mg (2044 mg Cumulative Tolerated Dose) of Peanut Protein Without Dose-limiting Symptoms at Week 12 After 4 Weeks of TreatmentWeek 12
Responder rate was defined as the percentage of participants tolerating a single dose of \>= 1000 mg (2044 mg cumulative tolerated dose) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) conducted at Week 12 after 4 weeks of treatment (8 weeks of placebo + 4 weeks of ligelizumab treatment versus 12 weeks of placebo). The cumulative tolerated dose is the sum of the tolerated doses, not including the reactive dose. Participants with treatment discontinuation or missing more than 1 doses of study drug prior to Week 12 due to reasons other than operational complications caused by public health emergency were considered non-responders.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Tolerated the Specified Peanut Protein Dose Without Dose-limiting Symptoms at Week 52Week 52
Responder rate was defined as the percentage of participants tolerating the specified peanut protein doses (\>= 600 mg (1044 mg cumulative tolerated dose), \>= 1000 mg (2044 mg cumulative tolerated dose) or 3000 mg (5044 mg cumulative tolerated dose)) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) conducted at Week 52. The cumulative tolerated dose is the sum of the tolerated doses, not including the reactive dose. Dose-limiting symptoms indicate a true allergic reaction occurring during administration of a single dose of peanut protein at the DBPCFC that should preclude the administration of any further doses in the view of the investigator. Symptoms that require administration of any rescue medication were considered dose-limiting symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Peanut Protein Without Dose-limiting Symptoms During the DBPCFC at Week 12 and Week 52Baseline, Week 12, Week 52
Change from baseline in maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of peanut protein without dose-limiting symptoms during the DBPCFC at Week 12 and Week 52. Dose-limiting symptoms indicate a true allergic reaction occurring during administration of a single dose of peanut protein at the DBPCFC that should preclude the administration of any further doses in the view of the investigator.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Peanut-specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) at Week 12 and Week 52Baseline, Week 12, Week 52Change from baseline of serum levels of peanut-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE)
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Peanut-specific Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) at Week 12 and Week 52Baseline, Week 12, Week 52Change from baseline of serum levels of peanut-specific immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Skin Prick Test (SPT) Mean Wheal Diameters at Week 16/Week 56Baseline, Week 16/Week 56
The Skin Prick Test (SPT) is a widely used diagnostic tool for identifying allergen-specific IgE-mediated allergies. During the test, a small amount of allergen, in this case, peanut allergen, is introduced into the skin. The allergen interacts with specific IgE antibodies bound to cutaneous mast cells. This interaction can cause a reaction, resulting in a wheal and flare on the skin. The size of the wheal and flare, specifically the longest diameter and the midpoint orthogonal diameter, were evaluated at each site and the average size of the wheal and flare across all sites was summarized and reported. Considering the study termination, SPT originally scheduled at Week 56 was performed 4 weeks after Week 12 assessment in some patients.
