About this trial

This study will test a new investigational treatment called UKK-0018. UKK-0018 as an immunotherapeutic for the treatment of peanut allergies. The treatment is given by injection and is designed to train the immune system to tolerate peanut exposure over time.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To assess the safety and tolerability of repeated dosing of UKK-0018 administered IM of solicited local and systemic adverse reactions

Numbers and percentages of participants with solicited local and systemic adverse reactions

Time frame
7 days after each injection
2

To assess the safety and tolerability of repeated dosing of UKK-0018 administered IM of unsolicited adverse events

Numbers and percentages of participants with unsolicited adverse events (AEs)

Time frame
28 days after each injection
3

To assess the safety and tolerability of repeated dosing of UKK-0018 administered IM of medically-attended adverse events (MAAEs

Numbers and percentages of participants with medically-attended adverse events (MAAEs)

Time frame
30 weeks after first injection
4

To assess the safety and tolerability of repeated dosing of UKK-0018 administered IM of adverse events of special interest (AESI)

Numbers and percentages of participants with adverse events of special interest (AESI)

Time frame
30 weeks after first injection

Secondary outcomes

1

To assess the preliminary efficacy of repeated dosing of UKK-0018 administered IM in participants with peanut allergy

The number of participants able to increase their tolerated dose (eg, no more than mild dose-limiting symptoms) of peanut protein at least 10-fold in the exit double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) compared to the screening DBPCFC.

Time frame
at 28 days post last treatment
2

To assess the preliminary efficacy of repeated IM dosing of UKK-0018 in participants with peanut allergy

The number of participants able to ingest ≥ 600 mg of peanut protein in a DBPCFC

Time frame
at 28 days post treatment
3

To assess the effect of dose regimen on immunogenicity and biomarkers following repeated IM dosing of UKK-0018

Change from baseline in immunogenicity markers measured by geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) at prespecified time points up to study completion

Time frame
up to 30 weeks
