About this trial

This research is being conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of increased dosing of Omalizumab for food allergies.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

A positive prick skin test (PST) with a wheal ≥ 6 mm to at least two of the relevant foods (peanut, cashew, walnut, egg, or milk)

Positive food specific IgE (≥2.0 kUA/L) to at least two of the relevant foods

A positive history of clinical reaction to at least one of the qualifying foods other than the challenge-qualifying food

Positive oral food challenge (OFC) to one of the potentially qualifying foods at a cumulative dose of ≤144 mg (maximum tolerated dose ≤30 mg)

Disqualifiers

Weight >80 kg at time of screening

Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at screening.

Sensitivity or suspected/known allergy to any ingredients (including excipients) of omalizumab.

Poorly controlled or severe asthma/wheezing at screening

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Proportion of participants that tolerate the 600 mg dose after treatment.

The primary analysis of outcome is on the proportion of subjects tolerating at least 600 mg at the post-treatment OFC in either group against the expected outcome without treatment based on OUTMATCH data.

Time frame
16 Weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Other measures of omalizumab treatment effect on food allergy

Secondary efficacy endpoint analysis will also be determined at OFC following 16-weeks of treatment: ● The proportion of participants that tolerate a single dose 1000 mg allergen

Time frame
16 Weeks
2

Other measures of omalizumab treatment effect on food allergy

Secondary efficacy endpoint analysis will also be determined at OFC following 16-weeks of treatment: ● The proportion of participants that tolerate a single dose 2000 mg allergen

Time frame
16 Weeks
3

Other measures of omalizumab treatment effect on food allergy

Secondary efficacy endpoint analysis will also be determined at OFC following 16-weeks of treatment: ● The proportion of participants that tolerate two doses of 2000 mg allergen

Time frame
16 Weeks
4

Other measures of omalizumab treatment effect on food allergy

Secondary efficacy endpoint analysis will also be determined at OFC following 16-weeks of treatment: ● Reaction severity of positive post treatment reactions using the CoFAR grading scale ranging from 1 (mild) to 5 (death)

Time frame
16 Weeks
