Arm/Group Title Peanut Oral Immune Therapy (OIT) Peanut Placebo
Hide Arm/Group Description

Peanut Oral Immune Therapy (OIT) for 134 weeks followed by peanut avoidance for 26 weeks.

Two forms of peanut oral immunotherapy were used. One form was a liquid extract derived from the peanut flour source material. This was used during initial dose escalation for doses 0.1 to 0.8 mg of peanut protein. The second form was peanut flour, which was used for the remainder of dose escalation, build-up, and maintenance.

Peanut placebo for 134 weeks followed by peanut avoidance for 26 weeks.

Two forms of placebo were used. One form was a liquid extract derived from oat flour source material. This was used during initial dose escalation for doses 0.1 to 0.8 mg. The second form was peanut flour, which was used for the remainder of dose escalation, build-up, and maintenance.

Title Highest Tolerated Cumulative Dose
Hide Description

The highest tolerated cumulative dose of peanut protein during the blinded (masked) oral food challenge (OFC) at Week 160, analyzed within and between both placebo and peanut OIT groups. The highest cumulative dose of peanut protein tolerated for each participant was analyzed as a continuous outcome.

Any randomized participant without an evaluable blinded (masked) OFC was imputed as not tolerant. For the continuous highest cumulative dose endpoint, this is defined as having a highest cumulative dose imputed as zero.
