Official title Oral Immunotherapy for Peanut Allergic Patients
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04163562
What this study is testing
What is INP20?
INP20 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for peanut allergy.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase I/II study to determine the safety, tolerability, potential efficacy and dose finding of INP20, an oral immunotherapy in peanut-allergic patients. The overall study design consists of two sequential periods of Part A and Part B.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
