Study Summary

This trial is for a new treatment of food allergies. The study will test if the treatment is safe and works for people with allergies to multiple foods, including peanuts. A total of 110 people will be in the study, and they will be given different doses of the treatment to see if it works.

Who is the study for?
The COMBINE study is for people aged 4-55 with multiple food allergies, including peanut. Participants must have a confirmed allergy through specific tests and react to small amounts of allergens in a controlled challenge. They should not be severely asthmatic, pregnant, or on certain heart or immune-modifying medications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This trial is testing the effectiveness of Omalizumab and Dupilumab—two biologic drugs—in improving outcomes for patients undergoing oral immunotherapy (OIT) for multiple food allergies compared to a placebo group.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects from Omalizumab and Dupilumab may include irritation at the injection site, headaches, fatigue, joint pain, and potential allergic reactions. The severity can vary among individuals.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
The success rates of passing a DBPCFC to peanut and at least one other FA
The success rates of passing a DBPCFC to peanut and two other FAs
The success rates of passing a peanut Double-Blind Placebo Controlled Food Challenge (DBPCFC)
Secondary outcome measures
Proportion of participants who have a 10-fold change in the cumulative tolerance dose for each FA at weeks 32 and/or week 44, compared to baseline
Proportion of participants who pass DBPCFCs for each FA at a cumulative dose of ≥1,043 mg, ≥2,043 mg, or ≥4,043 mg at week 32 and/or week 44.
Proportion of participants who successfully pass DBPCFCs to a cumulative dose of >=1,043 mg protein to 1, 2, or 3 FAs when applicable at week 44
