Study Summary

This trial is testing whether dupilumab can improve the safety of milk oral immunotherapy and rates of desensitization in people with cow's milk allergies.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 4 to 50 with a confirmed cow's milk allergy, demonstrated by specific tests. Participants must have reacted to a small amount of milk protein during screening and not be allergic to oats (used in placebo). They should not have cardiovascular disease, severe allergies or asthma, certain immune disorders, or be on conflicting medications. Women who can bear children must use birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if Dupilumab helps make Milk Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) safer and more effective compared to a placebo. It aims to see if more subjects can tolerate higher amounts of milk protein without allergic reactions after treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Dupilumab may cause injection site reactions, eye issues like redness or itching, cold sores in the mouth or throat area, and inflammation of blood vessels. Not everyone will experience these side effects.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Proportion of subjects treated with dupilumab plus milk protein OIT vs placebo plus milk protein OIT who tolerate at least 2040 mg (cumulative) cow's milk protein during DBPCFC to milk at week 18
Secondary outcome measures
Change in the cumulative tolerated dose (CTD) of milk protein during DBPCFC from baseline to week 18 across cohorts as pairwise comparisons of all treatment groups
Change in the cumulative tolerated dose (CTD) of milk protein during DBPCFC from baseline to week 24 across cohorts as pairwise comparisons of all treatment groups
Proportion of participants who tolerate 4040 mg cumulative milk protein at week 18 DBPCFC
