Tolerance Following Peanut Oral Immunotherapy (PNOIT2)
Clinical Desensitization and Tolerance Following Peanut Oral Immunotherapy and Subsequent Allergen Avoidance
The unifying objective of this project is to determine whether peanut oral immunotherapy (PN OIT) induced clinical tolerance in the context of food allergy is significantly associated with the expansion of a specific regulatory T cell subset (CD45RA- CD25++ FoxP3++) that is thought to be inducible in the gut-associated lymphoid compartment and associated with immunological tolerance.
The hypothesis of the study is that the induction of Treg cells will be associated with clinical tolerance.
The investigators will measure the change from baseline of induced Treg cells as a frequency of total CD4 T cells during active treatment and compare that between participants who achieve significant clinical tolerance (Tolerance and Partial Tolerance Groups as defined below) and those who do not (Treatment Failure Group).

Descrição detalhada
Clinical Objectives:
- To evaluate whether PN OIT induces increased tolerance, defined as a statistically significant increase in the median eliciting dose (ED) from a double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) before and after treatment with PN OIT and after subsequent allergen avoidance.
- To evaluate whether PN OIT induces clinical desensitization, defined as 1) a median 10-fold or greater increase in ED at DBPCFC before and after PN OIT treatment period 2) a statistically significant higher median ED at DBPCFC following treatment period between active and control treatment; and 3) a significantly lower frequency of accidental ingestion reactions in active versus control treatment.
- To evaluate the safety of PN OIT.
Mechanistic Objectives:
- To determine whether PN OIT induces a statistically significant increase in the TCR clonal diversity of Treg populations during active treatment among participants who achieve increased clinical tolerance (Tolerance and Partial Tolerance Groups as defined in clinical endpoints) versus the Treatment Failure Group.
- To determine whether PN OIT suppresses mast cells by inducing a significant suppression of the median ED on end-point dilution skin testing in actively treated participants by the end of maintenance therapy.
- To determine whether PN OIT suppresses basophils as defined by a 10-fold suppression of peanut-specific basophil ED in actively treated participants by end of a maintenance period.
- To determine whether either mast cell or basophil suppression at the end of maintenance therapy is significantly associated with clinical outcomes following avoidance.
Exploratory Objectives:
- To describe the gene expression profiles and clonal diversity of regulatory and effector T cell subsets before and after OIT to better understand the phenotype and ontogeny of these subsets and potentially discover new therapeutic pathways.
- To engineer human MHC class II tetramers on common HLA backgrounds and map T cell epitopes of the dominant peanut allergens for use in validating earlier findings and for future studies of peanut-specific immune responses in humans.

- Women of childbearing potential who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding
- Hemoglobin level less than 12.5 gm/dL at screening. Weight <23 kg
- Use within the past 6 months of other systemic immunomodulatory treatments including allergen immunotherapy, or use of biologics with an immune target, including omalizumab.
- Past or current medical problems or findings from physical examination or laboratory testing that are not listed above, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may pose additional risks from participation in the study, may interfere with the participant's ability to comply with study requirements or that may impact the quality or interpretation of the data obtained from the study may also exclude a participant from the study.

Mechanistic: TCR Clonal Diversity
Prazo: 630 days

The change in the TCR clonal diversity of in vitro allergen-expanded Treg cells and induced Treg cells measured by TCRB CDR3 sequence clonotyping of sorted cells during active treatment among participants who achieve increased clinical tolerance (Tolerance and Partial Tolerance Groups as defined in clinical endpoints) versus the Treatment Failure Group. We conducted a nested case-control analysis of a subset of actively treated (by treatment outcome) versus placebo treated patients. Genomic DNA was used to amplify and sequence the complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) regions (immunoSEQ assay; Adaptive Biotechnologies). Enriched clonotypes in the CD154+ fraction (doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.05.11.088286) were analyzed for differences by Rank Abundance Curve analysis (R package alakazam; Chao A, et al. Ecology. 2015 96, 11891201) to determine differences in clonal diversity. |

Prazo: 630 days

Statistically significant gene expression changes (as number of genes) by transcriptional profiling of regulatory and effector T cell populations before and after OIT between clinical outcome groups. Total RNA from CD154+ and CD154-CD69- T cells was used for cDNA synthesis and amplification. Libraries were prepared and sequenced to a read depth of approximately 30 million reads per sample (Illumina HiSeq) and aligned to the hg19 human reference genome with the ensemble version 75 annotation using STAR version 2.5.3a,(Dobin et al. Bioinformatics 2013) and gene expression was summarized using RSEM version 1.3.0 (Li et al. BMC Bioinform 2013). Differential expression analysis was performed using DESeq2 v 1.30.1 (R v 4.04). Significance level was set at an unadjusted P value less than .001. |
