Have You or Your Teen Been Diagnosed with Peanut Allergy?
You may be eligible
for a new research study.
IgGenix ACCELERATE Peanut Study
If you or your teen has been diagnosed with peanut allergy, you may be eligible to take part in a new study exploring whether an investigational medicine called IGNX001 can help treat peanut allergy in teens and adults.
Overview
The phase 1, randomised, double-blind study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of an injectable, allergen-specific antibodies that targets peanut protein.
The study will help understand if IGNX001 can be used to help ease allergic reactions that might happen after accidental peanut exposure. It will monitor the safety of IGNX001, track how participants respond to it, and explore whether participants improve their tolerance to peanut protein exposure after receiving IGNX001.
The study is recruiting participants at Fiona Stanley Hospital (Western Australia), St Vincent’s Hospital (New South Wales), The Royal Melbourne Hospital and Monash Health (Victoria).
What’s involved in the study
The study runs for up to six months, and involves:
-
Regular visits to your study centre
-
Receiving up to four injections
-
Undertaking a series of tests and assessments to monitor your health during the study, including your medical history, prior and current medications, physical exams, blood and urine samples, electrocardiograms (ECG), skin prick tests and peanut oral food challenges.
Who can take part?
To pre-qualify for this study, you or your teen must:
-
Be 15 to 55 years old
-
Have a history of peanut allergy, including having experienced a serious allergic reaction to peanut in the past 15 years
-
Be willing to avoid peanuts and other allergy inducing foods during the study.
You or your teen cannot take part if you have:
