Ethics approval(s)MREC approved on the 01/02/2010 (ref: 09/H0308/154)
ConditionTopic: Generic Health Relevance and Cross Cutting Themes; Subtopic: Generic Health Relevance (all Subtopics); Disease: Paediatrics
InterventionThere are two work packages:

Package 1:
The active group will undergo oral peanut immunotherapy (OIT - the intervention) and the control group will undergo a waiting list period of current standard management for 5 months. Both groups will then undergo double blind peanut challenge to determine tolerance.

Package 2:
Those subjects in the waiting list control group who are still allergic at the end of the period of standard management will undergo peanut immunotherapy. After active treatment the control group will undergo a final double blind peanut challenge. Peanut oral immunotherpy consists of daily doses of oral peanut flour. The dose increases every 2 weeks according to the schedule: 5, 12, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 mg peanut protein equivalence.
