In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This is a multi-center, mechanistic study. It is designed to learn more about signs in the body, called biomarkers, that might show if someone will have a reaction to peanut during a feeding test. The trial will enroll children ages 12 months to17 years old who are suspected of having an allergy to peanut. The primary objective is to identify a biomarker (or a combination of biomarkers) that will predict oral food challenge (OFC) (feeding test) results for participants with suspected peanut allergy.

Inability to comply with the required aspects of the study protocol 6. Have past or current medical conditions or findings from the physical examination, not already listed, that, in the judgment of the site investigator, may pose additional risks related to participation in the study, interfere with the participant's ability to comply with study requirements, or impact the quality or interpretation of the study data 7. Have been treated with oral steroid or beta blockers within 14 days of the Oral Food Challenge (OFC) 8. Are unable to discontinue medications, as specified in the Protocol CoFAR-15 MOP, for the minimum wash-out periods prior to Skin Prick Test (SPT) or OFC 9. Have poorly controlled atopic dermatitis (AD) at Screening, per the PI's discretion 10. Have poorly controlled or severe asthma/wheezing at Screening, as defined as experiencing or including any of the following: 1. Meeting the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) criteria for uncontrolled asthma 2. History of two or more systemic corticosteroid courses within six months of Screening or one course of systemic corticosteroids within three months of Screening to treat asthma/wheezing; 3. Prior intubation/mechanical ventilation for asthma/wheezing; 4. One hospitalization or ED visit for asthma/wheezing within six months of Screening; 5. Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) \<80% of predicted or FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) \<75% of predicted, with or without controller medications (only for participants who are aged seven years or older and are able to perform spirometry); 6.
