オマリズマブが多食品アレルギー治療で経口免疫療法より優れていることを発見(Omalizumab Treats Multi-Food Allergy Better than Oral Immunotherapy)

​米国国立衛生研究所(NIH)の臨床試験により、抗IgE抗体薬であるオマリズマブ(商品名:ゾレア)が、複数の食物アレルギーを持つ患者に対して、経口免疫療法(OIT)よりも効果的であることが示されました。​OITは、アレルゲンとなる食品を徐々に増量して摂取し、アレルギー反応を減少させる一般的な治療法ですが、副作用の発生率が高いことが課題とされています。​この試験では、オマリズマブを長期間投与された参加者の36%が、2グラム以上のアレルゲンを摂取できるようになり、OIT単独群の12%を上回りました。

Rationale

Both omalizumab and oral immunotherapy (OIT) are used to treat multi-food allergy, but the two treatments have never been directly compared.

Methods

In OUtMATCH Stage 2, participants were randomized to receive either double-blind multi-allergen OIT and placebo omalizumab OR omalizumab/placebo OIT. Initially, all participants received 16 weeks of open-label omalizumab; at Week 9 OIT/placebo-OIT was initiated and was escalated to a maintenance goal of 1000mg for each participant’s study-specific foods. At week 16 participants transitioned to blinded injection therapy (omalizumab or placebo) for 44 weeks before being re-challenged (cumulative 8044mg protein/food). The protocol-defined primary endpoint was tolerance of ≥2000 mg (cumulative 4044mg) for all 3 foods.

Results

117 participants were included (55% male, median age 7 years). 51/58 (88%) in the omalizumab group and 30/59 (51%) in the OIT group completed Stage 2. In the intent-to-treat analysis of the primary endpoint, omalizumab was superior to OIT (success 36% versus 19%, OR 2.6, P=0.031). Superiority was also demonstrated for success for ≥2 foods (P=0.004) and numerous other secondary endpoints. There were no differences in the per-protocol analysis, which excluded dropouts (primary endpoint P=0.66). Serious adverse events (0% vs. 30.5%), AEs leading to treatment discontinuation (0% versus 22.0%), and AEs treated with epinephrine (6.9% versus 37.3%) were all more common in the OIT group.

Conclusions

Omalizumab was superior to multi-allergen OIT in the treatment of multi-food allergy. These differences were largely driven by the high rate of AEs leading to study discontinuation in the OIT-treated participants, despite receiving omalizumab treatment at the initiation of therapy.
