Primary Objective:
To assess tolerability and safety of SAR439794 [peanut extract (PE) sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) adjuvanted with Glucopyranosyl Lipid A (GLA)] after repeated sublingual (SL) daily administration in peanut allergic adult and adolescent patients.
Secondary Objective:
To assess pharmacodynamics of SAR439794 after repeated SL daily administration in peanut allergic adult and adolescent patients.

- Adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to Week 52 ]Number of participants with AEs
- Assessment of pharmacodynamic (PD) parameter: Peanut-specific serum Immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels [ Time Frame: Baseline to Day 85 ]Change from baseline to Day 85 in peanut-specific serum IgGs levels in patients administered with Glucopyranosyl Lipid A (GLA) + Sublingual Immuno Therapy Peanut Extract (SLIT PE) versus placebo for GLA + SLIT PE
- Assessment of PD parameter: Peanut-specific serum IgG levels [ Time Frame: Baseline to Day 57 ]Change from baseline to Day 57 in peanut-specific serum IgGs levels (total P-sIgGs, P-sIgG4 and P-sIgG1) in patients administered with GLA + SLIT PE versus placebo for GLA + SLIT PE
- Assessment of PD parameter: Peanut-specific serum Immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels [ Time Frame: Baseline to Day 57, Baseline to Day 85 ]Change from baseline to Day 57 and Day 85 in peanut-specific IgE in patients administered with GLA + SLIT PE versus placebo for GLA + SLIT PE
- Assessment of PD parameter: Skin Prick Test [ Time Frame: On Day 85 ]Absolute change from baseline in Skin Prick Test (SPT) to peanut allergen at Day 85 only in patients administered with GLA + SLIT PE versus placebo for GLA + SLIT PE
- Maximum SLIT PE dose [ Time Frame: On Day 85 ]Maximum SLIT PE dose reached by patients administered with GLA + SLIT PE versus placebo GLA + SLIT PE

Ages Eligible for Study: | 12 Years to 55 Years (Child, Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion criteria :
- Male or female patients, between 18 and 55 years of age, inclusive and adolescents between 12 and 17 years of age (after enrollment of 20 adult patients completed the 6 weeks dose escalation period and the safety and tolerability is deemed acceptable).
- Physician-diagnosed peanut allergy OR convincing history of objective clinical symptoms consistent with immediate hypersensitivity within 4 hours following known ingestion of peanuts or peanut-containing food AND by the following combined criteria:
- Peanut-specific IgE (P-sIgE) >5 kUA/L and Arah2-specific IgE (Arah2-sIgE) >2 kUA/L,
- Skin Prick Test (SPT) to peanut allergen ≥5 mm compared to saline control.
- High-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibrinogen and neutrophil count within laboratory normal range unless the Investigator considers an abnormality to be clinically irrelevant.
- Ability to perform spirometry based on the American Thoracic Society guidelines.
- Patient must be trained on the proper use of an injectable epinephrine device and should be able to use it.
Exclusion criteria:
- Any history or presence of autoimmune, cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, malignancy, psychiatric illness, or gastrointestinal inflammatory conditions, including celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease and eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders.
- History of severe anaphylaxis, documented hypotension, neurological compromise (confusion, loss of consciousness), or incontinence known or suspected to be caused by ingestion of peanut or that required treatment with 2 or more administrations of epinephrine or hospitalization.
