Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria: * Age 4 to 17 years, inclusive * Clinical history of allergy to peanuts * Serum SPT ≥ 3 mm greater than control and/or psIgE ≥ 0.35 kUa/L * Dose limiting symptoms after consuming a single dose of peanut protein ≤ 300 mg * Written informed consent from the subject's parent/guardian * Written assent from the subject as appropriate (per local regulatory requirements) * Use of effective birth control by sexually active female subjects of childbearing potential Key
Exclusion criteria
* History of cardiovascular disease, including uncontrolled or inadequately controlled hypertension * History of severe asthma (NHLBI criteria steps 5 or 6), or mild to moderate asthma (2007 NHLBI criteria steps 1-4) that is uncontrolled or difficult to control * History of severe or life threatening episode of anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock within 60 days of screening * History of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), other eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease, chronic, recurrent, or severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), symptoms of dysphagia or recurrent gastrointestinal symptoms of undiagnosed etiology * History of a mast cell disorder, including mastocytosis, urticaria pigmentosa, chronic idiopathic or chronic physical urticaria beyond simple dermatographism (e.g., cold urticaria, cholinergic urticaria), and hereditary or idiopathic angioedema * Any other condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, precludes participation for reasons of safety

Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| AR101 AR101 drug product was supplied in 2 presentations. These were pull-apart capsules containing 0.5, 1, 10, 20 and 100mg of peanut protein and sealed sachets containing 300mg of peanut protein.
The capsules were used during the Initial Escalation and Up-dosing phases of the study. The sachets were used during the Maintenance phase. | 132 |
| Placebo A placebo matching the AR101 drug product was supplied in 2 presentations. These were capsules matching the 0.5, 1, 10, 20 and 100mg peanut capsules but containing no peanut protein, and sealed sachets matching the peanut protein sachets but without any peanut protein. The capsules were used during the Initial Escalation and Up-dosing phases of the study, while the sachets were used during the Maintenance phase. | 43 |
