DBV Technologies Announces Submission of Biologics License Application to U.S. FDA for the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch in Children Aged 4-7 Years
- The BLA is supported by the results from the successful Phase 3 VITESSE trial – the largest immunotherapy clinical trial to date for this population.
- DBV has requested Priority Review of the BLA.
DBV Technologies (Euronext: DBV – ISIN: FR0010417345 – Nasdaq Stock Market: DBVT), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the Company has submitted a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch in children with peanut allergy aged 4 through 7 years.
DBV has requested Priority Review of the BLA. The FDA previously granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch.
“The submission of our BLA brings VIASKIN® Peanut Patch, a non-invasive, practical treatment option, one step closer to being available for children ages 4 through 7 living with peanut allergy, and marks a significant milestone in DBV’s transformation into a commercial organization,” said Daniel Tassé, Chief Executive Officer of DBV Technologies. “This BLA reflects years of rigorous clinical development, meaningful contributions from the entire food allergy community, and ongoing collaboration with the FDA. We are grateful for the Agency’s constructive engagement over the last few months and look forward to working closely with them during the review process.”
The VIASKIN® Patch uses epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT), an innovative, non-oral, non-injection approach to food allergy treatment that delivers small amounts of an allergen protein through the skin. By using the immune properties of the skin, the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch is designed to progressively desensitize children to peanut allergy.
The BLA is supported by the positive results from the VITESSE Phase 3 clinical trial of the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch in 654 children ages 4 through 7 years with peanut allergy. VITESSE is the largest immunotherapy clinical trial to date for this population.
About the VITESSE Study
VITESSE (NCT05741476) is a global Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the VIASKIN® Peanut patch (250 µg) in children ages 4-7 years with peanut allergy. The study enrolled 654 children randomized 2:1 to receive either VIASKIN® Peanut Patch or placebo. Conducted at 86 sites across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia, VITESSE represents the largest immunotherapy clinical trial for this patient population. The primary endpoint is the difference between the percentage of treatment responders in the active versus placebo group after 12 months of treatment. Following the 12-month double-blind period, children were given the option to continue into an open-label extension where all participants receive VIASKIN® Peanut Patch for up to a total of three years on treatment.
About DBV Technologies
DBV Technologies is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing treatment options for food allergies and other immunologic conditions with significant unmet medical need. DBV Technologies is currently focused on investigating the use of its proprietary VIASKIN® Patch technology to address food allergies, which are caused by a hypersensitive immune reaction and characterized by a range of symptoms varying in severity from mild to life-threatening anaphylaxis. Millions of people live with food allergies, including young children. Through epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT), the VIASKIN® Peanut Patch is designed to introduce microgram amounts of a biologically active compound to the immune system through intact skin. EPIT is a new class of non-invasive treatment that seeks to modify an individual’s underlying allergy by re-educating the immune system to become desensitized to allergen by leveraging the skin’s immune tolerizing properties. DBV Technologies is committed to transforming the care of people with food allergies. The Company’s food allergy programs include ongoing clinical trials of VIASKIN® Peanut Patch in toddlers (1 through 3 years of age) and children (4 through 7 years of age) with peanut allergy.
DBV Technologies is headquartered in Châtillon, France, with North American operations in Warren, NJ. The Company’s ordinary shares are traded on segment B of Euronext Paris (DBV, ISIN code: FR0010417345) and the Company’s ADSs (each representing five ordinary shares) are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (DBVT – CUSIP: 23306J309).
