DBV Technologies to Participate in Upcoming AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress
DBV Technologies (Euronext: DBV - ISIN: FR0010417345 - Nasdaq Stock Market: DBVT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the company will participate in the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology and World Allergy Organization (AAAAI/WAO) Joint Congress, February 28-March 3, 2025, in San Diego, CA.
An oral abstract presentation by Dr. David Fleischer, FAAAAI, FACAAI, Professor of Pediatrics at Children's Hospital Colorado, will describe Month 60 (M60), end-of-study efficacy and safety results from PEOPLE (the open-label extension of the 12-month, double-blind placebo-controlled, Phase 3 PEPITES study in peanut allergic children aged 4-11 years). All eligible participants who enrolled in PEOPLE were treated with VIASKIN® peanut patch for up to 60 months. Highlights from the presentation include:
- Among PEOPLE participants, the percentage of treatment responders (per PEPITES criteria) increased from 39.1% at PEPITES completion to 52.9% at M36 to 73.3% at M60 (versus 88% at M60 among PEOPLE participants who completed the double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge [DBPCFC] at M60).
- Participants achieving an eliciting dose (ED) =1000 mg of peanut protein (the equivalent of 3-4 peanut kernels) increased from 33.3% at PEPITES completion to 48.3% at M36 to 66.7% at M60 (versus 80% at M60 among participants who completed the DBPCFC at M60).
- Similarly, participants achieving an ED =2000 mg of peanut protein (the equivalent of 6-8 peanut kernels) increased from 2.3% at PEPITES completion to 16.1% at M36 to 33.3% at M60 (versus 40.0% at M60 among participants who completed the DBPCFC at M60).
- Most TEAEs were mild to moderate local skin reactions and decreased in frequency and severity over time.
- Overall mean treatment compliance at five years remained high at 93.1%.
Dr. Fleischer will also deliver a presentation on epicutaneous immunotherapy with the VIASKIN peanut patch and its clinical profile at the American Association of Allergists and Immunologists of Indian Origin (AAAII) Semi-Annual Meeting and Symposium, February 28, 2025, in San Diego, CA. The presentation will describe the immunological properties of the skin as a potent route for food allergen desensitization.
Professors Hugh Sampson, MD, of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (New York, NY), Helen Brough, MBBS, PhD, of Guy's and St Thomas'? NHS Foundation Trust (London, UK), and moderator Douglas Mack, MSc, MD, of McMaster University (Ontario, Canada), will discuss key attributes of epicutaneous immunotherapy resulting from the skin's unique capabilities, including controlled allergen delivery, reduced systemic exposure risk, and non-invasive, simple administration, at DBV's non-CME Product Theater titled, "From Trigger to Tolerance: Harnessing the Skin's Dual role with Epicutaneous Immunotherapy". The Product Theater is scheduled for Saturday, March 1, from 10:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. PST in the San Diego Convention Center, Exhibit Hall A.
DBV will host a booth (#1740) in the AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress exhibit hall where attendees can learn more about epicutaneous immunotherapy with the VIASKIN® peanut patch, including the company's ongoing and planned clinical trials in peanut-allergic children.
"The compelling five-year results from the PEPITES open label extension that are being presented at this year's AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress help to further characterize the long-term efficacy and safety of the VIASKIN® peanut patch and add to the growing body of evidence, which demonstrates its potential as a breakthrough treatment for children suffering from peanut allergy if approved," stated Pharis Mohideen, Chief Medical Officer of DBV. "Perhaps most notably from the PEOPLE data, treatment benefit continued to accumulate over time, with approximately 2/3 of study subjects reaching an ED of 1,000 mg or more of peanut protein, approximately equivalent to 3-4 peanut kernels, at Month 60, while the incidence of adverse events - most of which were mild-to-moderate local skin reactions - decreased in frequency and severity over that same time period."
"The fact that treatment compliance exceeded 93% at five years gives us confidence in VIASKIN® peanut patch's ability to become a practical new treatment option in peanut allergy upon approval. To that end, we are committed to efficiently completing the remaining studies in support of two distinct regulatory submissions - one in toddlers aged 1-3 years, and one in children aged 4-7 years," concluded Dr. Mohideen.

About DBV Technologies
DBV Technologies is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing treatment options for food allergies and other immunologic conditions with significant unmet medical need. DBV 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® 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 is committed to transforming the care of food allergic people. The Company's food allergy programs include ongoing clinical trials of VIASKIN Peanut in peanut allergic toddlers (1 through 3 years of age) and children (4 through 7 years of age).
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 (Ticker: DBV, ISIN code: FR0010417345) and the Company's ADSs (each representing five ordinary shares) are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Ticker: DBVT; CUSIP: 23306J309).
