VTP-1000 for Adults with Celiac Disease

This study is testing a new treatment called VTP-1000 for adults with celiac disease. VTP-1000 is an intramuscular (IM) injection made of tiny particles containing gluten peptides and a medicine called rapamycin. It aims to help your immune system become more tolerant to gluten. Researchers want to see if VTP-1000 is safe and how well it's tolerated compared to a placebo (a saline solution injection). You might be able to join if you are 18 to 70 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of celiac disease, and are on a well-controlled gluten-restricted diet. The study will also look at how VTP-1000 affects your immune system and if it can help manage celiac disease after a controlled gluten challenge. The current status of this study is unclear.

Study design
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with an unclear phase, aiming to enroll 45 participants. It will compare different doses of VTP-1000 to a placebo.
What's involved
Participants will receive intramuscular injections and be assessed for safety through blood tests and physical exams. Those in the multiple dose part of the study will also undergo a controlled gluten challenge.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be assessed for up to 21 days after the first dose in the single dose part, and up to 57 days after the first dose in the multiple dose part of the study.
