P-639811-PCMRNA VACCINE FOR PEANUT ALLERGY TREATMENTSEQUENCE LISTING
[0001] The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted electronically in XML file format and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said XML copy, created on September 12, 2025, is named P-639811-PC_SL.xml and is 33,592 bytes in size.FIELD OF DISCLOSURE
[0002] The disclosure presented herein is in the field of messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine, and particularly relates to lipid nanoparticles comprising mRNA molecules encoding deepitoped Ara h 1 and de-epitoped Ara h 2, vaccines comprising the lipid nanoparticles and methods for inducing desensitization to peanuts and / or immunomodulation of a response to peanuts in a subject allergic to peanuts.BACKGROUND
[0003] Peanut allergy is among the most common food allergies and is the most common cause of fatal food reactions and anaphylaxis (Lange et al., Allergo journal international 30 (2021): 261-269). The prevalence of peanut allergy has increased 3.5-fold over the past 2 decades, reaching 1.4% to 2% in Europe and the US (Lange et al., Allergo journal international 30 (2021): 261-269). Unlike other food allergies that tend to resolve in childhood or adolescence, peanut allergy persists into adulthood in approximately 75% to 80% of cases (reviewed in Lieberman, et al., Allergy 76.5 (2021): 1367-1384). Allergies to peanuts have a range of clinical presentations from mild cutaneous manifestations to severe anaphylaxis, a potentially life threatening systemic allergic reaction that usually occurs within minutes of exposure. The daily burden on patients with peanut allergy and their families can be substantial, resulting in a poorer quality of life due to the potential dangers in their environment and the fear of fatal anaphylaxis (Peters et al., Pediatric Allergy and Immunology 32.4 (2021): 647-657).P-639811-PC
[0004] The allergic reaction to peanut allergens is mediated through IgE antibodies. Allergens bound by IgE antibodies activate mast cells and basophils via the fragment crystallizable epsilon receptors (FceR) leading to their degranulation and release of histamines and cytokines into the blood which induces hypersensitivity reactions and anaphylaxis. Therapeutic approaches to peanut allergy mainly involve allergen immunotherapy whereby frequent administration of small and gradually increasing amounts of allergen first lead to desensitization of mast cells and basophils. This is followed by the induction of therapeutically beneficial allergen-specific IgG antibodies which inhibit IgE-mediated responses, and eventually a shift of allergen specific T and B cell responses away from a pathogenic phenotype (Durham and Shamji, Nature Reviews Immunology 23.5 (2023): 317-328).
[0005] There are two FDA-approved therapies for peanut allergy: Palforzia®, an oral allergen immunotherapy using whole peanut protein, and Xolair®, an injectable antibody that inhibits IgE antibody activation of FceR upon allergen exposure (Barshow et al., Annual Review of Immunology 42 (2024); Erlich, Deborah. American Family Physician 105.1 (2022): 20-21).
[0006] Known immunotherapies compositions have issues with safety and compliance and provide only short term protective effects.
[0007] In recent years, mRNA therapies have emerged as a promising avenue for various diseases, offering targeted and potentially safer alternatives. In contrast to DNA vaccines, mRNA vaccines cannot integrate into the host genome and are transiently expressed. Recent murine studies have demonstrated that mRNA vaccines have the potential to treat allergies through induction of a long-term memory response (Hattinger, et al., Journal of Immunology Research 2015.1 (2015): 797421) and by skewing the Th2 response towards tolerogenic phenotype (Xu, et al., ACS nano 17.5 (2023): 4942-4957).
[0008] In light of these auspicious results, there is still a need for mRNA vaccine compositions optimized for treating peanut allergy, e,g., mRNA vaccine compositions comprising a specific mRNA molecule encoding modified and safe proteins with specific UTR sequences and signal peptides that can overcome the disadvantages of existingP-639811-PC treatments and reduce the risk of hypersensitivity reactions while still inducing therapeutically beneficial allergen-specific immune responses. The choice of specific UTRs, signal peptides and other components of the mRNA molecule (such as PolyA length and specific capping) can greatly influence the stability and expression level of the mRNA molecules which in turn can enhance the immunotherapeutic potential of the mRNA vaccine.
[0009] Advantageously, such alternative compositions comprise mRNA molecules encoding modified variants (de-epitoped) of the two immunodominant peanut allergens, Ara h 1 and Ara h 2 (Palladino, Molecular immunology 100 (2018): 58-70.). Both modified allergens have substantially reduced IgE antibody binding but retain immunogenicity through allergen-specific IgG binding and activation of T cells, and can overcome the challenges of the current therapies by safely and quickly modulating immune responses to peanut allergens.SUMMARY

[0087] The modified nucleotides, which may be incorporated into a polynucleotide, primary construct, or RNA molecule, can be modified on the internucleoside linkage (e.g., phosphate backbone). Herein, in the context of the polynucleotide backbone, the phrases "phosphate" and "phosphodiester" are used interchangeably. Backbone phosphate groups can be modified by replacing one or more of the oxygen atoms with a different substituent. Further, the modified nucleosides and nucleotides can include the wholesale replacement of an unmodified phosphate moiety with another internucleoside linkage as described herein. Examples of modified phosphate groups include, but are not limited to, phosphorothioate, phosphoroselenates, boranophosphates, boranophosphate esters, hydrogen phosphonates, phosphoramidates, phosphorodiamidates, alkyl or aryl phosphonates, and phosphotriesters.

Proteins of the present disclosure may also be codon optimized by methods known in the art, for example, to improve their expression.[000110] In some embodiments, codon-optimization refers to alteration of codons in a coding region of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a nucleotide sequence) to reflect the typical codon usage of a host organism (e.g., a subject receiving a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a nucleotide sequence)) preferably without altering the amino acid sequence encoded by the nucleic acid molecule. In some embodiments, coding regions are codon- optimized for optimal expression in a subject to be treated using the RNA molecules described herein. In some embodiments, codon-optimization may be performed such that codons for which frequently occurring tRNAs are available are inserted in place of "rare codons."[000111] A given amino acid can be replaced by a residue having similar physiochemical characteristics, e.g., substituting one aliphatic residue for another (such as lie, Vai, Leu, or Ala for one another), or substitution of one polar residue for another (such as between Lys and Arg; Glu and Asp; or Gin and Asn). Other such conservative substitutions, e.g., substitutions of entire regions having similar hydrophobicity characteristics, are well known. Polypeptides comprising conservative amino acid substitutions can be tested to confirm that the desired activity of the polypeptide is retained.[000112] In some embodiments, a polynucleotide (e.g., a polyribonucleotide or a nucleotide sequence) of the present disclosure is codon optimized, wherein the codons in the polynucleotide (e.g., the polyribonucleotide) are adapted to human codon usage.P-639811-PC[000113] Amino acids can be grouped according to similarities in the properties of their side chains (in A. L. Lehninger, in Biochemistry, second ed., pp. 73-75, Worth Publishers, New York (1975)): (1) non-polar: Ala (A), Vai (V), Leu (L), lie (I), Pro (P), Phe (F), Trp (W), Met (M); (2) uncharged polar: Gly (G), Ser (S), Thr (T), Cys (C), Tyr (Y), Asn (N), Gin (Q); (3) acidic: Asp (D), Glu (E); (4) basic: Lys (K), Arg (R), His (H).[000114] Alternatively, naturally occurring residues can be divided into groups based on common side-chain properties: (1) hydrophobic: Norleucine, Met, Ala, Vai, Leu, lie; (2) neutral hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr, Asn, Gin; (3) acidic: Asp, Glu; (4) basic: His, Lys, Arg; (5) residues that influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro; (6) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe. Non-conservative substitutions entail exchanging a member of one of these classes for another class.[000115] Particular conservative substitutions include, for example; Ala into Gly or into Ser; Arg into Lys; Asn into Gin or into H is; Asp into Glu; Cys into Ser; Gin into Asn; Glu into Asp; Gly into Ala or into Pro; His into Asn or into Gin; lie into Leu or into Vai; Leu into lie or into Vai; Lys into Arg, into Gin or into Glu; Met into Leu, into Tyr or into lie; Phe into Met, into Leu or into Tyr; Ser into Thr; Thr into Ser; Trp into Tyr; Tyr into Trp; and / or Phe into Vai, into lie or into Leu.5' cap[000116] In some embodiments, a mRNA molecule described herein comprises a 5' cap. In some embodiments, the 5' cap is a 7-methylguanosine cap (also known as "m7G" or "Cap-0"), comprising a guanosine that is linked through a 5' - 5' - triphosphate bond to the first transcribed nucleotide. In some embodiments, the mRNA comprises a 5' cap selected from the group consisting of 3'-O-Me-m7G(5')ppp(5')G (the ARCA cap), G(5')ppp(5')A, G(5')ppp(5')G, m7G(5')ppp(5')A, m7G(5')ppp(5')G, m7G(5,)ppp(5,)(2,OMeA)pG, m7G(5,)ppp(5,)(2,OMeA)pU, and m7G(5')ppp(5')(2'OMeG)pG.[000117] In some embodiments, the 5'-cap is a structure found on the 5'-end of an RNA, e.g., mRNA, and generally includes a guanosine nucleotide connected to an RNA,P-639811-PC e.g., mRNA, via a 5'- to 5'-triphosphate linkage (also referred to as Gppp or G(5')ppp(5')). In some embodiments, a guanosine nucleoside included in a 5' cap may be modified, for example, by methylation at one or more positions (e.g., at the 7-position) on a base (guanine), and / or by methylation at one or more positions of a ribose. In some embodiments, a guanosine nucleoside included in a 5' cap comprises a 3'0 methylation at a ribose (3'0MeG). In some embodiments, a guanosine nucleoside included in a 5' cap comprises methylation at the 7-position of guanine (m7G). In some embodiments, a guanosine nucleoside included in a 5' cap comprises methylation at the 7'-position of guanine and a 3' 0 methylation at a ribose (m7(3'OMeG)).[000118] In some embodiments, the 5'-cap structure is a capO (methylation of the first nucleobase, e.g., m7GpppN), capl (additional methylation of the ribose of the adjacent nucleotide of m7GpppN), cap2 (additional methylation of the ribose of the 2nd nucleotide downstream of the m7GpppN), cap3 (additional methylation of the ribose of the 3rd nucleotide downstream of the m7GpppN), cap4 (additional methylation of the ribose of the 4th nucleotide downstream of the m7GpppN), ARCA ("anti-reverse cap analogue"), modified ARCA (e.g. phosphothioate modified ARCA), inosine, N1 -methylguanosine, 2'-fluoro-guanosine, 7-deaza-guanosine, 8-oxo-guanosine, 2-amino- guanosine, LNA-guanosine, and 2-azido-guanosine.5' UTR and 3' UTR[000119] In some embodiments, the mRNA molecules described herein comprise at least one UTR (Untranslated Region). In some embodiments, the mRNA molecules comprise at least one 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) and / or at least one 3' untranslated region (3' UTR). In some embodiments, the mRNA molecules comprise at least one 5' untranslated region (5' UTR). In some embodiments, the mRNA molecules comprise at least one 3' untranslated region (3' UTR). In some embodiments, the mRNA molecules comprise at least one 5' untranslated region (5' UTR), at least one 3' untranslated region (3' UTR), and at least one polyadenylation (poly(A)) sequence.P-639811-PC[000120] In some embodiments, the UTR (Untranslated Region) comprises sequences of nucleotides that are at the 5' and 3' ends of a mRNA molecule which are not translated. In some embodiments, the 5' UTR influences mRNA stability and translation efficiency. In some embodiments, the 5' UTR contains elements that help ribosomes identify the start codon. In some embodiments, the 5' UTR starts at the transcription start site and continues to the start codon but does not include the start codon.[000121] In some embodiments, the "untranslated region" or "UTR" is commonly used in the art to refer to a region in a DNA molecule which is transcribed but is not translated into an amino acid sequence, or to the corresponding region in an RNA polynucleotide, such as an mRNA molecule. An untranslated region (UTR) can be present 5' (upstream) of an open reading frame (5' UTR) and / or 3' (downstream) of an open reading frame (3' UTR). In some embodiments, the "five prime untranslated region" or "5' UTR" refer to a sequence of a nucleotide sequence between the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence (e.g., a transcription start site) and a start codon of a coding region of the nucleotide sequence. In some embodiments, "5' UTR" refers to a sequence of a nucleotide sequence that begins at the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence (e.g., a transcription start site) and ends one nucleotide (nt) before a start codon (usually AUG) of a coding region of the nucleotide sequence, e.g., in its natural context. In some embodiments, a 5' UTR comprises a Kozak sequence. A 5' UTR is downstream of the 5'- cap (if present), e.g., directly adjacent to the 5'-cap. In some embodiments, a 5' UTR disclosed herein comprises a cap proximal sequence, e.g., as defined and described herein. In some embodiments, a cap proximal sequence comprises a sequence adjacent to a 5' cap.In some embodiments, an RNA utilized in accordance with the present disclosure comprises a 3' UTR. As used herein, the terms "three prime untranslated region," "3' untranslated region," or "3' UTR" refer to a sequence of an mRNA molecule that begins following a stop codon of a coding region of an open reading frame sequence. In some embodiments, the 3' UTR begins immediately after a stop codon of a coding region of an open reading frame sequence, e.g., in its natural context. In other embodiments, the 3'P-639811-PCUTR does not begin immediately after stop codon of the coding region of an open reading frame sequence, e.g., in its natural context. The term "3' UTR" preferably does not include the poly(A) sequence. Thus, the 3' UTR is upstream of the poly(A) sequence (if present), e.g. directly adjacent to the poly(A) sequence. For example, disclosed sequences can include regions preceding and following the coding region, e.g., 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) or "leader" sequences and 3' UTR or "trailer" sequences, as well as intervening sequences (introns) between individual coding segments (exons). It will be appreciated that the disclosed mRNA sequences may include one or more stop codons, e.g., placed between the de-epitoped Ara h 1 or 2 sequence and the 3' UTR.[000122] In some embodiments, the 3' UTR controls mRNA stability, localization, and translation. In some embodiments, the 3' UTR starts immediately following the stop codon and continues until the transcriptional termination signal. In some embodiments, UTRs are associated with processes of mRNA translation, and by interacting with RNA- binding proteins and microRNAs, UTRs can influence mRNA's translation efficiency and resistance to degradation.[000123] In some embodiments, the mRNA molecule disclosed herein comprises a 5' and / or 3' heterologous UTR, which is derived from the UTRs of the mRNA transcript (i.e., the UTRs of Ara h 1 or Ara h 2 genes).

For diagnosis of peanut allergy by food challenge, the subject receives increasing doses of peanut protein. An observed allergic reaction to the peanut protein during the food challenge indicates the subject has a peanut allergy and is a candidate for variant protein immunotherapy. The judgment of whether a subject reacts to a particular dose during the food challenge depends on the test criteria, which can vary. A reaction in a food challenge can be judged by the severity of symptoms (e.g., mild, moderate, or severe) and / or the observability of the symptom (e.g., whether a symptom is subjectively reported by the patient or objectively observed by the medical caregiver). In some embodiments, the reaction is an anaphylactic reaction. In some embodiments, treatment with the variants disclosed herein results in a decreased anaphylactic reaction, e.g., from severe to a moderate reaction.[000226] The level of peanut specific IgE can be measured from a patient serum sample (i.e., to measure a serum level) or from a patient plasma sample (i.e., to measure a plasma level). Whole blood can be drawn from the patient, and the serum or plasma can be isolated from the whole blood using known methods. The level of ps-lgE can be measured in vitro, for example, using a quantitative immunoassay. Quantitative immunoassays are known in the art, and can include, but are not limited to, an enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); an alkaline phosphatase immunoassay autoanalyzer, such as an IMMULITE® system (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Erlangen, Germany); a radioallergosorbent test (RAST), or a fluoroenzyme immunoassay autoanalyzer, such as the ImmunoCAP® system (Thermo Fisher Scientific / Phadia, Uppsala,P-639811-PCSweden) or UniCAP™ (Phadia AB, Uppsala, Sweden). A fluorescence enzyme immunoassay (FEIA) auto-analyzer (e.g., ImmunoCAP® system) is a preferred technique, although other techniques may be reliably used. For example, another technique may be used as the level of antibody (e.g., IgE) determined by that technique may be normalized to a measurement by a fluorescence enzyme immunoassay auto-analyzer. That is, a level of antibody (e.g., IgE) can be determined by a technique, and can correspond to a level as measured by a fluorescence enzyme immunoassay auto-analyzer. According to some embodiments, BAT or MAT assays may be used.[000227] The phrase "anaphylaxis" or "anaphylactic reaction", as used herein, refers to a subset of allergic reactions characterized by mast cell degranulation secondary to cross-linking of the high-affinity IgE receptor on mast cells and basophils induced by an anaphylactic allergen with subsequent mediator release and the production of severe systemic pathological responses in target organs, e.g., airway, skin digestive tract, and cardiovascular system. As is known in the art, the severity of an anaphylactic reaction may be monitored, for example, by assaying cutaneous reactions, puffiness around the eyes and mouth, vomiting, and / or diarrhea, followed by respiratory reactions such as wheezing and labored respiration. The most severe anaphylactic reactions can result in loss of consciousness and / or death.[000228] The phrase "decreased anaphylactic reaction", as used herein, relates to a decrease in clinical symptoms following treatment of symptoms associated with exposure to an anaphylactic allergen, which can involve exposure via cutaneous, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and mucosal (e.g., ocular, nasal, and aural) surfaces.[000229] The phrase "decreased anaphylactic reaction", as used herein, relates to a decrease in clinical symptoms following treatment of symptoms associated with exposure to an anaphylactic allergen, which can involve exposure via cutaneous, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and mucosal (e.g., ocular, nasal, and aural) surfaces.[000230] As used herein, a "subject" or "patient" (used interchangeably) refers in one embodiment, to a human or any other animal.

They should in no way be construed, however, as limiting the broad scope of the disclosure.EXAMPLESExample 1 - Materials and Methods[000265] Murine allergy immunotherapeutic potential study (utilized in Example 2}[000266] C3H / HeJ 5-7 week-old female mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories (Strain #000659) and housed in specific pathogen-free conditions, room temperature 22°C with 12 hour light / dark cycle (N = 35). Lab Diet 5LOD chow food (peanut free, soy free diet) and filtered tap water provided ad libitum.[000267] Treatment Dosing Regimen: Naive mice were treated with the different mRNA molecules by 2 IM doses of 2 pg three weeks apart (days 1 and 22) and then boosted with a third IM dose of 20 pg approximately 3.5 weeks later on day 47 (see experimental scheme in Figure 2). mRNA-LNP formulations were administered intramuscularly. See Table 2 below.[000268] Naive mice (N=35) were used for determining the immunogenic potential of the various mRNA molecules. The immunogenic potential was determined by evaluating B-cell response by measuring the levels of IgGs produced against the combined modified allergens encoded by the mRNA molecules. IgG levels were determined by ELISA. IgGl and lgG2a antibody titers specific for DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2 were assessed from sera one week after the second dose (day 29), 3 weeks after the second dose (day 43, only for DE-Ara h 2) and 2 weeks after the third dose (day 61) by ELISA. From 5 weeks (day 82) following the last dose, antibody titers specific for DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2 were assessed every 3-4 weeks only for the groups treated with the selected candidates. The use of naive mice at this stage was crucial for evaluating the immunogenic potential since mice with a naive background have no memory response against peanut proteins.P-639811-PC[000269] Murine allergy model intramuscular (IM) immunotherapy efficacy study (utilized in Example 3)[000270] C3H / HeJ 4-5 week-old female mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories (Strain #000659) and housed in specific pathogen-free conditions, room temperature 22°C with 12 hour light / dark cycle. Lab Diet 5LOD chow food (peanut free, soy free diet) and filtered tap water provided by the animal facility ad libitum.[000271] Sensitization: Mice were sensitized 8 times (weeks 0-5) with 2 mg peanut extract (prepared in house from 12% fat light roast peanut flour, Byrd Mill) + 10 pg cholera toxin (CTx) (List Biological Laboratories) diluted in PBS (HyClone Cytiva) to a total volume of 200 pl / per mouse administered by oral gavage after ~3 hours of fasting on Days 0,1,2, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35. Blood was collected from the saphenous vein after the last sensitization and serum was separated by centrifugation. Peanut sensitization was verified by determining peanut-specific IgE titers in ELISA analysis following standard protocol for detection with alkaline-phosphatase-conjugated antibodies. Mice with titers below pre-defined cutoff value (sum of average absorbance + 2x the standard deviation in sera from naive mice) were removed from study, and remaining mice were assigned to groups according to titers to ensure each group has similar average IgE.[000272] Intramuscular (IM) immunotherapy: starting on day 49 mice received 1 injection every 3 weeks, a total of 3 intramuscular injections of PBS (negative controls) or mRNA, on days 49, 70 and 92. A sham mRNA (e.g. Ova mRNA) as an additional negative control, as well as a positive control group of subcutaneous immunotherapy with aqueous whole peanut protein extract (Stallergenes Greer) were included in the study (as described in Table 4). Mice were monitored once per hour for 4 hours and twice per hour from 4-6 hrs and then hourly for 7-8 hrs for anaphylaxis symptoms after each dose. Symptoms were scored on the 0-5 point scoring scale.[000273] Oral peanut challenge: starting on day 98, mice were fasted for 5-6 hours and then challenged by oral gavage (IG) with 25 mg peanut protein extract (prepared in house) in 200 pl volume, on days 98, 100, 102, 105, 107, 109, 112. Challenges were repeated on alternating days over a 2-week period and outcomes were reported for theP-639811-PC7th which typically results in the most severe reactions. Core body temperature was rectally monitored prior to challenge and at 15 minute intervals for at least 90 minutes, and severity of anaphylactic symptoms were scored using the common index (0, no symptoms; 1, prolonged rubbing and scratching around the nose, eyes or head; 2, puffiness around the eyes or mouth, piloerection, and / or decreased activity with increased respiratory rate; 3, labored respiration, wheezing, stridor, and / or cyanosis around the mouth and tail; 4, tremor, convulsion, no activity after prodding and / or moribund; 5, death).[000274] Serum mCPTl: Approximately 45-60 minutes after challenge, blood was collected by saphenous phlebotomy and serum was separated by centrifugation. Mast cell protease-1 (MCPT-1) release into serum was analyzed using a mouse MCPT-1 ELISA kit (Invitrogen).[000275] Cytokine release assay: Mice were euthanized by isoflurane overdose (VetOne). Spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes (mLN) were dissected, manually disrupted and filtered through 70um cell strainers (Fisher Scientific) to generate single-cell suspensions. Cells were depleted of red blood cells ACK lysing buffer (Gibco) and resuspended in cell culture media: DMEM (HyClone), 5% FBS (Gemini), 2mM L-glutamine (HyClone), ImM sodium pyruvate (Sigma), 10 mM MOPS (Sigma), 50 uM 2- mercaptoethanol (Gibco), 100 IU penicillin + 100 pg / ml streptomycin (Gibco). Cells were plated at 8xl05per well in 200 pl in flat bottom 96 well plates and incubated (37°C, 5% CO2) for 72 hours with either media alone (unstimulated), 200 pg / ml PE (Stallergenes), 100 pg / ml Ara h 1 or 100 pg / ml Ara h 2. Cell culture supernatants were analyzed for concentration of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 by Luminex multiplex analysis following manufacturer's instructions (Millipore- Milliplex). Data was presented as ([cytokine] from stimulated cells) - ([cytokine] from non-stimulated cells).[000276] The following ELISA test was utilized for both tested Studies.[000277] ELISA: Antigen-specific IgE, IgGl and lgG2a titers were determined and compared by an established ELISA assay. Maxisorp 96-well plates (Thermofisher scientific) were coated overnight at 4°C with lOOpI of protein at 2pg / ml in PBS. All subsequent stepsP-639811-PC were carried out at RT with PBST washes (PBS+0.05% Tween 20) between steps. Titration curves were created for each serum or plasma sample by diluting xlO and then serially x2.1 (for IgE detection) or x25 and then serially x2.5 (for IgG). Plates were blocked with PBST+2% BSA (Sigma) for 2 hours, incubated with titrated samples or without (blanks) for 2 hours, and then incubated with 1:5,000 HRP-Anti-mouse IgE or 1:20,000 HRP-Anti- mouse IgG for 1 hour. Finally, plates were incubated with lOOpI 1-Step Ultra TMB (Thermofisher) until color developed and lOOpI H2SO4 0.5M was added to stop the reaction. Optical density at 450nm was recorded using the Synergy LX microplate spectrophotometer (Biotek, Vermont), OD of blank wells (without sample), subtracted and area under curve calculated.[000278] Table 1: Sequences of mRNA moleculesP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PCP-639811-PC[000279] The experiments below were carried out to examine the immunotherapeutic potential and efficacy in protection from a peanut allergen challenge of an mRNA molecule according to an embodiment of the invention.[000280] The immunotherapeutic potential was determined by evaluating the B-cell response measured as induction of IgG antibodies against the encoded proteins: DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2 (SEQ ID NOs: 1 and 3, respectively).[000281] The efficacy of the mRNA molecule according to an embodiment of the invention was examined by in-vivo protection from peanut protein challenge in peanut sensitized mice, measured as: (1) reduction in anaphylactic symptoms score (scored on a 0-5 point scoring scale), (2) prevention of hypothermic reaction (measured as core body temperature drop) and (3) inhibition of mast cell protease-1 (MCPT-1) secretion. In addition, the beneficial effect of an mRNA molecule was examined in-vitro by measuring the T-cell cytokine response following stimulation of splenocytes and MLN cells with peanut proteins (whole peanut extract, Ara h 1 and Ara h 2). The secretion levels of I FNy, IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, and IL-13 were assessed by Luminex multiplex analysis following manufacturer's instructions (Millipore- Milliplex).Example 2 - Allergy immunotherapeutic potential of various mRNA molecules and various LNP formulations[000282] Aim-, identify an mRNA molecule which advantageously induces a relatively high B-cell response measured as an indication of IgG antibodies generated against the encoded proteins- DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2. For this purpose, naive mice were treated as elaborated above under Murine allergy immunotherapeutic potential study.[000283] A combination of two separate mRNA molecules was used (see Table 1): the first molecule encodes a DE Ara h 1 (SEQ ID NO: 1); and the second molecule encodes a DE Ara h 2 protein (SEQ ID NO: 3). The two mRNA molecules were co-encapsulated in an LNP particle comprising ALC-0315™ (Acuitas Therapeutics) ([(4- hydroxybutyl)azanediyl]di(hexane-6,l-diyl) bis(2-hexyldeca noate)), ALC-0159 (Methoxypolyethyleneglycoloxy(2000)-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide), cholesterol, andP-639811-PCDSPC (l,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) in the molar ratio 47.5 : 1.8 : 40.7 : 10. Different LNP formulations, e.g., PBS with 10% Sucrose, were tested on their effect on the allergy immunotherapeutic potential. The two mRNA molecules were used in a 1:1 weight ratio.[000284] Each mRNA molecule was composed of (i) a 5'-cap structure; (ii) a 5' UTR; (iii) a signal peptide; (iv) an open reading frame (ORF) encoding the variant polypeptide and consisting of nucleotides including Nl-methyl-pseudouridine modifications (100% of the uridine nucleotide were replaced with Nl-methyl-pseudouridine); (v) a 3' UTR; and (vi) a poly-A region. The 5' UTR comprised a 'flank sequence', e.g., added for efficient in vitro transcription (IVT) of template DNA to mRNA.[000285] The signal peptide used in all mRNA molecules was the osteonectin signal peptide [Homo sapiens]; GenBank: AAA60993.1 (AA SEQ ID NO: 5). The signal peptide nucleic acid used in the molecule encoding was either SEQ ID NO: 6 or SEQ ID NO: 7.[000286] The 5' UTR, 3' UTR sequences as combined in the tested molecules were as elaborated in Table 2 below.[000287] Table 2: Immunotherapeutic potential Study DesignP-639811-PC* ALC-0315 (formulation 1) and ALC-0315 (formulation 2) have a storage temperature of -20°C, and - 80°C, respectively.[000288] Observations and Measures: Animal health checks were carried out at least once daily, blood collection was carried out; 100 pl, on days 0, 29, 43, 61, 82, then every 3-4 weeks only for the groups treated with the selected candidates, the serum was purified throughout the study according to the details specified in Table 3 below. The collected sera were stored at -80°C and evaluated at the end of the study for mouse IgG ELISA analysis.[000289] Animals were euthanized by isoflurane overdose, to effect, followed by thoracotomy. A maximum obtainable volume of whole blood was collected via cardiac stick and processed into a maximum obtainable volume of serum (spun at 10,000g for 10 minutes at room temperature). The serum was stored in 2 separate aliquots at nominally -70°C until analysis. Sample collection procedure is specified in Table 4 below.[000290] Table 3: Interim Sample Collection[000291] Outcome Measures: A successful immunotherapeutic composition was considered a composition that induces a relatively high IgG response against the proteins encoded by the molecule, DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2, measured by antigen-specific IgG ELISA. These antibodies had the potential to bind the natural allergens, thus, reduced ability to induce allergic reactions.[000292] Results:P-639811-PC[000293] IgGl and lgG2a antibody titers against DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2 were assessed by ELISA on days 29-61, for selecting the best formulation (Table 2). IM administration of different DE-Ara h 1+DE-Ara h 2 mRNA formulations to naive mice induced an anti-DE-Ara h 2 IgGl response (Figure 3A), an anti-DE-Ara h 2 lgG2a response (Figure 3B), anti-DE-Ara h 1 IgGl response (Figure 3C), and an anti-DE-Ara h 1 lgG2a response (Figure 3D). Generally, anti-DE-Ara h 2 titers were lower compared to anti-DE- Ara h 1 titers. The formulation of group E (ALC-0315 (formulation 2) with mRNA encoding DE Ara h 1 HBB-DE Arahl-HBB (SEQ ID NO: 17) and mRNA encoding DE Ara h 2 HBB-DE Arah2-HBB (SEQ ID NO: 18) elicited the most rapid response to DE-Ara h 2 and was unique in achieving in 100% of mice, a positive IgG response to DE-Ara h 2. Furthermore, this formulation yielded the highest mean DE-Ara h 2 antibody titers for both IgGl and lgG2a. [000294] The antibody kinetics of group E (ALC-0315 (formulation 2) with mRNA encoding DE Ara h 1 HBB-DE Arahl-HBB (SEQ ID NO: 17) and mRNA encoding DE Ara h 2 HBB-DE Arah2-HBB (SEQ ID NO: 18)) was monitored on days 29-208. IM administration of different DE-Ara h 1+DE-Ara h 2 mRNAs to naive mice induced robust and durable anti- DE-Ara h 1 and anti-DE-Ara h 2 IgGl responses (Figure 3E) and robust and durable anti- DE-Ara h 1 and anti-DE-Ara h 2 lgG2a responses (Figure 3F).Example 3 - Allergy immunotherapeutic efficacy of mRNA molecules[000295] Aim-, evaluate the immunotherapeutic efficacy of mRNA molecules using a peanut allergy mouse model. For this purpose, Murine allergy model intramuscular (IM) immunotherapy efficacy study is carried out.[000296] Experimental design: peanut sensitized mice are treated with the mRNA molecules by 3 i.m. injections and efficacy is evaluated by (1) reduction in anaphylactic symptoms score (2) preventions of hypothermic reaction (measured as core body temperature drop), (3) inhibition of mast cell protease-1 (MCPT-1) secretion and (4) T-cell cytokine response following stimulation with peanut proteins. See study design in Table 4 and schematic timeline in Figure 1.P-639811-PC[000297] Sensitization Phase: Groups are dosed with sensitization solution (PBS with 2 mg peanut extract +10 pg cholera toxin) on Days 0,1,2, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35. Unsensitized sham treatment group, is given a gavage of PBS with 2 mg peanut extract, excluding cholera toxin.[000298] Mice are bled after the final sensitization, on day 39, and sera is analyzed for peanut specific IgE. Mice are distributed based upon the level of peanut-specific IgE into groups (shown in Table 4), to ensure that all mice that proceed in the study are sufficiently sensitized and groups have similar antibody titers.[000299] Treatment: On Day 49, 70 and 92, mice are dosed with 40 pl Treatment solution (See Table 4 below). All dosing is performed via injection. Anaphylaxis symptoms are evaluated after each dose. Symptoms are scored on the 0-5 point scoring scale.[000300] The mRNA composition used is as elaborated in Example 2.[000301] Challenge Phase: Mice are challenged 7 times by an oral gavage (i.g.) of 20 mg in-house prepared peanut extract (days 98, 100, 102, 105, 107, 109, 112). Symptoms and temperatures are monitored at the final (7th) oral challenge.[000302] Table 4: Allergy immunotherapeutic efficacy study DesignP-639811-PC[000303] Observations and Measures: Animal health checks are carried out at least once daily as a cage-side health check. Clinical observations are performed for all animals on Day 1 prior to Sensitization and once weekly thereafter including prior to euthanasia. Clinical observations are performed more often if abnormal clinical signs are exhibited by animals in the study.[000304] Anaphylaxis Scoring: clinical scoring is performed on all animals following the 7th oral peanut challenge. The following scoring system is used:0: No clinical symptoms1: Itching around the mouth, nose and / or eyes2: Edema / puffiness around eyes and / or mouth, Decreased activity, hunched / scruffy 3: Periods of motionless for > 1 min, lying prone. Labored breathing, wheeze / stridor 4: No responses to whisker stimuli, reduced or no response to prodding5: T remor, convulsion, or death[000305] Body Weights: Body weights are recorded following sensitization, beginning on Day 48, prior to administration of the test material and once a week thereafter, including prior to euthanasia. Body weights are rounded to the nearest 0.1g.[000306] Core Body temperature: Core body temperature (measurement via a rectal probe) are recorded on Day 98 before oral challenge and on 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 minutes (±10% deviation) after challenge, or until body temperatures have returned to at least 36°C.[000307] Measurement of mast cell protease-1. Mice are bled at approximately 60 minutes following the 7th challenge for mast cell protease-1 (MCPT-1) quantification. Approximately 30 pl of whole blood is collected. In the event that a mouse has a bodyP-639811-PC temperature lower than 36°C, bleeding occurs once the body temperature returns to at least 36°C. Concentration of MCPT-1 in the serum is measured by the O'Konek lab by ELISA.[000308] Interim Blood Collection: ~100uL of whole blood is collected from each animal via the saphenous vein following the last sensitization (Day 39) and one day prior to each i.m. immunotherapy dose , on Days 48, 69 and 91. Blood samples are processed into a maximum obtainable volume serum (spun at 10,000g for 10 minutes at room temperature). Samples are stored at nominally -70°C until analysis at the completion of the study.[000309] Terminal Procedures[000310] Euthanasia and Blood and Tissue Collection: Mice are sacrificed 3 days after the final challenge (Day 115). All the animals are euthanized by isoflurane overdose, to effect, followed by thoracotomy, and the following tissues are collected for analyses: [000311] A maximum obtainable volume of whole blood is collected via terminal cardiac puncture and processed into a maximum obtainable volume of serum (spun at 10,000g for 10 minutes at room temperature).[000312] Spleens and mesenteric lymph nodes (mLN) are harvested. Single cell suspensions are prepared and plated at 800,000 cells per well in flat bottom 96 well plates and stimulated in duplicate with the following: a) media (unstimulated control) b) peanut extract (200 pg / ml) c) Natural Ara h 2 (100 pg / ml) d) Natural Ara h 1 (100 pg / ml)[000313] Splenocytes are stimulated with all 3 conditions. Cell number may be limiting for lymph node cultures. In the event that there are not enough cells from lymph nodes, priority are given to unstimulated and PE stimulation conditions, with Ara h 2 and Ara h 1 stimulations performed if there are sufficient cells.[000314] Cell culture supernatants are harvested after 72 hours. Cytokines (IFNy, IL- 4, IL-5, IL-10, IL-13) are measured by Luminex multiplex assay in selected samples.P-639811-PC[000315] Outcome Measures: A successful immunotherapeutic composition is considered a composition that (1) reduces anaphylactic symptoms (2) prevents hypothermic reaction (3) inhibits mast cell protease-1 (MCPT-1) secretion; and (4) skews the T-cell cytokine response following stimulation with peanut proteins away from Th2; all as compared to sensitized mice treated with PBS (sensitized sham).Example 4 -Human Protocols[000316] A Phase l / 2a, first-in-human, open-label, multicenter study is conducted in adult participants (ages 18-55, inclusive) with peanut allergy in four sequential cohorts evaluating two dose levels and two dose intervals.[000317] The study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of repeated administration (3 doses) of a 1:1 (w:w) mixture of mRNA encoding two modified peanut proteins, DE-Ara h 1 and DE-Ara h 2 (SEQ ID NO: 17 and SEQ ID NO: 18). These modified peanut proteins are recombinant engineered versions of the two major natural peanut allergens Ara h 1 and Ara h 2 proteins, respectively, each with reduced ability to bind human allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in the serum of peanut allergic individuals. Participants are administered in either low dose (30 pg) or high dose (100 pg) at Q4W or Q12W. The exploration of both 4 and 12 weeks between doses is to evaluate whether longer time between doses permits additional maturation of high affinity IgG from germinal center B cells capable of binding to peanut allergens with potential to sterically hinder binding of peanut antigens to participant's IgE.[000318] The study is comprised of a screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period. Throughout the study, participants are evaluated every 4 weeks or every 12 weeks.[000319] Participants are assigned sequentially to one of the four treatment cohorts, A, B, C or D, as shown in Table 5. Cohorts A and C are dosed every 4 weeks (Q4W), on Day 1, Week 4 and week 8. In Cohorts B and D participants are dosed every 12 weeks (Q12W) on Day 1, Week 12 and Week 24.[000320] Table 5: Treatment Cohorts by Dose RegimenP-639811-PCAbbreviations: IM, intramuscular; Q4W, every 4 weeks; Q12W, every 12 weeks; TBD, to be determined.[000321] Assessments:[000322] Assessments include Double Blind placebo controlled food challenge(DBPCFC). The DBPCFC is performed by feeding gradually increasing amounts of a suspect allergenic food (in this case, peanuts, presented as defatted peanut flour) mixed in a vehicle (matrix) food under physician observation. For this study, a uniform approach to food challenge, in accordance with the PRACTALL consensus guidelines for DBPCFC, is used at all investigational sites.
