Summary

"This trial is testing the safety of a new drug called VTP-1000 for adults with celiac disease. Participants will receive different doses of VTP-1000 or a placebo to see how

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with celiac disease who have a specific genetic marker (HLA-DQ2.5), confirmed diagnosis through tests and biopsy, are on a controlled gluten-free diet, and not pregnant or breastfeeding. They should also have low levels of certain antibodies related to celiac disease.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing VTP-1000's safety and how well it's tolerated in different doses compared to a placebo. It includes single dose tests followed by multiple doses where participants will eat gluten to see if the drug reduces their immune response.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at various organ systems as monitored by adverse events reporting, changes in blood test results indicating an immune response, or physical symptoms noted during exams after taking VTP-1000.
