Pediatric Eosinophilic Esophagitis (pedEoE): Effect of Allergen Heat Denaturation on EoE Remission: a Pilot Trial
The objective of the study is to study whether the introduction of heated food products (more specifically heated hen's egg and/or cow's milk) in children with EoE would be possible without re-occurrence of the eosinophilic inflammation, while the intake of less heated products might cause disease recidive. Moreover, we would like to study whether the gradual re-introduction of less heated products after the most heated form is tolerated, could lead to tolerance induction in EoE.

Pembrolizumab and Oral Metronomic Cyclophosphamide in Patients With Chest Wall Breast Cancer
This is a Phase II single center, open-label, non-randomized study in patients with locally recurrent, inoperable, and/or metastatic inflammatory breast cancer with lymphangitic spread to the chest wall. Patients will be treated with pembrolizumab administered as an intravenous infusion at 200 mg in 21-day treatment cycles and oral cyclophosphamide (CTX) 50 mg per day in metronomic administration as a 21 days cycle Forty-six patients will be required for the study. Key inclusion criteria are PDL1 (≥1%) positive and/or tumor infiltrating lymphocyte positive (≥1%) locally advanced "chest wall" breast cancer (with or without distant metastases), who have been treated...

Phase I Trial to Evaluate VLP Peanut in Healthy and Peanut Allergic Subjects
This phase I clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VLP Peanut in healthy subjects and in subjects with peanut allergy (PA). This clinical trial will evaluate the immunotoxicity profile of VLP Peanut in healthy subjects and assess the immunotoxicity profile and the degree of reactogenicity (allergenicity) in subjects with PA. This clinical trial will also explore preliminary proof of efficacy of VLP Peanut in subjects with PA.

Quantification & Classification of Inflammatory Cells in Uveitis Using OCT
The goal of this study is to determine if it's possible to use a high resolution imaging device called optical coherence tomography (OCT) to develop an unbiased, standard method of counting and categorizing the various types of cells and proteins found in an eye condition called anterior uveitis. Anterior uveitis is a type of inflammation in the eye that can be caused by many different diseases of the body.

Randomized Controlled Trial of Slow Multiallergen Oral Immunotherapy in Young Children
The aim is to study whether a multiallergen oral immunotherapy (OIT) strategy with slow up-dosing and low treatment dose against food allergy in young children (0.5-3 years) is safe and effective, a method to cure food allergy and to prevent the development of new food allergies. Clinical randomized controlled (1:1) blinded interventional trial (RCT) with 2 intervention arms (group A and B). Among 80 children reacting at the multiallergen food challenge, 40 children will be randomized to receive OIT (oral immunotherapy) with multiallergen powder with a final dose of approximately 200 mg protein of each included food (egg, milk, soy, wheat, walnut, peanut, hazelnut, cashew,...

Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures for rare diseases. The CoRDS team works with patient advocacy groups, individuals and researchers to help in the advancement of research in over 7,000 rare diseases. The registry is free for patients to enroll and researchers to access. Visit sanfordresearch.org/CoRDS to enroll.

Repertoire and Properties of Anti-drug Antibodies Involved in Immediate Hypersensitivity in the Operating Room
Acute per-anesthetic hypersensitivity reaction (HSA-PA) is a rapidly occurring systemic reaction following injection of a drug during anesthesia (mortality between 3 and 9%). The substances responsible for these reactions in France are curare in 60% of cases, followed by antibiotics. The main mechanism mentioned is an immediate systemic hypersensitivity immune reaction mediated by IgE antibodies (anaphylaxis). NeuroMuscular Blocking Agents (NMBA; curare) relax skeletal muscles to facilitate surgeries and permit intubation, but lead to adverse reactions: (a) severe hypersensitivity reactions (anaphylaxis) thought to rely on pre-existing anti-NMBA antibodies; (b) complications...
