Systems Biology of Early Atopy
The goal of this study is to establish a birth cohort that collects prenatal and early life biosamples and environmental samples and rigorously phenotypes young children for food allergy and Atopic Dermatitis (AD) to identify prenatal and early life markers of high risk for food allergy and AD, as well as biological pathways (endotypes) that result in these conditions. Primary Objectives: - To study the role and interrelationships of established and novel clinical, environmental, biological, and genetic prenatal and early-life factors in the development of allergic diseases through age 3 years, with an emphasis on atopic dermatitis and food allergy - ...

Targeted Elimination Diet in EoE Patients Following Identification of Trigger Nutrients Using Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy
Using confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE), gastrointestinal allergic reactions to certain foods in the duodenum will be evaluated on a cellular level. After that, a personalized exclusion diet will be followed based on the CLE results for 6 weeks, sham-controlled, in a cross-over fashion. Gastroscopy with esophageal biopsies will be repeated after each diet.

Testing Docetaxel-Cetuximab or the Addition of an Immunotherapy Drug, Atezolizumab, to the Usual Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy in High-Risk Head and Neck Cancer
This phase II/III trial studies how well radiation therapy works when given together with cisplatin, docetaxel, cetuximab, and/or atezolizumab after surgery in treating patients with high-risk stage III-IV head and neck cancer the begins in the thin, flat cells (squamous cell). Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Cetuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability...

Testing the Addition of an Anti-cancer Drug, Ipatasertib, to the Usual Immunotherapy Treatment (Pembrolizumab) in Patients With Recurrent or Metastatic Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck
This phase II trial compares the effect of adding ipatasertib to pembrolizumab (standard immunotherapy) vs. pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck that has come back (recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Ipatasertib is in a class of medications called protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving ipatasertib in...

Testing What Happens When an Immunotherapy Drug (Pembrolizumab) is Given by Itself Compared to the Usual Treatment of Chemotherapy With Radiation After Surgery for Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone compared to the usual approach (chemotherapy [cisplatin and carboplatin] plus radiation therapy) after surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back (recurrent) or patients with a second head and neck cancer that is not from metastasis (primary). Radiation therapy uses high energy radiation or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Carboplatin is also in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds....

The Clinical Impact of the Basophil Activation Test to Diagnose Food Allergy
The BAT Impact study is a prospective multicentre study in the UK using a biomarker-led study design to compare the incidence of adverse events (defined as allergic reactions during oral food challenges) in a randomized-controlled trial. Patients will either follow the standard-of-care (i.e. an oral food challenge in case of equivocal SPT/sIgE) or follow a basophil activation test (BAT)/mast cell activation test (MAT)-based strategy, i.e. patients with a positive BAT or MAT are dispensed of an oral food challenge (OFC) and patients with a negative BAT/MAT undergo an OFC.

The Potential Role of Compounds Derived From Ultra-processed Foods in Pathogenesis of Eosinophilic Esophagitis
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic antigen-mediated inflammatory disease of the esophagus that affects both children and adults. The incidence and prevalence of EoE is rapidly increasing in Western countries with an estimated incidence of 6.6 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI, 3-11.7) in children and 7.7 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI, 1.8-17.8) in adults. Clinically, it is characterized by various symptoms related to esophageal dysfunction, including vomiting, regurgitation, feeding difficulties, epigastric heartburn, dysphagia, or food bolus impaction, and may cause growth retardation. Diagnosis is made on the basis of clinical symptoms and histological evidence of...

The Role of Bifidobacterium Intervention in Food Allergic Infants
Infant food protein allergy is the most common allergic disease in children, which can lead to infantile-specific dermatitis, intestinal inflammation, and so on. Dietary avoidance is a common strategy for food protein allergy in infants and young children. However, the hidden etiology of food protein allergy or multiple food allergies often leads to poor efficacy. The aim of this study is to observe the clinical effectiveness of Bifidobacterium intervention on food allergy.

The UFIM (Ultraprocessed Foods In Breast Milk) Project
In last decades, a change in dietary habits has been observed in industrialized countries characterized by a drastic increase in the consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF, Ultra-Processed Foods). As defined by the NOVA classification, UPFs are industrial formulations of food substances added with colourings, flavourings, emulsifiers, thickeners and other additives. Among the main compounds of UPFs are the advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Increasing evidence suggests an association between dietary exposure to AGEs and the development of chronic non-communicable diseases, such as obesity and allergies, in the general population, through increased oxidative stress and...
