24-Week Induction Study of APT-1011 in Adult Subjects With Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) (FLUTE 3)
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled induction study of APT-1011 in adults (≥18 years old) with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) followed by a single-arm, open-label extension. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of APT-1011 3 mg administered HS (hora somni, at bedtime) for the induction of response to treatment (symptomatic and histologic) over 24 weeks. The open-label extension will continue to evaluate long-term safety in subjects who consent to continue on open-label treatment with APT-1011.

Adjuvant Treatment With Abatacept to Promote Remission During Peanut Oral Immunotherapy
This is a phase 2a, multi-center, randomized and double-blind placebo-controlled trial comparing 24 weeks of abatacept versus placebo used as adjuvant to oral immunotherapy to induce remission in adolescents and adults with persistent severe peanut allergy. This is a proof-of-concept trial in which the primary outcome will be the suppression of the initial peanut specific IgE surge during OIT, which is used as a proxy outcome of peanut allergy remission. Adolescents and adults with persistent severe peanut allergy (n=14) will be randomized to either abatacept or placebo at a ratio 1:1 for a total period of 24 weeks. Peanut oral ...

Allergenicity Assessment of Green Marine Macroalga Ulva sp.
To determine the allergenic potential in humans, we will conduct a three-stage clinical trial. In the first group, 20 healthy volunteers will be involved. All volunteers will be examined by an allergy specialist before enrolment to the study. After receiving informed consent, all volunteers will undergo an allergy skin test to the study seaweed proteins as well as to common allergens. Participants with a skin test showing sensitization will be excluded. Volunteers will be fed by 5 gram of the study seaweed 2 times a week, under supervision, for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks of feeding, skin tests will be repeated. All participants, will ...

A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Probiotic and Peanut Oral Immunotherapy (PPOIT) in Inducing Tolerance in Hong Kong Children With Peanut Allergy Compared With Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) Alone and With Placebo
At present there is no cure for food allergy. People with a food allergy need to avoid the food they are allergic to in order to stay safe. However we know that accidental exposure is common. Researchers have begun to look at the effectiveness of 'oral immunotherapy' as a treatment for food allergy but results have been mixed. This study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Probiotic and Peanut Oral Immunotherapy (PPOIT) in inducing tolerance in children with peanut allergy compared with Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) alone and with Placebo. Children will take increasing doses of peanut protein and a set...

Boiled Peanut Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Peanut Allergy
Peanut allergy is the most common cause of severe allergic reactions to food. Onset is common in childhood, but in contrast to other food allergies such as cow's milk and egg, peanut allergy tends to persist into adulthood. It is associated with a significant impact on quality of life, both for the affected individual and their family. There is no current cure for peanut allergy. Oral peanut immunotherapy (OIT) using defatted, roasted peanut flour has been demonstrated to offer potential in this regard, but is associated with significant and frequent reactions and can cause life-threatening allergic symptoms. The...

Boiled Peanut Oral Immunotherapy
Prospective Phase 1 clinical trial providing proof of concept data on boiled peanut oral immunotherapy (OIT) for the treatment of peanut allergy in children. The investigators hypothesize that the proportion of subjects successfully desensitized with boiled peanut OIT is greater than the theoretical placebo rate of 20%.
