Chompions! A Treatment Study for Childhood Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)
Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) is a disorder that affects toddlers, children, adolescents, and adults. Individuals with ARFID are not able to consume an adequate amount or variety of food to a degree that it affects their mental and/or physical health. ARFID often begins in early childhood so it is important to treat children in early in life as possible to prevent any negative consequences of poor nutrition. There are currently no treatments for young children with ARFID. The investigators have developed two different study programs and the purpose of this study is to test them out and see if they help children with ARFID and to learn more about how these study...

Clinical Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Cell Therapy in Patients With Cicatricial Conjuntivitis.
A phase IIa, open label, non controlled clinical trial to assess the feasibility and safety of allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) in the treatment of cicatricial conjunctivitis associated with Lyell's syndrome, Stevens-Johnson's syndrome and mucous membrane pemphigoid with ocular involvement

Cow's Milk Elimination for Treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis
The investigators seek to assess the efficacy of removing cow's milk from an EoE patient's diet. This will be determined by esophageal inflammation and clinical and histological response to the milk elimination treatment.

Detection of Metabolite Biomarkers for the Early Diagnosis and Prognosis of Cow's Milk Allergy in Children
In this study, fecal and urine samples will be collected from children diagnosed with : - IgE mediated cow's milk allergy, - suspected of a cow's milk allergy, but with negative diagnosis - IgE mediated food allergy other than cow's milk - healthy brothers and sisters of the first three groups A subset of patients with IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy will be asked to provide a urine and fecal sample yearly for prognostic purposes. The samples will be analyzed using a technique called metabolomics to identify biomarker candidates with diagnostic and/or prognostic potential. Additionally, microbiome analysis will be performed to map the microbiome of...

Dupilumab in Eosinophilic Gastritis
40 participants with Eosinophilic Gastritis 12-70 years of age will be randomly assigned with dupilumab or placebo subcutaneous injections every two weeks for a total of 12 weeks. Study subjects who complete the 12-week treatment phase, may continue into an open label extension study, where dupilumab will be administered every two weeks for a total of 24 weeks.

Early Allergen System Experience
Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated that early allergen introduction, feeding babies common food allergens before six months, decreases children's risk of developing a food allergy. Despite successful food allergy introduction trials showing that food allergies can be prevented, early introduction in the required amount can be challenging for parents. In some studies, less than 20% of parents introduce peanuts before their child is six months old, and few feed them regularly after introduction. Ready. Set. Food! is a direct-to-consumer product that offers a convenient supplement with a daily dose regimen that can be added to breastmilk, formula, or food to make early...

Efficacy and Safety of Tezepelumab in Patients With Eosinophilic Esophagitis
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter, phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tezepelumab administered subcutaneously (SC) using an accessorized pre-filled syringe (APFS) versus placebo in adult and adolescent patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).

Efficacy of Low-Dose Topical Steroids in Maintaining Remission of Eosinophilic Esophagitis in Children
This study evaluates the decrease in steroid dosing for patients who have achieved remission on a full dose of steroids. Once a patient is in remission they will be enrolled in this study if they choose to decrease the steroid dosing.

Esophageal String Test in Eosinophilic Esophagitis
The overall goal of this study is to develop a novel minimally invasive device, the Esophageal String Test (EST) to monitor esophageal inflammation during treatment of the rare disease Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) in a safe and efficacious manner. This study is broken down into 2 specific aims: Specific Aim 1: Identify the EoE Biomarker Panel (EBP) that will improve the sensitivity and specificity of the EST for documenting esophageal inflammation in a 1-hour time point. Specific Aim 2: Validate the ability of the EST EBP to monitor therapeutic efficacy in a 1-hour sampling time. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
