Boiled Peanut Oral Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Peanut Allergy: a Pilot Study
Peanut allergy is increasingly common, especially in countries such as UK and Australia. There is currently no accepted routine clinical therapy to cure peanut allergy. Recently studies have looked at desensitising people with peanut allergy by giving them small daily doses of roasted peanut. Although this therapy works for some people, its effects are not generally long lasting and it is associated with many side effects during protocol, resulting in a significant rate of drop-outs. Pilot data suggests that boiled peanut is less immunogenic than roasted peanut, and may therefore provide a safer way of inducing desensitisation in patients...

Budesonide Versus Fluticasone for Treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis
Purpose: To determine whether oral viscous budesonide (OVB) or fluticasone metered dose inhaler (MDI) most effectively treats EoE by improving histologic findings and symptoms, which medication provides a more durable treatment response, and whether biomarkers can predict treatment response. Participants: A total of up to 200 16-80 year old patients with a new diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who are referred for upper endoscopy will be consented with a target of 122 randomized. Procedures: This will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, clinical trial comparing OVB to fluticasone MDI for treatment of...

Can Vitamin D Supplementation in Infants Prevent Food Allergy in the First Year of Life? The VITALITY Trial
There is an urgent need to prevent the onset and progression of food allergy in our population. Evidence demonstrates that food allergy and atopic eczema represent the earliest manifestations of the atopic march with 50% of infants with food allergy predicted to develop respiratory allergic diseases later in life. We report that Australia has the highest prevalence of IgE-mediated food allergy in the world, with 10% of infants having challenge-proven food allergy in Melbourne. There has been a 5-fold increase in hospital admissions for life-threatening anaphylaxis. These changes are most pronounced in children less than 5 years, suggesting...

Cause of Unexplained Anaphylaxis
This study will explore the possible cause of unexplained, or idiopathic, anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is a rapid, life-threatening, severe reaction that occurs suddenly after contact with an allergy-causing substance, usually a particular food, drug or stinging insect. The allergen triggers mast cells to release several substances, including histamine. Histamine is responsible for many of the symptoms that may occur, such as flushing, hives, swelling of the palms and soles or tongue and vocal cords, nasal congestion, itching and tearing of the eyes, shortness of breath and wheezing, stomach pain, vomiting, low blood pressure, loss of ...

CEGIR 7807: Validation of Online Cohort of EGID Patients Enrolled in RDCRN CEGIR Contact Registry
The purpose of this study is to validate the online cohort of EGID patients enrolled in the RDCRN CEGIR CR. In order to achieve this objective, the investigators will determine the agreement between self-reported EGID information by the enrollees and their physician's report and medical records. All participants enrolled in the RDCRN CEGIR CR with EGIDs will be invited via email to participate in this study.

Changes in Esophageal Distensibility With Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Esophageal Eosinophilia: A Pilot Study
This pilot study will explore whether treatment of eosinophilic inflammation in the esophagus is associated with an improved distensibility of the esophagus. Furthermore, previous studies of the esophagus using EndoFlip only measured distensibility of the distal esophagus, specifically the distal esophagus and esophagogastric junction. Eosinophilia in EoE has been demonstrated to affect both upper, middle and lower esophagus. The aim is to measure distensibility both proximal and distal, before and after treatment.

Characteristics of Eosinophilic Gastritis, Enteritis, and Colitis in a Multi-Site Cohort
The purpose of this study is to investigate features of patients with Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGIDs) other than Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) alone, including Eosinophilic Gastritis (EG), Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis (EGE), and Eosinophilic Colitis (EC).
