Clinical Versus Home Introduction of Milk in Children with Non-IgE-mediated Cow's Milk Allergy
There are a lot of parents who believe that their child may not tolerate cow's milk because they develop symptoms such as redness of the skin or they may vomit. It is not always easy to find out if these infants should indeed avoid drinking cow's milk or that the symptoms are caused by something else, for instance because they have a viral illness. The goal of the investigators is to find out if cow's milk should be introduced in the hospital or if it can also be advised to perform the introduction at home to determine if an infant can drink cow's milk without developing symptoms. Half of the participants will drink cow's milk in the hospital. This test is performed on two...

Combining Immunotherapy Salvage Surgery & IORT Tx Persistent/Recurrent Head & Neck Cancer
This phase I trial is to find out the possible side effects of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that remains despite treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery may kill more tumor cells.

Combining Radiation Therapy With Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
This phase III trial compares pembrolizumab with radiation therapy to pembrolizumab without radiation therapy (standard therapy) given after pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pembrolizumab is a type of immunotherapy that stimulates the body's immune system to fight cancer cells. Pembrolizumab targets and blocks a protein called PD-1 on the surface of certain immune cells called T-cells. Blocking PD-1 triggers the T-cells to find and kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high-powered rays to kill...

Comparison of Skin Prick Testing, Extract-specific IgE Antibody Testing and Component Resolved Diagnosis in Diagnosing of Legume Allergy
The study is aimed at improving the diagnosis of food allergy, specifically allergy to commonly consumed legumes such as peas, lentils, chickpeas or green beans. Patients suspected of allergy to these legumes will be examined using traditional methods of IgE-mediated allergy diagnosing (skin prick test, testing for specific IgE antibodies against food extract), but also by testing for specific IgE antibodies against relevant allergenic molecules of these legumes. The results of performed tests will be compared with the result of the oral food challenge, which is considered to be the gold standard of food allergy diagnosis.

Data and Sample Collection Study to Elucidate the Mechanisms of Eosinophilic Disorders
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms underlying eosinophil growth, survival, migration, and function and to investigate and further characterize the pathophysiology of, clinical manifestations of, and spectrum of disease severity of eosinophilic inflammation in humans.

De-Escalation Postoperative Radiotherapy for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma With pCR/MPR.
The prognosis of locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC ) is poor, and there are still many problems to be solved in the current treatment paradigm. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy can significantly improve the pCR and MPR rates in patients with locally advanced OSCC. For patients who achieve pCR and MPR after neoadjuvant therapy and surgery, it is still hotly debated regarding whether to implement postoperative de-escalation radiotherapy. Neoadjuvant therapy is an ideal predictor of radiosensitivity. In theory, neoadjuvant therapy can eliminate microscopic lesions, thereby reducing the dose and volume of irradiation. Continuous hyperfractionated...

Deployment o the Multidisciplinary Prospective Cohort Imminent
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) most often affect young patients and have high impact on morbidity and mortality with a significant alteration in the quality of life of patients with professional, social and emotional repercussions. Beyond this burden, IMIDs share many common pathophysiological mechanisms and treatments, known as "targeted therapies". Despite progress in this field, much remains to be done in clinical, therapeutic and fundamental research to address the efficacy, resistance and side-effects of treatment. These similarities between IMIDs have led the FHU IMMINeNT to propose the creation of a prospective, multidisciplinary clinical-biological...

Determine Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) Standards for Cow's Milk and Egg in Different Populations of Allergic and Non-allergic Children
The study objectives are : Determine standards of plasma levels of casein-specific immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) and egg-specific immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) as a function of age, in non-allergic children, in allergic children, and in cured former allergic patients. Analyze the plasma IgG4 / IgE ratio, according to the result of the oral provocation test (tolerance versus allergy) and, in the event of a reaction, according to the reactogenic dose (dose which caused the reaction).Determine whether analysis of the plasma metabolome can identify children with a cured allergy to cow's milk protein or to egg from those with a persistent allergy.
