Effect of Mediterranean Diet During Pregnancy on Gut Microbiota and on the Epigenetics
Food allergies (AA) are adverse reactions to food. Over the last decade, the AA scenario has changed profoundly. In many countries, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence, persistence and severity of AAs and a consequent increase in the socio-economic impact associated with these conditions. For these reasons, there is a strong need to develop effective strategies to prevent these conditions. To date, the AA etiopathogenesis is not yet fully defined. Genetic factors may predispose certain subjects to the development of AA, but these alone can not explain the change observed in the AA scenario over the last few years, ...

Effects of Swallowed Steroids on Bone Density and Growth in Pediatric Eosinophilic Esophagitis
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is characterized by allergy-driven inflammation of the esophagus leading to a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms and increased healthcare utilization. While considered a rare disease, EoE is rapidly increasing in prevalence in the United States. Treatment options are limited and include dietary modifications with the elimination of suspected food triggers or pharmacological options including proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and swallowed corticosteroids. Compliance to strict elimination diets is difficult thus many patients elect to use swallowed corticosteroids. Because nearly half of all EoE patients...

Efficacy and Safety APT-1011 in Subjects With Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) (FLUTE-2)
This is a 2-part randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of APT-1011 in adults and adolescents (≥12 years) with EoE. Part A will evaluate the efficacy and safety of APT-1011 3 mg administered HS for the induction of response to treatment (histologic and symptomatic) over 12 weeks. Part B will evaluate histological relapse-free status in patients re-randomized to continue APT-1011 or placebo (active treatment withdrawal) until Week 52.

Efficacy and Safety of Oral Immunotherapy With GcMAF in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19 Pneumonia
As of August 16, 2020, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been responsible for more than 21 294 000 infections and about 760 000 deaths worldwide. Accumulating evidence suggests that patients with severe acute COVID-19 pneumonia have a cytokine storm syndrome, or unbalanced hyper-inflammatory response. It is now well known that GcMAF plays a crucial role in immune system regulation as a primary defense against infections. Thus, this multifunctional protein, released into the blood stream, acts as a systemic immune modulator without pro-inflammatory activities. In an animal study, IL-6 level was shown...

Efficacy of the "Milk Ladder" Intervention in the Development of Tolerance and the Recognition of B Cell Epitopes in Babies Who Are Allergic to Cow's Milk Proteins
Food allergies have become a relevant health problem in westernized societies, particularly, with children. Cow's milk (CM), along with hen's eggs, are the most common foods eliciting allergic reactions in children under 4 years of age. The main objective of this intervention study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the intervention known as "The Milk Ladder" in the development of tolerance by children with CM allergies. This will be compared to an historical cohort (CoALE), which investigated the natural history of this allergy. Additionally, the ability of informative epitopes will be evaluated for their potential to predict...

Efficiency And Tolerance Of Hazelnut Oral Immunotherapy Protocol In Hazelnut Allergic Children
Prevalence of food allergy in the world has been inscreasing in recent years. Among nut allergy, hazelnut allergy is the most widespread in Europe and particularly in France. The current treatment for hazelnut allergy is based on eviction and wearing of an emergency kit with adrenaline auto-injector pens, to be used in the event of severe anaphylactic reaction. Oral immunotherapy (OIT) is a treatment that is now increasingly being offered as an alternatice to eviction. There are few published data concerning hazelnut OIT in Europe, where its consumption is nevertheless very high. The main objective of our study is to evaluate the...

Egg Allergy Oral Desensitization
This study evaluates whether tolerance to eggs can be induced in patients through a process of oral immunotherapy. Participants will be randomized into groups receiving oral immunotherapy and a control group that will receive no intervention

EoE Food Desensitization
This is a single-center, prospective, pilot clinical trial in which children ages 3-17 years with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who have a known food that triggers EoE flares receive oral desensitization with that specific food antigen, followed by reintroduction of that food into the diet. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of oral desensitization in children with EoE so that, if determined to be safe, can be repeated on a larger scale to determine efficacy.

EoE RCT Fluticasone and Omeprazole vs Fluticasone Alone
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy with omeprazole and swallowed fluticasone vs fluticasone therapy and placebo in the treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) in children and adults. This study will be a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome measured will be histologic assessment of esophageal tissue biopsies measuring number of eosinophils per high power field (eos/hpf). Secondary outcomes will be endoscopic findings and symptomatic changes following therapy using validated endoscopic scoring measures and participant surveys, respectively.
