IBS Skin Patch Test Food Allergy Study
Participants with IBS are skin patch tested (no needles) to 80 different foods and food additives, compounded for patch testing, in search of food allergies. The testing requires 3 office visits within a 4 or 5 day period. The patches are taped to the back at Visit #. At Visit #2 48 hours later, the patches are removed from the skin and the outside border of each patch is marked with a felt tip marker. At Visit #3 (final visit) 1 or 2 days later, the patch test reading is performed by the doctor-investigator. An allergy is identified as a small red mark where the food was in contact with the skin for 48 hours. Those participants found to have food allergies are then placed on an...

Immune Biomarker Study for Head and Neck Cancer
The aim of this prospective non-interventional multi-center trial is to study the prognostic value of intratumoral and systemic immune biomarkers in newly diagnosed non-metastatic head and neck cancer. Furthermore, the local immunological processes in the tumor will be correlated with the systemic immune status determined in the peripheral blood to identify prognostic immune signatures. In addition, tumor organoids will be generated ex vivo for functional biological analyses. The main objective is to create a prognostic score determined by clusters based on tumor immunologic criteria.

Immune-supportive Diet and Gut Permeability in Allergic Children
Peanut and nut allergy can be life threatening. Some patients have very low threshold levels (i.e. the amounts of peanut and nuts to which the patients react), others react to higher doses. The reasons for these differences in threshold are not well understood. Patients with peanut and nut allergy often suffer from other allergic diseases (atopic dermatitis, hay fever and asthma). A disturbed gut microbiota composition and an increased gut permeability may explain the development of allergic disease. We hypothesize that increased gut permeability is related to low threshold levels to peanuts or nuts. In addition, as it is known that nutrition can influence our gut permeability, we...

Immunoglobulin G4 and Immunoglobulin E Antibodies in a Population With Adverse Reactions to Foodstuffs-related Symptoms
The aim of this study is to analyze a population with symptoms associated with adverse reactions to foodstuffs (ARFS). To determine the levels of food-specific immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) and immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody reactions (AbR).

Immunologic Basis of Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome
This is a phase I multicenter clinical trial that aims to find the optimal dose for conducting a novel low-dose, multi-day oral food challenge (OFC) protocol for diagnosing food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). Individuals ages 1-60 years with a history of suspected or confirmed FPIES will be eligible for enrollment. Recruitment is expected to occur over 3 years.
