Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Cow's Milk Allergy
Additional Details

Food allergy is a reproducible specific immune response to exposure to a given food. Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is clinically abnormal reaction to cow's milk protein (CMP) via immune mechanisms triggered by milk protein (Boyce etal.,2010). According to European academy for allergy and clinical immunology (EAACI) and the world allergy organization (wao) , a hypersensitivity reaction to cow's milk involving the immune system can be called as CMPA. There is difference between CMPA and non-allergic cow's milk intolerance (e.g lactose intolerance) which occurs as a result of lactase deficiency without involvement of the immune system (Venter etal.,2013). CMPA is categorized into immunoglobulin IgE mediated , non -IgE mediated ,or mixed CMPA (Sicherer etal.,2001). 1.9% to 4.9% prevalence of CMPA among children with a peak in prevalence (2-3%) in the first year of life and prevalence of <1% in children aged >=6 years (koletzko etal.,2012).
