The Efficacy and Tolerability of 12-weeks Treatment With Almond and Buckwheat Based Formula in Pediatric Patients With Active EoE

Study Purpose

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, relapsing, immune-mediated esophageal disease. Clinical manifestations in infants and toddlers generally include vomiting, food refusal, choking with meals and, less commonly, failure to thrive. The management of the disease includes dietary and pharmaceutical interventions, and the goal of the treatment should ideally be both the resolution of symptoms and the normalization of the macroscopic and microscopic abnormalities. Milk is the most common food trigger identified, followed by wheat, soy, and eggs. The aim of the study is to examine the tolerability of a new plant based formula made of minimally processed almond and buckwheat and enriched with vitamins and minerals.
