Food allergies in children
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at a type of food allergy that is not caused by Immunoglobulin E (IgE), a protein involved in many allergic reactions. The goal is to better understand these non-IgE food allergies in children and how they affect them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a child between 0 and 14 years old.
- You have a history of symptoms that suggest a food allergy.
- You do not have any long-term (chronic) diseases, such as immune system problems, digestive issues like celiac disease, or other chronic conditions.
- You have not taken certain medicines (like steroids, antibiotics, or other immune-affecting drugs) in the last 4 months.
- You have no other serious conditions that affect your overall health.
- This study is only for children, not for adults.

This study looks at how the immune system works in people with Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES). It aims to learn more about this condition to improve future diagnosis and treatment.
This study looks at how certain chemicals from ultra-processed foods (like packaged snacks and sodas) might trigger eosinophilic esophagitis, a food allergy condition. It will compare people with the disease to healthy volunteers of the same age and sex.
This study is observing children with food allergies who are willing to do an oral food challenge (eating the allergen in a safe clinic setting). It helps doctors learn more about how allergies affect children.
This study follows children (from birth to age 17) who have been diagnosed with acute food protein–induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). Doctors want to better understand this condition after a suspected reaction to food, using either symptom-based diagnosis or a supervised food challenge when needed.
This study looks for the biological reasons behind food allergies by collecting a small amount of blood. It may help scientists better understand different types of food allergy and eventually improve diagnosis or treatments.
This study looks at how quickly children with possible egg and/or milk allergy are correctly diagnosed, and how follow-up checks affect their nutrition and growth. It may help you understand whether timely diagnosis and good monitoring could reduce problems with eating, weight, or growth.
