Checking timing of egg and milk allergy diagnosis in children
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child is between 6 months and 12 years old
- Child has suspected or confirmed allergy to egg and/or cow’s milk
- If allergy is “suspected,” the child either reacts/not recently ate symptoms, or has allergy test signs but not been clearly sick before
- If allergy is “confirmed,” it was proven by an oral food challenge that showed a reaction
- Parent/guardian can sign the study consent form

This study compares two ways of doing oral immunotherapy (gradually eating more of the allergen) for children with cow's milk or hen's egg allergy. It aims to find which method is safer and works better.
This study watches how milk and egg allergies change naturally over time or after oral immunotherapy (OIT) in children. It helps researchers understand how the immune system adapts, aiming to improve treatment for food allergies.
This study looks at whether eating or avoiding peanuts and eggs during pregnancy can affect the baby's risk of allergies. You and your baby will be followed for a year after birth.
This study looks for blood test patterns that may predict whether a child with eczema (atopic dermatitis) is likely to have a food allergy. If you join, you may do supervised oral food challenges with a placebo and the suspected foods to see what triggers symptoms.
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 tests whether introducing common allergenic foods early and continuing them for six months can help prevent food allergies in infants. It is for babies who have not yet started these foods.
