Testing an at-home route for tree nut allergy immunotherapy
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests how a specific form of treatment is given to people with a tree nut allergy. The goal is to find a safer, more effective way to help your body tolerate tree nuts.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed tree nut allergy and your allergy test is at or below 444 mg protein at baseline
- You can give consent (and your child can give assent if needed)
- You have NOT had a very severe tree nut reaction like anaphylaxis causing shock, fainting, or needing a breathing tube
- You have NOT had eosinophilic or other inflammatory gut disease in the last 2 years
- Your asthma is not severe or uncontrolled, with no significant flare in the last 6 months
- You have not used biologics or other food allergy treatments in the last 6 months, and you can pause allergy medicines if required

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at people with suspected or known food allergies to find out how much of a food it takes to cause a reaction. It uses an oral food challenge (eating the food under medical supervision) to predict your personal threshold.
This trial studies an oral immunotherapy approach, where children take tiny, controlled amounts of certain allergy-causing foods to build tolerance. It may help reduce allergic reactions, but only if kids meet safety and monitoring requirements.
This study tests if giving small, increasing amounts of cashew can help children outgrow their allergy. It may be an option for kids who are allergic to cashew and have had a clear allergic reaction in a food challenge.
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 trial tests a slow, multi-food oral immunotherapy (giving small amounts of several foods) in young children with food allergies. It aims to see if this treatment can help children safely eat more foods without allergic reactions.
This trial tests whether giving very small amounts of cashew protein (like a food immunotherapy) can help children and teens with cashew allergy become less allergic. If it works, it might lower the risk of severe reactions.
