Cashew allergy treatment with cashew protein
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 4 and 17 years old
- You have a confirmed cashew allergy based on skin prick tests or blood tests
- You have had an allergic reaction to cashew in a supervised food challenge
- Your parent or guardian signs a consent form (and you sign if you're over 16)
- You and your family are willing to work closely with the research team

This trial tests whether a specially boiled cashew nut can help children with cashew allergy eat cashews without a reaction. It is for children ages 2 to 17 with a confirmed cashew allergy, and it avoids other serious health conditions.
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 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 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.
This study tests whether people who already completed cashew oral immunotherapy can stop eating cashew protein and still be protected from allergic reactions. It helps researchers understand if the treatment leads to lasting tolerance.
