Trial of dairy-free diet with liquid nutrition for eosinophilic esophagitis
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Digestive system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a dairy-free diet combined with a special liquid nutrition drink (called Kate Farms) can help children and young adults with eosinophilic esophagitis (a condition where certain white blood cells build up in the esophagus and cause trouble swallowing, pain, or vomiting). The goal is to see if this combination can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.

This trial tests whether children with eosinophilic esophagitis triggered by cow's milk can safely eat baked dairy foods. If you are in remission on a milk-free diet, you may be able to add baked milk products back into your diet.
This study looks at how the esophagus stretches and moves in people with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who still have symptoms even though their inflammation is under control. The goal is to better understand why symptoms persist and find better ways to measure them.
This study looks at how the immune system and the esophageal barrier function in people with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) compared to those without. It involves taking biopsies during an upper endoscopy to understand the disease better. The results may help improve treatments for EoE.
This trial tests if dupilumab can help young children with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), a condition that causes swelling in the esophagus. It may reduce symptoms and improve how the esophagus heals.
This study tests a new way to check for a condition called eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in children getting oral immunotherapy for food allergies. You swallow a small capsule on a string to collect cells from your esophagus—no endoscopy needed.
This study tests a new way to find out which foods are causing your EoE symptoms, so you can avoid only those foods instead of a full elimination diet. It involves a blood test and an endoscopy, and results will help guide your diet plan.
