Oral Immunotherapy With Egg in Infants
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a treatment where infants with egg allergies gradually eat small, increasing amounts of egg to build tolerance. The goal is to help their immune system stop reacting dangerously to egg.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has a confirmed egg allergy (positive blood test for egg sensitivity)
- Your child has had a confirmed allergic reaction to egg when given a supervised test
- Your child has a low threshold for egg reactions (reacts to very small amounts)
- Your child does not have uncontrolled asthma
- Your child is not currently taking biologics or immunosuppressive medications
- Your child is not taking antihistamines regularly (may need to stop before the trial)

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 trial tests an oral (by mouth) immune-based treatment to reduce egg allergy reactions in children ages 6 to 16. It may help some kids become more tolerant to egg, but it requires careful screening and follow-through.
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 trial tests a step-by-step 'egg ladder' to safely introduce egg protein to children aged 1–5 years who have a confirmed egg allergy. The goal is to help them build tolerance and reduce the risk of allergic reactions.
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 a treatment that gradually exposes children to small amounts of peanut and certain tree nuts to reduce their allergy. It aims to help children safely tolerate multiple nuts at once.
