Inclusion criteria

1. Suspicion or history of food allergy based on medical history, positive skin prick test, and/or serum food-specific IgE. A suggestive history is defined as typical clinical signs and/or symptoms (urticaria, angioedema, abdominal pain, vomiting, dyspnea, wheeze) within 60 minutes of the ingestion of a food. 2. Ability to discontinue all antihistamines for 1 week before oral food challenge.

Exclusion criteria

1. Previous desensitization treatment to a food allergen 2. Allergies to any component of the oral challenge vehicle 3. Unstable conditions including uncontrolled asthma or chronic urticaria 4. Any clinically significant disease/chronic medical condition which may interfere with study evaluations.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Eliciting dose thresholds to food challenge1 yearThreshold are measured by controlled food challenge to incremental doses of allergen (g) and are adjudicated according to CoFAR v3.0 criteria

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire Child Form1 yearThe number of items found in the child form questionnaire includes 30 items. Food allergy quality of life questionnaire is answered on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) with higher scores representing worse impairment.
Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire Adult Form1 yearThe number of items found in the Adult Form questionnaire includes 35 items. Food allergy quality of life questionnaire is answered on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) with higher scores representing worse impairment.
Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire Parent Form1 yearThe number of items found in the Parent Form questionnaire includes 38 items. Food allergy quality of life questionnaire consists of 3 to 4 domains, each question is answered on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) with higher scores representing worse impairment.
Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire Teen Form1 yearThe number of items found in the Teen Form questionnaire includes 26 items. Food allergy quality of life questionnaire is answered on a 7-point scale (0 to 6) with higher scores representing worse impairment.
Specific IgE1 yearMeasured by ImmunoCap (kU/L)
Basophil Activation Test1 yearMeasured by flow cytometry (cell frequency basophils and median fluorescence intensity)
Skin Prick Testing1 yearMeasured by mean wheal size (mm)
