Efficacy and Saffety of Oral Immunotherapy to Pistachio
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The objectives of this study are (i) to evaluate the efficacy of oral immunotherapy to pistachio by evaluating the daily oral tolerance of 2g pistachio, by evaluating the long-term tolerance of 15g pistachio (sustained unresponsiveness) and by decreasing pistachio-specific IgE, (ii) evaluating the efficacy of pistachio immunotherapy on cashew tolerance, (iii) and to evaluate the safety of pistachio immunotherapy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Absence of moderate to severe allergic reactions [during the 6 months of maintenance]
with daily intake of 2g of pistachio
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Frequency and severity of allergic reactions [during the dose escalation phase and during the maintenance phase (first 6 months, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year)]
- Decrease in specific IgE and increase of IGg4 to pistachio [during the dose escalation phase and during the maintenance phase (first 6 months, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year)]
- Tolerance of 1, 2, 4, 8g in isolated doses and 15 g in total cumulative dose of pistachio [3 months after stopping daily consumption of 2g pistachio]
during an oral pistachio challenge test
- Tolerance of 1, 2, 4, 8g in isolated doses and 15 g in total cumulative dose of cashew nut [3 months after stopping daily consumption of 2g pistachio]
during an oral cashew nut challenge test
- Reactogenic or tolerogenic threshold of cashew nuts [during the dose escalation phase and during the maintenance phase (first 6 months, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year)]
