- Target Recruitment
- 100
100 children between 6 and 18 years with a clinical diagnosis of food allergy to =1 food allergen, including a positive skin prick test (SPT) (mean wheal diameter > 3mm), specific IgE (s-IgE) > 0.35 kIU/l to the allergen in question, and a positive food challenge with a threshold at or below 300 mg of protein (443 mg cumulative) in a double blind placebo controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) (Table 2). If the patient is allergic to more than one food allergen, the allergen with the highest probability of fulfilling the inclusion criteria (based on case history, level of specific IgE and when available challenge results within the last year) will be used.
Are the trial subjects under 18? yes
Number of subjects for this age range: 100
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

•Significant co-morbidity that might compromise the patient’s safety or study outcomes
•Pregnancy or nursing in the adolescents. Women of childbearing potential have to use safe contraception (intrauterine device or hormonal contraception if sexual active). Safe contraception has to be used during the whole trial period and half a year after the last dose of the trial medicine has been taken.

•Ongoing treatment with ß-blockers and ACE-inhibitors
•Ongoing treatment with oral glucocorticoids/Omalizumab/allergen immunotherapy (AIT)
•Alcohol abuse, abuse of opioids or other drugs in adolescents
•Patients/parents who are not supposed to be able to meet the requirements in the protocol
