简要总结
The goal of this study is to establish a birth cohort that collects prenatal and early life biosamples and environmental samples and rigorously phenotypes young children for food allergy and Atopic Dermatitis (AD) to identify prenatal and early life markers of high risk for food allergy and AD, as well as biological pathways (endotypes) that result in these conditions.
Primary Objectives:
- To study the role and interrelationships of established and novel clinical, environmental, biological, and genetic prenatal and early-life factors in the development and course of allergic diseases through age 3 years (or 6 years for those who choose to continue participation into SUNBEAM II), with an emphasis on atopic dermatitis and food allergy
- To apply systems biology to identify mechanisms and biomarkers underlying the development of food allergy, atopic dermatitis, and their endotypes
- To collect, process, and assay or store environmental and biological samples for current and future use in the study of allergic disease development
详细描述
This is a prospective cohort study in which pregnant women (at any stage of pregnancy), the offspring's biologic father, and the offspring will be enrolled at study sites, and the offspring will be observed from birth to age 3 years. Enrollment of biological fathers will be attempted; however, enrollment of the mother or child is not dependent on enrollment of the biological father. The enrollment goal is at least 2500 mothers and their offspring having reached 12 months on study. Additionally, families will be offered the opportunity for the child participant to continue SUNBEAM through age 6 via the SUNBEAM II continuation protocol.
During the study, biological and environmental samples and questionnaire information will be collected from the parents and the children, and the children will be assessed for allergic diseases at clinic visits at ages 2, 5, 12, 24, and 36 months and for those who opt to continue participation, at 48, 60, and 72 months.

入选标准
- •Pregnant Women-
- •Pregnant women who meet all of the following criteria are eligible for enrollment as study participants:
- •Age 18 years or older
- •Able to understand the oral and written instructions associated with study visits and procedures and provide informed consent
- •Pregnant at any stage
- •Planning to give birth at a study-site designated center
- •Agrees to enroll offspring into the study at birth
- •In the case of multiple gestation, agrees to enroll only one child who will be selected by randomized birth order
- •Biological Fathers-
- •Biological fathers who meet all of the following criteria are eligible for enrollment as study participants:
- •Age 18 years or older
- •Able to understand the oral and written instructions associated with study visits and procedures and provide informed consent
排除标准
- •Pregnant Women-
- •Pregnant women who meet any of these criteria are not eligible for enrollment:
- •Inability or unwillingness to comply with study protocol
- •Serious pregnancy complication (in the judgement of the investigator) prior to enrollment
- •Fetus has a major chromosomal anomaly
- •Plans to move and would not be available for in-person visits at a study site
- •Plans to give up her child for adoption at birth
- •Pregnancy is the result of an egg donation
- •Infants who meet any of these criteria are not eligible for enrollment:
- •Delivered earlier than 34 weeks of gestation
- •Sibling already enrolled
- •Born with a significant birth defect or medical condition, and in the judgment of the investigators, participation is not in the infant's best interest
- •Biological Father-
- •1. Biological fathers who are unable or unwilling to comply with the study protocol as it pertains to the biological father's participation are not eligible for enrollment
- •---Note Regarding Legal Guardians who are not the Biological Parents:
- •At screening for enrollment of either the mother or the child, if the biological mother intends to give the infant up for adoption, neither the mother nor the child are eligible for enrollment
- •If the biological mother gives up legal guardianship of the child during the child's follow-up period, the child may remain enrolled as long as the new legal guardian:
- •Agrees to meet the child's study requirements, and
- •Provides written informed consent for the child's continued participation.
- •Throughout the protocol where it refers to the mother, father, or parent answering questionnaires about the child or collecting samples from the child and the child's primary home, the legal guardian who provides consent for the child's participation may complete those procedures
结局指标
主要结局
Incidence of Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-Mediated, Immediate-Type Food Allergy
时间窗: From 5 months to 72 months of age
To understand the early life origin and risk factors of child's IgE-mediated, immediate-type food allergy. Based upon clinical assessments and diagnostic criteria for food allergy, in accordance with the Food Allergy Algorithm, per protocol.
Incidence of Atopic Dermatitis (AD)
时间窗: From 2 months to 72 months of age
To understand the early life origin and risk factors of child's atopic dermatitis (AD). Atopic dermatitis is defined as the following since the last assessment (or since birth for the 2- and 5-month visits): 1. A history of a dry or itchy rash that is (a) either continuous or intermittent lasting at least 4 weeks OR (b) requiring medicated treatment AND 2. The rash was or is present in the skin creases (folds of elbows, behind the knees, fronts of ankles, or around the neck) or on the extensor aspects of the forearms or lower legs or on cheeks or trunk. Any infant fulfilling these criteria but who, on examination by a suitably trained health professional, is deemed to have a different skin disease that explains the above findings will be classified as not having atopic dermatitis.
