[USA], Feb 24 (ANI): A new research, presented by study author Edwin Kim, at the annual Americal Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAI) conference in San Francisco, found that after completing up to four years of egg oral immunotherapy (eOIT) treatment, certain participants were able to safely incorporate egg into their diet for five years.
The trial began with either eOIT or a placebo for 55 patients aged 5-11 who were allergic to egg.
Desensitised patients then stopped eOIT and were tested for sensitivity again.
