New hope for kids with cashew allergy: daily drops may build tolerance

NCT ID NCT07170540

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a treatment called sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) for children ages 1-11 with cashew allergy. For 18 months, children receive daily drops under the tongue to see if they can safely eat more cashew without a reaction. The goal is to reduce allergy severity, not cure it, and children may still need to avoid cashew long-term.
