NCT ID NCT07192510

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed trial tested whether eating specially prepared pancakes daily could help children with egg allergy tolerate eggs. 23 children participated, starting with small doses in the hospital and continuing at home. The goal was to see if they could eat a full serving of cooked egg without a reaction, and whether that protection lasted even after stopping pancakes for 6-8 weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
pancake oral immunotherapy (baked egg in pancake form)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a safer and more palatable way to help children with egg allergy tolerate eggs, reducing reaction risks.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 23 participants, so results may not apply widely. Daily pancake eating may still cause allergic reactions or taste fatigue.
