New allergy shot could take the sting out of bee and wasp allergies
NCT ID NCT07309822
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing an allergy immunotherapy called Beltaven for people allergic to bee or wasp stings. Researchers want to see if a 3-week series of shots helps patients tolerate stings without a severe reaction. The study will follow 27 participants aged 14 and older who have had a systemic reaction to a sting before.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Beltaven (allergy immunotherapy shot)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that Beltaven helps people with bee or wasp allergies tolerate stings without severe reactions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small observational study with only 27 people, so results may not apply to everyone. There is always a risk of allergic reactions to the shots themselves.
