Can mapping fish allergy profiles in kids improve diagnosis?
NCT ID NCT07727148
First seen Jul 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 28, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 120 children and adolescents in Spain who have been newly diagnosed with IgE-mediated fish allergy. Researchers will collect data on symptoms, test results, and molecular sensitization patterns to better understand how fish allergy presents in this population. The goal is to improve diagnosis, risk assessment, and personalized care for affected children.

Who is studied
The study population consists of children and adolescents evaluated for suspected fish allergy in the Allergy Units of participating hospitals across Spain. Participants will be recruited consecutively from routine clinical practice at tertiary referral centers that are members of the Spanish Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (SEAIC). The study includes patients from multiple geographical regions, providing a representative sample of the Spanish pediatric population referred for specialized allergy assessment.

Inclusion Criteria: * Children and adolescents aged 0 to 17 years (up to 18 years of age). * First clinical episode compatible with IgE-mediated fish allergy. * Evidence of allergic sensitization demonstrated by at least one of the following: * Positive skin prick test (wheal diameter ≥3 mm compared with the negative control); or * Serum specific IgE ≥0.35 kUA/L to at least one fish species or fish allergen component. * Written informed consent obtained from the parent(s) or legal guardian(s), and assent from participants aged 12 years or older, when applicable. Exclusion Criteria: * Age ≥18 years. * Non-IgE-mediated fish allergy (e.g., fish-induced FPIES). * Severe dermographism, chronic urticaria, or severe atopic dermatitis preventing reliable interpretation of skin prick testing. * Inability to complete the diagnostic procedures required by the study. * Absence of informed consent or, when applicable, participant assent.
