New study aims to sharpen legume allergy testing
NCT ID NCT06923878
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at better ways to diagnose allergies to common legumes like peas, lentils, chickpeas, and green beans. About 100 people with suspected legume allergies will take skin prick tests, blood tests for specific IgE antibodies, and a newer component test. Results will be compared to the gold-standard oral food challenge to see which tests are most accurate.
