Novel therapies in the management of food allergy: Oral immunotherapy and anti-IgE

South African Medical Journal, Volume 105, No. 1, Year 2015

Studies using anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody in food allergy management are limited, but show promising results. The possible applications are for increasing the sensitivity threshold to certain foods such as peanut, and also for use in combination with OIT to enhance safety and rapidity of the OIT process; however, anti-IgE is not yet licensed for use in food allergy.
