About this study

Wheat allergy is increasing in Thailand. Some studies show that cutaneous exposure of allergen may cause allergy and there are many wheat containing skin care products that are over-the-counter. So the purpose of our study is to determine level of specific immunoglobulin E antibodies to wheat and omega-5 gliadin in wheat allergy patients after stop using wheat containing skin care products.

Read the detailed description

All children in this study were sensitized to wheat. Each patient was clinically evaluated, with focus on wheat allergy by medical history, medical examination included skin status (suspected atopic dermatitis or not). Blood sample was taken for baseline determination of immunoglobulin E antibodies to wheat and to omega-5 gliadin. Transepidermal water loss was examined in case with atopic dermatitis. The primary outcome was the specific immunoglobulin E antibodies to wheat and omega-5 gliadin in case that stop using wheat containing skin care product and case that continue using products.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Specific IgE to wheat and omega-5 gliadin level

    To follow-up the level of wheat and omega5 gliadin specificIgE after stop using the wheat containing skin care product compare to patients who continue using the product.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. level of transepidermal water loss

    To follow up the transepidermal water loss in patients with atopic dermatitis, comparing the group that continue using the product to the group that stop using the product.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing wheat containing skin care products in people with Wheat Allergy and Children, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: 1. Limit number of patients during COVID-19 situation 2. Too small number of wheat allergic patients who are using wheat containing soap). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Specific IgE to wheat and omega-5 gliadin level (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04013763, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Apr 2022.
