Developments in Food Allergy Treatments

Allergy is a common medical condition among a large share of the global population. It is one of the chronic health conditions that may result in severe consequences. Food allergies are ubiquitous in North America and Europe. The majority of people are allergic to garlic, wheat, peanuts, milk, fish, etc. According to estimations of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), ~1 million children in the US are allergic to peanuts, and one in five of these children is likely to surmount the respective allergy condition. In those who don’t outgrowth this allergy, the small intake of peanuts is unpredictable and harmful, which may result in severe reactions. Therefore, it becomes essential to develop treatment options for allergies to such common foodstuff.

Developments in the pharmaceuticals industry have enabled companies to offer treatment for peanut allergy reactions. In February 2020, the US FDA approved Palforzia, peanut (Arachis hypogaea) allergen powder-dnfp, as a treatment for peanut allergy, which is intended to alleviate allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis resulting from accidental peanut intake. The product is developed for children from the age group of 4–17. Palforzia was developed by Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc., a Nestle Health Science Company. It is administered in three dosages such as initial dose escalation, up-dosing, and maintenance. Palforzia is packaged in pull-apart color-coded capsules for dose escalation and up-dosing and in sachets for the maintenance stage. While administering, it is mixed with semi-solid food such as curd and pudding. It has been made available in the US, Canada, and Europe. Such developments in the food allergy treatment options and their effectiveness are the factors boosting the allergy treatment market growth.

Also, factors such as the increasing adoption of immunotherapy in allergy treatment through allergy shots and sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) have shown to reduce allergic symptoms by 50–65% among the patients who have completed their dosages of allergens.
