説明

<jats:title>Summary</jats:title><jats:p>With the emergence of food allergy as an important public health problem, it has become clear that there is an unmet need in regard to treatment. In particular, <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">I</jats:styled-content>g<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">E</jats:styled-content>‐mediated food allergy that is associated with risk of fatal anaphylaxis has been the subject of multiple studies in the past decade. The growing body of evidence derived from multiple centres and various study designs indicates that for <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">I</jats:styled-content>g<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">E</jats:styled-content>‐mediated food allergy, immunomodulation through food immunotherapy is possible; however, the extent of protection afforded by such treatment is highly variable. At this time, the capacity for food immunotherapy to restore permanent tolerance to food has not been demonstrated conclusively. This review will discuss these topics as they apply to the most important studies of food oral immunotherapy.</jats:p>
