Learning early about peanut allergy
Learning early about peanut allergy
A clinical research study to help determine whether consumption or avoidance of peanuts is the best way to prevent peanut allergy in young children, is celebrating the enrolment of its 100th participant.
The LEAP (Learning early about peanut allergy) study has reached this milestone since it started recruitment in December last year. The study, which is being conducted by leading paediatric allergist, Professor Gideon Lack, at the Evelina Children's Hospital, based at St Thomas' Hospital, London, aims to discover how to prevent young children developing a peanut allergy.
