Food Allergy Market Analysis

The market is driven by factors such as the rising prevalence of food allergies among children and adults. Due to the increasing prevalence, research institutes and key players in the market are expanding their sources and focusing on developing the best treatment for food-allergic patients across the 7 major markets. The continuous development of innovative solutions in the market can result in increased adoption as a major population is suffering from a common food allergy, especially to peanuts. This innovative technology and its increased adoption are also expected to trigger research and development activities to find solutions for other food allergies including tree nuts, propelling the food allergy market growth.

Additionally, a new research and innovation project is targeting the development of novel immunotherapeutic drugs for peanut and multiple tree nut allergies. The project is a collaboration between DTU National Food Institute, The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Canada, and the pharmaceutical company ALK. The project ALLEVIATE2 will complete the preclinical development of sublingual immunotherapy drug candidates for the treatment of peanut allergy first.
