Grant Activity:
Oral bacterial lysate to prevent persistent wheeze in infants after severe bronchiolitis; a randomised placebo controlled trial (BLIPA; Bacterial Lysate in Preventing Asthma)
Purpose:
Preventing the development of wheeze in preschool children would produce major health benefits, but to date no therapies have proved to be effective. A group of infants who are at very high risk of developing preschool wheeze and subsequent asthma, are infants who are hospitalised with bronchiolits. We are partnering leaders in the United Kingdom in this study which will examine whether boosting the immune system by giving granules of lysed dead bacteria can prevent future childhood asthma.
