Coeliac disease and food allergy management primarily relies on the strict avoidance of dietary antigens. This approach is challenging to maintain in real-world settings carries risk life-threatening anaphylaxis. Despite their distinct pathogenesis, both disorders are driven by maladaptive responses proteins, creating opportunities for shared treatment strategies. In allergy, desensitisation therapies such as oral, sublingual, epicutaneous immunotherapy well-established, complemented biologics like omalizumab dupilumab. However, induction sustained tolerance remains challenging. contrast, therapeutic advancements coeliac still early stages. Current efforts focus gluten detoxification or modification, immune blockade modulation, tolerogenic approaches, barrier restoration. Emerging therapies, including JAK BTK inhibitors microbiome-targeted interventions, support further targeted options conditions. Biomarkers tracking gluten-specific T cells have emerged valuable tools immunomonitoring symptom assessment disease, although standardisation patient-reported outcome measures challenge protocols needed. Food trials reliant double-blind placebo-controlled challenges measure allergen reactivity, but these time-consuming, carry risks, underscore need surrogate biomarkers. The successful development immune-targeted will require building an toolset optimally assess systemic antigens Clinically, this could lead better outcomes patients who might otherwise remain undiagnosed untreated due absence significant enteropathy allergen-specific symptoms.
