treatment purpose

1) Children 3 to 8 years of age with cow's milk allergy at the time of consent
2) A confirmed diagnosis of IgE-dependent cow's milk allergy (symptoms eliciting an allergic immediate reaction to cow's milk ingestion)
3) Blood vitamin D concentration less than 30 ng/mL before the start of the study
4) Children who can make regular visits to Chiba University Hospital or who live near an emergency hospital
5) Patients who have received a thorough explanation of their participation in this study and who have obtained the free and voluntary written consent of the patient and the patient's surrogate after fully understanding the study.

1) Children with gastrointestinal allergy-related diseases (neonatal/infantile food protein-induced gastroenteropathy)
2) Children who have difficulty discontinuing oral medications before the oral challenge test due to underlying disease management
3) Children with a history of anaphylactic shock
4) Blood vitamin D level of > 30 ng/mL before study entry
5) Patients with hypercalcemia and hypermagnesemia
6) Children who had anaphylactic symptoms as a result of the initial food oral load test (0.5 mL of milk) in the screening test
7) Children who were asymptomatic in the second food oral challenge test (2.5 mL of milk) of the screening test
8) Patients who are regularly taking steroids or immunosuppressive drugs (inhaled steroids and steroid ointments are allowed)
9) Patients with poorly controlled bronchial asthma or atopic dermatitis
10) Patients with serious underlying diseases (e.g., leukemia)
11) Other patients who are judged by the principal investigator or sub-investigator to be unsuitable for the safe conduct of this study

Percentage of subjects with a positive oral food challenge test (OFC) after 6 months

Secondary efficacy endpoints
1) Specific IgE and IgG4 levels before, 3 months after, and 6 months after the start of the study
2) Vitamin D levels before the start of the study, 3 months after the start of the study, and 6 months after the start of the study

Secondary safety endpoints
1) Specific allergic symptoms and the number of times they occurred during continuous intake of small amounts of milk
2) Allergy-inducing symptoms and treatment details of the oral challenge test (2.5 mL of milk) to be conducted 6 months after the start of intake of the study drug
3) Exacerbation of allergic comorbidities (atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis) and drugs used
4) Evaluation of vitamin D excess after three months and six months of the start of the study
5) Number and percentage of adverse events (fever, respiratory tract symptoms, gastroenteritis symptoms) and serious adverse events that occurred during the study period
