About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Acceptability (including Gastrointestinal Tolerance, Compliance and Palatability) of a High Energy Peptide Based Paediatric Oral Nutritional Supplement for Children Over 12 Months of Age

This is an acceptability study (including gastrointestinal tolerance, compliance and palatability) of a high energy peptide based paediatric oral nutritional supplement for children over 12 months of age.

The acceptability data from a minimum of 15 participants will be collected in order to submit an application to the Advisory Committee on Borderline Substances (ACBS).

Read the detailed description

Fifteen (15) participants, aged 12 months and over, requiring a high energy peptide based oral nutritional supplement drink for the dietary management.

The ACBS requirement for evaluable data on 15 participants has informed the trial's recruitment target; however, we may need to exceed this target if any patients give their consent to join the study but then decide not to participate in the study. Participants who join the study and begin using the product would count towards the recruitment total and their data would be included in a submission to the ACBS whether they complete the 7-day study period or not.

Each potential participant must meet all of the inclusion criteria and not meet any of the exclusion criteria.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Gastrointestinal tolerance

    Daily record via participant diary:

    1. Gastrointestinal tolerance:
    • Diarrhoea and / or constipation
    • Bloating and / or distension
    • Nausea and / or vomiting
    • Burping / flatulence / regurgitation
    • Abdominal discomfort / pain/ back arching/ crying
    1. Participant compliance: How many feeds taken and volume prescribed each day
    2. Acceptability

    Questionnaires to children and or parents for the evaluation of the acceptability and ease of use of the milk supplement drink Diarrhoea, constipation, bloating, distension, nausea, vomitting, burping, abdominal pain

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Nutrition Disorder, Child, run by Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN) at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Gastrointestinal tolerance (time frame: Day 7 from baseline). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2024.
