- Written informed consent provided by parents/guardians, according to local law.
Who cannot join

- Diagnosis or known allergy to any of the ingredients in the test product.
- Congenital anomalies which will interfere with oral feeding or gastrointestinal tract, other chronic diseases (including but not limited to cardiovascular disease, malignancy, hepatic disease, renal disease, haematological disease, neurological disease, immunological and endocrine disease), major gastrointestinal disease/abnormalities, or any other medical condition that could interfere with the identification of allergic reactions.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Hydrolyzed protein infant formula and commercially available hypoallergenic infant formula in people with Cow's Milk Allergy, run by Nutricia Research at 1 site in Italy.
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 9 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
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?
Hypoallergenicity (time frame: 25-35 days). 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 8 May 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
