Summary

This trial tested a drug, INF108F, to treat FPIAP in breastfed infants. It was carefully designed and monitored.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for breastfed infants aged 1-90 days with Food Protein Induced Allergic Proctocolitis (FPIAP), showing blood in stool without other causes. Infants must be born full-term and receive at least half of their nutrition from breastfeeding. Those with medical complications, prior surgeries, recent antibiotic use, or exposure to certain probiotics are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of INF108F probiotic on infants with FPIAP against a placebo. It's a single-center trial where participants are randomly assigned to either the probiotic or placebo group without knowing which one they're receiving (double-blind).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common side effects of probiotics can include digestive discomfort such as gas or bloating. Since this involves infants, close monitoring for any adverse reactions will be essential.
