Study Overview
Brief Summary
Single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trail evaluating INF108F in breastfed infants with FPIAP
Detailed Description
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with two arms evaluating IBF108F in breastfed infants with FPIAP. Assessments will be conducted over a 4-week study period with assessment of blood in stool, infant stooling, sleep, feeding, and growth. Safety will be evaluated through collection adverse events.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Changes to Gut Microbiome Composition
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 28
Absolute change from baseline in relative abundance of B. infantis INF108F to Study Day 28 via metagenomics results in mITT population. Unit measured: The absolute change from baseline in the percentage of sequenced reads assigned to B. infantis INF108F (calculated as value at Day 28 - value at baseline).
Secondary Outcomes
- Percentage of Infants With no Gross/Visible Blood in Stool on Study Day 14 Via the Daily Log(Enrollment to Study Day 14)
- Changes to Clinical Symptoms of FPIAP(Baseline to day 28)
- Percentage of Infants Within Each Category of 'Do You Consider Your Baby's Sleep a Problem?' (Not a Problem at All, a Very Small Problem, a Small Problem, a Moderate Problem, a Serious Problem) at Baseline and Study Days 7, 14, and 28 Via the Weekly Log(Baseline, Study Day 7, Study Day 14, Study Day 28)
