- Urinary P [mmol/L] Cmax [mmol/L], AUC70-370 [mmol/L*min] and Tmax [min]
- Serum Ca [mmol/L], Cmax [mmol/L], iCmax [mmol/L], AUC0-360 [mmol/L*min],
iAUC0-360 [mmol/L*min] and Tmax [min]
- Urinary Ca [mmol/L], Cmax [mmol/L], iCmax [mmol/L], AUC70-370 [mmol/L*min],
iAUC70-370 [mmol/L*min] and Tmax [min]
Background summary
Cow*s milk allergy is the most common food allergy in infancy, affecting up to
5% of infants in their first year of life. For these children hypoallergenic
infant formula is available on the market, which decreases the chance of
allergic reactions. This hypoallergenic infant formula is also provided to
infants in medically complex patients in this age group, in combination with
medication and via different routes of administration. To optimize the uptake
of minerals of the hypoallergenic infant formula for all target groups using
the formula, additional sources of phosphate have been added to the formula. In
this study the uptake of these minerals after intake of the new hypoallergenic
infant formula will be compared with those after intake of a similar product.
Study objective
This study's objective is to assess the bioavailability of phosphorus after
oral intake of a new hypoallergenic infant formula compared to the
bioavailability of phosphorus after oral intake of another hypoallergenic
infant formula.
Study design
This is a randomised, double-blind, crossover, single-centre, single-dose
study.
Intervention
In this study two study products will be investigated:
- Product A: New hypoallergenic infant formula in one serving
- Product B: A comparable hypoallergenic infant formula in one serving
Study burden and risks
Subjects should take a total volume of ~475 ml of study product mixed with
water and flavoring during 2 visits. 4 days before visits 1 and 2 the subjects
should start esomeprazole intake at home. On the day before the visits,
subjects should not eat/drink food high in phosphorus and they have to come
fasted to the research center in the evening for intake of esomeprazole.
Afterwards, subjects eat a standardized diner. During the whole study period
subjects should take a daily dose of 10 µg vitamin D. At visits 1 and 2 a
nasogastric tube is placed and subjects should take again a dose of
esomeprazole, at several time points blood will be sampled, urine will be
collected, stomach pH assessed, and a short questionnaire should be completed.
Furthermore, a pregnancy test will be performed for women 3 times in total
(using a urine dipstick). During participation, subjects should adhere to a
number of rules related to medication- and supplement use and lifestyle.
Because the study will be performed in healthy adult volunteers and the product
that is being tested is normally safely used in a vulnerable population (namely
infants with food allergy), no severe adverse events are expected. However,
subjects may suffer from e.g. nausea, bloating and abdominal distention due to
the fact that the product is taken in a concentrated form. The risks of the
other study procedures are low and these will be performed / guided by
qualified study staff.
The burden for participants in this study is considered small and the benefits
of obtaining more knowledge on phosphorus and calcium absorption after intake
of the formula intended for use in children on a milk-free diet outweighs the
minimal burden.
