Evaluation of Hypoallergenicity of a New Extensively Hydrolyzed Formula

July 31, 2017 updated by: Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN)
Infants/children with cow's milk allergy will take part in 2 double-blinded placebo-controlled food challenges (DBPCFC) of 2 extensively hydrolyzed formulas in random order. If both food challenges are passed, subjects will be asked to consume the Test formula in an at-home open challenge for 7 days.
