E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
To evaluate the non-inferiority of the palatability of a new paediatric formulation of Racecadotril strawberry-flavored administered as oral suspension via a graduated oral syringe compared to the current formulation (apricot-flavored oral powder pack) in healthy children 7-12 years of age.
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
Predictibility of palatability preference of the child by his (her) parent.
E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
E.3Principal inclusion criteria
-Children, boys and girls, aged from 7 to 12 years in good health
-Capable of performing the taste assessment, according to the investigator’s judgment
-Willing to participate to the taste assessment and to give his (her) assent in writing after a process of appropriate information according to his (her) capacity of understanding
-The informed consent of the parent or legal representative should be obtained for the participation of his(her) child

-Subjects with rare hereditary problems of fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption syndrome or saccharase-isomaltase deficiency
-Presence of any condition that could influence taste sensations within the 5 days before the test (upper respiratory infection, fever, buccal mucositis, aphtous ulcers)
-Intake within the 4 hours preceeding the test of substances that could interfere with taste sensation (highly spiced meals, mint or menthol – based products, chewing-gums)

Specific for children
-Child incapable, according the investigator’s opinion, to perform the test as planned in the protocol (to keep the product in the mouth without swallowing and then spit it out) and/or to express his (her) own taste impression
-Child has not given his (her) assent to participate or informed consent was not obtained from the parent
E.5 End points
E.5.1Primary end point(s)
The primary endpoint is the score of a 7-point hedonic facial scale: scored from 1 (super bad) to 7 (super good), assessed by children just after swishing and spitting out the drug.
E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
After swishing and spitting out each formulation.
E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
-the score on the numeric scale for the 4 taste perceptions (sweet, salt, sour and bitter)
-the evaluations by the parent :
- the score of Verbal 9-point hedonic scale
- the score on the visual scale for the 4 taste perceptions (sweet, salt, sour and bitter) on the verbal sensory 9-point scale
- the answers on the questionnaire on acceptability: taste, texture, aftertaste and ease of administration
E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
After swishing and spitting out each formulation + 2 minutes later for parents.
