Evaluation of Hypoallergenicity of an Amino Acid-Based Infant Formula


The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether a new amino acid-based
formula is hypoallergenic as defined by the American Academy of Pediatrics (2000),
demonstrating that the test formula does not provoke allergenic activity in 90% of infants
or children with confirmed cow's milk allergy (CMA) with 95% confidence as compared to a
commercially available hypoallergenic formula.
