Study Summary

The present pilot study is aimed to obtain preliminary data on the effect of three ascending oral dose levels of nepadutant on the relief of symptoms associated with feeding intolerance. In addition, the assessment of drug exposure (PK assessment) will provide additional information on the dose-effect relationship, thus supporting the dose selection and dosing schedule in the future studies.

Primary Outcome

Results obtained at V2 serve as baseline values for the assessment of effects at V3 (i.e. end of first week of treatment). Infant Gastroesophageal Reflux Questionnaire Revised (I-GERQ-R ), with a minimum-maximum score of 0-42 (minimum for diagnosis \>15). The higher values reflect worse outcome. The questionnaire comprised 12 items as questions quantifying aspects of regurgitation (3 questions), crying (3 questions), feeding refusal (2 questions), apnea/cyanosis (2 questions), hiccups and archi
