Study Summary

Lacto-N-tetraose (LNT) is a human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) present in human colostrum and milk. HMOs are largely undigestable and have no direct nutritive benefit to the infant, but act as a prebiotic substrate for beneficial bacteria (bifidobacteria, in particular) in the infant gut. Exclusively formula-fed infants lack HMOs in their diet in the absence of naturally occurring HMOs from breast milk. The proposed clinical study will evaluate the ability of a prebiotic supplement (LNT) to initiate intestinal colonization of a probiotic strain (B. infantis EVC001) in exclusively formula-fed infants. B. infantis EVC001 has been shown to be well-tolerated and safely consumed in breastfed infants. This study also aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LNT in different doses when consumed daily with B. infantis EVC001.
