Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the oral nutritional therapy serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin protein isolate (SBI) 2.5 g twice a day (BID) and SBI 5.0 g versus placebo on supporting nutrient absorption in HIV+ subjects with HIV-associated enteropathy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is evaluating the effectiveness of the oral nutritional therapy serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin protein isolate (SBI) 2.5g BID and SBI 5.0g compared to placebo for 6 months on gastrointestinal symptoms, nutritional status and quality of life in HIV+ subjects with HIV-associated enteropathy. In addition, the effects of SBI on pro-inflammatory intestinal microbial populations, bacterial translocation, intestinal barrier function, and systemic immune activation will be investigated.

SBI is a specially formulated light-colored protein powder composed of immunoglobulin (IgG) and other serum proteins similar to those found in colostrum and milk. SBI does not contain any milk products such as lactose, casein, or whey. SBI is gluten-free, dye-free, and soy-free. SBI is manufactured in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) and FDA guidelines for medical food ingredients.
