Brief Summary

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

The objective of this study is to evaluate the nutritional therapy with SBI (a medical food) as compared to placebo in the clinical dietary management of mild to moderate Crohn's disease.

Detailed Description

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

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, pilot study evaluating SBI 10 g BID compared to matching placebo for 12 weeks followed by a 12 week open-label extension SBI 10 g BID (EnteraGam) in the dietary management of mild to moderate Crohn's disease.

The effect of SBI will be evaluated on Crohn's disease related symptoms and inflammation symptom control as measured by Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) scores and plasma and stool markers of inflammation. The patient's quality of life will also be assessed as an indicator of disease state.

SBI 10 g BID

Serum-derived Bovine Immunoglobulin / Protein Isolate (SBI) 10.0 grams twice per day

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Serum-derived Bovine Immunoglobulin / Protein Isolate

Intervention Type OTHER

Serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin protein isolate (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. Two packets (each packet contains 5 g of SBI) BID.

Placebo BID

Placebo w/control protein

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type OTHER

Matching placebo with control hydrolyzed gelatin protein. Two packets BID.
