Brief Summary

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

Children with cystic fibrosis require increased caloric intake to maintain appropriate growth, an important determinant of long-term outcomes. This study seeks to determine the feasibility of using a novel therapeutic food to promote weight gain and growth in children with cystic fibrosis.
