Brief Summary

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

The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the growth of infants fed with the Test Formula is non-inferior those fed with the Control Formula. The study will also evaluate the gastrointestinal tolerance, quatliy of life and acceptability of the new rice protein-based formula in infants with cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA).

7. Suspected CMPA as per standard clinical practice and in conjunction with at least 2 symptoms present from the list shown below:

1. Inconsolable crying, regurgitation, liquid stools or constipation, skin atopic lesion, cow's milk provoked temporary urticaria/angioedema or vomiting, bloody streaks in stool, or respiratory symptoms
2. For diagnosis based on either a positive IgE blood test, skin prick test or food challenge, only at least 1 symptom from above list needs to be present
8. Infant is receiving a strict cow's milk elimination diet and will continue receiving this diet until the completion of the study
9. Infant's parent(s)/LAR is of legal age of majority, must have parental authority, must understand the informed consent form and other study documents, and is willing and able to fulfill the requirements of the study protocol

Exclusion Criteria

1. History of intolerance to eHF formula

8. Immunodeficiency
9. Persistent wheeze or chronic respiratory disease
10. Severe uncontrolled eczema
11. History of severe anaphylactic reaction (e.g., requiring ≥ 2 doses of epinephrine) to cow's milk or breast milk at any time prior to enrollment
12. Weight-for-age value \< -2 or \> 2 standard deviations from the WHO Child Growth Standards median at enrollment
13. Height-for-age \< -2 or \> 2 standard deviations from the WHO Child Growth Standards median at enrollment
14. Infant's parent has other medical or psychiatric condition that, in the judgement of the investigator, would make the infant inappropriate for entry into the study
