Brief Summary

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

This phase 1, single-center, open-label study aims to evaluate the tolerability and usability of WPMDE1, a whey protein milk-derived exosome (EV) nutritional supplement, in healthy adults. The study will assess dose tolerability and determine the appropriate dosage for future studies targeting patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

Detailed Description

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

WPMDE1 is a nutritional supplement derived from cow's milk using a novel production process designed to preserve extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their biological functions. This single-arm, unblinded trial will explore the effects of ascending doses of WPMDE1 on tolerability and usability in up to 30 healthy adults aged 18-60. Participants will be divided into five groups to test incremental doses over 7-30 days.

The study includes blood sampling, vital sign measurements, and daily symptom tracking via validated gastrointestinal symptom questionnaires. The outcomes will inform the design of future clinical trials targeting IBS and IBD patients. The trial will be conducted at Hadassah University Hospital.
