The FOUNDATION Study (FOUNDATION)

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The FOUNDATION study will evaluate the tolerability of feeding preterm infants a B. infantis probiotic (EVC001) as the primary endpoint. This particular strain of Bifidobacterium has been shown to uniquely utilize oligosaccharides found in human breast milk, possibly providing a nutritional benefit for the infant consuming breast milk when B. infantis is colonized in the gut.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Preterm Infant Other: B. infantis EVC001 Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
This is a single-center, open-label, prospective, cohort study of an infant probiotic (Food for Special Dietary Use) conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Each subject enrolled will be in the study from the time of consent (within 10 days of birth) to hospital discharge. A prospective control cohort of 15 infants will initially be enrolled. Fifteen (15) infants will then be enrolled into the B. infantis cohort. Infants in the B. infantis cohort will receive a daily feeding of B. infantis EVC001 in MCT oil until hospital discharge.

    Effect of B. infantis EVC001 on the gut microbiome of preterm infants. DNA will be extracted from stool swab samples and will be used for quantitative PCR to determine levels of B. infantis.

    Effect of B. infantis EVC001 on the gut microbiome of preterm infants. DNA will be extracted from stool swab samples and will be used for quantitative PCR to determine levels of Bifidobacterium.

  3. Changes in the preterm gut microbiome over time related to probiotic supplementation [ Time Frame: Baseline; Study Days 14 and 28; and 34, 36, and 38 weeks gestational age ]
    Effect of B. infantis EVC001 on the gut microbiome of preterm infants. DNA and RNA will be extracted from stool swab samples and will be used for next generation sequencing to determine relative abundance of the most abundant bacterial taxa.
