NCT ID NCT07231705

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing two plant-based formulas made from pea protein in 40 children aged 1 to 2 years who get most of their nutrition from formula. The goal is to see if these formulas support healthy growth and are well-tolerated over 24 weeks. Researchers will also check body composition, vitamin levels, and gut health.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
pea protein-based formulas (Kate Farms Standard 1.2 and Peptide 1.0)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that plant-based formulas are a safe and effective option for supporting healthy growth in toddlers who rely on formula.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 children, so results may not apply to all. It does not compare the formulas to standard options, and some children may not tolerate the formula well.
