Summary
This study compares new plant-protein tube feeds to standard animal-protein ones in adults who need tube feeding at home. Over 110 participants will try the plant-based feed for 3 months, with follow-ups up to a year. Researchers will check gut comfort, how well patients accept the feed, and their nutrition and strength.

Active substance
plant-protein dominant enteral tube feed
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that plant-protein tube feeds are a viable alternative to animal-protein ones, offering more options for home tube-fed patients.
What could go wrong
This is an early exploratory trial with only 110 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The study focuses on tolerance and nutrition, not long-term health outcomes.
