Scientific titleTrial to Reduce Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus in the Genetically at Risk: a randomised controlled trial
Study acronymTRIGR
Study objectivesThe hypothesis for this proposal holds that weaning to an extensively hydrolysed infant formula will decrease the incidence of type I diabetes, as it does in all relevant animal models for the disease.
Ethics approval(s)1. The Hospital District of Helsinki and UUSIMAA, Finland, 19/09/2000
2. The Ethical Committee of Paediatrics and Psychiatry, London Health Sciences Centre, London, Ontario, 02/05/2002
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedType 1 Diabetes Mellitus
InterventionExperimental Arm:
Use of infant feed formula, cow milk based, extensively hydrolysed administered when needed in supplementation or substitution for breast milk through 6 - 8 months from birth. (Formulated by MeadJohnson)

Control Arm:
Use of infant feed formula, cow milk based, non-hydrolysed administered when needed in supplementation or substitution for breast milk through 6 - 8 months from birth. (Formulated by MeadJohnson)
