Summary

The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of improving cognitive development in newly born infants fed with Feihe investigational formula product containing HMO, and DHA/ARA. The main question it aims to answer is:

\- whether the score of Bayley-III cognitive scale (tested at the age of 12 months) of participants in the study product arm is significantly better than participants assigned in the other two arms.

240 qualified participants will be randomized to 3 arms (investigational formula, control formula, and breast-feeding) to consume assigned formula or breast-feeding for 12 months according to protocol. There will be up to 6 site visits arranged for each participant during the study, and all relevant clinical and questionnaire data, including the most important Barley-III cognitive scale data at the age of 12 months, will be captured, recorded and entered to CMTS (Clinical Management Trial System) for statistical analysis and reporting.

Researchers will compare the three arms to validate the assumption that the consumption of Feihe investigational formula product containing HMO, and DHA/ARA will improve cognitive development in newly born infants, along with physical development.
