Brief Summary: This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, double-blind study of healthy term infants. The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the safety of a a starter infant formula supplemented with pre- and probiotic(s) by comparing the growth of infants randomized to the experimental formula versus the control formula from enrolment to 4 months of age.
Detailed Description: This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, double-blind study of healthy term infants, consisting of two randomized formula-fed arms (control and experimental formulas) and a non-randomized breast-fed reference group.

The population under investigation are healthy infants aged ≤14 days at enrollment. The planned sample size for formula-fed infants is 236 (118 per study group). A non-randomized breastfed reference group of 90 healthy, term, exclusively breastfed infants up to 4 months will also be enrolled.

Study formulas are administrated orally, ad libitum, from enrollment until 15 months of age.

The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the safety of a starter infant formula supplemented with pre- and probiotic(s) by comparing the growth (weight gain, g/day) of infants randomized to the experimental formula versus the control formula from enrolment to 4 months of age.

In addition fecal microbiome, fecal metabolic profile, fecal markers of immune and gut health, blood markers of immune health (in a subset of 60 infants/group), GI tolerance, bone index (subset of 40 infants/group), other anthropometric measurements, dietary pattern and infant illness and infection outcomes will be assessed/measured.
