Primary Outcome Measures:

Pharmacokinetic analysis. [ Time Frame: Day 1 and 5 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Mean intragastric 24 hour pH (subset of 6 subjects) [ Time Frame: Day -1, 1 and 5 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

GERD symptom assessment. [ Time Frame: Days 1-5 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment:	24
Study Start Date:	January 2005
Study Completion Date:	July 2005
Primary Completion Date:	July 2005 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental	Drug: Lansoprazole Lansoprazole 1.0 mg/kg/day suspension, orally, once daily for up to 5 Days.
2: Experimental	Drug: lansoprazole suspension Lansoprazole 2.0 mg/kg/day suspension, orally, once daily for up to 5 Days.

Detailed Description:

A Phase 1, multicenter, pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic and safety study in which infants will be randomized in an open-label fashion to receive 5 days of open-label treatment with lansoprazole pediatric suspension 1 mg/kg/day oral, or lansoprazole pediatric suspension 2 mg/kg/day oral. On Dosing Days 1 and 5, blood samples will be obtained for drug assay. All subjects will be evaluated for inclusion in the pH monitoring portion of the study and will undergo pH monitoring, provided it is clinically indicated, at the discretion of the investigator. Intragastric pH monitoring (up to 24 hours) will be performed at Baseline, on Dosing Day 1 (or Day 2) and on Dosing Day 5 (or Day 6). Intraesophageal pH may be done in addition to intragastric pH at the discretion of the investigator. Subjects will be evaluated for safety, including a follow-up visit on Post-Dosing Day 14.
