Filter by:The overall objective of the RESTORATiVE303 study is to evaluate the safety and the Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) recurrence rate at Week 8 in participants who receive a 14-day course of VE303 or matching placebo. The objectives and endpoints are identical for Stage 1 (recurrent CDI) and Stage 2 (high-risk primary CDI).
The microbiology department prospectively generates a data base of all episodes of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) in the institution, the investigators will analyse the evolution of the episodes and the incidence per 10,000 days of stay of cases of diagnosed CDI in the Hematological wards and the rest of the hospital during the 2006-2018 period. The investigators will also compare the impact on haematological paediatric population. In order to analyse the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of CDI in this population, a case and control study will be conducted, reviewing the medical records of patients who have had an episode of diarrhoea caused by C. difficile in an hematological unit, which will be compared with non-hematological patients who have had an CDI episode These patients will be selected randomly from the Microbiology Department database. The sample size will be 400 patients, 200 per arm. The histories will be reviewed according to a pre-established clinical protocol including epidemiological, clinical, therapeutic and evolution variables. A prospective study in 2019-2020 will also be conducted. The investigators will include all patients diagnosed with an hematological/oncological disease or with any immunosuppressive condition, who have a positive detection of toxigenic Clostridium difficile. Patients will be followed for at least 2 months. For each patient a protocol data will be filled prospectively.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the gut microbiota and clinical outcomes of oral FMT during antibiotic treatment, immediately following antibiotic treatment, and placebo. The second objective is to assess the safety and feasibility of daily oral Fecal Microbiome Transplant (FMT) as a treatment option.
This study evaluates the efficacy of prophylaxis with oral vancomycin for preventing recurrent Clostridium difficile Infection (CDI) in patients who have experienced at least one CDI episode in the last 180 days and are receiving antibiotics for a non CDI condition. Participants will be randomized to receive either placebo or oral vancomycin in addition to their prescribed antibiotic therapy.
