Filter by:Fecal Virome Transplantation (FVT) has in small studies shown benefit in the treatment of recurrent C. difficile infection. In the VISION study we will treat patients with recurrent C. difficile infection with FVT capsules and compare the treatment with Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) capsules. Both will be following af standard treatment of antibiotics (Vancomycin)
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 increasing inappropriate use of antimicrobials, in addition to increasing selective pressure and inducing environmental resistance, is also a risk factor for the development of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). The intestinal microbiota is mainly composed of the phyla Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Acinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Fusobacteria and Verrucomicrobia, and more than 90% of the phylum Firmicutes is composed of Clostridium spp. (two). The inappropriate use of antimicrobials initiates a process of dysregulation of the microbiome, called dysbiosis, and it is from the selection of genera and species of bacteria that will dominate the intestine that pseudomembranous colitis can set in with an increased burden of Clostridioides difficile, a gram positive, anaerobic, spore-forming, that produces two enterotoxins, toxin A and toxin.
Clostridium difficile (CD) infection are an important cause of morbi-mortality in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The VANCALLO trial aims at evaluating oral vancomycine reducing the risk of CD infection relying on a placebo controlled 1:1 randomized design, including one interim analysis.
