Clostridium Difficile Clinical Trial
Official title:
Rectal Bacteriotherapy, Fecal Microbiota Transplantation or Oral Vancomycin Treatment of Recurrent Clostridium Difficile Infections
The purpose of the study is to investigate if treatment with fecal microbiota transplantation or rectal bacteriotherapy is superior to standard vancomycin in patients with recurrent Clostridium Difficile infections.
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is the most common nosocomial infection in the western
world. CDI is associated with high morbidity and mortality and is a great burden for the
health care system leading Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to identify it as
one of three most important/urgent threats to public health.
Despite antimicrobial treatment of CDI, 20% of the patients have recurrence of CDI. Due to a
dysbiosis in the gut microbiota the antimicrobial treatment seems to be less effective.
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an alternative treatment for recurrent CDI. Studies
have shown a cure rate up to 90% in patients with recurrent CDI. One alternative to FMT is
rectal bacteriotherapy (RBT) which is a standardized bacterial culture made in the laboratory
consisting of 12 different bacteria. RBT has never been investigated in a clinical trial.
The project is a randomized controlled trial including 450 patients with recurrent CDI will
be, after accepting participation, allocated to receive vancomycin alone or vancomycin
followed by either FMT or RBT. The patients will be followed up for 180 days. Cure is defined
as resolution of CDI symptoms 90 days after treatment.
