16 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Cadazolid has demonstrated activity against a bacteria named Clostridium difficile in animal studies. The results of a first study conducted in adult patients have suggested efficacy of the new antibiotic, cadazolid, in the treatment of diarrhea caused by this bacteria. This is the first study of cadazolid in children. The overall purpose of this study is to provide reassurance on the safety and efficacy of cadazolid in children suffering from infection due to Clostridium difficile.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical response to fidaxomicin oral suspension or tablets and vancomycin oral liquid or capsules in pediatric participants with Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD). It also investigated the recurrence/sustained clinical response to and safety of fidaxomicin and vancomycin, as well as acceptance of the fidaxomicin oral suspension formulation.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new oral antibiotic called SMT19969 in treating C. difficile Infection (CDI).
This is a prospective, non-comparative, interventional, observational pilot study of the safety and pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) tigecycline in conjunction with standard oral therapy in patients with known mild to severe confirmed Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD).
Cadazolid is a new antibiotic developed for the treatment of Clostridiun difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD), also known as Clostridium Difficile Infection (CDI). The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different doses of cadazolid in order to find the dose of cadazolid to be used for further clinical development of the compound in subjects with CDAD.
This is a comparative study to investigate the safety and efficacy of PAR-101/OPT-80 (fidaxomicin) versus vancomycin in subjects with Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD).
The purpose of this study is to assess the treatment and safety of a 10-day course of rifaximin (Xifaxan) as compared to vancomycin for treatment of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and perform preliminary clinical evaluation in patients with mild to moderate CDAD.
In this trial, eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive a single dose of 400 mg/kg of IVIG or a normal saline infusion as placebo over 4-6 hours, in addition to their usual medications for CDAD. We expect to enroll approximately 40 patients over a period of two years from UPMC Shadyside Hospital, McKeesport Hospital, and St. Margaret's Hospital who are unresponsive to standard antimicrobial therapy for CDAD. During the course of this study we expect that IVIG group compared with placebo group will have fewer number of stools per day (\< 3 per day). Secondary endpoints will include normal WBC count, normal body temperature, 75% reduction in abdominal pain / tenderness, and decrease in length of hospital stay. Subjects will sign a written informed consent prior to any study procedures. Patients will be monitored closely during the infusion of the study medication and will continue to be monitored on a daily basis up to the time of discharge. Data collection will include vital signs, CBC, stool C. difficile cytotoxin assay, and stool counts before and after therapy.
Segments 2A and 2B of this trial evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, fecal concentrations, and fecal microbiome effects of ACX-362E \[ibezapolstat\] in patients with C. difficile infection (CDI).
This study will assess the safety of a new biologic drug, RBX2660 (microbiota suspension) as a treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD), which is the primary symptom of recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. All eligible subjects will receive RBX2660.
Approximately 65 patients will be entered into this study taking place in North America. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and absorption of an investigational drug in patients with C. difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD). All study related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is 6 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dietary supplementation with Lactobacillus GG will reduce the rate of failure or relapse following treatment of CDAD with metronidazole.
Approximately 300 patients will be entered into this study taking place throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. This study aims to determine if an investigational drug is safe and effective for treating the symptoms of C. difficile-associated diarrhea and lowering the risk of repeat episodes of diarrhea. The investigational drug will be evaluated in comparison to current standard antibiotic treatment, so all patients will receive active medication. All study-related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is approximately 10 weeks.
Approximately 520 patients will be entered into this study taking place throughout the US and Canada. This study aims to determine if an investigational drug is safe and effective for treating symptoms of C. difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) and lowering the risk of repeat episodes of CDAD. The investigational drug will be evaluated in comparison to current standard antibiotic treatment, so all patients will receive active medication. All study related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is approximately 6 weeks.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of multiple daily dosing of oral LFF571 in patients who have moderate Clostridium difficile infections.
