2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is the first prospective, multi-center, double-blinded, randomized controlled study of a microbiota suspension derived from intestinal microbes. Patients who have had at least two recurrences of C. difficile infection (CDI) after a primary episode and have completed at least two rounds of standard-of-care oral antibiotic therapy or have had at least two episodes of severe CDI resulting in hospitalization may be eligible for the study. Patients whose CDI returns in less than 8 weeks after the last assigned study treatment may be eligible to receive up to 2 treatments with RBX2660 in the open-label portion of the study.
The purpose of this study is to compare the outcome of treatment with nitazoxanide vs. vancomycin for diarrheal disease due to Clostridium difficile in patients who have failed previous treatment with metronidazole.
