Study Summary

Multi-center, randomized, placebo controlled, partially blinded trial comparing the safety and efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation versus placebo both delivered by rectal enema in subjects 18 years of age or older with recurrent Clostridium difficile Associated Disease (CDAD). 162 male or female subjects will be enrolled in the study. Enrolled subjects will be randomized at each site to receive either FMT by enema or placebo by enema in a 2:1 ratio. Study duration is 3 years, subject participation duration is approximately 1 year. The primary study objectives are: 1) to evaluate the safety of FMT(s) delivered by enema vs. placebo delivered by enema and 2) to determine efficacy of FMT delivered by enema vs. placebo delivered by enema.

Primary Outcome

New onset of related chronic medical conditions (NOCMCs) through 365 days after completing treatment for recurrent CDAD were reported. NOCMCs were defined as any new ICD-10 diagnosis that is applied to the participant during the duration of the study, after receipt of the study agent, that is expected to continue for at least 3 months and requires continued health care intervention.
