Who can join
Adults 18 to 45, any sex, with Clostridioides Difficile Infection. Healthy volunteers can join.
What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Safety and tolerability of colonisation with non-toxigenic C.difficile
Time frame: During the first month after ingestion of NTCD spores.
Number and grade of related adverse events from day 1 to 28 after ingestion of NTCD spores. -
To establish the effective protocol to obtain colonisation with non-toxigenic C. difficile in the majority of subjects.
Time frame: During the first month after ingestion of NTCD spores.
The number of volunteers successfully colonised with non-toxigenic C.difficile. Colonisation is defined as a positive PCR for C.difficile on stool or a positive culture for C.difficile on at least two timepoints between three days and two weeks after the last exposure day.
Sponsor's own description
This study will investigate experimental colonisation with non-toxigenic C.difficile (NTCD) in healthy volunteers. Main outcomes will be safety, tolerability, dose needed to obtain colonisation with NTCD to ultimately determine host microbiota factors associated with susceptibility to colonisation.
