A randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled study of LMN-201 for prevention of C. difficile infection recurrence (RePreve)
Recruiting
This study is recruiting people who have developed an infection of the lower intestine (the colon) by bacteria called Clostridioides difficile (abbreviated C. difficile or C. diff). The standard treatment for this infection is with antibiotics, but in some people, the infection keeps coming back. The purpose of this research is to test whether an investigational drug can prevent a return of the infection. We want to make sure LMN-201 is safe when used as part of standard of care for C. diff, and we want to see if we can improve treatment and reduce re-infection.
