What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bacterial Elimination Rate (BER) in the CDI and EI Groups

    Judged according to the assessment criteria for the bacterial strain isolated as the causative pathogen based on the data from the microbiological examination. Analysis was performed by disease group and by dose, and by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of OPS-2071 for each of the causative strains (Enterotoxigenic E. coli, Enteroaggregative E. coli, Campylobacter sp., C. jejuni, S. aureus, K. oxytoca, and C. perfringens for the EI group). Data were shown as all strains total.

    Concerning microbiological outcome by causative strain, bacteria elimination rate (BER) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. The BER was the proportion of causative strains assessed as either "Excellent" or "Good" except for those assessed as "unknown/indeterminate".

    Measured: CDI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 11 (end of treatment), EI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

  2. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of OPS-2071 on Day 4

    We measured OPS-2071 concentration in plasma and evaluated Cmax of OPS-2071 in plasma.

    Measured: Inpatient: 1h, 2h, and 4h after morning administration

  3. Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of OPS-2071 on Day 4

    We measured OPS-2071 concentration in plasma and evaluated tmax of OPS-2071 in plasma.

    Measured: 1h, 2h, and 4h after morning administration

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The Recurrence Rate of CDI After Multiple Doses of OPS-2071 (for CDI Group Only)

    CDI recurrence rate at follow-up (Day 38) or withdrawal was calculated. CDI recurrence rate was the proportion of the subjects judged as "recurrent" against evaluable subjects, except for those with missing data.

    Measured: Day 38

  2. The Time to Resolution of Diarrhea After Multiple Doses of OPS-2071

    The time from the start of dosing until the first formed stool (except in cases where liquid or unformed stools recurred) was evaluated as time to resolution of diarrhea. If formed stool has not been observed, then the subject will be handled as missing data.

    Measured: CDI group: Day 4, Day 11 (end of treatment) and Day 38, EI group: Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

  3. Stool Frequency Per Day After Multiple Doses of OPS-2071

    Under each disease group, the improvement of clinical symptoms (stool frequency/day) were assessed.

    Measured: CDI group: screening, Day 4, Day 11 (end of treatment) and Day 38, EI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

  4. Number of Subjects With Formed Stool, Liquid or Unformed Stool, and Bloody Stool After Multiple Doses of OPS-2071

    Under each disease group, the improvement of clinical symptoms ((i.e. formed stool, liquid or unformed stool [3 and more times], and presence of bloody stool) were assessed.

    Measured: CDI group: screening, Day 4, Day 11 (end of treatment) and Day 38, EI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

  5. Number of Subjects With Abdominal Pain, Nausea, and Vomiting After Multiple Doses of OPS-2071

    Under each disease group, he improvement of clinical symptoms (i.e. presence of abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting) were assessed.

    Measured: CDI group: screening, Day 4, Day 11 (end of treatment) and Day 38, EI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

  6. Clinical Response Rate (CRR) in the CDI and EI Groups

    The CRR and 95% CI at each evaluation time point were calculated. The CRR was calculated as the proportion of the subjects judged as "clinical cure" or "clinical improvement" against evaluable subjects, except for those with missing data.

    Measured: CDI group: Day 4 and Day 11 (end of treatment), EI group: Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing OPS-2071 tablet in people with Bacterial Enteritis, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 3 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Japan, Singapore, South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Mar 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bacterial Elimination Rate (BER) in the CDI and EI Groups (time frame: CDI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 11 (end of treatment), EI group: screening, Day 4 and Day 8 (end of treatment)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2021.
