About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Open-Label, Active-Controlled Clinical Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of SMT19969 (200mg BID) for 10 Days Compared With Fidaxomicin (200 mg BID) for 10 Days for the Treatment of Clostridium Difficile Infection (CDI)

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Ridinilazole (SMT19969) in treating C. difficile Infection (CDI).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) to evaluate safety and tolerability

    Measured: 30 days post End of Therapy

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To assess the pharmacokinetics of SMT19969 in patients with CDI by measuring the plasma, urine and fecal concentrations of SMT19969

    Measured: 12 days

  2. To assess the qualitative and quantitative effect on the bowel flora of each subject using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing, metagenomics and bioinformatic techniques

    Measured: 40 days

  3. Measure clinical cure rates at the Test of Cure (TOC) visit

    Investigator assessed clinical response at the TOC visit (on day 12) with clinical cure defined as the resolution of diarrhoea (≤ 3 Unformed Bowel Movements (UBMs) per day) while on treatment that is maintained until the TOC visit.

    Measured: 12 days

  4. Measure sustained clinical response (SCR) rates

    SCR is defined as clinical cure at TOC and no recurrence of CDI within 30 days post end of treatment (EOT).

    Measured: 40 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ridinilazole and Fidaxomicin in people with Clostridium Difficile Infection, run by Summit Therapeutics at 16 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 7 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 12 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United Kingdom, United States, Czechia. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) to evaluate safety and tolerability (time frame: 30 days post End of Therapy). 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 12 Oct 2017.
