A Study of GT267-004 Versus Vancomycin and GT267-004 Versus Metronidazole in Patients With C.Difficile - Associated Diarrhea

March 4, 2015 updated by: Genzyme, a Sanofi Company

A Randomized, Double-Blind Study of GT267-004 Versus Vancomycin, and GT267-004 Versus Metronidazole, in Patients With C.Difficile - Associated Diarrhea

Approximately 520 patients will be entered into this study taking place throughout the US and Canada. This study aims to determine if an investigational drug is safe and effective for treating symptoms of C. difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) and lowering the risk of repeat episodes of CDAD. The investigational drug will be evaluated in comparison to current standard antibiotic treatment, so all patients will receive active medication. All study related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is approximately 6 weeks.
