简要总结
Double blind RCT study of tretment of recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection by FMT capsules.
详细描述
The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of fecal capsules in the treatment of recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection in a double-blind RCT. The study will also investigate whether stool antigen testing or accurate clinical information on risk factors can identify patients who would benefit most from fecal transplantation. The study will include 76 patients who have had recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of patients with recurrence of Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI), defined as positive fecal Clostridioides difficile nucleinic acid measurement and diarrhea after Fecal Microbiota transplantation (FMT) within 12 weeks after FMT.
时间窗: The investigators evaluate the number of patietns who get rCDI within 12 weeks after FMT (Placebo or active FMT).
The investigators compare the number of patients with rCDI in different groups (placebo vs active FMT group) evaluated by Clostridioides difficile nucleinic acid measurement.
次要结局
- Number of patients with side effects after FMT capsules.(One, four and twelve weeks after FMT (placebo or active FMT).)
