Design outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 2a. Negative Clostridium difficile test 7 days after finishing treatment 2b. Treatment effect at 26 weeks;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2a. 17 days 2b. 28 weeks

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Compare 8-week cure rates from relapsing Clostridium difficile colitis following one of three treatments: 1) capsule vancomycin 125 mg 4 times daily 10 days + faecal microbiota transplantation 2) tablet fidamoxicin 200 mg twice daily 10 days 3) capsule vancomycin 125 mg 4 times daily 10 days;Secondary Objective: Within each treatment arm, describe need for rescue faecal microbiota transplantation, quality of life, cure at 26 weeks;Primary end point(s): 1a. Treatment effect, defined as both clinical effect (absence of abdominal pain and less than 3 bowel movements per day and a stool consistency of Bristol 5 or lower, corresponding to absence of diarhhoea) and microbiological effect (negative Clostridium difficile test) 8 weeks after finishing allocated treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 8 weeks after finishing allocated treatment (10 weeks after randomisation)
