NCT ID NCT06794944
First seen Nov 03, 2025 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study compares two antibiotics, fidaxomicin and vancomycin, to see which one is better at clearing C. difficile bacteria from the gut in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). About 60 adults with IBD will take one of the two antibiotics for 10 days, and researchers will check stool samples over 26 weeks to see if the infection stays gone. The goal is to find a more effective way to prevent C. diff from coming back in IBD patients.
