If you experience any side effects, the study team will closely monitor your condition and provide appropriate medical care. You will be informed of potential side effects before the study begins.
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is a serious bacterial infection affecting the colon, often leading to severe diarrhea and intestinal inflammation. Highly contagious and challenging to manage, CDI significantly impacts patient health and healthcare systems. In the United States alone, CDI accounts for approximately 223,900 cases annually.
While recurrent infections are a major concern, innovative treatments are offering hope for better management. Hightower Clinical Research has been at the forefront, exploring the safety and efficacy of investigational drugs administered via colonoscopy to adults suffering from recurrent CDI.
