Assessment of Quality of Life Among Patients With Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection Treated with Investigational Oral Microbiome Therapeutic SER-109 Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial

Kevin W. Garey et al.

Summary: This secondary analysis of a phase 3 clinical trial investigated the association of SER-109 with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). The study found that SER-109 was associated with significant improvements in HRQOL compared to placebo, indicating its potential as an important treatment option for CDI patients.

Robert Orenstein et al.

Summary: In this Phase 2 trial, RBX2660 was found to be safe and effective in reducing the recurrence of rCDI compared to a historical control group. Microbiome changes in participants treated with RBX2660 were consistent with protective changes against C. difficile recurrence.

Recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection worsens anxiety-related patient-reported quality of life

Richard L. Hengel et al.

Summary: This study conducted an HrQOL survey in US outpatient infusion centers to assess changes in HrQOL over time in CDI patients treated with bezlotoxumab. The results demonstrated that HrQOL worsened significantly in patients with further rCDI, indicating the usefulness of the Cdiff32 tool in assessing CDI-related humanistic outcomes.

The Contribution of Gut Microbiota-Brain Axis in the Development of Brain Disorders

Jessica Maiuolo et al.

Summary: This article explores the relationship between gut microbiota and neurological pathologies. Scientific studies have shown that the co-metabolism between microbiota and the host system is crucial for immune system organization, and that microbiota plays a significant role in the development, physiology, and cognitive functions of the brain. The alterations in gut microbiota have been closely associated with the onset of various neurological pathologies, suggesting that microbiota could be a valuable target for reducing or modulating the incidence of certain neurological diseases.

Risk Factors for Recurrence of Clostridioides difficile in Hospitalized Patients

Diaa Alrahmany et al.

Summary: This study analyzed data from 204 patients with C. difficile infection and found that factors such as female gender, older age, prior exposure to clindamycin, concurrent use of aztreonam, and longer hospital stay were associated with the occurrence of rCDI. These risk factors could help identify patients who may benefit from closer monitoring and interventions to prevent rCDI and improve clinical outcomes.
