Virus treatment for recurring C. difficile infection
Treatments studied
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests using a virus to fight a recurring C. difficile infection, instead of antibiotics. If your infection keeps coming back, this approach may help reset your gut health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had C. difficile infection come back at least once before.
- You can speak and understand Danish.
- You do not have a serious food allergy (like anaphylaxis).
- You do not have other harmful bacteria or viruses in your gut right now.
- You are not pregnant and not planning pregnancy.

This trial studies using a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)—healthy gut bacteria moved from a screened donor—to help treat recurring or hard-to-control C. difficile infection. It may help restore a healthier gut environment when standard treatments keep failing or the infection returns.
This trial studies whether fecal microbiota transplantation (a procedure that transfers healthy stool bacteria) can change a person’s gut bacteria after repeated C. difficile infection. It may help reduce recurring infections by restoring a healthier balance of gut microbes.
This trial tests if capsules containing fecal microbiota can prevent further Clostridioides difficile infections in people who have had at least two recurrences. If you've had multiple C. diff infections and your symptoms go away with antibiotics, this treatment might help keep them from coming back.
This Phase 1 study tests defined fecal microbiota (healthy gut bacteria) given to people with C. difficile diarrhea that didn’t go away or came back soon after antibiotics. It may help by restoring a healthier balance of gut bacteria so the infection can stop recurring.
This study tests whether taking a capsule form of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) can help adults with their first C. difficile infection—or a first relapse—get better and reduce repeat episodes. Participants also take specific antibiotics for C. difficile as part of the study process.
This Phase 1 study tests whether transferring healthy gut bacteria (a fecal microbiome transplant) can help children with repeated or moderate-to-severe C. difficile infection. It focuses on changing gut bacteria to reduce ongoing infection and symptoms.
