| NCT01513239 | A Study of MK-6072 and MK-3415A in Participants Receiving Antibiotic Therapy for Clostridium Difficile Infection (MK-3415A-002) | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 1,203 | — | — | Feb 1, 2012 | May 22, 2015 | Sep 5, 2018 | - | — |
CDI recurrence is defined as the development of a new episode of diarrhea (3 or more loose stools in 24 or fewer hours) and a positive lab stool test (local or central) for toxigenic C. difficile after clinical cure of the initial CDI episode. Clinical cure is defined as no diarrhea \[2 or fewer loose stools per 24 hours\] for 2 consecutive days following completion of SOC therapy for the initial CDI episode in participants who received =\< 14 day regimen.
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the medicinal product, is also an adverse event.

Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the medicinal product, is also an adverse event. A drug-related adverse event is determined by the investigator to be related to the drug.
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any AE occurring at any dose or during any use of the medicinal product that results in death; or is life threatening; or results in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization; or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or other important medical events. A serious drug-related adverse event is determined by the investigator to be related to the drug.

| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MK-6072 | BIOLOGICAL | Single IV infusion of MK-6072 (10 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody to C. difficile Toxin B) |
| MK-3415A | BIOLOGICAL | Single IV infusion of MK-3415A (10 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody to C. difficile Toxin A and 10 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody to C. difficile Toxin B) |

| SOC | DRUG | SOC for CDI will be prescribed for 10 to 14 days and can begin on the day of study drug infusion; but the first dose must have been administered prior to or within a few hours following study drug infusion. SOC is defined as the receipt of oral metronidazole, oral vancomycin, IV metronidazole concurrent with oral vancomycin, oral fidaxomicin, or oral fidaxomicin concurrent with IV metronidazole. |
Inclusion Criteria: * Participant has a diagnosis of CDI defined as: a) presence of diarrhea (passage of 3 or more loose stools in 24 or fewer hours); and b) positive test for toxigenic C. difficile from a stool collected no more than 7 days before study infusion. * Participant is receiving SOC the...
