| NCT02218372 | A Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Fidaxomicin (Oral Suspension or Tablets) and Vancomycin (Oral Liquid or Capsules) in Pediatric Subjects With Clostridium Difficile-associated Diarrhea (CDAD) | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 148 | — | — | Jan 9, 2015 | Mar 7, 2018 | Nov 26, 2024 | 44 | United States, Belgium +8 |
| NCT01691248 | Safety and Efficacy of Fidaxomicin Versus Placebo for Prophylaxis Against Clostridium Difficile-Associated Diarrhea in Adults Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (MK-5119-001) | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 611 | — | — | Oct 10, 2012 | Apr 16, 2015 | Sep 18, 2018 | - | — |
Initial clinical response (ICR) for ages from birth to \< 2 years was defined as absence of watery diarrhea for 2 consecutive treatment days, remaining well until study drug discontinuation. ICR for ages ≥ 2 years to \< 18 years was defined as improvement in number and character of bowel movements as determined by \< 3 unformed bowel movements (UBMs) per day for 2 consecutive treatment days, remaining well until study drug discontinuation. CCR was defined for both age groups as not requiring further CDAD therapy within 2 days after study drug completion, and was reported with a positive (Yes) or negative (No) outcome. Resolution of diarrhea was assessed during interviews of participant/parent/legal guardian, supplemented by review of personal records (if hospitalized) and checked for presence of watery diarrhea (ages from birth to \< 2 years) or number of UBMs (for ages ≥ 2 years to \< 18 years).
CDAD is defined as follows: Diarrhea: (change in bowel habits with \>3 unformed bowel movements in a 24 hour period) and the presence of either toxin A and/or B (or their respective genes, tcdA and/or tcdB) of C. difficile in the stool determined by C. difficile toxin assay. Wald 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) are presented.

Participants aged ≥ 6 years to \< 18 years of age received a 200 mg fidaxomicin tablet 2 times daily for 10 days. |
| Vancomycin | ACTIVE_COMPARATOR | Participants from birth to \< 6 years of age received weight based doses of vancomycin oral liquid (40 mg/kg/day with a maximum dose of 500 mg/day divided in 4 doses) 4 times daily for 10 days. Participants aged ≥ 6 years to \< 18 years of age received a 125 mg vancomycin capsule 4 times daily for 10 days. |
| Placebo | PLACEBO_COMPARATOR | Placebo tablet once daily for no longer than 40 days |

| Fidaxomicin oral suspension | DRUG | Participants from birth to \< 6 years of age received weight based doses of fidaxomicin oral suspension (32 mg/kg/day with a maximum dose of 400 mg/day divided in 2 doses) 2 times daily for 10 days. |
| Fidaxomicin tablets | DRUG | Participants aged ≥ 6 years to \< 18 years of age received a 200 mg fidaxomicin tablet 2 times daily for 10 days. |
| Vancomycin oral liquid | DRUG | Participants from birth to \< 6 years of age received weight based doses of vancomycin oral liquid (40 mg/kg/day with a maximum dose of 500 mg/day divided in 4 doses) 4 times daily for 10 days. |
| Vancomycin capsules | DRUG | Participants aged ≥ 6 years to \< 18 years of age received a 125 mg vancomycin capsule 4 times daily for 10 days. |
| fidaxomicin | DRUG | Fidaxomicin 200 mg tablet once daily from the start (+/- 2 days) of condition (prior to transplantation) or at the time of Fluoroquinolone initiation. Study drug treatment will continue until 7 days after either neutrophil engraftment or the completion of any Fluoroquinolone antibiotic regimen (whichever occurs later). Study drug treatment will stop at onset of CDAD or no longer than 40 days of duration, even if other antibiotics are still administered or neutrophil engraftment extends beyond 40 days. |
| Placebo | DRUG | Placebo tablet once daily from the start (+/- 2 days) of condition (prior to transplantation) or at the time of Fluoroquinolone initiation. Treatment will continue until 7 days after either neutrophil engraftment or the completion of any Fluoroquinolone antibiotic regimen (whichever occurs later). Treatment will stop at onset of CDAD or no longer than 40 days of duration, even if other antibiotics are still administered or neutrophil engraftment extends beyond 40 days. |
Inclusion Criteria: * Subject is diagnosed with CDAD according to local diagnostic criteria. As a minimum there must be positive detection, within 72 hours prior to randomization, of either toxin A and/or toxin B in stool or positive detection of toxigenic C. difficile in stool and: * Subject fr...
