Popis: NTCD-M3 is a novel live biotherapeutic, that has been shown in a Phase 2 clinical trial to prevent recurrence of C. difficile infection (CDI) when administered shortly after antibiotic treatment of the initial CDI episode. Fidaxomicin was not, however, in widespread use at the time this study was conducted.
