| E.2 Objective of the trial |
| E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Assess the impact of a five day course of oral colistin and neomycin followed by fecal microbiota transplantation compared to no intervention on detectable intestinal carriage (by stool culture) of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing
and / or carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae 35-48 days after randomization |
|
| E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- Assess the impact of a five day course of oral colistin and
neomycin followed by FMT compared to no intervention
on the susceptibility to colistin of ESBL-E and CRE
- Assess the safety and tolerability of a five day course of oral colistin and neomycin followed by FMT for eradication of intestinal ESBL-E and CRE carriage
- Assess the impact of a five day course of oral colistin and neomycin followed by FMT compared to no intervention on the intestinal microbiome and resistome over time
- Assess the impact of a five day course of oral colistin and neomycin followed by FMT compared to no intervention on the incidence of clinical infections with ESBL-E and
CRE over the entire study period
- Assess the impact of a five day course of oral colistin and
neomycin followed by FMT compared to no intervention
on systemic antibiotic use between both study groups
- Assess the stability of the microbiome of donor stools after
3, 6, 12 , and 24 months of frozen storage |
|
