Antibiotic Formulations Providing Reduced Gastrointestinal Side Effects and Clostridium difficile Infection Relapse, and Related Methods

The invention includes a formulation comprising: (i) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one antibiotic; and (ii) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one probiotic material. The formulation is prepared in a dosage form for delivery to the gastrointestinal tract. The invention further includes a method of preventing or minimizing the proliferation of Clostridium difficile in the gastrointestinal tract of a mammal undergoing an antibiotic therapy comprising by administration of the formulation of the invention for the duration of the antibiotic therapy; methods of preventing or minimizing the occurrence of antibiotic-associated diarrhea in a mammal undergoing an antibiotic therapy that includes administering the formulation; and methods of preventing or minimizing the occurrence of antibiotic-associated colitis or pseudomembranous colitis in a patient undergoing an antibiotic therapy that includes administering the formulation.Also included are methods of reducing or preventing a failure of treatment for an antibiotic-treatable infection in a patient comprising orally administering the formulation.Described by the invention are formulations for the treatment of a C. difficile infection comprising: (i) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one antibiotic; and (ii) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one probiotic material. The antibiotic includes a non-systemic gram negative antibiotic (such as, for example, fodaximicin) and formulation is prepared in a dosage form for delivery to the gastrointestinal tract.Also included are methods of treatment of a C. difficile infection in mammal that include administering to the digestive tract of the mammal the above described formulation. Such methods provide that the likelihood that the mammal shall experience a reoccurrence of the C. difficile infection is 70% or less.

Method of prevention and treatment of clostridium difficile infection

This invention relates to prophylactic and / or therapeutic application of microorganism species that are, for example, administered orally as delayed release formulation designed to release its microbial content to the distal small intestine and / or colon in high quantities and density, which is a “normalized” approach to repopulate the colonic flora as a method of prevention and / or treatment of, for example, Clostridium difficile colitis.

Medicine for restraining clostridium difficile thalli and/or restraining germination of clostridium difficile spores

PendingCN110478335APrevention and/or treatment of relapsePrevention and/or treatment of complicationsAntibacterial agentsHydroxy compound active ingredientsSporeClostridial infection
The invention provides an application of a compound as shown in the formula A to preparation of a medicine for restraining clostridium difficile thalli and / or restraining germination of clostridium difficile spores. R1 and R2 are independently selected from C1-3 alkyl group, C2-3 alkenyl and C2-3 alkynyl. Experiment proves that the compound as shown in the formula A, particularly magnolol and honokiol can notably restrain activity of clostridium difficile, can notably restrain germination of clostridium difficile spores, and has good application prospects for preparation of the medicine for preventing and / or treating clostridium difficile infection diseases, recurrence of clostridium difficile infection diseases, and complications of clostridium difficile infection diseases.

Compositions and methods for treating clostridium difficile infection

Clostridium difficile infection is the leading cause of hospital acquired antibiotic-associated diarrhea in the US (Bartlett, in 2006). The increased prevalence of circulating C. difficile strains poses a significant health threat to US health care facilities. Strains expressing the toxin C. difficile Transferase (CDT), in addition to Toxins A and B (TcdA and TcdB), are more virulent and are associated with higher mortality rates (Bacci et al., 2011). We recently identified a protective role for eosinophils against C. difficile pathogenesis (Buonomo et al., 2016). We have also defined CDT's ability to increase host inflammation and suppress protective eosinophils through a TLR2 dependent mechanism (Cowardin et al., 2016). How CDT promotes virulence and eosinophil suppression via TLR2 is still under investigation. We employed a genome-wide microarray approach to reveal divergent transcriptional profiles between protected (TLR2−/−) and unprotected (WT) mice infected with either CDT expressing or CDT mutant strains of C. difficile. This work revealed novel host mediated TLR2-dependent inflammatory pathways to CDT. We provide an unbiased framework for understanding the host immune response to the binary toxin CDT produced by C. difficile and how TLR2 signaling enhances virulence.

A new application of Thiopeptidecycline

ActiveCN105363018BUnique structureNew mechanism of actionAntibacterial agentsPowder deliveryClostridial infectionThiopeptin
The invention discloses the application of thiopeptidecycline in the preparation of medicines for treating Clostridium difficile infectious diseases and its complications. Thiopeptidecycline has significant activity against Clostridium difficile and its drug-resistant strains, and has important clinical application value. In vivo experiments have verified that the thiopeptidecycline does not enter the blood circulation after oral administration. In view of the characteristics of intestinal administration, the present invention also provides an oral preparation of the thiopeptidecycline containing a safe and effective dose and a preparation method thereof.
