A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of a Single Infusion of MK-6072 (Human Monoclonal Antibody to Clostridium Difficile Toxin B), and MK-3415A (Human Monoclonal Antibodies to Clostridium Difficile Toxin A and B) in Patients Receiving Antibiotic Therapy for Clostridium Difficile Infection (MODIFY II)
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating MK-6072, MK-3415A, and 2 other interventions for Clostridium Difficile Infection. Completed, enrolled 1,203 participants.
Detailed Summary
MK-3415A is the combination of monoclonal antibodies to Clostridium (C.) difficile toxin A (MK-3415) and toxin B (MK-6072). This study will investigate whether: 1) treatment with MK-6072 or MK-3415A in addition to standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy will decrease Clostridium Difficile Infection (CDI) recurrence compared with placebo; and 2) MK-6072 and MK-3415A will be generally well tolerated in participants receiving SOC therapy for CDI compared with placebo.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Single IV infusion of MK-6072 (10 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody to C. difficile Toxin B)
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)
Single IV infusion of normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride)
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.
