responsible for multiple physiologic functions
• Composed of bacteriaComposed of bacteria, archaea, fungi, viruses

CDI: What is the problem?
• In 2010, the yearly incidence of CDI was estimated at 500,000, with a mortality at 15,000 –20,000.
• Increasing rates of colectomy and mortality• Increasing rates of colectomy and mortality
• Cost of managing CDI is estimated to be at least $1 billion dollars annually in the U.S. alone.
• Recurrence rates after initial episode are approximately 10-20%.
At l t 65% f ti t h h

• At least 65% of patients who have one recurrence of CDI will likely have recurrent CDI after antibiotics are completed.

Recurrent CDI (rCDI): Recurrent infection within 8 weeks of completion of therapy
• Impaired host immune response or alteration of the colonic microbiotacolonic microbiota
• No uniform effective therapy
• Recurrence rates after initial episode: 10-20%
• At least 40-65% of patients who have one recurrence of CDI will likely have recurrent CDI yafter antibiotics are completed
• 1st recurrence: same regimen for the initial episode can be used
2nd recurrence: pulsed vancomycin regimen
Recurrent CDI: How to treat it?
• 2nd recurrence: pulsed vancomycin regimen
• Fidaxomicin: role in rCDI is not well established
• IVIG: role in rCDI unclear, retrospective data equivocal. There may be some benefit in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia. Immunologist
l tievaluation
• Rifampin or rifaximin (“rifaximin chaser”): limited data to support efficacy. No current role in rCDI.

• Single-arm, open-label clinical trial
• About 30 capsules, divided in 2 consecutive days.
• Preliminary data from the trial demonstrates the the response of rCDI in 29 of the 30 patients enrolled and no recurrences to date.
• Larger clinical trial planned for later 2014-5.

Summary
• rCDI is the best understood condition between host and disease
• FMT has been promising in restoring the healthy gut microbiome and treating rCDI.
• FMT may have other implications in treating other diseases such as obesity and IBD, but to date not enough data to support its role in these scenarios.
• Only FDA indication for FMT were enforcement discretion is applied is for rCDI

FMT for chronic constipation
• Bacterial species inhibit motility by secretion of toxins
• 3 patients with CC; one month after FMT all patients had daily or qod bowel movements.
• Consecutive 45 patients with CC treated with liquid culture of non-pathogenic bacteria.
• 40/45 (89%) of patients obtained relief in d f tidefecation
• At follow-up: 18/30 (60%) continued to have normal defecation without laxative use.
