Effects of Intravenous (IV) Omadacycline on Gut Microbiome

Given the clinical need to improve upon current antibiotic regimens for the treatment of C. difficile infection with a particular focus on the impact of therapies on gut microbiome, this study proposes to characterize the impact of Intravenous (IV) omadacycline on gut microbiome of healthy volunteers.

About this study

The plan to enroll eight healthy volunteers between the ages of 18 and 40 years and without history of cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, hepatic, or renal disease to receive 5 days of intravenous omadacycline followed by 5 days of oral omadacycline. Stool and saliva samples will be collected at pre-specified times and analyzed to characterize the impact of IV omadacycline on gut microbiome.

Primary outcomes

  1. Phylum Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 30

    In general, the healthy volunteer analyses will assess changes in total and species-specific microbiota over time as well as changes in microbial diversity.

  2. Phylum Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Baseline

    In general, the healthy volunteer analyses will assess changes in total and species-specific microbiota over time as well as changes in microbial diversity.

  3. Phylum Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 5

    In general, the healthy volunteer analyses will assess changes in total and species-specific microbiota over time as well as changes in microbial diversity.

  4. Phylum Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 10

    In general, the healthy volunteer analyses will assess changes in total and species-specific microbiota over time as well as changes in microbial diversity.

  5. Bacterial DNA Per Gram of Stool

    Time frame: Baseline

    nanograms (ng) per gram of stool for bacterial DNA

  6. Bacterial DNA Per Gram of Stool

    Time frame: During Therapy up to Day 6

    nanograms (ng) per gram of stool for bacterial DNA

  7. Bacterial DNA Per Gram of Stool

    Time frame: End of Therapy up to Day 10

    nanograms (ng) per gram of stool for bacterial DNA

  8. Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Baseline

    Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance - Relative abundance % for order

  9. Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 5

    Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance - Relative abundance % for order

  10. Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 10

    Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance - Relative abundance % for order

  11. Order Level Mean Proportional Relative Abundance

    Time frame: Day 30
