Safety and Efficacy Study of DAV132 in Healthy Volunteers

The proposed study, DAV132-CL-1002, is to evaluate performances of DAV132 in healthy volunteers:

• To capture residual concentration of antibiotics in colon without interfering with their systemic pharmacokinetics parameters.
• To explore the influence of DAV132 to prevent the modification of gut flora due to antibiotic.

In addition, the security and acceptability of DAV132 used during 7 days will be evaluated.

The proposed study is prospective, randomized, controlled, four parallel groups, repeated doses, open-label study blinded to analytical and microbiological evaluations.
