RESTORATiVE303

Vedanta is currently enrolling participants into a Phase 3 study of VE303 for patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI).

RESTORATiVE303 is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a 14-day course of VE303. The efficacy of VE303 will be assessed by comparing the Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) recurrence rate at Week 8 in study participants who receive VE303 and those who receive placebo.

Trial overview:

  • VE303 is administered in oral capsules
  • Each capsule contains 8 well-characterized commensal bacterial strains that are grown from pure clonal cell banks

Stage 1

  • Stage 1 of the study is targeting enrollment of 420 people, age 12 years and older, in more than 20 countries.
  • For those who meet all eligibility criteria and choose to enroll, participation in the study will last 24 weeks.
  • Participants must have:
    • Recent onset of diarrhea and a laboratory-confirmed diagnosis of rCDI, and
    • At least 1 prior episode of CDI within the last 6 months
  • Study participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups in a 2:1 ratio.
  • Participants who experience an on-study CDI recurrence will have the option to receive an open-label course of treatment with VE303 for 14 days.

Stage 2

Stage 2 is not yet open for enrollment

  • Stage 2 will enroll participants with primary CDI who are at high risk of developing a recurrence.

Previous VE303 trials

In the CONSORTIUM study, a randomized, double-blind, Phase 2 trial in patients at high risk of CDI recurrence, VE303 met its primary efficacy endpoint of preventing CDI recurrence at Week 8. Administration of VE303 was associated with a CDI recurrence rate of 13.8% compared with 45.5% for placebo, which represents a greater than 80% reduction in the odds of a CDI recurrence.

Additionally, VE303 was observed to be generally well-tolerated; none of the serious treatment-emergent adverse events was determined to be related to the study drug.

VE303 for Recurrent

C. difficile Infection

Our lead GI infectious disease program, VE303, is an orally-administered defined bacterial consortium candidate consisting of eight strains of live commensal bacteria for the prevention of rCDI. We believe that our Phase 2 results for VE303 represent potential best-in-disease activity, and that VE303 could become the first Live Biotherapeutic Product (LBP) to be approved in any indication.
