1042. Safety of Investigational Microbiota-Based Live Biotherapeutic RBX2660 in Individuals with Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection: Data from Five Prospective Clinical Studies

Abstract Background Microbiota-based treatments have shown promise to reduce recurrence, morbidity, and mortality for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infections (rCDI), but consistent and reliable safety data are needed to support regulatory approvals and broaden patient access. Here we provide cumulative safety data from 5 prospective clinical studies evaluating RBX2660—a standardized, microbiota-based investigational live biotherapeutic—for reducing rCDI. Methods This analysis included three Phase 2 (PUNCH CD, PUNCH CD2, PUNCH CD Open Label) and two Phase 3 trials (PUNCH CD3, PUNCH CD3-OLS ad hoc analysis). Participants were ≥18 years old with documented rCDI who completed standard-of-care oral antibiotic therapy prior to treatment with RBX2660. PUNCH CD3-OLS allowed participants with comorbidities of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Depending on the trial, assigned study treatment was 1 or 2 doses of RBX2660 (or placebo), administered rectally. Participants whose CDI recurred within 8 weeks were eligible for additional RBX2660 treatment. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were recorded for at least 6 months following last study treatment; CD2 and CD Open Label recorded TEAEs for 24 months. Results Among 620 participants who received at least one RBX2660 dose (assigned treatment or after recurrence), 324 (52.3%) received 1, 270 (43.5%) received 2, 14 (2.3%) received 3, and 12 (1.9%) received 4. 83 participants received blinded placebo only. A total of 1980 TEAEs were reported from 432 (69.7%) RBX2660-treated participants, compared to 174 TEAEs in 50 (60.2%) placebo-only treated participants. Most TEAEs were mild or moderate in severity, with diarrhea common in all treatment groups. No potentially life-threatening TEAEs were considered related to RBX2660. Study discontinuation due to TEAEs was minimal (< 1%) with none related to RBX2660. There were no reported infections for which the causative pathogen was traced to RBX2660. Conclusion Across five clinical studies with consistent investigational product, RBX2660 was well-tolerated in rCDI participants. In aggregate, this data provides compelling and consistent safety data for RBX2660.
