Summary

Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs) associated with healthcare settings and are a high priority for containment in public health. Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) like VRE and CRE lengthen the duration of a hospital stay, increase the cost of hospitalization, and increase mortality. Because colonization precedes infection, prevention or treatment of VRE/CRE colonization is essential. We propose a treatment approach to promote gut decolonization by VRE and CRE without using antibiotics. Participants enrolled in this study will be randomized a one-time dose of either study drug or placebo, will be followed for 6 months, and will submit stool samples for analysis of several outcomes for the trial.
