Abstract
Among 23 patients with multiply recurrent Clostridiodies difficile infection (mrCDI) who received bezlotoxumab at the end of antibiotic treatment a sustained clinical response of 91 % at 30 days and 78 % at 90 days was achieved. Bezlotoxumab administered at the end of antibiotic treatment was effective in patients with mrCDI.
