Cost-effectiveness analysis of fidaxomicin versus vancomycin in Clostridium difficile infection [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Fidaxomicin was non-inferior to vancomycin with respect to clinical cure rates in the treatment of Clostridium difficile infections (CDIs) in two Phase III trials, but was associated with significantly fewer recurrences than vancomycin.

Antimicrobial Activities of Fidaxomicin [PDF]
Fidaxomicin is bactericidal against Clostridium difficile. The combined results of 8 in vitro studies of 1323 C. difficile isolates showed the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) range of fidaxomicin to be ≤ 0.001-1 μg/mL, with a maximum MIC for inhibition of 90% of organisms (MIC(90)) of 0.5 μg/mL.
