The effects of serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate (SBI) will be evaluated and compared to matching placebo in two distinct patient populations:
I. Hospitalized ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who tested positive for Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) at time of admission and are receiving vancomycin.
II. Hospitalized UC patients who tested negative for C. difficile at time of admission.

I. Hospitalized ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who tested positive for Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) at time of admission and are receiving vancomycin.
Primary Objective:
• To evaluate the effect of SBI on time (# of days) to resolution of diarrhea, defined as a consecutive 24 hour period with only formed bowel movements (Bristol Stool Scale (BSS) ≤ 4) in this patient population

| Time (# of days) to resolution of diarrhea | Group 1 & Group 2 subjects: Stool consistency will be assessed using the BSS. Subjects will be provided a daily diary A to record the time and consistency of each bowel movement in a 24 hour period. At the Week 4 visit, the Investigator will calculate the time (# of days) to resolution of diarrhea, defined as a consecutive 24 hour period with only formed bowel movements (BSS ≤ 4), after initiation of investigational product (Day 1). | 12 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of recurrent CDI | Group I subjects: if subject develops diarrhea (≥ 3 unformed stools in 24h period) at any point following successful treatment with vancomycin. The presence of C. difficile will be determined by PCR or GDH/Toxin EIA. | 12 weeks |

Group II subjects: Incidence of C. difficile will be determined following 12 weeks of investigational product. Symptoms will be assessed by daily diary and by P SCCAI at each study visit. Should the subject develop diarrhea (≥ 3 unformed stools in 24h period) at any point during the study participation, he/she will return to the clinic and be tested for C. difficile by PCR or GDH/Toxin EIA. |
