ETH NO. 22210 Toxin Inhibitors for the Treatment of Clostridium difficile Infection A thesis submitted to attain the degree of DOCTOR OF SCIENCES of ETH ZURICH (Dr. sc. ETH Zurich) presented by Mattias Emanuel IVARSSON MSc in Biomedical Engineering, ETH Zurich born on 10.3.1987 citizen of Zurich, Switzerland accepted on the recommendation of Prof. Jean-Christophe Leroux, examiner Prof. Bastien Castagner, co-examiner Prof. Wolf-Dietrich Hardt, co-examiner 2014 Abstract Clostridium difficile is a bacterial pathogen causing life-threatening infections that are the leading cause of hospital-acquired diarrhea. Recommended treatments for C. difficile infection (CDI) are limited to three antibiotics, which have unsatisfactory cure rates and lead to unacceptably high recurrence. The aim of the doctoral work presented herein was to explore the development of two novel therapeutic approaches against CDI. A variety of innovative therapeutic and prophylactic options against CDI are currently already in clinical trials, ranging from intestinal microbiota regeneration therapies to vaccines. These are presented and discussed in Chapter 1 of this thesis. Protein toxins constitute the main virulence factors of several species of bacteria and have proven to be attractive targets for drug development. Lead candidates that target bacterial toxins range from small molecules to polymeric binders, and act at each of the multiple steps in the process of toxin- mediated pathogenicity.
