Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for the Prevention of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease in Adults Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This randomized placebo-controlled double-blind phase II trial tests whether fecal microorganism (microbiota) transplantation prevents severe acute graft versus host disease in adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Fecal microbiota transplantation involves receiving processed fecal material orally after allogeneic HCT in order to establish a healthy gut microbiota. Gut microbiota undergoes major alterations during allogeneic HCT because of antibiotic exposures, nutritional changes, and chemotherapy administration. Establishing a healthy gut microbiota via fecal transplantation may help prevent acute graft versus host disease in patients undergoing allogeneic HCT.
