108 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
A national data registry of patients receiving fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) or other gut-related-microbiota products designed to prospectively assess short and long-term safety and effectiveness. Neonates will not be enrolled at any site for this study. The study data will derive from patient and donors past and present medical records, research records, and records about phone calls made as part of this research. The patient data will also be used from the records on visits.
To find out if adding treatment with fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is effective at treating gut-related side effects of antibiotic treatment in participants who are receiving standard therapy with anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T cell) therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT) by oral capsule in people already diagnosed with auto-brewery syndrome (ABS, also known as gut fermentation syndrome). The main question it aims to answer: Is FMT safe and feasible in this syndrome? Participants will 1. have a "gut cleanout" with oral antibiotics and a colon cleanse, similar to that administered before colonoscopy 2. receive five oral doses of fecal transplant capsules over a week 3. be followed for six months for safety and research samples
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.
The purpose of this research study is to assess the safety and efficacy of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) in the treatment of chronic pouchitis.
Recurrent Clostridioides difficle infection (rCDI) is a very significant problem in its own right and current fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) -based therapeutics will benefit from their optimization for this indication. It is likely that appropriate nutritional support coupled with microbiota-based drugs will yield superior clinical outcomes. However, both diet and gut microbiome are very complex. This project, which is based on a wealth of FMT experience, both clinical and investigational, over the past decade along with the novel techniques developed to identify dietary patterns and food groups that explain the most variation in gut microbiome, offers an ideal platform for performing systematic research in nutritional support that promotes gut microbiota health. The purpose is to Generate preliminary data with regards to tolerability of the Microbiota enhancing and nourishing diet (MEND) and its effects on the fecal microbiota in rCDI patients following FMT with the goal of developing larger clinical trials aimed to optimize post-FMT dietary management.
The study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of frozen FMT delivery via retention enema compared to lyophilized powder given in oral capsules as induction FMT in subjects with active UC. This study will also determine changes in microbiome (diversity and genera) and proportion of antibody-coated microbiota from baseline to after completion of FMT.
The purpose of this study is to learn the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) using stool from a donor with low proteolytic activity and containing the bacteria Alistipes putredinis in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and high proteolytic activity. Proteolytic activity is the breakdown of proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids.
The study participant is being asked to take part in this clinical trial, a type of research study, because the participant has Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms following a Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT). Primary Objective * To determine the safety and feasibility of FMT for treating a GvHD of the gut following HCT. * To determine the safety and feasibility of FMT for treating HCT induced gut dysfunction. Secondary Objectives * To assess the potential efficacy of FMT for treating a GvHD of the gut following HCT. * To assess the potential efficacy of FMT for treating HCT induced gut dysfunction.
The purpose of this study is to measure the impact of Microbial Transplant Therapy (MTT) on 24-hour urine parameters in recurrent hypercalciuric and hyperoxaluric kidney stone formers.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) weakens the body's defense against germs. CGD can also damage the colon. It can cause inflammation (colitis) that disrupts the good bacteria. Placing good bacteria from donor stool into the intestine of a person with CGD (called fecal microbiota transplantation, or FMT) may help. Objective: To see if FMT can reduce inflammation in the colon. Eligibility: People aged 10-60 who have CGD and colitis, and the treatments they have tried are not helping or have side effects. Design: Participants will have a telehealth screening visit. They will have a medical record review and medical history. They will collect stool samples at home and mail them to NIH. Participants will stay at the NIH hospital for 3-5 days. Each day, they will have the following: Physical exam Medical history and medicine review Surveys about CGD and how it affects their life Blood, stool, and urine tests Participants will have a colonoscopy. They will be sedated. A long, flexible tube will be inserted into their rectum. The tube will deliver the FMT material to their colon. Small samples of intestinal tissue will be collected. Participants may have an optional MRI of the digestive tract. Participants will have 9 follow-up telehealth visits over 6 months. They will be asked about their symptoms and side effects. They will fill out short surveys. They will collect stool and urine samples at home. Up to 2 visits can be done in person. At these visits, they may have the option to have an MRI and another colonoscopy to get more tissue samples. Participation will last for 6-7 months.
This phase I trial studies how well fecal microbiota transplant and dietary fiber supplementation work in treating patients with gut graft versus host disease. Fecal microbiota transplant entails inoculating donor stool into a recipient's gastrointestinal tract. Changing the gut microbiome by fecal microbiota transplant and fiber supplementation may help treat gut graft versus host disease.
This is a single center, randomized, parallel assignment, and double-blind placebo-controlled pilot study to characterize the intestinal microbiome in patients with severe Alcoholic Hepatitis (SAH) and evaluate the safety and the trends in improvement of diversity of intestinal microbiome following administration of lyophilized capsules containing microbiota suspension from well screened health donors. The study aims to enroll 50 patients with SAH who will be randomly assigned in 1:1 where 25 patients will be assigned to receive orally administered lyophilized PRIM-DJ2727 and Standard of Care (SOC) and the other 25 patients will be assigned to receive placebo and SOC for 4 weeks.
The researchers intend to prospectively study the safety, clinical efficacy and microbial outcomes in patients with recently diagnosed UC with FMT capsule therapy derived from pre-defined donors. Donors will be specifically screened for Fusobacterium and Sutterella species as well as for global diversity. It is unknown if treatment with antibiotics before FMT improves the engraftment and/or efficacy of FMT in UC, therefore the researchers plan to randomize subjects to receive pre-treatment with antibiotics or not before FMT therapy. The research team enroll patients from The Susan and Leonard Feinstein IBD Center and our established early diagnosis clinic at Mount Sinai Hospital (MSH).
Single patient with ASD will be treated with Vancomycin followed by FMT.
This phase II trial studies the effect of fecal microbiota transplant and re-introduction of anti-PD-1 therapy (pembrolizumab or nivolumab) in treating anti-PD-1 non-responders with colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Fecal microbiota transplants contain the normal bacteria and viruses found in fecal (stool) material. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pembrolizumab or nivolumab with fecal microbiota transplants may help to control the disease.
This is an open-label clinical trial to evaluate the benefits of familial fecal microbiota transplant following a 6-week treatment with Vancomycin in minor and adult subjects with ASD for treatment of social deficits and language delays.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lyophilized PRIM-DJ2727 capsules given orally in subjects with ulcerative colitis at remission stage. This study will also include longitudinal analyses of recipient's gut microbiota taxonomy and metagenomics to determine potential associations with clinical outcomes in context of active FMT or placebo administration.
This phase I trial studies the side effects of using an investigational procedure (fecal microbiota transplantation \[FMT\]) in treating patients with severe acute gut graft-versus-host-disease. The purpose of a fecal microbiota transplantation is to use feces from a healthy human donor to replace the abnormal gut bacteria in the recipient. One of the side effects of a stem cell transplant is the development of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in several organs including gut. GvHD is caused by the donated bone marrow or peripheral blood cells recognizing the recipient's body as foreign and attacking it. Acute gut GvHD is one of the leading causes of death after transplant. Recently, studies have shown that patients with reduced intestinal bacterial diversity in their stool during acute gut GvHD have higher overall mortality rates. The information learned from this study may offer FMT as a promising therapy for the treatment of severe acute gut graft-versus-host-disease.
All patients will be required to have a biopsy of a metastatic tumor deposit at study entry. Pembrolizumab will be administered at a dose of 200 mg as a 30 minute IV infusion every 3 weeks. Enzalutamide will be continued at dose of 160 mg orally every day. Patients who have neither rapid disease progression or disease response will undergo a fecal microbiota transplant, have a second biopsy (if medically feasible), and be re-treated with pembrolizumab.
The study will provide data to show the effectiveness of Fecal Microbiota Transplant in patients with recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is a procedure in which healthy colon contents of a carefully screened donor is inserted into the colon of a compromised patient. FMT is a procedure to replace beneficial bacteria that has been killed or suppressed, most commonly by use of antibiotics. Currently it is utilized as an experimental treatment for Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). This procedure is predicted to reduce the cost both financially and physically for the CDI patient and facility.
Gastro-Intestinal Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GI-aGVHD) is a complication of allogeneic stem cell transplant which is usually treated with steroids. You are being asked to take part in this study because you have recently been diagnosed with GI-GVHD. The standard of care for GI-aGVHD is steroids. When aGVHD does not respond to steroids it is described as steroid-refractory aGVHD. There is no standard therapy for steroid-refractory GI-aGVHD. This study is a Phase II study. The main goal of a Phase II study is to see the efficacy and what side effects are seen with FMT as a treatment for GVHD. Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) is the transfer of fecal material from a healthy donor to a patient in order to restore the diversity of the intestinal microbiota. FMT is currently indicated for the treatment of recurrent Clostridium Difficile infection. FMT is considered experimental in this study, meaning it is not approved by the FDA for the treatment of GVHD.
This trial studies how well fecal microbiota transplantation works in treating diarrhea or colitis (inflammation of the intestines) that is caused by certain types of medications (called immune-checkpoint inhibitors) in patients with genitourinary cancer. Fecal microbiota transplantation may effectively reduce the incidence of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced diarrhea/colitis.
A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial examining the efficacy and safety of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) and high fiber supplementation in patients with active mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis (UC). All enrolled subjects will provide serological, stool and mucosal specimen at each clinic visit to help further define the alterations in microbial profiles and immune cell function in response to psyllium fiber after FMT treatment.
The goal of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of an oral fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) intervention for Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic immune central nervous system (CNS) disease of unknown cause. Recent studies suggest that gut microbiota could be a trigger for the neuro-inflammation in MS and abnormal gut microbiota composition has been reported in MS patients. These data provided scientific rationale for microbiota-directed intervention, like stool transplant, for the treatment of MS.
This is an open-label pilot study designed to explore the safety, feasibility, tolerability, and acceptability of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in the treatment of severe and enduring anorexia nervosa (SE-AN).
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is one of the most urgent health threats in the U.S. associated with antibiotic use. After an initial episode, disease recurrence is high and relapses can occur in 20-30% of people treated with oral vancomycin. An antibiotic course can affect the gut microbiome for years, and patients with CDI have additional dysbiosis of their gut flora. Oral vancomycin perturbs the gut microbiome further. Restoration of the microbiome with Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) has been proven a highly efficacious and cost-effective treatment for recurrent CDI. FMT has had very limited study for a primary episode of CDI to date because an endoscopic procedure was the recommended route of delivery. However, FMT is now available via frozen oral capsules and has been shown to be non-inferior to FMT via colonoscopy in randomized controlled trials. The investigators hypothesize that outcomes after a first episode of CDI can be improved if the microbiome is restored with oral FMT. It is further hypothesized that this will compensate for any additional microbiome perturbation caused by administration of oral vancomycin and decrease the likelihood of recurrence. Because the hypothesis is based on restoration of the microbiome, the investigators propose this proof-of-concept pilot study to examine whether FMT administered after oral vancomycin therapy for primary CDI restores microbiome diversity compared to patients who do not receive FMT. Because of the potential health benefits, this approach deserves further study. The results from this pilot study on the microbiome diversity as well as the surveys to be conducted about GI symptomatology (e.g., diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating), CDI recurrence and healthcare utilization, would provide preliminary data to support a randomized controlled, multicenter clinical trial.
NCT02108821 Primary goal: -To determine the safety of fecal transplant by colonoscopy and retention enemas for induction followed by maintenance retention fecal vs. placebo enemas in children and young adults with uncomplicated mild-moderately active Crohn's disease. Secondary goals: * Assess efficacy of this induction regimen followed by maintenance fecal or placebo transplants in responders. The efficacy will be assessed by clinical evaluation and fecal calprotectin that is a non-invasive biomarker. * Correlate subject's baseline microbiome findings with likelihood for response to FMT induction therapy. * Follow the chronological microbiome shifts after transplant and correlate with response using clinical and calprotectin assessment in the two groups.
This research study is studying the role fecal microbiota transplantation may play in post-Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) recipients
