Recruiting studies
- NCT03613545RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Fecal transplant to treat irritable bowel syndrome
This study tests whether transferring stool bacteria from a healthy donor (fecal microbiota transplantation) can improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It may help by changing the gut bacteria that can influence digestion and gut discomfort.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03804931RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Stool transplant for moderate to severe ulcerative colitis
This trial tests whether transplanting stool bacteria into the colon (fecal microbiota transplantation) can improve ulcerative colitis symptoms in people with active, moderate to severe disease. If you qualify, the study team will also check that it’s safe for you and that you can safely undergo a scope exam.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT03819296RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant to treat cancer immunotherapy bowel side effects
This early-phase study tests whether changing your gut bacteria with a fecal transplant can improve diarrhea or colitis caused by cancer immunotherapy. It may help people whose symptoms have not fully settled with standard treatments like steroids and other immune-blocking medicines.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03895593Recruiting
Fecal transplant for stubborn intestinal infections
This study looks at “rescue” fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), which replaces gut microbes using stool from a screened donor, for intestinal infections that have not improved with standard care. It may help patients whose infection keeps coming back or doesn’t respond to treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT04014413Recruiting
Fecal transplant for gut and immune-related conditions
This trial studies whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)—a medical procedure using stool from a screened donor to restore gut bacteria—can improve safety and outcomes for people with certain bowel, immune, and metabolic conditions. It may help if your symptoms are thought to be related to an unhealthy gut microbiome, though eligibility is broad and depends on specific safety factors.
Hong Kong, ShatinAges Any age - NCT04038619RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant for immune-therapy diarrhea or bowel inflammation
This early-phase study tests whether stool/fecal microbiota transplant (a fecal transplant) can help people who develop significant diarrhea or colitis after immune-checkpoint therapy. It aims to reduce bowel inflammation and improve symptoms, while carefully checking for infections.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04637438Recruiting
Fecal transplant for Crohn’s around the small and large bowel
This trial studies fecal microbiota transplantation (a transplant of beneficial gut bacteria from a donor) to help people with Crohn’s disease that is causing narrowing (strictures) and/or abnormal tunnels (fistulas) and who need bowel surgery. You may qualify if you’re an adult, planning ileal/ileocecal surgery, and can complete the colonoscopy while not on certain gut-altering medicines.
TampereAges 18–120 - NCT04935684RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant after bone marrow transplant to improve gut health
This Phase 2 study tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (a processed transplant of gut bacteria) after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant is safe and helpful. Participants may benefit by improving recovery in the gut microbiome during the post-transplant period.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT04997733RecruitingPhase 3
Stool transplant to maintain Crohn’s remission after stopping anti-TNF
This Phase 3 study tests whether transplanting stool bacteria can help people with Crohn’s stay in remission after they stop an anti-TNF medicine. It may help some patients who are currently doing well but need to come off anti-TNF treatment.
ParisAges 18–74 - NCT05006430RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fecal transplant study for severe alcoholic hepatitis safety
This trial tests whether fecal microbiota transplantation (a controlled transfer of stool bacteria) is safe in people with severe alcoholic hepatitis. It aims to see if the treatment is tolerable and what risks may come with it, in addition to watching how liver illness changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT05035342RecruitingPhase 3
Fecal transplant to clear resistant gut bacteria
This Phase 3 study tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) can eliminate hard-to-treat bacteria in the gut, such as ESBL or carbapenem-resistant bacteria. If it works, it may reduce future infections and antibiotic-resistant illness.
ClichyAges 18–105 - NCT05170971Recruiting
Fecal transplant trial for worsening liver failure
This trial studies fecal microbiota transplantation (a transfer of healthy gut bacteria from a donor) to help people with worsening liver failure. It may help by changing gut bacteria, which can affect complications like confusion, fluid buildup, infections, and kidney problems.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 18–65 - NCT05266807RecruitingPhase 3
Capsule fecal transplant to prevent C. difficile coming back
This study tests whether taking a capsule form of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) can help adults with their first C. difficile infection—or a first relapse—get better and reduce repeat episodes. Participants also take specific antibiotics for C. difficile as part of the study process.
Basel, BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT05321758Recruiting
Stool transplant as first treatment for kids with Crohn’s
This study tests whether transferring healthy gut bacteria from stool into the colon can work as a first treatment for children newly diagnosed with mild-to-moderate Crohn’s disease. It may help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms, and it requires regular colonoscopy to monitor progress.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 2–16 - NCT05361785Recruiting
Fecal transplant to help IBS food sensitivity
This study tests whether transferring gut bacteria from a healthy donor to a participant can reduce irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms related to food sensitivity. You may be asked to follow a low-FODMAP diet and receive a fecal microbiota transplant if you meet the study’s safety and health requirements.
Helsinki, Helsinki and UusimaaAges 18–75 - NCT05502913RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant plus cancer immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial studies whether giving a fecal microbiota transplant (a stool-based sample from a carefully screened donor) alongside immune checkpoint inhibitors can improve outcomes in people with lung cancer. It aims to change the gut bacteria to help the immune system work better against the cancer.
BeershebaAges 18 years+ - NCT05739825Recruiting
Fecal transplant to change gut bacteria in C. difficile infection
This trial studies whether fecal microbiota transplantation (a procedure that transfers healthy stool bacteria) can change a person’s gut bacteria after repeated C. difficile infection. It may help reduce recurring infections by restoring a healthier balance of gut microbes.
RomaAges 18–90 - NCT05776914RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant to treat moderate to severe IBS symptoms
This trial tests whether putting stool (fecal microbiota) from a donor into your bowel can improve symptoms in people with IBS who are not IBS-C. It may help by changing the gut bacteria that can influence IBS symptoms.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–70 - NCT05790356Recruiting
Fecal transplant to treat rheumatoid arthritis symptoms
This study tests whether transferring stool from a screened healthy donor into the gut can improve rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in people whose RA is in remission or low activity. It’s mainly trying to change the gut bacteria to reduce RA symptoms or flare-ups.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05803993Recruiting
Fecal transplant to ease constipation in irritable bowel syndrome
This trial tests whether transferring stool bacteria to the gut (fecal microbiota transplantation) can reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation. It may help by changing the gut microbiome, but you must meet safety and health requirements.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT05803980Recruiting
Fecal transplant to ease IBS diarrhea symptoms
This study tests whether fecal microbiota transplantation (a stool-based treatment to change gut bacteria) can reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) that comes with diarrhea. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with diarrhea-predominant IBS and recent colonoscopy results that rule out other intestinal diseases.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT05821010RecruitingPhase 2
Synbiotics and fecal transplant for non-alcoholic liver inflammation
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking special gut-helping products (synbiotics) and/or a fecal microbiota transplant can improve non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a type of liver inflammation. It may help by changing gut bacteria that may affect liver health, but you must meet specific safety and medical criteria.
