Fecal transplant for Crohn’s around the small and large bowel
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You can give written consent to join the study
- You have Crohn’s disease causing narrowing and/or fistulas and you are scheduled for ileocecal or ileal resection (bowel surgery)
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have an active infection, abscess, or fistula at the time of your first colonoscopy
- You are not taking antibiotics or probiotics right before the first colonoscopy

This Phase 1/2 study tests whether a fecal microbiome transplant (FMT) can reduce active inflammation in people with Crohn’s disease. It’s designed for people who currently have signs of active bowel inflammation and can attend regular procedure visits.
This study tests whether a combination of fecal transplant (transferring healthy bacteria from a donor) and dietary changes can help control disease activity in people newly diagnosed with Crohn's. It is for those with mild to moderate symptoms who have not yet taken any Crohn's medications.
This trial tests whether transferring stool microbes (called fecal microbiota transplantation, or FMT) can improve Crohn’s disease in children who have not gotten better with usual treatments. If you qualify, the study will check symptoms and colon imaging/score changes over the study follow-up.
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.
This study tests if a standardized fecal transplant is safe and helpful for adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who are already on maintenance therapy. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce inflammation in the digestive tract.
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.
