Fecal transplant for preventing colon polyp return
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking capsules of healthy bacteria (fecal microbiota transplant) can help prevent colon polyps from coming back after they have been removed. It might be an option for people who have had an adenoma polyp removed and want to reduce the chance of recurrence.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have had a colon polyp called an adenoma removed by colonoscopy within the last 6 months, and the doctor confirmed it was an adenoma.
- You can swallow pills or capsules.
- You are willing to understand the study and sign a consent form.

This study checks how well two lab tests (M3 and FIT) can predict whether advanced colon polyps (adenomas) will come back. If you’ve had adenomas found on a prior colonoscopy, these results may help plan future surveillance.
This trial tests whether taking a probiotic called Clostridium Butyricum after colon polyp removal can lower the chance of polyps coming back. It is looking for people who had adenomas removed and are not already taking certain supplements or antibiotics.
This trial tests a Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal formula (Jianpi Lishi Jiedu Granules) to see if it can prevent colorectal advanced adenomas (a precancerous polyp) from coming back after they have been removed during a colonoscopy. It is recruiting people who have had such a polyp removed and whose body has a specific TCM pattern ('Spleen Deficiency and Dampness Toxin').
This study aims to develop a tool using gut bacteria and metabolites to predict if high-risk colon polyps will come back after removal. If you are between 40 and 75 and have had certain types of colon polyps removed, you may be able to help us build better prediction methods.
This study tests whether a diet education program can change the balance of gut bacteria and bile acids to lower the risk of colorectal cancer in people who have had polyps removed.
This study looks at whether polyps come back after they are removed during a routine stomach or colon scope. It may help doctors understand how often polyps return and who needs closer follow-up.
