This trial tests whether a fecal transplant procedure can improve symptoms in children and teenagers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or ASD plus ADHD. Fecal transplant involves transferring healthy bacteria from a donor's gut into the patient's gut to help balance digestion and possibly affect brain function.
This Phase 1 study tests whether a “washed” stool microbiota transplant can reduce Tourette syndrome tics in children. It aims to see if changing gut bacteria is safe and may improve tic severity.
This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation (WMT), which aims to restore healthy gut bacteria to help reduce chronic diarrhea. WMT involves processing donated stool and delivering it to the patient's gut, and it may offer a new option for people who haven't found relief from other treatments.
This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation (WMT), which involves giving healthy gut bacteria to patients who have had an organ transplant and are experiencing gut problems, infections, or rejection. The goal is to see if this can help improve their symptoms and overall health.
This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation (a procedure that delivers healthy gut bacteria to your colon) for adults with chronic constipation. The goal is to see if it can improve bowel movements without the need for laxatives.
This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation (WMT) for people with a C. diff infection that causes diarrhea. WMT uses processed donor bacteria to help restore healthy gut balance and fight the infection.
