Washed Microbiota Transplant for Malnutrition
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial studies if a special, cleaned-up version of fecal transplant (called washed microbiota transplantation) helps treat malnutrition in adults. It is for people who have already had this transplant and have either lost a significant amount of weight or have a low body mass index (BMI).

This trial tests whether “washed microbiota transplant” (a treatment using processed gut bacteria) can improve malnutrition in adults who developed it after certain upper gut surgeries. It may help by restoring helpful gut bacteria, but you must meet several medical and safety checks.
This study tests whether a combination of a stool transplant (washed microbiota transplantation) plus liquid nutrition through a feeding tube can help people with gastroptosis who are also malnourished. The goal is to improve stomach function and nutrition.
This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation for people with food intolerance. It may help reduce symptoms by restoring healthy gut bacteria.
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 (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 whether fecal microbiota transplantation (Washed Microbiota Transplantation, or WMT) can help people who have gut problems like diarrhea, constipation, or infection after receiving a solid organ transplant. It aims to restore healthy gut bacteria.
