Testing a freeze-dried fecal transplant during colon surgery
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving a special freeze-dried mixture of healthy gut bacteria right after colon surgery is safe and possible. It may help patients recover better after the procedure.

This study tests whether transplanting healthy gut bacteria into people who have had part of their colon removed can improve recovery. It may help prevent infections or other complications after surgery.
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 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.
This trial tests whether one or multiple fecal transplants from a healthy donor can help treat both a recurring C. diff infection and active ulcerative colitis. It aims to find the best schedule for the procedure.
This trial tests whether a stool transplant (fecal microbiota transplantation) can help manage active ulcerative colitis. You would receive a transplant from a healthy donor to see if it improves your symptoms.
This study tests if a freeze-dried fecal transplant (FMT) can help people with difficult-to-treat diarrhea caused by IBS-D or recurring C. diff infections. It's a way to restore healthy gut bacteria and may reduce symptoms.
