Trial summary

The study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation by automatic methods in the treatment of moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis. There are two groups according to FMT pathway ( through a naso-jejunal tube or transendoscopic enteral tubing). Read more about this study

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Eligible patients required a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis made by a primary gastroenterologist based upon history, physical exam, laboratory/radiological studies and gastrointestinal histology. All patients were age ≥ 18 year old at the time of enrollment. They had moderate to severe symptoms with a mayo score between 6~12 and an endoscopic subscore ≥2. Patient medication for UC could not have changed for at least one month prior to FMT.

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: Clinical Response and Safety Following Fecal Microbiota Transplantation by Automatic Methods in Patients With Moderate-Severe Active Ulcerative Colitis

The study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation by automatic methods in the treatment of moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis. There are two groups according to FMT pathway ( through a naso-jejunal tube or transendoscopic enteral tubing). Patients were followed up until 2 weeks after the final FMT in hospital.

Being tested
FMT through a naso-jejunal tube, FMT through TET
Medical subject headings
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • FMT through a naso-jejunal tubeOther

    Prepared feces by automatic methods, then the purified fecal microbiota was delivered into the intestine through a naso-jejunal tube.

  • FMT through TETOther

    Prepared feces by automatic methods, then the purified fecal microbiota was delivered into the intestine through a transendoscopic enteral tubing (TET) which is fixed to the cecum with clips under endoscopic guidance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. clinical response

    reduction in the Mayo score of ≥3 points and ≥30% from baseline, with a decrease in the rectal bleeding subscore of ≥1 point or a subscore of ≤1

    Measured: 2 weeks after FMT

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. clinical remission, safety and progression of disease

    clinical remission: Mayo score ≤ 2, with no subscore > 1; progression of disease: measured by initiation of anti-TNFα or colectomy. Adverse event severity and relatedness was graded using NIH criteria.

    Measured: 2 weeks after FMT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FMT through a naso-jejunal tube and FMT through TET in people with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Fecal Microbiota Transplantation, run by Air Force Military Medical University, China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

clinical response (time frame: 2 weeks after FMT). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Mar 2020.
