Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Enema is a conventional treatment for Ulcerative Colitis(UC). Mesalazine is suitable for the patients with mild to moderate UC.But for the UC with extending lesions, the conventional anema with Mesalazine or other medicine can not very effective.Colonic Transendoscopic enteral Tubing(TET) is a novel, safe, convenient, and reliable procedure for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation(FMT).Compared with the conventional enema, which is only used for local administration, the Colonic TET enema can achieve total colonic administration.This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Colonic TET for UC.Patients in this study will be divided into 5 groups according to certain criteria: the Mesalazine conventional enema group, the Mesalazine TET enema group, the Compound Glutamine conventional enema group, the Compound Glutamine TET enema group, the Mesalazine and Compound Glutamine TET enema group.Each group was given enema for 7 days.The primary outcome measure was the clinical remission efficacy rate in each group. The secondary outcome measure was the safety of TET.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
