March 1, 2019 updated by: Adrián Camacho-Ortiz, Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo Leon

Fecal Microbiota Transplant by Oral Capsules Enriched With Lactobacilli for Recurrent Clostridium Difficile Infection

Investigators designed an open, two-arm study to compare fecal microbiota transplant by oral capsules (FMT-c ) versus FMT-c enriched with Lactobacillus for treatment of C. difficile recurrent infection

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Investigators designed an open, two-arm study to compare to compare fecal microbiota transplant by oral capsules (FMT-c ) versus FMT-c enriched with Lactobacillus for treatment of C. difficile recurrent infection.

From each patient, a fecal sample was obtained at days 0, 3, and 7 after treatment. Fecal samples are analyzed by 16 subunit ribosomal ribonucleic acid (16S rRNA) metagenomic sequencing.
