WMT for Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections (WMT-rUTI)

30 maj 2026 uppdaterad av: Faming Zhang, The Second Hospital of Nanjing Medical University

A Prospective, Single-Center, Single-Arm Clinical Study of Washed Microbiota Transplantation for Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections

his is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, interventional clinical study to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and potential mechanisms of washed microbiota transplantation (WMT) in patients with recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI). Recurrent UTI is defined as ≥2 episodes within 6 months or ≥3 episodes within 1 year. Traditional management relies heavily on antibiotics, which often lead to gut dysbiosis and increased infection risk. WMT may reconstruct intestinal microbiota, restore colonization resistance, and modulate immunity through the gut-bladder axis. Approximately 30 eligible patients will receive WMT via mid-gut or colonic transendoscopic enteral tubing (TET) for 2-3 times according to the Nanjing Consensus on Washed Microbiota Transplantation. Participants will be followed for 12 months.

Detaljerad beskrivning

This study evaluates WMT as an interventional treatment for rUTI. WMT preparation follows the Nanjing Consensus on Washed Microbiota Transplantation (Chin Med J, 2020). Donor stool is obtained from healthy screened donors and processed using the GenFMTer intelligent fecal microbiota separation system with repeated washing and strict quality control.

Patients will receive WMT via mid-gut TET or colonic TET for 2-3 sessions. Clinical assessments include UTI episode frequency, symptom severity, antibiotic usage, and adverse events. Microbiological assessments include urine routine and clean-catch midstream urine culture during acute episodes. Fecal and urine samples will be collected at baseline (before TET placement), 3 months, and 6 months post-WMT for 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing to analyze gut and urinary microbiota composition, alpha/beta diversity, and donor colonization via SourceTracker.

Experimentell: WMT Treatment Group
Biologisk: Washed Microbiota Transplantation (WMT)
Participants will receive washed microbiota transplantation delivered via mid-gut transendoscopic enteral tubing (TET) or colonic TET for 2-3 times. The WMT preparation follows the Nanjing Consensus on Washed Microbiota Transplantation (Chin Med J, 2020). Donor fecal material is obtained from healthy screened donors and processed using the GenFMTer intelligent separation system with repeated washing and quality control. The final microbiota suspension is transplanted into the mid-gut or colon through an indwelling TET tube.
