First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study tests whether taking capsules containing healthy donor stool (fecal transplant) can help clear a dangerous, antibiotic-resistant bacteria called CRE from the gut. About 80 hospitalized adults with CRE will receive either the capsules or a placebo. The goal is to see if this approach can safely reduce the bacteria and lower the risk of infection.
