Gut bacteria boost: could poop pills help tame bowel disease?

NCT ID NCT05327790

Summary

This study is testing if adding a freeze-dried fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) to standard biologic medications helps people with active ulcerative colitis get better. It will involve 40 adults in Canada who are starting new treatment with either vedolizumab or ustekinumab. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the real FMT or a placebo alongside their medication to see which combination is safer and more effective at controlling the disease.
