Gut bacteria swap could curb superbug spread in hospitals
NCT ID NCT05835206
First seen May 13, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a microbiome therapy (a treatment that changes the bacteria in your gut) can safely reduce the amount of antibiotic-resistant bacteria living in the intestines of hospitalized patients. About 40 adults who carry these superbugs will receive either the therapy or a placebo. The goal is to see if the treatment can lower the risk of future infections and the need for strong, last-resort antibiotics.
