NCT ID NCT05666960

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether an oral probiotic called R-3750 is safe and tolerable for people with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. About 36 adults will take the probiotic and be monitored for side effects, inflammation, and symptom changes. The goal is to see if this gentle approach could help control the disease.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
R-3750 (probiotic)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new, gentle treatment option for mild to moderate ulcerative colitis that uses a probiotic instead of stronger drugs.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 36 people, so it is primarily checking safety, not effectiveness. The probiotic may not improve symptoms or could cause side effects.
