Summary

This study tests whether taking freeze-dried fecal transplant capsules (PRIM-DJ2727) can help adults with ulcerative colitis stay in remission and avoid flare-ups. About 58 participants will take the capsules or a placebo for 12 weeks alongside their usual treatment. The goal is to see if this approach safely prevents intestinal inflammation and improves quality of life.
