Poop transplants tested as potential Game-Changer for gut disease

This study is testing whether transferring healthy gut bacteria from a donor (a fecal microbiota transplant) can help people with ulcerative colitis achieve and maintain remission without needing steroid medications. It involves 150 adults with active ulcerative colitis who will receive either the real transplant or a sham (placebo) procedure. The goal is to see if restoring a healthy balance of gut bacteria can better control this chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
