NCT ID NCT03148743
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can safely treat gut graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after stem cell transplants. Researchers will track changes in stool frequency and volume in 50 participants aged 10 to 60. The goal is to see if restoring healthy gut bacteria can control this condition.
