Evaluation of an Oral Microbiota-based Therapeutic as a Treatment Option for PSC

Официальное название

Evaluation of an Oral Microbiota-based Therapeutic as a Treatment Option for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Обзор

This pilot clinical trial will evaluate the initial safety and feasibility of microbiota transplant therapy (MTT) inpatients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). This trial will inform development of future trials in treatment of PSC.

Вмешательства

• Препарат oral vancomycin and oral amoxicillin
  In this study, PSC patients will receive an antibiotic preconditioning regimen of oral vancomycin (500 mg liquid twice a day) for 28 days and oral amoxicillin (1000 mg twice a day) for 7 days (during the last 7 days of the oral vancomycin). Following vancomycin and amoxicillin, encapsulated, freeze-dried microbiota preparation (MTP-101C) will be administered - dosed at ≥ 5 x 10\^11 bacteria (five capsules) daily for 3 days followed by ≥ 2 x 10\^11 bacteria (two capsules) for 11 days - for a tota
