drug
Since 1958, FMT has been used without regulation in the United States
In 2013, the FDA came out with regulations
An approved IND application is recommended but not required for FMT with CDI
All other applications of FMT require an approved IND application
3. Donors undergo blood tests and extensive interview to assess lifestyle and
health history*
4. Test donor stool for transmissible pathogens*
*costs of these screening tests average $500 and may not be covered by insurance
9. Deliver mixture
Via colonoscopy, retention enema, naso-tube, or pill
Must be administered within 6 hours of donor voiding (if using fresh)
IBD Review
Umbrella term for two chronic inflammatory diseases of
the intestines
Crohns Disease affects anywhere along the GI tract
(usually the ileum)
UC affects only the colon
Etiology unknown
Interaction between the GI immunologic system, genetic,
and environmental factors
Moayyedi et al
75 subjects with active UC
Weekly FMT or water (placebo) via retention enema for 6 weeks
retain for at least 20 minutes
Rossen et al
48 subjects with active UC
FMT using donor stool or their own stool (placebo) via nasoduodenal tube once at
baseline and once at week 3
Subjects were excluded if using anti-TNF or methotrexate treatment and cyclosporine
Subjects pretreated with bowel lavage night before and morning of treatment
Discontinued at interim analysis by the DMSC due to futility
Primary outcome was remission at week 12
37 patients completed the primary end point assessment.
Results: insignificant benefit of FMT induced remission of those treated with FMT (7
of 23, 30.4%) vs. those treated with placebo (5 of 25, 20%)
Subgroup analysis showed FMT group to have similar microbiomes to their donors
ROSSEN ET AL
6 FMT infusions
2 FMT infusions
Permitted UC treatments
No pretreatment
Water as placebo
Crohns Disease
Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 18 studies of FMT for treatment of
IBD
4 studies evaluating 38 patients with Crohns Disease
Terminal ileum
Colonoscopy delivery not recommended for frequency of FMT infusions needed
Retention enemas are likely to be ineffective
Possibility of oral capsules?
Conclusion
Research for FMT as treatment for IBD is still in its early stages
More RCTs are needed for both UC and Crohns Disease
More research is needed to find the most effective way to administer FMT in
regards to IBD
Even with C. diff, there is still yet to be a definitive protocol
Questions?
Thank you!
