In Silico Analysis of Changes in Predicted Metabolic Capabilities of Intestinal Microbiota after Fecal Microbial Transplantation for Treatment of Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection - PubMed
Our findings suggest potential changes in key KO groups post-FMT, which may contribute to FMT efficacy beyond the restored microbial composition/diversity and metabolism of bile acids and short-chain fatty acids. Future larger studies that include a fecal metabolomics analysis combined with animal m …

Study finds stool transplants more effective than antibiotics for treating recurring, life-threatening gut infections
A new study, published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and led by an Upstate Medical University professor, has found that compared with standard antibiotic treatment, stool transplantation can increase the number of people recovering from Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection, a condition that causes potentially life-threatening diarrhea. Within the study, 77% of people who received a stool transplant did not experience reinfection within eight weeks, compared to 40% of those who received antibiotics alone.
Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of REBYOTA™ (Fecal Microbiota, Live-jslm [FMBL]) Versus Standard of Care for the Prevention of Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection in the USA - PubMed
FMBL was found to be cost-effective compared to SOC for the prevention of rCDI with more benefits among patients at first recurrence, with an ICER far below the payer ICER threshold of $100,000. Patients treated with FMBL experienced higher total QALYs and reduced healthcare resource utilization, in …
Budget Impact Analysis of REBYOTA™ (Fecal Microbiota, Live-jslm [FMBL]) for Preventing Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection in the US - PubMed
FMBL has a cost-saving budget impact for a US payer, with higher initial drug costs being offset by savings in rCDI-related medical costs. Greater cost saving was found in patients at first recurrence.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Clostridioides difficile infection and utilization of fecal microbiota transplantation - PubMed
Previous research has demonstrated that the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) gains cell entry through the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor, which is abundantly found throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, resulting in a wide array of GI manifestations of coro …
Fecal microbiota transplantation for recurrent C. difficile infection in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis - PubMed
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is known to be highly effective in patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI), but its role in patients who also suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unclear. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to eva …
