Implementation of fecal microbiota transplantation in a medical center for recurrent or refractory Clostridioides difficile infection and report of preliminary outcome
Implementation of fecal microbiota transplantation in a medical center for recurrent or refractory Clostridioides difficile infection and report of preliminary outcome
FMT was successfully implemented in a medical center in Taiwan and showed a comparable successful rate in treating rCDI, compared to other countries. Safety remains the most important issue when applying FMT in the clinical setting.

Fecal microbiota transplant, its usefulness beyond Clostridioides difficile in gastrointestinal diseases
Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) is currently recommended for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection. However, it is interesting to acknowledge the potential therapeutic role in other diseases associated with dysbiosis. This review will focus on the current and potential indications of FMT in …

Frontiers | An Immunologic Compatibility Testing Was Not Useful for Donor Selection in Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Ulcerative Colitis | Immunology
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an effective procedure against Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), with promising but still suboptimal performance in other diseases, such as ulcerative colitis (UC). The recipient’s mucosal immune response against the donor’s microbiota could be relevant factor in the effectiveness of FMT. Our aim was to design and validate an individualized immune-based test to optimize the fecal donor selection for FMT. First, we performed an in vitro validation of the test by co-culturing lymphocytes obtained from the small intestine mucosa of organ donor cadavers (n=7) and microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) obtained from the feces of 19 healthy donors. The inflammatory response was determined by interleukin supernatant quantification using the Cytometric Bead Array kit (B&D). We then conducted a clinical pilot study with 4 patients with UC using immunocompetent cells extracted from rectal biopsies and MAMPs from 3 donor candidates. We employed the test results to guide donor selection for FMT, which was performed by colonoscopy followed by 4 booster instillations by enema in the following month. The microbiome engraftment was assessed by 16S rDNA massive sequencing in feces, and the patients were clinically followed-up for 16 weeks. The results demonstrated that IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1ß were the most variable markers, although we observed a general tolerance to the microbial insults. Clinical and colonoscopy remission of the pati...

Background Recurrent Clostridiodies difficile infection (CDI) contributes to morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been proven to be effective in treatment of recurrent CDI, but immunocompromised patients have been excluded from prospective studies due to safety concerns. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety of FMT for recurrent CDI in immunocompromised patients with solid tumor malignancy undergoing chemotherapy. Methods This was a single center, prospective observational study of patients at a tertiary care cancer center of 10 patients with recurrent CDI who were at least 18 years of age, with a solid tumor malignancy who had received chemotherapy within the previous 6 months. Patients received FMT either by upper endoscopy or colonoscopy and were followed for 6 months. Safety was a primary outcome measured by infections occurring within 2 weeks of FMT. Efficacy of FMT was also evaluated. Results Nineteen patients were evaluated. On applying exclusion criteria, 10 were included in the study. One patient requested to be off study within 2 weeks and was considered a treatment failure. Seven received FMT via upper endoscopy, three via colonoscopy. There were no infectious complications from FMT. Eight patients (80%) were cured after the first FMT. All eight patients went on to restart oncologic treatment with an average of 32.5 days after FMT. Conclusions FMT is safe and effective for recurrent CDI in solid tumor patients undergoing chemotherapy. Patients can resume oncologic treatment after FMT.
