Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Adults(ages are elder than 18 years and younger than 75 years) who developed gut acute Graft-versus-Host Disease(aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT) and were resistant to a first line therapy with steroids.

    2. patients who were diagnosed as Stage 3 or 4 Gastro-intestinal Acute Graft-versus-Host(GI-aGVHD) with the symptoms such as diarrhea or abdominal pain.

    3. Participants who accepted the FMT treatment. 4. Signature of informed and written consent by the subject.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 1. patients who were diagnosed as Stage 1 or 2 Gastro-intestinal Acute Graft-versus-Host(GI-aGVHD) 2. patients with unstable vital signs or severe cardiac and pulmonary disorder. 3. patients who were failure to cooperate endoscopy examination. 4. patients who were younger than 18 years or pregnant. 5. patients who were poor compliance to FMT treatment. 6. patients who were not able to give informed consent.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

HSCT patients with acute steroid-resistant GI-related GVHD

Arm Description

Patients will receive 500ml fecal microbiota which were sprayed evenly on the entire colon through colonscopy or duodenal nutrition tube injection which collected from one unrelated healthy donors. Patients receiving FMT treatment will be followed for at least 1,3,5,7 days.Stool, blood and colonic mucosa samples will be serially collected and tested (before pre-treatment, 1,3,5,7 days after FMT).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Gut acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) response.
Participants will be evaluated within 7 days following transplantation for response to therapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Non-serious adverse events
Participants will be evaluated for non-serious adverse events relating to FMT within 7 days following transplantation. Non-serious adverse events are defined as diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, fatigue and malaise, headache, and distension/bloating/abdominal discomfort/pain.
aGvHD severity
Number of participants will be evaluated on 1,3,5, 7 days following transplantation for severity of aGvHD.
Number of participants with infectious disorders
Evaluation of FMT activity on infectious disorder.
Number of multidrug resistant bacteria in faeces
Evaluation of FMT activity on multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB) carriage
Change in microbiota composition after FMT
Evaluation of microbiota composition before and after FMT

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for the treatment of steroid resistant graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) of the gut. This strategy might offer a safe and effective therapeutic approach for these patients with a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options.
Detailed Description
Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) is a major complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Gut is the most vulnerable target organ of acute GVHD. Patients who develope the acute gut GVHD and do not respond to the first line therapy with steroids have a high mortality. The investigation of safe and effective second line therapy for these patients are in need. The study evaluates safety and efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for the treatment of streoid resistant GVHD of the gut. Stool for FMT will be prepared from the healthy donor.This strategy might offer a safe and effective therapeutic approach for these acute steroid resistant gut GVHD patients.
