Summary

The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of a novel colonic and oral fecal microbiota transplantation protocol for the treatment of active pediatric Crohn's disease (CD). Specifically, we will test the hypothesis that a protocol of combination fecal microbiota colonoscopic infusion and oral microbiota capsules (OMC), using live fecal material from anonymous unrelated donors, can improve the disease activity of pediatric CD patients.

Conditions

  • Crohn Disease
  • Pediatric Crohns Disease
  • Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
  • Colitis

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

MICROBIOTA

Fecal microbiota enema (RBX2660) infused via colonoscope x 1 + oral microbiota capsules (RBX7455) x 6 weeks. The fecal microbiota enema (RBX2660) prepared by Rebiotix has received Health Canada Clinical Trials Application (CTA), and U.S. Food and Drug Administration Investigational New Drug Application (IND) approval for clinical trials in patients with recurrent Clostridium difficile infection, and pediatric inflammatory bowel disease. The human-derived fecal oral microbiota capsule (RBX7455) has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration Investigational New Drug Application (IND) approval for clinical trials in patients with recurrent Clostridium difficile infection.

BIOLOGICAL

PLACEBO

Placebo enema (Normal Saline) infused via colonoscope x 1 + oral placebo capsules (dextrose-containing capsules) x 6 weeks. NOTE: Patients randomized to the control group will be given the option of receiving open-label treatment, with the intervention therapy, either: upon completion of the trial, or if they are removed from the trial due to disease exacerbation or other adverse event, at the discretion of their primary gastroenterologist.
