Summary

This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of autologous fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in gastrointestinal (GI) related graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Stool for FMT will be prepared from pre-allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT) period. This strategy might offer a novel and safe therapeutic approach for these patients, who suffer from high disease related morbidity and mortality and are refractory to multiple treatments.

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Autologous Fecal Microbiota Transplantation

Consenting allo- SCT patients with acute steroid-resistant GI-related GVHD grade III-IV will receive autologous FMT by nasogastric tube. Standardized stool suspension will be given once a day for two consecutive days.In order to prevent aspiration, patients will be kept in a 45ᵒ upright position for four hours. Participants will fast the night before and be treated with proton pump inhibitors prior to each FMT. In cases where complete response was not obtained within 7 days after autologous FMT, patients may be eligible for another trail of autologous FMT or to switch to other pharmacological interventions. Stool samples will be collected before and after the intervention for microbial analyses.
