Summary

48 PD patients (age 35-75y; H\&Y 1-3) testing positive in a stool PD-dysbiosis test will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either donor FMT or their own stool through intracaecal infusion. The main outcome measure will be the sum of MDS-UPDRS I-III at 6 months to cover motor and non-motor symptom changes. A wide array of secondary clinical outcome measures will be assessed longitudinally and a large array of measurements, biospecimens (stool, urine, blood, colonic biopsies), and imaging data will be collected for further analysis at baseline, 1, 6, and 12 months.
