Summary

Five hundred patients are randomized 1:1:1:1 into placebo (own feces), or receiving 90 g fecal transplant from donor A, donor B or donor C. The fecal transplant is administered to the distal duodenum via the working channel of a gastroscope. The patients shall complete 6 questionnaires measuring symptoms, fatigue, quality of life, stool form and diet intake at the baseline and at the end point of the trial and provide a feces sample at the baseline, and at 3, 6 and 12 months after FMT. Dysbiosis and fecal bacterial profile are determined by using 16S rRNA gene PCR DNA amplification/probe hybridization covering regions V3-V9.
