Safety and Tolerability of FMT Capsules in Healthy Volunteers
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single center study to investigate the safety and tolerability of XBI-302 administered orally in healthy volunteers. The hypothesis of this study is that XBI-302 is safe and well tolerated with the proposed dosing regimens.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The incidence and severity of all AEs and SAEs [Day 28]
The incidence and severity of all AEs and SAEs that are determined to be related to XBI-302 through Day 28.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The incidence of all AEs and SAEs [Day 28 and Week 12]
The incidence of all AEs and SAEs through Day 28 and Week 12.
- Change in laboratory data of pre- and post-intervention as a measure of safety. [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Compare changes laboratory data via hematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis, and routine stool testing before and after using FMT capsules.
- Change in functions of all organ systems via standard complete physical examinations. [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Change in functions of all organ systems via standard complete physical examinations.
- Change in functions of heart, lungs, abdomen and other organ that involve the gastrointestinal tract and digestive system via targeted physical examinations. [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Change in functions of heart, lungs, abdomen and other organ that involve the gastrointestinal tract and digestive system via targeted physical examinations.
- Change in vital signs in ear temperature, pulse, respirations, and blood pressure as a measure of safety. [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Change in vital signs in ear temperature, pulse, respirations, and blood pressure as a measure of safety.
- The incidence of gastrointestinal AEs [Weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 (if applicable for the arm)]
Compare the incidence of gastrointestinal AEs on the dosing day(s) between treatment groups.
- The level of difficulty of swallowing FMT capsules as a measure of tolerability. [Weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 (if applicable for the arm)]
Estimate degree of difficulty of swallowing FMT capsules via daily diary cards by selecting easy, ok, hard (must rest frequently to complete all capsules), or very hard (stuck to my throat all the time, took a long time to finish all capsules).
- The subjective experience of the taste acceptance as a measure of tolerability. [Weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 (if applicable for the arm)]
Estimate degree of taste acceptance of FMT capsules via daily diary cards by selecting none, ok, a strange taste, or strong taste that makes me nauseous.
- The gut microbiome profile [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Compare the gut microbiome profile before and after the transplantation between treatment groups.
- The gut microbiome profile [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Compare the gut microbiome profile before and after the transplantation between donors and participants.
- The colonization of microbiota from donor [Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 (if applicable for the arm)]
Compare the effects of diet and lifestyle on the colonization of microbiota from donor before and after FMT.
