FMT-CIP: Investigation of Fecal Microbiota Transplant in Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-obstruction Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction (CIPO) is a rare gastrointestinal disorder that primarily affects the movement of the intestines, leading to symptoms that resemble a true bowel obstruction but without a physical blockage. This condition is characterized by impaired motility of the gastrointestinal tract, which can result in severe symptoms and complications. In previous studies, the investigator found that sequential microbiota transplantation therapy can improve clinical symptoms of chronic pseudo-obstruction. Building on this foundation, the current study further investigates the effects of sequential interventions involving intestinal cleansing, small intestine bacterial treatment, fecal microbiota transplantation, and nutritional therapy on the short-term and long-term clinical symptom improvement in patients. Additionally, the investigator aim to elucidate the changes in gut microbiota phenotypes before and after treatment.

Experimental: sequential antibiotics treatment and fecal + small intestinal microbiota transplant

Other: sequential fecal microbiota transplant combined with small intestinal fluid transplant
for eligible patients, the investigator use rifaximin, three times daily, 0.4 g each time, lasting 6 days followed by fecal microbiota transplant combined with small intestinal fluid transplant for 6 days. These procedures were repeated every 28 days.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Enteral Nutrition Tolerance [8 weeks]
the maximal amount of enteral nutrition allowed daily
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Nutrition Status [52 weeks]
intersectional muscle and fat area measurements by quantitative computed tomography
Other Outcome Measures
- Need for surgery [52 weeks]
Surgical interventions are performed due to intestinal nutritional intolerance, including procedures such as nutritional ostomy, decompression ostomy, and intestinal resection.
- Changes of both colerectal and small intestinal microbiota profile [8 weeks]
Both colorectal and small intestinal bacteria profile before and after treatment.
