PUNCH CD 2 Clinical Trials Link...

Postby Tonja13 » Wed Jan 07, 2015 2:30 pm

I found this online, some locations have already started, some will be enrolling soon...I thought maybe someone here might be lucky enough to qualify. It's clinical trials for a new "poop pill"!

Awesome I just looked at this and saw that the hospital that did my FMT is participating in the study. I bet my doctor is heading it for that hospital. It looks like its for active cdiff suffers so that's good for some of you. I wish they would start a vaccine study who have had it a recovered before we relapse again.

This is very interesting but does not seem to be testing "poop pills" - rather a synthetic mixture that is being administered by enema - at least for this trial.

From what I understand, if you have had a previous FMT, you are not eligible for this.
