Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
safety of fecal microbial transplantation in pouch patients by disease exacerbations
determine whether manipulation of gut microbiome by FMT to IPAA patients is safe safety of FMT will be measured by rate of patients with disease exacerbations
1 year
safety of fecal microbial transplantation in pouch patients by hospitalizations of patients
determine whether manipulation of gut microbiome by FMT to IPAA patients is safe safety of FMT will be measured by amount of patients that require hospitalizations
1 year
safety of fecal microbial transplantation in pouch patients by patients requiring surgery
determine whether manipulation of gut microbiome by FMT to IPAA patients is safe safety of FMT will be measured by amount of patients that require surgery
1 year
efficacy of FMT in pouch patients measured by mPDAI decrease
By preforming a pouchoscopy, mPDAI (modified pouchitis disease activity index) will be used to assess decrease of ≤1 in mPDAI in condition of the pouch comparing to baseline
2 months
efficacy of FMT in pouch patients measured by clinical remission
efficacy of FMT in pouch patients will be measured by the amount of patients with clinical remission measured by mPDAI clinical score \<3
2 months
Secondary Outcomes (18)
efficacy of FMT in pouch patients measured by amount of patients with sustained remission
12 months
efficacy of FMT in pouch patients measured by amount of patients with sustained clinical remission
12 months

Study Arms (1)
Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of UC who underwent IPAA
EXPERIMENTALPatients who meet inclusion criteria will be enrolled and will sign an informed consent form. The study includes six visits to the IBD clinic and phone calls between visits.
Interventions
1. At baseline, the fecal fluid from 3 different donors, 150 ml, will be delivered via pouchoscopy after which the patient will roll in to the right lateral position and stay in that position for at least 15 minutes. Prior to the procedure, the patient will fast for 12 hours and preform two fleet enemas as preperation. 2. FMT at 7 days and 4 weeks will be delivered via ingestion of 15 capsules containing 650 µL of fecal fluid from 3 different donors (the same three donors as at baseline).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients aged 18 to 80 years with a confirmed diagnosis of UC, who underwent IPAA.
- Endoscopic deterioration or Clinically suspected pouchitis, defined as increased bowel frequency (≥1 stools) relative to post-IPAA baseline (1-3 months post IPAA).
- Clinically stable patients on constant medical regimen throughout the study period. Treated by mesalamine for at least 6 weeks, or steroids at least 2 week, or immunomodulator or biologic at least 12 weeks, medical cannabis at least 2 weeks
You may not qualify if:
- Diagnosis of Crohn's disease or indeterminate colitis prior to IPAA.
- Positive stool test for parasites or stool culture for pathological bacteria within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- Evidence or history of Clostridium difficile infection within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- Active clinically significant infection (within 60 days of enrollment).
- Active septic pouch complication (e.g., abscess, leak, fistula).
- Post-surgical complication of the pouch (e.g., obstruction, stricture, volvulus, prolapse).
- Pregnancy or lactation.
- Unstable or uncontrolled medical disorder (other than suspected pouchitis).
- Inability to give informed consent and complete the study protocol.
- Patient participating in other concomitant clinical intervention trial or who had received any experimental drug within a month prior to enrollment
- Patients received antibiotics within 2 days of enrollment, or are anticipated to use antibiotics or probiotics within the study period (elective surgery or dental care).
- Patients received fecal transplantation in the last 6 months.
- Fever\>38°c
- An active malignant disease or a prior malignancy during the previous 5 years (excluding skin BCC).
- Inability or reluctance to follow through with the study protocol, including (but not exclusive) to: colonoscopy, enema, study visit.
