Conditions

intestinal carriage of multidrug resistant bacteria (Enterobacteriaceae)

Interventions

Oral gut decontamination regimen polymixin/neomycine 500.000 IE/125 mg 4dd2 for 5 days, combined with nitrofurantoin (100 mg 2×/day) for 5 days if MDRE bacteriuria is present, followed by bowel lava

Allergy / contraindication study drugs. 6. Recurrent aspirations / chronic dysphagia. 7. Recent intra-abdominal surgery. 8. A history of acute rejection within 6 months before enrolment. 9. Treatment with alemtuzumab within 6 months before enrolment. 10. Treatment with of eculizumab within 3 months before enrolment. 11.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary study parameters: Frequency and magnitude of any adverse event within 1 month of faecal microbiota transfusion, including infections. The occurrence of renal transplant related adverse events (graft loss, biopsy-proven acute rejection, doubling of serum creatinine) within 3 months after FMT.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary / exploratory study parameters: - Number of participants with intestinal carriage of MDRE after FMT (assessed at 1 and 2 weeks and 1, 3 and 6 months after FMT). - Number of participants with one or more MDRE infection(s) within 6 months after FMT. - Change (relative to baseline) in the microbiota composition during 6 months of follow-up. - Change in microbiome diversity, calculated by Shannon diversity index, during 6 months of follow-up. - Prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes in faecal samples during 6 months of follow up as determined by metagenomics.
