Study Overview
Brief Summary
There are many limitations in the current treatments of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases(IBD) which includes Ulcerative Colitis（UC) and Crohn's Disease(CD). Some patients have no or little reaction to the traditional drugs. Now the investigators realized that the intestinal microbiota is closely associated with the development of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. In recent years, a retrospective study showed that the overall efficiency of intestinal microbiota transplantation for IBD was 79%, the overall remission rate was 43%, which opened a new chapter in the treatment of IBD. So the standardized intestinal microbiota transplantation is considered to be simple but effective emerging therapies for the treatment of IBD. In this project the investigators intend to carry out a single-center, randomized, single-blind clinical intervention study. The investigators plan to recruit patients with IBD in China. The patients will be randomly divided into two groups, one group will be given treatment of standardized intestinal microbiota transplantation, the other will be simply treated with traditional drugs, followed up for at least 1 year. The investigators aim to determine the efficiency, durability and safety of Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation for IBD treatment, and further to explore which major bacteria may effect in this project.
Detailed Description
In this projects the investigators aim to re-establish a gut balance of intestinal microbiota through Standardized Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation for Ulcerative Colitis(UC) and Crohn's Disease(CD).Investigators have established a standardized isolation, store, and transport steps of fecal bacteria from donated fresh stool in the laboratory. Then the bacteria will be transplanted to mid-gut by nose-jejunum nutrition tube or capsules.Participants in this study will be assigned to receive Standardized Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation three times a week or traditional medicine and would be followed up for at least 1 year. The clinical symptoms, sign, blood tests, endoscopy and questionnaire will be used to assess the efficiency, durability and safety of Standardized Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation at the start and end of the projects. At last, investigators will use 16S-rDNA to estimate the change of intestinal microbiota.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The change of the modified Mayo score
Time Frame: 1 month, 3 months, 6months, 12 months
Clinical remission defined as modified Mayo score≦2. Change from baseline will be assessed at different timepoint.The endpoint of follow-up is the time of clinical recurrence.
Secondary Outcomes
- Changes of gut microbiota(1 months, 3 months, 6 months, 12months)
- Relief of gastrointestinal symptoms(1 months, 3 months, 6 months, 12months)
- The change of CDAI(1 month, 3 months, 6months,12 months)
