简要总结
The objective of this trial is to assess if Fecal Microbiota Therapy (FMT) can reduce the risk of endoscopic recurrence of Crohn's disease (CD) in patients after intestinal resection. The specific outcomes of FMT to be examined are: 1) endoscopic appearance, 2) clinical symptoms, 3) safety and tolerability, and 4) microbial diversity. The research team hypothesizes that FMT will prevent establishment of "pro-inflammatory" microbiome after surgery, leading to a reduced probability of recurrence of macroscopic inflammation. It is also hypothesized that FMT will be safe and well-tolerated in these patients.

入选标准
- •(Patients):
- •Adults (age > 18)
- •Confirmed diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD), based on endoscopy, histology and imaging (confirmed by Study PI for each site)
- •Ileo-cecal resection or terminal ileal resection for CD within 30 days prior to enrollment
- •Resection margins & anastomosis free of active inflammation based on histology and surgical description (confirmed by Study PI for each site)
- •No therapy to prevent post-operative recurrence of CD. A 30-day wash-out period for anti- tumor necrosis factors (TNF)s, thiopurines, antibiotics will be required prior to enrollment.

结局指标
主要结局
Post-operative Endoscopic Recurrence
时间窗: within 6 months of ileo-cecal resection
Percentage of patients in each arm of the trial who develop endoscopic recurrence within 6 months of ileo-cecal resection. "Endoscopic recurrence" will be defined as a Rutgeert's score of greater than i2
