Clinical Trial Summary

ARO-DECAMP is a multi-centre, placebo-controlled, pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial for the microbial consortium Microbial Ecosystem Therapeutic-2. Non-intensive care unit patients ≥ 18 years old diagnosed with a bloodstream infection and receiving treatment for an antibiotic resistant organism will be included. Participants will be randomized to receive either MET-2 or placebo for 10 days. Recruitment rate and study intervention adherence will be evaluated for feasibility. Participants will be followed for 180 days, and biological samples will be collected periodically for clinical, ecological, and biomarker outcomes.


Clinical Trial Description

Reconstituting the perturbed microbiome is a novel therapeutic modality with the potential to decrease ARO colonization and infection and combat AMR without additional pressure for selection of further antimicrobial resistance. No trial has yet assessed the potential of a therapeutic microbial consortium for ARO decolonization and infection prevention after antibiotic treatment. The investigational product, Microbial Ecosystem Therapeutic-2 (MET-2), is a defined microbial community derived from healthy donor stool. MET capsules are orally administered mixtures of bacterial strains cultured from the stool of a healthy donor. This study is designed to determine if a trial of administration of MET-2 after antibiotic treatment for bloodstream infections is feasible. Stool and plasma biomarkers to assess the effects of the intervention will also be evaluated. ;
