Clinical Trial Summary

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is characterized by sneezing, nasal congestion, nasal itching and nasal leakage and is caused by immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated reactions to inhaled allergens. Increasing evidence showed that gut microbiota could influence the development of AR, and we found that washed microbiota transplantation (WMT) could improve nasal symptoms in clinical practice. This clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of WMT for AR.


Clinical Trial Description

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is characterized by sneezing, nasal congestion, nasal itching and nasal leakage and is caused by immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated reactions to inhaled allergens. The prevalence of AR has been reported from 5% to 50% worldwide which is dependent on the method of diagnosis and age of participants studied. AR is often co-morbid with asthma and/or conjunctivitis, which affects patients' daily life and carries a huge economic burden. Increasing evidence showed that gut microbiota can influence the development of AR. Fecal Microbiota transplantation (FMT), the most classic way to treat diseases using gut microbiota, refers to the transplantation of functional microbiota in the feces of healthy people into the intestines of patients. It can reconstruct the overall gut microbiota of patients, thus treating gastrointestinal disease and external gastrointestinal diseases of patients. Washed microbiota transplantation (WMT), a new stage of FMT, is based on the automatic microfiltration machine (GenFMTer, Nanjing, China) and the following repeated centrifugation plus suspension with support from specific facilities. Compared with manual FMT, WMT can reduce the rate of adverseevents (such as fever, diarrhea, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting, etc.) without affecting the efficacy. In clinical practice, we found that WMT could significantly improve the nasal symptoms of AR. This clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of WMT for AR. ;
