Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is safe and efficacious in the treatment of chronic active ulcerative colitis (UC) by conducting a randomised controlled trial

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study involves the assessment of the safety and efficacy of FMT in the treatment and induction of remission for patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. It is a double blind study with patients randomised in a 1:1 manner to either active or placebo therapy
