Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of treatment with EXE-346, a live biotherapeutic, which may reduce bowel movement frequency in patients with an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and lead to a higher quality of life.

Detailed Description

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

The aim of this study is to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of treatment with EXE-346 which may reduce bowel movement frequency in patients with an IPAA and lead to a higher quality of life. EXE-346 is a live biotherapeutic product containing a fixed proportion mixture of 8 individual bacterial strains.

The Phase 1b part of the study is an open label (OL), single-arm study to assess the safety of EXE-346 administered orally for up to 4 weeks.

The Phase 2 part of the study is a randomized, double-blinded study to assess the safety and efficacy of the same dose of EXE-346 administered orally for up to 8 weeks, compared with placebo. Subjects who complete the Phase 2 double-blinded part of the study will be eligible to participate in an optional open label extension phase to receive EXE-346 for up to 8 weeks.

1. Subject has had an IPAA for at least 6 months prior to screening.
2. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result at screening and must not be lactating and/or breastfeeding.
3. Subjects (female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with partners of childbearing potential) must agree to use proper contraceptive methods (see Section 13.2 for contraceptive guidance) to avoid pregnancy during the study. Nonchildbearing potential is defined as at least 6 weeks after a hysterectomy with or without surgical bilateral oophorectomy or postmenopausal (at least 12 months since natural amenorrhea).


1. Subjects must have completed the Phase 2 double-blinded part of the study and are willing to participate in the optional open-label extension phase.

Note: Subjects who discontinued study treatment in the Phase 2 double-blinded part but who have remained in the study for safety monitoring are eligible for continued safety monitoring in the optional open-label extension phase; however, study treatment will not be re-started in such subjects.
2. Subjects must understand the study procedures, the risks involved, and are willing to continue to adhere to the study visit/protocol schedule.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Subject has Crohn's-like disease of the pouch, as indicated by their most recent pouchoscopy during the 12 months prior to screening.
2. Subject has a stricture of the IPAA or afferent limb stricture, as indicated by their most recent pouchoscopy during the 12 months prior to screening.
