What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Auto-FMT with Standard ProphylaxisOther

    Also called Cyclosporine(CsA), Methotrexate(MTX), Mycophenolate mofetil(MMF), Anti-thymocyte globulin(ATG)

    Autologous fecal microbiota capsules will be administered orally in divided doses post-engraftment with Standard prophylaxis regimen for GVHD after HSCT.

  • Standard ProphylaxisDrug

    Also called Cyclosporine(CsA), Methotrexate(MTX), Mycophenolate mofetil(MMF), Anti-thymocyte globulin(ATG)

    Standard prophylaxis regimen for GVHD after HSCT, including CsA,MTX, MMF and ATG.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Auto-FMT with Standard Prophylaxis and Standard Prophylaxis in people with Graft Versus Host Disease, Acute, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cumulative incidence of grade II-IV aGVHD (time frame: 100 days after HSCT.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Oct 2026.
